At least Spectacular is on Netflix now and will hopefully reach a big audience. I love the way it introduces all the villains as human characters right away so they're already established by the time they get their powers. Though I still think Eddie's heel turn was extremely forced and it's the one time I felt like the show was forcing a round peg into a square hole. Definitely the best Spidey television though. People never believe me when I tell them it's way better than the 90s cartoon because they have nostalgia goggles on.

I loved the 90s cartoon when I was a kid, but even at that age I knew it wasn't very good. That's bananas to me.

Miguel is so top-heavy I can only assume he ate another Spider-Man to get that way.

A lot of the backgrounds in that trailer looked half-sketched or out of focus, almost like watching a 3D shot without the glasses. Obviously it’s intentional, but I recall into the spiderverse having a little more detail than that. I haven’t seen it in a couple years now, so maybe it’s the same and I forgot.

So my biggest concern is that the conflict feels a little reheated? Like the first movie was “miles gets powers but can’t use them properly and fucks something up which makes his Spider-compatriots say he’s not ready until he has a realization about what it means to be Spider-Man, after which he saves the day” and a lot of that is echoed in the trailer. Miles wants to be a part of the Council of Spideys, Miguel clearly thinks he’s not ready, presumably after loving something up or wanting to gently caress something up, Miles has a realization about what it means to be Spider-Man, after which he saves the day. Even the notes of Gwen’s dialogue hit that same “I tried having a friend, he died, I don’t want to risk you dying too” thing. I trust that there will be more to it than that; Miguel appears to be the idealized version of what Miles wants to be, right down to speaking perfect Spanish that would presumably not earn a B and piss off his mom, and I assume Miles’ gently caress-up is slightly larger scale than crushing a USB drive and watching his Uncle die because Miles made his guard drop. I think it would be a little hilarious if Spiderverse ended up doing roughly the same plot as Flashpoint (loving with time to bring a parent back) because I have to imagine it will be wildly more successful than The Flash at making that story interesting Dinosaurs! posted:A lot of the backgrounds in that trailer looked half-sketched or out of focus, almost like watching a 3D shot without the glasses.

I think it’s because they’re going to so many different worlds rather than stickin in one. They’re going a lot more abstract with most of them because they’ve got a bajillion to get to.

There is nothing more SA than deciding that an upcoming movie is going to be garbage. Not going to look, but I bet there were similar posts before Into the Spider-Verse came out.

A lot of people apparently salty that Miguel calls the MCU "Earth-199999" in the trailer instead of the Feige-approved Earth-616 like in the MCU movies themselves. LOL I remember Iman Vellani (Ms Marvel) saying she argued with Kevin Feige about this. It is pretty funny in light of Feige himself complaining the Bryan Singer X-Men movie he worked on did not follow the comics completely.

It was David Thorpe who started the story who used the 616 number and while he was tempted to just use 666 because it was in regards to the universe that was just being a boat anchor to the rest of reality that number was too easy so he just subtracted 50 because -61.6 Farenheit is when the school in the coldest town in Siberia closed. Then Thorpe got fired before he could put in the book but Moore used it because he didn't like how DC never used bigger numbers for their alternate realities.

The first spider-verse is like my favorite comic book movie this first trailer is retreading a ton of great scenes from the first one so that gives me pause along with the dumb meme that they have done like 5 times at this point. There have also been comic book movies and spider-man like nonstop since then.

Aren’t there earlier versions of the Book of Revelation that use 616 instead of 666? I don’t doubt the author’s story.

It's very weird that 6 is used when the various 7s all around that part of the Bible are barely-concealed references to the Roman state. Maybe someone really hated Sixtus

Sequels were always going to be tricky in my mind. How many interesting arcs are there to take a spider-person other than death-guilt-resolve. I thought the comic thing where Doc Ock had CTE was pretty cool though.

I feel like the Spider-Rumble and Miguel drama will all be part of a plot that brings Miles down to a "no more Spider-Man" moment that he later recovers from in stellar fashion. Everything we've seen so far appears to be from the first third of the movie or so, in my eyes.

I think this one is gonna be about how you don’t have to measure yourself by anyone else to be a hero. They’re setting Miguel up to be “the Perfect Spider-Man” but it’s going to turn out he’s got his own flaws and that Miles doesn’t have to be the the Perfect Spider-Man to be a perfect Spider-Man or even a good man.

Because kevin feige and Disney at large are not exactly subtle about their intentions of making the MCU the de facto “real” marvel universe superseding the actual comics, and one of the multiverse MCU movies (either spidey 3 or strange 2) explicitly called the MCU earth 616 as a part of this.

I don't think Feige's trying to usurp anything, it just rolls off the tongue better than 1999999, and has been in Easter Eggs all over the dang place in the films.

The first place it showed up, as an easter egg, was way back in 2013 with Thor 2 even.
