Continuity mistake: On the spaceship, Peter is talking to Tony, and has his hair swept back with gel or similar. When he says "You can't be a friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man if there's no neighbourhood", we cut to Tony then back, and Peter now has a fringe with no gel. In later shots it's back how it was before.
Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
Ending / spoiler
Thanos pulls the final infinity stone from Vision's head, seemingly killing him. He completes the gauntlet - Thor throws his new axe Stormbreaker at Thanos' chest, seriously wounding him but not enough to stop him snapping his fingers. Half the universe is wiped from existence, with various Avengers fading to nothing, including Black Panther, Bucky, Drax, Groot, Mantis, Scarlet Witch, Spider-Man, Peter Quill, and Dr. Strange. Before he fades, Strange is asked by Tony Stark why he'd give away the time stone, and he says "it was the only way", presumably referring to the one in many millions of outcomes he'd foreseen where they eventually win, regardless of current losses.

Answer: "Doctor Strange" demonstrates that the Infinity Stones are useful in the most dire of situations, when Strange used the Time Stone to prevent Dormammu from taking over the Earth. It's also possible that some of the stones are indestructible.
