his race isn't relevant to his character? What world do you live in? Changing his race or any character's race automatically changes the following...
style
culture
dialect/accent/diction
social outlook and social standing amongst peers
demographic they appeal to in the actual word
there are other things to consider as well; point is, it would be a completely different character. Also, they'd have to change the name of not only Spiderman, but his aunt and uncle, his calssmates, and completely revamp the type of women he's attracted to. If you didn't change those things, it would open up a huge can of worms concerning interracial dating and race dynamics in whole due to how much the character gets bullied.
And really, Peter Parker... does that sound like a black teen to you?
None of those things need be change if the director/writers don't want them to be. Your applying real world social dynamics to a comic book film adaption. I want to you to understand how farfetched you sound.

Again, I'll say wtf are you talking about?!
Here are some real world dynamics that are seen in the previous films, that are, according to you, irrelevant and far-fetched...
Alternative energy
sex/dating
death
finances/poverty
peer pressure and bullying
crime in general
domestic violence and other domesticated issues
politics
So no, it's not me who's applying real world social dynamics to a fictional environment, it's everyone who has ever been involved in the comic book industry since it's inception. Comics books in whole are based on real world circumstances so your entire assertion that these factors are irrelevant, is completely flawed and asinine.
Seriously, "Peter Parker" just SOUNDS like a nerdy white guy... Keep him that way.
"Luke Cage" sounds like a big, strong, black guy... Keep him that way.
"Steve Rogers", like "Harvey Dent" or "Wilson Fisk", could be either, tbh... Just as long as the guy can act the part. (and I'm a big Captain America fan)
If you make Spider-man black you're going to have to change so much about the story it's ridiculous, I mean Marwash hit the nail on the head. I don't want to see a completely altered Spider-man because everyone got this weird mentality of "We have the first black president, so why shouldn't we have the first black Captain America, and Spider-man and everything else"

maybe he is man enough to admit certain things about his race that dont fit right with characters. im not ashamed of admitting i wouldnt agree to storm being white in the next x-men film. she has always been black and thats her race since the begining. im not gonna say no storm would look better being white than black just to stand up for my race. this isnt a competition of race. its about the characters original appearance.
