Don't get me wrong, I agree with it, but I'm pretty sure that Infinity War's placement in 2018 is going to create difficulties when the Spider-Man sequel is released. No doubt the events of Infinity War are going to be mentioned in it, and it's also supposed to take place only one year after Homecoming. I really wish we had some way of moving Homecoming a year later in order to avoid any problems. We'll have to wait and see I guess, perhaps Infinity War will end up being in 2017 instead, although that would likely create issues with the Black Panther Prelude's depiction of Tony's "I Am Iron Man" statement being  "Ten Years Ago". it's starting to feel like whats gonna happen is either we're gonna have to wait and see exactly what the official timeline says, or end up having to just completely ignore television evidence The problem is not just that Homecoming contradicts the dates in the TV series, but also previous movies. Continuity in general seems weird, given that Peter had a black eye at the end of Civil War (specifically because of the battle at the airport) that he didn't have when Tony dropped him off at the beginning of Homecoming. Peter also claimed in Homecoming that he stole Captain America's shield and threw it back at him, even though, in Civil War, the shield actually got taken from Peter by Ant-Man, who then gave it back to Captain America.

I really like the movie, but it has a really poor handling of continuity. Yeah, it's likely that further films featuring Spider-Man will cause further issues, because Homecoming presenting itself as 2017, despite the fact that it should be in 2016, could offset all of the upcoming stuff with him and his school years. Let's hope that they are vague. The timeline will always just give the best possible answers from all the evidence we currently have, and right now, it's still overwhelmingly in 2016 despite the contradictory evidence. Thanks for recognising the reasoning!

 * spoilers*

In the new episode, one of the villain fathers has invented a mini-TV that broadcasts stuff from the future. At first it doesn't work, when he says "Show me LA in the future." and he hits it. And it is down with it. But then the scene focuses on it, with a VHS-type of quality on the said screen, and it shows LA's building all faling in destruction. Like an (earth)quake or something ... :P Will watch it soon. Look forward to it, quite getting into Runaways, more than I expected from the trailers.
