Spider-Man Might Be Getting Kicked Out Of The Marvel Universe - But Why?

Looks like Disney are getting greedy The Spider-Man movie franchise has come a long way over the years with his squeaky clean "friendly neighbourhood" tag having been transformed into a Thanos-ass-kicking, Iron-Spider-wearing Avenger.

Do you just sit there and say nothing or do you have a little word through the peephole between the two seats? I know it's only a couple of inches but it is fairly annoying all the same, seeing as you haven't much space in the first place. Well this is what Dermot and Dave wanted to find out,...
