Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse [June 2nd 2023]

sometimes i really feel like a lot of hollywood is a lowkey money laundering scheme

you watch certain films, and even if you are generous with how the budget is spent, you wonder how many mils get skimmed off the top

i believe the animation costs for this film must be wild tho, just off the strength of having different art styles mesh in every scene/frame

Pixar is in RnD for 6 or seven years before they put it on screen.

Spiderverse and most others I think are 3 or 4 year endeavors

RUN THAT shyt BACK

I kind of felt that was the overall point of the film
When heroes get worn down and stop believing that they can save everyone is the point where they cease being special. Making them in ways just as jaded as the villains


Or something to that effect

Great film.
Only disliked how the villain was more of a plot point to have Hero Vs. hero fights (it's been Marvel's most overused comic plot since Civil War).
I have to find a link that lists all of the Spider cameos and easter eggs.

I didn’t get that from the Spot. I thought he was the weakest point too but mostly because Miguel’s hatred of Spidey wasn’t about him. The Spot didn’t even need to be in the movie. Villain incursions were happening because of the collider. Anyone of them could have just damaged another collider in Mumbattan.

Miguel had basically coped with the trauma by believing in canon so hard he built the Spider Society around it.

Miguel and Spot were both trying to make it something out of their trauma

I think the movie subtlety hinted at by Captain Stacey quitting the force and bypassing a canon event

Sony would be fools not to fast track a Miles Joint....and give Holland a guest appearance.

Spoiler

Donald Poppin up again as Prowler was so dope. Pretty sure he has a locked in contract behind the scenes to play him in the live action joint

This movie embarrasses Multiverse Of Madness to the point it's a joke.

Unfortunately…

Spoiler

That more than likely won’t happen as Donald Glover is already signed on to do a Spinoff Live Action Spiderverse film

Donald Glover to Star in Spider-Man Spin-off Hypno Hustler

THR has reported that Donald Glover will be both starring in and producing a film set in Sony's Spider-Man Universe.

Yup and frankly it's thanks to Sony owning the Spiderman rights that Miles' popularity skyrocketed.

When he was introduced as the new Spiderman in the Ultimate comics there was plenty of backlash. Dosent help that Marvel's writers were pretty tame with his stories.

In 2018 he was a major character in Spiderman Spiderman game and was thus introduced to a mainstream audience. The same year Into the Spiderverse came along and performed decently well at the box office, was hailed as the best Spiderman movie by the internet, gained an oscar and in the following years gained a large cult once it hit mainstream platforms.

In 2021 Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales was relased on PS4 and PS5. It was just a game made to make spiderman fans happy with the new PS5 but here's the thing... On the long run it became Sony's third best selling game since 1995 (source). A lot of PS5 new owners bought the game.
The same year Disney made an animated series for kids, Marvel's Spidey and His Amazing Friends, that features Peter, Miles and Gwen as Spiderman/woman. It's really popular among kids.


All this to say that Sony made a lof of smart choices regarding Miles and I really doubt that Marvel would have made it possible, they still want Peter to remain the same guy down on his luck and they are afraid to try new things with him. Miles's success is legit ten years in the making and I'm curious to see what they are planning to do with his live adaptation. Maybe they will introduce him at the end of Tom Holland's run.

MCU Peter jacked some of miles swag in the first place so thankfully sony was able to find another angle to bring Miles in with the spiderverse . They jacked ganke and made him Ned .

The MCU Spider-Mans are pretty good but they never truly captured the essence of the character the way these movies do, I think the best Holland performance was actually in Infinity War. Funny enough I think that's where Doctor Strange was at his best also.

The best live action joint for me is still Spider-Man 2 with Tobey.

 

[TheNatureBoy]

Just getting back from seeing this, movie does live up to the hype. All the different animation styles were

Glad I was able to avoid some of the surprises that had me

These movies really are like bringing a comic book to the big screen, so much kinetic energy during the action. In addition to being really funny and nailing the emotional moments.

Agree with most of this but I personally think Holland knocked it out the park in No Way Home. It was the first time I was genuinely impressed with his acting. Not like he was ever a bad actor or even mediocre but he some emotional beats in No Way Home and brought a presence that allowed him to not be upstaged by either Toby or Andrew or Cumberbatch.


Dr Strange was definitely at his best in Infinity War.

The best live action Spiderman is definitely still Spiderman 2. Raimi had a handle on the character of Peter that is unmatched.

Yup, even Peter's school is inspired from Miles's comics. And what really impressed me the most with Into The Spiderverse is that they really added some flavor to Miles and amped up his swag. The way he talk, dress, his love of art and graffiti... Even the hip hop nods, everything was modern and on point for a black teen, comic book Miles was too clean cut Marvel didn't have a clear vision for him. That's why I'm hoping Miles is introduced much later in Tom Holland's run, this way they could build a true mentor/disciple relationship between the two.

Do they light up purple like that? From the responses on TikTok you would think that they were unavailable.

Nah I meant the Jordan 1s spider morales had...I didn't noticed prowler morales' shoes

Good to see this movie crushing buildings after the first one went under the radar

Jesus fkn Christ

Ngl the first one slipped past me and I didn’t get to pick it up till about 3 months after it left theaters and hit streaming. But my god when I watched it I was hooked!
I wanted to see it but got too busy wrapped up in my wife’s final trimester of our first child on the way among a lot of other life shyt getting in the way.

 

[Spence]

The coolest thing about the two movies is that of course, the animation is off the charts and everything that comes with it, but the quiet scenes hit all the right beats. I can argue the best scenes in both movies are when Miles has his heart to heart with Rio in this one and when Jefferson tells Miles he loves him in the original near the end. They’re great scenes that wouldn’t feel out of place in any live action movie.

Them sitting upside down and having the skyline as the actual sky
I could easily freeze frame that and then frame it as a picture, that shyt was DOPE. AS. FK.
