Plot Hole Question? (Spoiler)

[Jivebot]

How the heck does Peter know Martin Li was the bad guy after the cop's funeral? Peter was unconscious back with MJ.

Even Miles didn't actually see Marin and wouldn't likely have recognized him if he had.

Peter saw Li before he got knocked.

[Luwae]

Li was next to the truck powering the bad guys with his hand when Peter goes next to it, before he got knocked out.

The real plothole is how does Peter's landlord and the people that moved the stuff out of his apartment to the trash not know he is Spider-Man in the game? He gets evicted and losses alot of his stuff and he had all of his Spider-Man related notebooks and post its all talking about stuff and parts etc.

Hm... darn, you're right. I never thought about that before. He's got partially assembled Spider-Man gear all over that work desk, a giant wall covered in newspaper clippings about Spider-Man, open notebooks FULL of design schematics and blueprints related to his gear just strewn about, and probably spare parts for his suit in the closet.

I guess... you could fall back on the cliche of "it's New York City." New Yorkers are notoriously tolerant of crazy; just walk right past it. I guess the cleanup crew just dumped everything in bags without even bothering to look at it because "eh, just another gig Vinny. Whaddya say we get some pizza later?"

Li should have been in the helicopter like he originally was in the early E3 footage. That was a far better reveal.

My head canon is the landlord knows but just doesn't care because rent is due.

Okay I replayed the scene and saw him. He was just sandwhiched between two other generic maskless nobodies for such a short few seconds I didn't register that it was him.

They really should have zoomed in and lingered for at least another second. Or had Peter actually say "Mr. Li?" there to make it clearer.

As for the landlord...most of that was easily explained. Peter has SOME fame as the guy who photographed Spider-Man for the daily bugle for years so it makes sense he'd have a wall of the guy, and some assorted momentos/knick-knacks. Any spare costumes could be justified as cosplay/halloween outfits.

Not saying there isn't plenty of reason to be suspicious, but there are ways to explain most of that away.

The real plothole is why doesn't Peter sell that copy of Amazing Fantasy #15 he's got... even a 1 graded copy is like $46,000, with a recent 9.6 sold for 3.6 million. :p
