- Spider-man: Into the Spider-Verse somehow manages to encapsulate every aspect of Spider-man's cultural impact in 120 minutes. Needless to say, it's the best Spider-man movie ever.

"It always fits, eventually."
-Stan Lee
ZAP ARTS you’re god damn right it does
I loved the dual meaning of this line. Deep and funny at the same time.
NO REFUND OR RETURNS EVER
That was hands down my favourite Stan Lee cameo.
That cameo was exactly what we all needed in a recently post - Stan world
My favorite part was a very subtle moment of emotional impact.
When Peter B. Parker arrived at Aunt May's doorstep, he's not her Peter. By rights, they could be total strangers to one another. Different dimensions, different realities, different histories. And yet, without hesitation, she both accepts that her Peter is gone and accepts this new Peter into her heart without replacing the other. She simply cups his cheek and says "You look tired, dear." And he replies, "I am tired."
There is such genuine, pure emotion in those few seconds of film. An unconditional and open familial love that is just beyond any good description. It made me sob like a baby.
Bradley Sallee ikr this peter is the best bit about this movie
It also felt like a reference to Tobey Maguire's Spiderman because I'm pretty sure that quote is in one of his films too. That's what struck me about it.
There's also that part where Peni's mecha (I can't remember the name but I think it's SP//dr) dies, and Noir and Ham are right there, and Noir is just like "Come on, we have to go", I can't help but feel so much emotions just from that less than one minute section, but it's brilliant.
Not only that, in Peter B. Parker's world, his Aunt May is dead. So for him to see Aunt May again seemed very comforting and must have felt like a homecoming.
Fizzle Dimglow mine is when prowler talks to miles after he’s shot. He knows he’s dead and he just wants to comfort miles and apologize. It reminds me of my brother
"Let me guess. Your friends call you Doc Oc?"
"No. My friends call me Liv. My enemies call me Doc Oc."
Aunt May: "Oh great. It's Liv."

I'm really tired of realistic CGI in 3D animated movies. I want more experimental stuff like this one. This movie is a comic book come to life, I don't care how accurate the light effects are or how many wrinkles I can see.
Jared Hall I definitely agree with you man, being experimental like this movie should be a thing😌
I agree. It's very similar with video games. I love games with unique styles such as Wind Waker, Yoshi's Woolly World, Kirby's Epic Yarn, etc. But most games are just the same realistic garbage artsyles
Having the cartoonish style lets you do so much more. The stuff they do in the third act of of the movie would never have been successful in a realistic style.
Agree I was actually very disappointed in the Lion along trailer after seeing how bland the colors were for the sake of being realistic when compared to the 2D version. It shouldn’t be about realism it should be about how you can use the visuals to create emotions and tell a story.
@@rawrisiloveuindinify
The 2D Lion King is one of the most realistic animated Disney film though.
As a film major with no personal connection to Spiderman at all, I can say that this was one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life.
As a huge spider-dork, this comment makes me extremely emotional!
Diamond Axe Studios Music wtf how? I thought it was a total disappointment
@@carlcarlson3958 The characters were phenomenal, the performances were top notch, the plot was simple yet effective, I was frequently laughing out loud, the soundtrack was killer, and the animation absolutely stole the show. Honestly I'd say the movie is worth it just for the animation and art style alone. It gave me everything I wanted Md more
Diamond Axe Studios Music tbh I only enjoyed the animation and voice acting but I didint feel connected to any of the characters, the passing felt way too quick, soundtrack was acceptable, jokes were as you’d expect from a kids movie, and I just didint feel satisfied with the ending since I knew before watching that they would defeat the bad guy and it’s a happily ever after after, I’d give the movie a total of a 5/10 just a movie, the animation was what really got me to stay and watch since it was a 10/10
@@carlcarlson3958 Did you come here just to be different than everyone else? The movie was just under 2 hours long not nearly enough time to fully flesh out the many "main" characters yet it still did a brilliant job anyways. The jokes were absolutely hilarious and that's straight opinion anyways. You came to a video titled "Spider-Verse - The Ultimate Spider-Man Movie" and seem to be baffled that someone may have thought it was, in fact, their favorite Spiderman movie or favorite movie overall.
Imagine trying to solve a Rubik's cube in the Noir universe
What do you mean? It can be scrambled and still look correct, therefore it's always solved
They actually make Rubik's Cubes where each side is a different shade of grade scaling from dark grey to light grey......and they're annoying as hell to solve cause sometimes the shades blend into each other lol
'The Color Out Of Space' is a surprisingly good analogue to your conundrum.
Exactly
gud one but not really it jus be different shades of black to grey to white

It's small, but... The stickers.
Spider man flings around town leaving a calling card- Something where no person will ever be able to find them. All over town, on gargoyles, on top of water towers, in the depths of a sewer... Just as a signature.
'Hey. I was here. Congrats on finding this.'
Whether it be some starry eye child seeing it up high, someone looking around on top of a building in the middle of night, perhaps some kids down in the sewers; They'll see these stickers and know someone was here. Spiderman was.
And that idea... Is fucking amazing.
MerethValera Yo, that’s a great take. Childhood me would be absolutely stoked to find one of those!
Its also used by graffitos who dont wanna get arrested by overzealous cops. Hahaha theyre all over ny.
He's tagging up. Like his uncle. His uncle was a criminal but... he still loves him.
did he leave photo ops around the city like in ps4 Spiderman?
They made Miles' personality resemble the root of the whole tagging culture, and it blended so well on the narrative of being the new Spider-man.
my favorite part?
that’s all folks
IS HE ALLOWED TO SAY THAT? LIKE... LEGALLY?
lol i was the only one laughing at this joke in the theater

Favorite part:
"Your shoe's untied"
"I know, it's a choice."
Loved this movie to pieces.
No its
Miles: Yeah I'm aware it's a choice.
I actually lived that moment in the fourth grade
I loved how Peter B Parker is so lazy he shoots a web to ring a doorbell
What I love about that is that it kind of speaks to a slacker image in Miles which is what fully keeps him from embracing being Spider-man. A big part of this movie is about him failing to live up to his potential because of the narrow definitions that are given to him, and the shoes are reflective of that.
But check out the leap of faith scene. His shoes are tied. Because he's found a way to realize his potential in a way that's uniquely him. That entire scene is about him owning the identity of Spider-man and believing he can do it, and do it his way.
God this movie was brilliant.
"You can wear the mask"
I absolutely adore Miles and every scene he's in but I really wish more people talked about one moment in the film with Gwen and Peter that hit me really, really hard-I didn't even notice it the first time around.
When Peter spots MJ and tries to go talk to her, Gwen tells him "Trust me, I've been there. You've gotta move on, buddy." And it takes a minute to settle in, but you realize that she's talking about *him.*
My heart kinda broke once I got it.

"Him" refering to the peter parker of her universe who turned himself into the lizard?

_Who pointed first?!_
From a comedic stand point, i really liked when Spider-Noir said he'd a lit match until it burned almost completely just to feel something, ANYTHING...and then when "the wind" blows off the match he just lets an "Aww..." of extreme dissapointment
From the "feels" standpoint, i felt horrible when in the supercollider final fight Kingkin's family is materialized for just long enough for them to re-create the very same scene that ultimately led to their deaths. That's just awful, man.
Can we all just appreciate this film's use of the greatest post-credits scene in any Marvel film?

The Prowler is definitely my favorite overall part of the movie. They really took a mediocre villain and turned him into a terrifying yet sympathetic character.
Aaron in the movie is LEAGUES better than Aaron in the comics. He actually cares about Miles. He wants Miles to be the best he can be. He's a legitimately good person when he's not running around as the Prowler.
When he IS running around as the Prowler, he's absolutely terrifying. Prowler's audio aesthetic is, in my opinion, the best in the movie. No other character's theme music stood out as much as Prowler's did, and that's part of why he's as terrifying as he is. The howling screech noise in his theme music was phenomenal. It made the audience feel the same anxiety and fear that Miles felt when he was being stalked by the Prowler. Not only that, but it gave us a bit of a taste of what Spidey-Sense is like. In the Aunt May house fight scene, when Miles is freaking out and telling the rest of the crew about Aaron being the Prowler, Prowler's theme is playing quietly in the background. It tells us that there's danger coming, just like spidey-sense would.
Owen Sanders I agree with everything you said.
Prowler was the first villain from a comic book movie that actually really terrified me.
My heart was pumping, adrenaline up, whenever he was in screen.
That fucking horn, chills to this day. Characters get their own scores but I've never seen (or heard) just a simple sound effect be so... effective in making a character even more iconic and unforgettable.
@@millsrome IIRC it was based on an elephants trumpeting sound
@@bobshnitzel2608 Yeah and it's brilliant and super effective
as someone who saw and heard a lot of people give this movie flak because it was animated the line from spider-ham "what's wrong with cartoons" was one of the most hell ya moments i had watching this movie :P
s4p3rlip0p37 people gave this movie flak for being animated? WHY? Animated comic book movies are almost always amazing, and this one is a very unique and effort-filled kind of animation to boot.
This movie would NOT have worked if it wasn't animated. If it was live action the CGI would be so bad. Giving all the spider people a different look based on dimension would not have worked, SpiderNoir would look awful, King Pin wouldn't have been as intimidating(personally I love that he takes up the whole screen), and turning Mile's turning invisible would be kinda weird. The only thing you MIGHT be able to keep from this movie in live action is the score.
@@witchBoi_Connor Some people just straight up will not watch animated things. I have no idea why but they assume it's "childish" without even watching it first. It's very stupid and I don't understand it.
@@gabrielledickinson4530 Those people can never enjoy anything, and probably have their lives dictated by what is viewed as "childish" and what isn't, when in reality the only thing that isn't childish to anyone is what they deem as such. I mean, if you're an adult then you decide what you want to watch - so long as it doesn't bother anyone else.
animation is simply a type of medium, it's not a genre, gosh🤦🏻♀️
Why does no one ever mention Steve Ditko also dying in 2018? Like for true Spider-Man fans that was as upsetting as Stan Lee dying, in fact to all people it should be as it was another life ending. The guy worked so hard and he’s getting so little recognition for his creation
IrRegular R.I.P Stan Ditko. I bet him and Stan were best friends. They will be honored.
I am a spidey fan and i know His co owner Steve dikto died
There was a tribute to both Stan Lee and Steve Ditko before the credits. I was really happy to see both mentioned there and not just Lee.
The Purple Momasaur. Yeah, specifically them two did not get along well. Not at all.
@@awormnamedscoobis3419 Apparently Steve & Stan weren't even on talking terms when he left Marvel. J.Jonah Jameson is supposed to be based off of Stan and Parker, Ditko. So that should tell you something about their relationship.
This movie is what happens when Sony finally realizes "Hey! Maybe instead of trying to impress our shareholders and make poorly thought out demands to the creative team mid-production, how about we just trust the talent we hired to make a good movie?!".
Movie made 35 million opening weekend. On the same level as Wrinkle in Time. Only time will tell if this movie was a good idea
@@Malthizar They picked a spectacularly bad time to release it. And yet it did amazingly well for a movie released so near Christmas, breaking the December record for an animated film. Ultimately, I think it'll be fine.
And no, those weren't deliberate, but when I realized what I had wrote, I found it too appropriate to change.
Seriously. The drastic leap in the quality of Sony animation, visuals and script, is stunning.
@BK Funny thing, that bad idea that fatcats thought up created a scenario brimming with story potential and I took it HARD.
Don't praise them until after the sequels are out.
Remember they tend to tamper more in sequels.
See Spiderman 3 and Amazing Spiderman 2...
It's tough to say any one part is my favorite since the entire movie is on that 12/10 shit, but a standout moment that I barely see anyone talk about was when Jefferson talks to Miles from behind the door of his dorm when Miles was webbed up by Peter, right before he figured things out. The entire speech just smacked me in my emotions, damn near got me all weepy-eyed in the theater. The delivery was on point too, the barely repressed emotions of dealing with his brother's death and how he feels his son is drifting away really came through, it's like he thought this was his last chance to be real with his kid. But like I said, that's just one standout moment, along with pretty much the entire movie. Just something that stuck with me a little, that's all.
EDIT: Oh my god and the Stan Lee cameo got everyone in the theater choked up bad. It really says something that out of all the great cameos he's done, that one is my favorite.
keybladeboy YESSSSS!!! That was a great scene. Also for me, Miles never actually wanted to say “i love you dad” before this very scene but when he now actually wants to say it so loud his mouth is webbed up and he couldnt say it. This is just my take though. Dunno if the movie was trying to portray the same feeling or not.
keybladeboy duude same, that scene make me teary n stuff
keybladeboy the second i saw that scene i knew that this movie would be my new #1 favorite movie of all time
Same. That scene was the most emotional to me. Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps. The dialogue, the delivery, it's just so perfect.
i literally teared up during that scene, it hit so close to home! I've never felt comfortable expressing myself to my parents, and seeing a father, uncomfortably pouring his heart out to his son really resonated with me. I just wanna watch this movie with my Dad, I think he would love it, but I want him to understand that sometime I feel like Miles, afraid of the consequences of opening up.
Took my niece to see this and we left she was smiling ear to ear
I asked if she liked it that much
She said "he looks like me and now I can be spiderman too"
I legitimately “awwww’d” at that lmao
That is the cutest thing i've ever heard ong
The leap of faith scene gave me goosebump.
Since watching it the first time in context, every time I watch it I tear up. It's literally a culmination of everything Miles had been through and even though he needed more of a push, he made it. I can't help but fist pump when his comic lands.
What song was used during that scene?
@@Starkimonde whats Up danger

that scene was fucking awesome

@@manidavis4126 all of the parts*
Unlike the Lion King remake, this movie embraces the abstract part of animation
It look even better in 3D
I loved that we got such a great introduction of Miles into pop culture. I hope that after this film people will stop thinking of him as some wanna-be Spider-man and see him as his own special character who also embodies all that Spider-man stands for. 10/10
In the comics he's pretty much Peter, but this movie has sort of broken that.
@@bottlecap7533 that's what I like about this movie and an aspect I like about Spiderman PS4. He's not a copy and paste of Peter Parker
@Corvo@AZ The movie wants to break exactly this kind of thinking
Sai Ashwin well they won’t penis the True Spider-man
Miss Misery yes their is . It’s peter Parker
The fact that Spider-Ham is just dripping wet in his introduction, and it literally goes nowhere. it's not like a Chekhovs Gun where it's like 'oh haha he's wet all the time! that's his bit' no. he's just. wet. in that one scene where he's introduced. and at no other point in the movie.
Also that they just leave it entirely up to imagination how on earth he got that wet. god that whole bit is just stunning.
I get the feeling that's just something John Mulaney said and they kept it.
Well, he washed his hands
@@matti.8465 I wouldn't be surprised.
Well, he's a pig. I figured he licked or washed himself after being in some sort of fight or mud
@@matti.8465 probably
The biggest accomplishment of this movie is probably that I now want a movie for each of these Spider people. Thats how interesting they all were.
Yourson Isold So, uh, wanna watch another Original Spider-man Peter Parker movie? Because there’s uh 6 of them out right now, and like 3 shows about it, XD
@@g3nz3n I'm looking forward to Far From Home. So yeah, I guess.
Yourson Isold Oh yea true, can’t wait to see our Peter back from the dead, tho I do know that Far from Home is before Infinity War.
S Y N C H R O But far from home is set after infinity war, isn’t it?
Samuel Turner I’m not sure anymore o.O
Another thing we should note is the line “Your shoe’s untied” it’s up to interpretation if it actually means something but imo I think it’s supposed to resemble Miles tripping on himself and that he chooses to do so. He wants to stay in his comfortable area and doesn’t want to do something new as he doesn’t believe he can do it. But in actuality he can, he just needs to choose to tie that shoe and trust in himself.
Ree. It’s like from Shaun of the Dead where everyone keeps pointing out, “You got red on ya”, and it’s not a coincidence as they reference the movie.
Theres so much good symbolosm like that in the movie. Like the one thing that most people would only recognize as a gag, where miles went up a high building to jump off, only to go back down and choose a smaller building. It was funny, yeah, but it was also crucial in that it symbolized miles' apprehension toward taking that "leap of faith." When he finally REALLY becomes spiderman by jumping from the side of the skyscraper, it showed just how far he had gone to become a real hero and a real adult. God theres just so much more great stuff about this movie than "it looked good and was fun," and Im glad people see that.
Ghetto Geek the movie as a whole excels in almost everything a comic book movie should be, bring up references but not too much, use jokes but don’t sacrifice the tone, give a good motivation for the villain as well as keep them menacing, and make us care.
oh my god
Its how some kids in nyc wear their sneakers - the dedication to authenticity is also such a great quality of the movie.
Miles’s dad talking to him through the dorm door after uncle Aaron died made me cry so much I love this movie

Soumyadeep Genius exactly mate. Exactly
“I love you miles.”
“You dont have to say it back though.”
Hah, animation student here!, sharing some fun facts about Spiderverse! In some interviews I've read, the 'choppy' feeling some observe while watching is because they animated the majority of the movie on what we in the biz call "2s" -- The equivalent of one new movement every other frame (So there's a frame of nothing in between each movement) and did some of the more smoother-looking action on "1s" -- New movement every frame, which is why it's got that noticeable pop of difference. Typically 1s are used in 3D animation and you'll see traditional animators employing 2s and 3s (New motion every 3 frames) so it's very, very cool to see it all blended together in this gorgeous movie working in tandem! That concludes my nerd lesson. Happy New Year!
Maddie Machienne cool.
While it did bother me a bit it never really was problem.
That’s for telling me that
THAT'S SO COOL, MAN
What's more, sometimes characters only move in 2s while the background still moves in 1s. They even had Peter and Miles in (mostly) alternating 2s as they escaped the lab in the woods, until they started swinging in sync and they lined up again, to show that they weren't on the same page until then. This movie uses so many subtle yet incredibly effective storytelling techniques that are littered all over the place, I love it.
Hopefully this becomes more popular
@maddie machienne Hey thanks for explaining it, have you seen The dragon prince on Netflix? I love it but the movement, specially in the first season, was too jumpy, it actually made lots of people stop watching. Do you know what kind of animation they used?
Not just Stan Lee, Steve Ditko also died this year and was as important as Stan to make the hero what he is today.
You're absolutely right. His personal beliefs didn't necessarily tie too closely into what Spider-Man eventually became, but we wouldn't have Spider-Man without him, either.
O saboroso M&M and are Best Friends..
It was good they paid respect to him in the credits too
Spider-Man is Ditkos creation. Not Stan Lees. So yeah, his views is integral to the character.
@@christianbjorck816 {citation needed}
I absolutely loved it, but the stan lee cameo hit me like a punch in the gut.
I met him at a comicon once, i was walking past and some enforcer was telling a line that it was past the sighning time, stan said "excuse me young man but these people have waited so long in line, ill stay here all night to meet each one if I have to"
I took a step over and said "sorry Mr.Lee I know I'm not in line but im a huge spiderman fan however with what you just said you are my hero"
He shook my hand and said "thank you my friend, that means alot to me" and off I went so I didn't hold up the line.
Than when he delivered his spidervers line that moment came back and ooof.. like a punchin the gut but right in the feels.
Aaaaah luckyyy he’s such a great guy ;w;
Stan Lee was too good, a once in a lifetime man.
spoiler smh. you ruined the moment now it won't punch me in the gut like it did you
@Sigma nope, a few gave me looks because they thought I was trying to cut in for an autograph.
@@daymi7300 lol it may have been a personal thing for me, but I didn't spoil what was said :P
I gotta give praise to prowler's theme, specially in his first chase sequence with Miles. It's such a riveting piece, and matches the character perfectly, specially the "whirring" which sounds like a horrifying creature's roar, and made me think for a while that it was Prowler making those noises, as if he himself was an always chasing predator, hunting Miles whenever he was at the scene
I’ve read that the Prowler whirr is actually a remixed elephant
And the fact that the blaring sound becomes a part of the theatrical version of "Whats up Danger", just *Chef's Kiss*
"Can you take this outside?"
"We don't pick the ballroom, we just dance."
When Miles was at Uncle Aaron's and they were going back and forth practicing the shoulder touch and were like,"Hey..." 😂
I cringed but in a good way. Normally when I cringe like that I stop liking a thing. This is likely the first time it made me like it more
Autymn Maas It’s like “The Office”. It’s funny because it’s cringy
??? How was that scene cringey in anyway? I think people throw around cringe so much now a days, it’s not cringe.
@@Klyptic They said it made them cringe, which usually means to shrink or recoil back. Something can make you cringe without being cringy. You used the word *cringey* , which means "causing feelings of embarrassment or awkwardness." which in the case of the scene was true for some or many people, including me. It was funny but embarrassing.
@@Klyptic So really, not trying to be mean, but I think you took it as them calling it cringey which is actually the correct and perfect word for the scene, but that doesn't mean the scene was bad.
The death of spider Man and public reaction and handling of it was amazing. We seen death of Superman but seeing the death spider Man and going public of who he is was touching
That gathering at the church for peter was stright out of the Ultimate Spider-Man comics. I got goosebumps when i saw that on screen
Everyone watching their phones and the reactions of their faces was heart breaking. It reminded me of how my school was when Stan Lee died ironically.
Same, I really liked that bit.
One of my favorite parts is how they animate Miles at 12 fps at the beginning of the movie and by the time he takes the leap of faith, he's being animated at 24 fps
I loved the music that played every time Prowler was on screen. It made him feel more like a monster from a horror movie rather than a villain from a super hero movie. Because, a super villain you can fight, and beat. But a horror movie monster, you either run your ass off, or die. And that was the exact feeling I had whenever Prowler appeared, and that terror inducing music washed over the scene like the chills in my spine.
And the tension of seeing him inches from Miles' invisible face right before the big reveal, made my blood run cold as ice. And while I was busy trying to pick my jaw off the floor, my 9 year old son exclaimed "That's so cool!".
I love the Prowler's music when he's on screen, he really makes you anxious when he shows up
That one jumpscare from the Prowler man...
*VWOOOOOOm*
The music is definitely weird. I always thought he was the one screaming or making those noises while on screen.
Wooooungg
The music and sound effects attached to the prowler makes him actually terrifying and I loved it
when he opens a window and the window opening sound keeps coming back in the music..... NNNGGGGHHH I LOVE THIS MOVIE
Yeah, Prowler score sounds like straight out from a horror movie.
Exactly. I'm a horror movie buff and yet a cartoon actually made me panicked. The genre just suddenly cuts to horror, man
Prowler enters *VVWWOOOUUUGGGNNNHHHH

You’re totally right

@@shrimpfriedstudios ikr! That was my reaction when I first noticed
Hey! Stop pointing!
How crazy that in the same year we lost both original creators of Spider-Man, Ditko and Lee, we also watched Peter Parker die on the big screen...TWICE. It's been an emotional roller coaster year for Spidey, but between Avengers, Spider-Man PS4, and Spider-Verse, it's also been one of the best years.
Spider-Man dies like 5 times in spider-verse so I’d say Spidey has died more than twice this year.
Plus Infinity War finally gave us a passable teen Peter we haven't seen well portrayed since Spectacular and him as an ensemble character like if Ultimate didn't Deadpoolify him.
I need the creators of Spiderverse to do Batman Beyond.
Oof! YES!
Bat-Man: Into the Beyond-Verse
YES
Or Static
What about static shock?
I don’t think I’ve ever related to a Spider-Man harder than Peter B. Parker and the line he says before he goes home “How do I know I’m not gonna mess it up again?” Hits me the hardest of all, the way he grabs onto Miles, almost desperate for someone to tell him that he’s ready again, much like Miles was before and to be told that it’s “a leap of faith” is beautiful, nobody knows if he’s ready, not even himself. The unspoken parallels between Peter and Miles is wonderfully done, the fact that age and ability wise they’re polar opposites, yet both are learning to be Spider-Man, one for the first time and another for the second, even if Peter doesn’t realise it, he’s still being taught so much and goes through a fantastic arc in this film. THIS FILM FUCK, I’m so happy it exists, the studio that brought us the goddamn Emoji movie has created the best Spider-Man movie and best comic book movie since The Dark Knight and the fact that it’s getting crushed by mediocrity like Aquaman is a damn shame.
Amen!!!
Honesty my favorite part of this movie is when miles is trapped in his chair and his dad stops by. I honestly thought that the dad would either try to barge in and miles would some how gain control of his powers right there and it would be a comedic thing. But it was somber and really moving, while the dad respected his son’s boundaries, while miles obviously wanted to talk and to see his father couldn’t because he wasn’t ready to face him yet. It was a good scene
I just love how when miles put on the suit and is being himself he moves like his uncle did instead of trying to be like one of the spiders
Thats cool. Could u give an example?
RAZZA if I understand Elijah correctly, I’d say the scene where miles takes his literal leap of faith and the montage of him swinging after. He runs on top of the trucks cargo and the bus fluidly while transitioning from web swinging to the free running
@@the_boi1175 there's so many small details in that scene that make it my favorite scene in the movie. When he jumps of the glass, the reason is breaks is because he is still scared. He doesn't want to jump, but he does it because he HAS to. When he's free running it's because he's still not as experienced as Peter when it comes to using the web shooters. Assuming this movie gets a sequel we may see Miles move in a very different way as he'll be more experienced.
@@chefcinnabutterthe glass breaking off the jump, the fluidity of his movements, his sneakers squeaking as he runs against the glass, a master and student in the same moment, such a godly scene
*in alchemax*
Random scientist: SPIDERMANNN?
Peter Parker: you know that’s funny, I get that a lot
My favourite song was hands down Spidey Bells
The fact that Illumination's Grinch made twice as much as Spiderverse during their opening weekends, and the fact that Mary Poppins Returns, Aquaman and Bumblebee come out this month too really lower the chances of seeing a sequel. If this movie fails because of all of that, then society is fucking doomed. We should reward creativity, not the same lazy rehash. Please go see Spiderverse multiple times people! I know I will!
truly sad cause this was a stunning movie
luckily, they confirmed a sequel and a spinoff. they already have names attached : )
While this movie hasn't been making spectacular box office, it *is* making money--the budget was low enough that it's already in the black with worldwide returns.
(I feel really sorry for Transformers fans, because it looks like Bumblebee is a genuine flop, despite being by near-universal assessment the best Transformers movie. I guess the problem is that the target audience of people who really want to see a Transformers movie that is also a good movie is quite small.)
Thats a pretty fatalistic point of view
Shut yo fucking stupid ass up Aquaman nor any other movie is at fault for this movie not being a financial success movie has already close too $200 Mili worldwide so shut yo goofy ass up
As a black kid I wanted to be Spider-Man so bad!! When we as fans got to meet Miles I almost cried, finally a spider-man that looked like me; that had some of the same experiences out of the suit that I did! This movie was perfect and it inspired me to buy a Miles cosplay!
Generally I'm a loyalist more to "norm" than to the thought of movies being "inclusive" to every type of person out there,but a movie centering around Miles Morales is exactly what everyone deserved. Not once did we have an industry blockbuster with a well-renown name such as "spider-man" feature the lead role played by a minority. This movie is what inclusion is about and I NEED a sequel.
I never really felt that way with Spider-Man to me peter was always really relatable even with me being Puerto Rican, but when miles came out I felt myself resonate with him way more it’s like something I didn’t realize I wanted.
Miles is easily the best spider Man in my opinion. He's a really likeable kid.
Brandon Ortiz I feel you!! It was like finding out your favorite food is healthy. I was gonna eat it anyway but now? Now I’m all in!
I felt the same way when I discovered Spiderman 2099, back in 92

People keep forgetting Steve Ditko also died this year. He was the co-creator of Spider-Man, if you didn’t know. I’m only mentioning this cause MB forgot to bring him up, which is kinda inexcusable when you’re bringing up deaths and tragedies related to the character. I mean, how could you forget when they paid tribute to both at the end of the credits? I’m just bothered by it, that’s all.
Kevin Rivera I could’ve sworn it was last year, but it is sad that his death seemed like a footnote outside of the comics fandom.
@@magnusprime962 Ditko passed during the summer.
I'm extremely bothered by this neglect. I get that Ditko's reclusive nature made his death easier to fall under everybody's radar, but damn... that's why it's important to acknowledge it even more diligently.
How sad even in death he was completely overshadowed by Stan Lee
Wasn't he kinda racist? Or am I confusing it with someone else?
I've only known Peni Parker for a short period of time, but I already have a burning desire to protect her like I would protect a daughter of my own.
She's so cute! I just wanna hug her! :D
Agreed.
The call to protect the Loli
I'm still very sad she lost a big memory of her father in the movie
I heard that her comics have her less as a "haha, anime are we right, guys?" joke and more of a serious character.
Almost every comment in this thread is praising a completely different moment in the movie with genuine fervor, which speaks volumes for how good this movie is.
Honestly. I'm what's known as the farthest possible thing from a Spiderman fan. The only movie I've watched of Spiderman is one I vaguely remember seeing when I was six years old, and my dad only took me there because we had free tickets. I don't even remember who the villain was (I remember there was a dark spiderman there, so it was probably Venom) and I remember coming out of the movie hall a completely unimpressed six-year-old (and I was pretty easy to please back then, so the film must have been really bad lol).
But this movie...it took my breath away. Despite me having reservations about whether it was worth my time, me remembering very few of the names of spiderman heroes and villains and NONE of the backstories; hell, I wasn't even sure if the original spiderman's name was Peter A. Parker, Peter B. Parker or just Peter Parker (guys I'm sorry please don't crucify my utter lack of knowledge)...but despite everything, the movie still worked its magic.
The animation and art was incredible. The music was eargasmic. The story, plot and characters sucked me in, and I'm sure I had a big smile on my face during all the high points of the movie, and teared up for all the emotional bits.
I also really appreciated how despite being made on such an impressive scale, the film itself was humble. It had no "Only true Spiderman fans will be able to truly understand this scene/reference/joke" periods, but at the same time it never went into unnecessary detail.
I began the movie expecting my lack of knowledge of the franchise to push me away from the experience...but instead I felt the movie pull me into its embrace. This is one movie which I think could still make me feel the same way, even if I came back to watch it again and again.
I know this comment is, as of writing, ten months old. But I want to say as someone who is an AVID Spider-Man fan boy ever since I watched the ok Animated series in the 90s, it means the world to me to know that someone who barely knows anything about Spider-Man - you probably saw Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 3 - could be so drawn in for the movie and feel accepted by it, like there were details in the background that fans would get but it's never HIGHLIGHTED.
Hell, your comment highlighting that the characters sucked you in is a great contrast to Spider-Man 3, who had trouble just juggling three villains, one Spider-Man and mostly three recurring supporting cast members. By contrast, this movie starts from nothing, has SIX villains, FIVE Spider-People and one Spider-Ham, five or six bigger recurring characters if you count Stan Lee's cameo, debatably more, and it has to tell an origin story on top of that. And yet it's the movie that packs more onto it's plate, that took it's time to ask "How do we make this look" "How do we make this act" "How do we make this sound" that becomes one of the most acclaimed animated and Super Hero films of all time - it sits on IMDB below The Dark Knight for Superheroes, and Spirited Away and The Lion King for animated films.
Really the biggest contrast is near the beginning of this film. The goofy dance Spider-Man does? That was done by Peter Parker in Spider-Man 3. Back then it was a groan moment. Here? It's a joke that to my memory made most audiences laugh out loud, me most of all.
Oh, and just in case any comic warrior comes to bully you over the names, it's just Peter Parker usually. The A and B is used by this movie for the contrasting of the two non-Noir Peter Parkers. Because Peter A is on his A game in his prime, while Peter B is Burned out. That's not even a comic reference... the attention to detail in this movie is fantastic.
I really like how miles turning point music starts with his uncles prowler music played with major instead of minor tones
Now all Sony's gotta do is bring back spectacular spiderman and I'll be complete.

@@mo0man Interesting, thank you for filling me in. I guess it probably doesn't really matter since most viewers probably haven't read the comics anyways.
I agree, big spoiler there
To be fair, he did start the video with a spoiler warning and telling you to watch the movie before you watch this.
I love how fleshed out the funeral scene was and you can actually feel the grief and sadness of everyone in New York felt while 'I'm Not Scared' played- that's just a perfect example of attention to detail this movie played out.
King Pin is an absolute unit
I love Sunflower by Post Malone Swae Lee, my new fav music to listen to when I'm drawing.
Bro, like this was both a great and really sad year for Spiderman. And I think one of the saddest parts of it all is the fact that Steve Ditko died, one of the most influential people in Spiderman history, and no one talks about him, simply thinking of or paying homage to Stan Lee as the only Spidy creator. I loved the video, I really did. You share a lot of the same thoughts and feelings that I did coming out of this movie and I was super excited to see the video come up in my notifications. But dawg, my man, as a fellow Spidy fan, like can we pay some respect to Ditko, who also just died this year. That's all I'm askin. Loved the vid tho
Dark Elmo Same. I’m kinda ticked off that he didn’t mention him. It’s sad that they seem to forget Ditko, who just passed away this year. I didn’t even know he died until I decided to pick up a comic months later that mentioned it.
He's also mentioned in the credits with the Stan Lee quote
These two were at the center of my creative universe. The characters they made together have inspired me for the better part of almost 3 decades.
Steve Ditko made one of the two superhero designs that literally EVERY other superhero design is based. On top of all the other things he added to Spiderman lore. (I believe he created Gwen Stacey) it's like when only Bob Kane gets credit for making Batman. It just annoys me.
It's "Spidey", mate.
I went to see this movie with a friend who isn't big into comics, but he came out loving this movie. While the credits were rolling, I explained to him about Spiderman 2099 usually taking up Penni's spot, and how I missed him, but loved the new Spidermech. Then the End Credits Scene played. Then I realized they confirmed that even the old cartoon series were Spiderverses. Then my brain was fried from all the new possibilities.
Spider-Man is such a protean character that they could make several sequels and keep bringing in a whole team of existing variants. There's even more of him than Batman. I wanna see 1970s Japanese TV Spider-Man, the one who's a motorcycle racer and has a giant transforming alien robot named Leopardon. (I suspect Peni Parker is at least a partial reference to him, but his show also inspired all the shows that we imported as Power Rangers.)
The Spider-Verse comics play quite a lot with that. Hell, everyone is baffled at 60's Spidey's universe because the buildings have no identifying features (just like in the cartoon) and the fact his webs act more like a net than anything else. Hell, tokusatsu Spidey was there in his full glory with Leopardon and that's not even the tip of the iceberg. The fact that storyline came not too long after Superior Spider-Man made that my favorite Spidey era in recent years.
Where do I even start? Probably my favorite part about the film is that it’s in a way a parody of Spider-Man, and it just works on so many levels. This is the seventh Spider-man movie. For gods sake, audiences are sick of Sony pumping out spider-man films, so this one is very self aware of that. For example, every time they introduce a new spider and they play that theme and show a montage of their origin. to me, that represents all the iterations of the character we’ve seen, and I think the movie even says, ok ok last one, every time a new origin montage is shown. Yet at the same time, it’s so fresh by being so different from the rest of the spider-man films. It’s such a breath of fresh air while addressing in a sense our reaction to Spider-man. It’s as if the filmmakers saw how Spider-man films were being received, and really worked the movie around our reaction (and hollywood’s) to Spider-man.
Second, for being a parody of sorts, DAMN it understands the character of Spider-Man. Better than every iteration on screen. Not Peter Parker. Spider-Man. The transcends Peter Parker, which reminds audiences that Spider-Man is a symbol, not one person. ANYONE CAN WEAR THE MASK.
it’s just so perfect and i love it. it really does give us the ultimate
This title makes 10 times more sense when you realize miles moreales was from the ULTIMATE universe and was called ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN
This movie was such a treat. Completely surpassed my already pretty high expectations.
I hope it does well at the box office and gets enough awards buzz to maybe beat The Incredibles juggernaut for Best Animated Feature, because it really deserves it, and unlike foreign films, it actually stands a chance.
I hope so too. It deserves it, considering the effort put in.
Katt1721 I made a video on the movie.
Sadly, it won't get the business it deserves just because its animated.
Just have seen it a few days ago in cinema. There where a lot of families... but they where all there for the grinch or Tabaluga. My brother and I where the only one in the spiderman movie.

I had low expectations going into this movie... I didn't read the spider-verse OR miles morales comics... and I was very worried about Sony going off on their own on this one. I was blown away by this movie!! This is easily one of my favorite Spider-Man movies of all time. I think my favorite character is Doc Oc, I'm glad they left the character out of the promo material.

For me, the most affecting moment in this magnificently gorgeous film was when Miles' dad was pouring out all of his love and pride for his son to Miles' closed dorm door, giving Miles the self-confidence and self-love he needed to become the hero he always wanted and was always willing to be.
Great video Geoff, see you in the next one!
Just so you know : I'm buying the DVD and endlessly watching it

i pre-order the film after it gets in itunes, cuz it's just so good
We all are. Or at least I am
Probably my favorite part of the movie was NYC's depiction: the sheer size and power that the skyscrapers had in that movie, atleast when I was watching it, was the most exhilarating thing about watching into the spider verse. Although I'm used to seeing skyscrapers both on screen and in person, that was the most organic urban landscape I'd ever seen. Many people say that cities are like living, thinking beings, always moving and changing, but never have I really felt that until seeing how NYC is animated in ITSV. The dark blue and purple in which the city was always cast, made Miles' journey feel so much more redemptive, especially when he's thrusting himself into the dark, upside down world in the "what's up danger" scene.

Maybe not to you, but if you follow LEGO and are a kind of “historian” with the bricks, then it becomes pretty amazing how accurate they were. Even the parts used in some of the props are inside jokes, like where a part they stopped making in the 90’s is right next to its 2000’s replacement. Or Benny’s spaceship, called LL929, a reference to LEGO’s best-selling spaceship in the 70’s, the LL928.
Great video! My personal favorite part of the movie was seeing Blonde Peter's Spider-Man in action. Those few moments from the introduction to the battle in the collider to his death did everything right. The little details in his movement, like the way he steps off of the Collider cylinder before shooting his web after the panel falls on goblin's head, to his quips while fighting, to the way he stops Collider mid-rotation with just the strength of his arm, even the way he makes his way up to the control panel after speaking to Miles about how he could "show him the ropes". They all just convey a level of almost casual confidence and experience in his abilities that I have literally seen no other piece of spidey media get SO right, and that includes the PS4 game. This movie was so good
mujiha and that’s why peter is the best
I’m glad someone else noticed him shooting off the web after he steps off. Both Peter Parkers do that, and it’s a cool touch that could be interpreted in a few ways. Blonde Peter Parker is full of confidence and he’s getting shit done without worrying, whereas Peter B. Parker is just kinda jaded due to his years of experience
Sati Duh It’s beautiful how right you are
Can we take a sec to recognise Steve Dtiko ALSO died this year?
My favorite part:
“Will you give me that back young man?”
“IT’S PROPRIETARY”

Hands down my favorite movie this year. I've dreamed about seeing an animated Spider-Man movie to this caliber and it delivered so much more heart and laughs and genuine excitement than my brain could initially process. I took my kids to see it the next day and all three of them loved the movie just as much if not more than I did. It just works on every level and I have a hard time finding anything to really nit pick over.
I am surprised you didn't spend more time talking about Peni Parker. For the truly short amount of time she was on screen, her character felt more fleshed out than the comic book variant has been able to do since It's inception. People in my showing mourned the death of a mecha and cheered at the survival of a spider.
I truly want to see an anime showing how a young school girl develops into a hero after the death of a parent, developing superpowers, gaining a mecha suit, and befriending a sentient animal (Can definitely tell why they changed her art style).
And seriously if you don't see Sp//dr man on the anime calendar for fall 2019; it is because my home made boat failed the cross ocean journey to convince anime studios to pursue the ip.
I hated her she felt way too out of place (and this movie has a talking spider pig)
Interesting fact that Peni Parker was created by Gerad Way who was the lead singer of My Chemical Romance.
I wish she had a japanese accent tho.
She's not that great tbh, you're just a weeb
She is just surprisingly promising, not perfect. But Having seen Heroman I find Western characters jammed into anime to be kinda good. Guess I just get over exited at any anime idea that isn't an isekai.
Thank u for crediting Stan by his proper title: “The Man”. May he RIP
Into the Spiderverse was the most amazing film I've ever seen. It's brilliant on all levels.
This movie showed us the humanity behind such a young, aspiring young man who was just thrust unbelievable powers and a hell of a pair of large shoes to fill. The expectation and pressure thrust onto miles was incredible, and pushing the young boy to believe in himself was the best part of the movie
This...made me realize just how much Stan Lee has impacted the entertainment industry. I cried at his cameo and cried at the quote. I’m even teary eyed thinking of the experience I had there. Miles Morales is probably now my favorite spider man. I always had an interest him being a black hispanic, but then seeing him in action, his quirky and sassy personality that’s almost a Spiderman Trademark, his development here, it makes me wanna dive into his story more, into this story more, and see more Miles and more of these characters. My love for marvel and love for spiderman was rekindled when I saw it, and above all, it gave me another spark to create. Cheers to Stan Lee, for leaving behind such a legacy
I want all the spider people in the movie to get there own movie
They say that there'll be a Spiderwomen sequel with Gwen, Spiderwoman and Silk! I can't wait!!!
ME TOO!
I would watch the crap out of a Spider Man Noir movie.

Eyyy same!!
Watch the spectacular Spiderman cartoon. It rivals this movie in terms of story and other factors..
My favorite animated movie as well.
DON'T READ THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED AND DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED!!!
Honestly, Geoff, you just said everything and anything I liked to say about the film. I loved every scene of the film. But for some reason, the one scene that touched me the most, was the scene where Peter hangs Miles from the ceiling and asks him if he can turn invisible on command, while the other Spideys are outside. Miles really tries but ultimately fails. That, plus the leap of faith line plus the combined line of Stan and MJ from beforehand made me gush tears
that scene just hurt to watch, which makes it even more amazing.
The thing that made it the most emotional was the look of hope in Peter's eyes as he said it. Miles wanted to be able to do it. Peter WANTED Miles to be able to do it. Gwen and the other Spiderpeople did too. But he couldn't. And because of that they felt the need to protect him. They'd rather sacrifice themselves than let an "innocent child" be hurt. It's a very human moment that made the group feel more like a family and definitely a testament to each of their heroic natures.
That one made me cry, and then another scene--- the one when they're saying goodbye, and the words of comfort are flipped for Peter to trust and do it and Miles believing in him. The call back from Peter teaching Miles at first. Like my god.
I cried a long time after watching it. I didn't realize how much I needed a story so well-told. It felt like a great artist painted a picture just for us and it contained everything we love. I've experienced satisfying stories before. But this one... this one was satisfying in ways that I never knew I wanted.
Spoilers:
Something that was /just. so. satisfying/ was the comic book boxed in words showed up, in the moment where "LOOK OUT" shows up behind Miles, and other moments like that. It felt like the narrator/writer of the comic was on his side or our side or both, I don't know.
There were so many things that were just so satisfying about this movie. I don't remember the last time I have been this satisfied by the dark moment leading up to the climax in a film--beyond Lord of the Rings, at least.
I believed in Miles and related with him so much because he felt real. I felt the danger with him. I probably wouldn't have had the confidence to go try to save the first Peter Parker when I don't even have my powers fully figured out. I'd expect I would just make things worse.
And then later when Peter B Parker proves that Miles isn't ready yet--I felt like crying so bad because I've been in a similar place. That frustration is so real, of wanting to be somewhere you aren't, yet. Of wishing you had power that you don't have yet. (aka trying to rock climb a tedious wall that is impossible to climb unless you have strong arm muscles to pull yourself up and go upside down, which I could not, after climbing easier walls)
At first, I wanted to nitpick about Miles getting his powers back all at once after the one talk his dad has with him, but then if I remind myself that it's a fantasy movie, I let it slide. It represents that he has found the determination he needs to keep going, and that's really what he needs at this point. It's probably one of the things that makes the next scene so satisfying.
I really wish we'd had more time with the first Peter Parker. But I grew to love the second one.
One of my favourite things was that (spoilers) the movie didn't even try to convince us that Aaron would hurt Miles after he found out who he was. Nada. He steps back and holds his hands up in a surrender with a small smile on his face. Even after he gets shot, he doesn't tell Miles it's his fault (even though it indirectly is) he encourages him. The parental love in this movie is EXTREMELY well done and one of the best parts of the entire thing for me (as well as the stairs scene)
