Factual error: When the bus is shown entering Washington, DC for the competition, the shot shows the bus traveling over the Arlington Memorial Bridge with the Lincoln Memorial in the background. That bridge is on the southwest side of the city. Since NYC is to the northeast of DC, this means that to get to that bridge and enter DC that way, the bus had to drive all the way around the city and then come back in from the opposite direction. Even if the bus driver made a mistake and missed the most direct route into the city from the north, there are dozens of other ways to get to the heart of the city without adding a good 45 minutes to an hour to the trip.
Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)
Directed by: Jon Watts
Starring: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Tom Holland, Martin Starr
Factual error: After Toomes and his crew lose the cleanup contract and they are back in their shop, on the table is a Coors "stubby" Banquet beer bottle. This bottle was released in 2013 and the scene takes place earlier than that.
Factual error: The ferry splits in half down the middle, enough so the water is flooding in dramatically as the split grows. There is no possible way that the two halves of the ferry could have remained afloat like that. It would have sunk immediately. Then, as Iron Man "welds" the two halves back together, the ferry is afloat at the same waterline as before the incident, certainly not feasible with all the water it took on.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: You're forgetting all the cars that the ferry lost. This would even out the weight to roughly what it was before.
Trivia: Jennifer Connelly voices the "suit lady", the AI in Spider-Man's suit. In real life she's married to Paul Bettany, who voiced Jarvis, the AI in Iron Man's suit, and who later played Vision.
Trivia: Principal Morita of the school is a descendent of Jim Morita, seen in action in Captain America: The First Avenger. He also has a photo of him in his office.
Trivia: When Spidey sits on a lamp post, behind him on a wall there is graffiti with the name "Bagley" on it - that's a reference to the Ultimate Spider-Man artist Mark Bagley.
Peter Parker: I'm sick of Mr. Stark treating me like a kid.
Ned Leeds: But you are a kid.
Peter Parker: Yeah. A kid who can stop a bus with his bare hands.
Ms. Warren: What are you doing here while the dance is going on?
Ned Leeds: Oh I was just um... Looking at... Porn.
Peter Parker: So, to become an Avenger, are there like trials or an interview?
Tony Stark: You just don't do anything I would do... And definitely don't do anything I wouldn't do. There's a little gray area in there and that's where you operate.
Question: After Toomes says to Peter "Really? Stark?" Did Liz say "so cool"?
Answer: Yes, we hear Liz say, "So cool" but since she's sitting behind Adrian we don't actually see her saying it.
Question: Why did Vulture spare Spider-Man at the end?
Answer: Several reasons, the Vulture isn't really a super villain, but a man trying to provide for his family after being cheated by the government. He also can make Peter Parker squirm with fear knowing that he's Spider-Man. What will he do with that knowledge.
Question: What did Liz mean when she told her dad not to grill Peter?
