Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse

[Sumac]

Even outside of (allegedly) cringe humor and even more cringe BLM and trans trash signs (allegedly) being in the movie, this whole "choppy animation" thing looks ugly as **** to me. If I watch it, it will be few months from now on and only in small doses, since choppy ****ed up animation makes me queasy.

[ZariusTwo]

The whole movie has been spoiled online in places, I'll leave a synopsis here based on what I read

Spoiler:

The first twenty or so minutes aren't even about Miles, it focuses on Gwen and a typical day in her life being upturned by a battle with an 16th century Vulture, Gwen fights him alongside Miguel O'Hara and Jessica Drew, but her identity is exposed to her father George. Miguel offers Gwen a place in the Spider-Society and Gwen run away with them.

In between failing grades and clashing with his parents, Miles is also battling a villain who can cross dimensions called The Spot, a b-villain in the comics who also played a significant role in the 90s Spider-Man animated series. It is revealed The Spot was the creator of the irradiated Spider that bit Miles many years ago, but the Spot and the spider originated on another Earth in the multiverse.

Miles is recruited by Gwen into the Spider-Society, he meets up with Peter B Parker, who worked out his relationship with Mary Jane and got busy with her, producing an infant daughter, Mayday Parker.

Miles discovers from the society's leader Miguel O'Hara that he is an anomaly, he was never meant to receive his powers Now that he has his abilities, the web of life and destiny demands a sacrifice be made. All Spiders are fated to lose their most influential people in 'fixed' points in time (think Doctor Who), if they are prevented, incursions open up in the multiverse, threatening to unravel it.

Miles learns his father is destined to die and seeks to prevent it, which makes him an enemy of the entire Society. Miles uses a device to transport back to his home Earth, or so he thinks, but he finds himself on the Earth from where his Spider originated. Here, he finds the Prowler exists, but he is a variant of him.

Meanwhile, Gwen decides to try and find Miles before Miguel can, and recruits the original team from Into The Spider-Verse. The film ends at this point, to be continued

That sound horrible... the first one was on point but they just had to go and **** it up. I knew the trailers kept making Miguel look like the bad guy here.

[Sumac]

Sounds like a complex mess.

[Cowabung-Gal]

This movie sounds like The Bomb. The Box Office Bomb that is.

Sounds like a convoluted mess imo. Also, I don't recall "Spot" being in the 90s Spider-Man series, unless I'm mistaken, and I re-watched it some

He was, albeit for couple episodes only, if I remember right.

[ZariusTwo]

Yeah, Spot was in the show for a bit, but it was what he left behind (the time dilation accelerator) that contributed to a great deal of the show's dramatic beats and was almost responsible for the destruction of the multiverse in the Spider-Wars finale.

Seen a few clips online

Spoiler:

Andrew Garfield is in the film, but it's just stock footage from his first movie, it's when George Stacy dies, they use the death of George more than Uncle Ben to draw parallels between Miles, Peter B, and Gwen since both George and Miles' dad are police captains, they use panels of George's death from the original comics too.

Josh Keaton's Spectacular Spider-Man is there also, but his one line is to tell Miles he has to let someone die.

Spoiler:

The reason Miguel is so aware of the damage changing the web's 'canon' can do (canon is a word they specifically use) is because he altered the history of one universe himself, replacing a variant of Miguel that had been killed and raising his family as his own, which triggers an incursion that destroys the world and his family.

Are you serious? This is going to be a huge hit.

[Shark_Blade]

Not me knowing damn well Across The SpiderVerse Part 1 will end in a cliffhanger and still got upset when it ends in a cliffhanger. I want more it’s so good

[ZariusTwo]

Spoiler:

Donald Glover appears as a live-action Miles variant

I dunno. You really think parents (or at least the ones who are paying attention) are gonna take their kids to see a movie with a “Protect Trans Kids” poster in it?

I once had a conversation with a guy who had no idea that Blue’s Clues had a Pride segment with trans beavers that had scars from top surgery or that they even mentioned pansexuality. When I mentioned that to him, he was shocked and became outraged. He declared that there would be no more Blue’s Clues in his house and that his kids would have to play with something else.

Besides, there’s already a superhero fatigue among the audience, which is part of the reason why Marvel movies have been bombing lately. And since the movie has already been spoiled online, a lot of people are probably not even gonna bother watching this.

Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe this will be a hit regardless of the subliminal messaging in it. However, the media initially scoffed at the idea of boycotting Bud Light or Target, and well, look at the stock of those companies right now.

Regardless the motive and reason, still sucks they had to make Miguel the bad guy. 'We has a Hispanic Spider-Man pre-woke era, but he doesn't count, our woke Obama-inspired Spider-Man is better!'

Yeah, no. It's going to do fine.

Would they even notice it until someone points it out to them?
Sadly this **** has been normalized so much they might not even give a damn about this.

Movie was off the charts! I got more villains than I expected for my fix (including a very unexpected little cameo from Armadillo of all people), the final fight is pretty cool, especially when it goes vertical... Loads of little things and great fun! Loved it! Too bad we won't be seeing Morlun and his ilk any time soon with this creative team, though.

That's a good thing. The original Spider-Verse story is f*cking garbage and they're a big reason why.

Not if you consider that all the Spider-People have no one to fight in the third film, after Miguel inevitably comes around. What, they're all gonna gang up on Spot? Not a good look. Though there is a throwaway line near the end about a Sinister Six in 42... That has to be there for a reason.
