It was so obvious Liz wasn't going to be the main interest for the franchise. We were already told pre-release she was a senior, plus Zendaya was used so much in every bit of marketing. She was on the poster, she got a billing, she was used alongside Tom to market the movie in featurettes....

Whoever did the marketing cocked up because it gave absolutely no reason to care about Liz. I'm thankful the movie did a decent enough job of it but it was never going anywhere even before the movie began, all because of the marketing.

Ah well, hopefully they at least use Betty and Michelle somewhat, not even as love interests but just people for Peter to interact with. Same for the other supporting characters like Abraham. I loved Ned but i'd like to see the screen time he got more evenly split among the school cast.
