Impossible to watch now due to the homophobia

Gosh, I've got to say I was shocked! Having tired of the MCU Iron-Spider-Man I thought I'd introduce this (remembering it as a timeless classic) to the kids in order to cleanse their memories of that awful Iron-Spider-Man...

Anyway, it started off ok (a beautifully done non-convoluted comic book origin) but then it got to the cage wrestling scene and it happened:-
"Nice outfit, did your HUSBAND make it for you?!"

You could hear a pin drop in our house before the crying began... "I don't understand papa" said young Poppy, "why couldn't that man have a husband? Why are they making a joke of it? Papa are you making us watch a homophobic movie? Why is Spider-Man homophobic? Isn't he... a... Hero?". And then the tears began with Poppy consoling her little brother Otis. I turned it off there and then.

I implore any right thinking parents to seriously consider ever showing this filth to their precious offspring. Just stick with Iron-Spider-Man. It isn't worth the trouble.

????LOL????

Even if you are dead on correct, that statement could have been said by a "BAD GUY". Bad Guys say bad and or rude statements. It happens.... in movies... and in the real world.

If all characters in movies were PC, no one would watch movies and HollyFreakingWeird would go out of business.
