So um, this is one of my favorite movies. Like, not of the year or anything - I mean all time.

:hubie:



It will pass, breh. I remember when the first Black Panther came out and this chic told me it's the best movie of all time.

:russ: folks jump out the window when they're excited about something. And that's okay.

I judge movies on how they make me feel. I don’t need a Scorsese seal of approval for something to be great/amazing to me - my top 10 fluctuates - and most of the movies there likely wouldn’t be on most, if anyone’s top 10, they are however movies I cherish - and this joint is there and I’ve watched it like 4 times now

when the Spot was giving his backstory in the start - we see the radioactive spider from earth 42 - still on earth 42 - and it was lurking around Miles

this was before it jumped to our Miles's universe. Now, one could argue that was just for dramatic effect or that it was going to ignore Miles - but seeing how deliberate this movie and it's predecessor have been with all their frames - I think the most likely explanation is that the spider was going to bite earth 42 Miles, thus he was going to be Spidey anyway. Not an anomaly. As previously stated - do not take Miguel at his word.

Black Panther is still my all time favorite comic book movie. This film surpassed The Dark Knight as my number two.

Ah well uhhhh…Yea no.

Only way I can see that is if she doesn't watch movies like that. I know quite a few women who don't know most of the classics and only go see anything if they're dragged.

shyt is depressing actually. :snoop:

To be fair and clear, @Uchiha God original statement was Across the Spider-Verse was one of his favorite movies of all time.

It's a false equivalency comparing (and dismissing) someone's ranking of a movie as their personal favorite to some broad declaring a movie is objectively the best movie of all time.

Penny Hardaway is my favorite NBA player of all time and 25 years later that hasn't changed... but that's not the same as saying Penny is objectively better than Jordan, Kareem, or Lebron.

I understand that distinction but what @Ziggiy and I were directly responding to was the assertion that a movie was the best of all time across the genres. I appreciate you emphasizing the original content for clarity but it had already branched off into another tangent.

I can't speak to @Neo The Resurrected ONE intentions.

No prob, i'm in agreement then; just wanted to make sure the tangent was decoupled from what originally prompted it.
