Across The Spider-Verse Destroys Its Own History

Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse is one of the greatest pieces of art I have ever laid my eyes on. From the animation to the stylistic expressions, visual tones, music, artistry, imagination, and storytelling on display, there has never been a movie like this ever created. It is truly a work of absolute art. I needed to rant about it.
Marvel has created one of the greatest things in human history.

    Ever since I watched this film it has been in my mind constantly replaying scenes, the soundtrack just being on repeat on my pc, just going online looking up the ending credits and just continuously being at awe at how humans made this project. From the opening scenes introducing Gwen, the battle with Vulture, there was just so much going on and I got so emotionally even before we got the title card. How Sony and Marvel let people tell and show their love to Spider-man and more importantly the concept of what it means to be Spider-man. I watched a lot of videos on Across the Spider-Verse and no video has been able to convey my emotions like this video. It feels like you went inside my brain and extracted all of my thoughts on this piece of art. This video truly is an amazing love letter and I'm so happy I got recommended this video. Thank you for this.

    I'm surprised to you didn't connect the real life conflict of a portion of the fandom themselves not accepting Miles Morales, long having considered him an unnecessary fraud of a Spider-man trying to usurp Peter's story. "Miles Morales is a mistake", "Miles shouldn't exist", "Miles Morales is a fake Spider-man" etc. These are all phrases levied against Miles since his inception, and they sat and brilliant chose to embed this meta into Miles Morales' origin story, into his growth and development. That anyone can wear the mask. That he belongs. That Miles Morales IS Spider-man, and nobody can take that away from him.

    It’s actually really refreshing to see a young character who is sure of themselves. Not in spite of their circumstances but BECAUSE of them.

    Only movie i have EVER gone BACK to the theater to watch again. It's the most amazing thing I have EVER seen. As an artist, it had SUCH an impact on me with its visuals. I have never seen something so beautiful and i was SHOCKED that this movie was so good. My mom doesn't usually like animation and she didn't even like the first film that much, but this? she loved it. My friends who've seen it have all said it's one of the best movies they've ever seen. good god, i hope everyone who worked on this movie is proud

    I feel like this is the most confident and young Spiderman we've ever seen in Miles, normally each Spiderman is so unsure of themselves at first, but Miles fully embraced it

    This movie is just as important for Gwen it is Miles. Thought out the movie you can see her struggles with opening up to people and it all comes to a head when she pours her heart out to her dad. It is downright breathtaking how well they managed to do this, with how many hints at whats going to end up happening in BTSV they added.

    Usually when I watch a good movie, I’ll obsess for a couple of days and then eventually move on. However, almost 2 weeks after seeing it, I’m still in love and cannot let go of this obsession, this feeling of excitement for a sequel is something no other film has ever made me feel before. This movie is beyond exceptional, and is the perfect representation of what a movie can be. This movie gives the perfect example of how to make lovable characters, like Hobie Brown, Spider-Punk, for example. Out of every character in this film, I had this assumption he’d be the least important in the film, and that he’d be this punk “poser” of sorts rather than a really cool dude. But instead, he is probably the most important Spider-Man to Miles’ character growth and to the plot of this entire movie. I mean, he knew Miles for less time than Gwen Stacy and even Peter B. Parker, and he still did SO much more for Miles than either of them combined. He looked out for him throughout the entire film, he tried convincing him against joining the Spider Society to protect him, and he helped him escape the cage they placed him in towards the end of the film. He is the reason a sequel is even possible, since he stole parts from Miguel and then crafted a makeshift watch for Gwen in the assumption that things would go wrong. And don’t even get me started on Indian Spider-Man (I don’t know how to spell his actual name). The trailer made him seem like he’d be this annoyingly arrogant Spider-Man character, but the movie made him an absolutely amazing character with some of the funniest lines in the movie (such as his frustration about people saying Chai Tea). Characters aside, this movie also has beautiful foreshadowing. In one of the Spot’s backstory scenes, we can briefly see the spider of earth-42 preparing to bite Miles G. Morales (Miles of earth-42) before it got sucked up into the portal that resulted in our Miles Morales being bit in the first film. The way this movie connects to the first film in so many brilliantly written ways is just mind blowing. I mean when the first film released who would’ve guessed (or even theorized) that the guy Miles threw a bagel at while escaping from the Alchemex laboratory would turn out to be the multiversal threat known as the Spot four-and-a-half years later. Personally, I thought it was thrown in with the onomatopoeia “bagel” effect as a funny joke when I first watched the first film, not as an incredibly subtle but genius method of foreshadowing, and I’m certain that I’m not the only one who thought this back then. All of these and many other reasons that would take me ages to type out in detail here are what make this film (and could make any film) amazing. This masterpiece of a film has me in a powerful chokehold, and I, for one, don’t want it to let go.

    The acting in this movie is so good, and makes all of these animated characters not even seem animated. Every single scene Miles had talking to his mom from the mid portion to the very end of the movie felt so real and authentic. Animators and VA's killed it. Even the subtle movements and expressions they made sure were extremely detailed.

    I love how good they treated the spot, he went from this character that just had a "Oh cool a unique villain of the week that actually beat's spiderman once" too "HOLY SHIT HE'S BEATING THE CRAP OUT OF MILES" and then again he becomes at like, his last appearance "Oh dear god miles is gonna suffer in the next series installment"

    I'm generally enjoying how the movie seems to be challenging the idea of "Spiderman needs to be a tragic martyr"; given most of those who make that claim often miss key point. Spideys life has tragic moments, yes. They suffer losses, but bluntly so does everyone. Its not those losses in of themselves that make most Spidey's lives tragic, but rather their traditionally terrible ability to process those losses instead. As you said, they "endure", they "cope" ... they don't "process". And whenever they allow that trauma too much control over their choices, it often is what leads them to such misery & tragedy. Especially with the destruction of their personal lives. With even the first movie showing this in how Peter B allowed his fear of losing kids to prevent him from ever having one; destroying his marriage. While Gwen's "not doing friends", closing herself off for fear of new pain after her Peter passed. With Miles' influence especially on them allowing them to change and improve those lonely martyr fates.

    I had never even thought of the Multiverse aspect where Miles is essentially the broken piece that cause the MCU’s version of an incursion. It really brings to light the possibility that Miguel is wrong here. But also, it brings the multiverse to a point where it’s more palpable than what the MCU has done so far. It takes what Loki’s done and makes it the hero’s personal journey while facing literally everything he’s ever known and loved. You brought perspectives I didn’t quite see before. I can only imagine how tough it was to not go on 17 tangents at once on all your points
