In terms of depicting how Spider-Man deals with death, Marvel's Spider-Man PS4 has always hit home for me. I may be biased, since it came to me shortly after the passing of a loved one, but Peter's line, "Do what you think is right, even if it hurts like hell," followed by his final interaction, "I don't know what to do." "Yes, you do", with Aunt May before having to let her die has always been one of my favorite depictions of Peter's character. He knows what's right, and will put himself through hell and back to do it.

A few notes on the depiction of Spider-Man here just like from a writing perspective 1. Spider-Man is def the type of character who when faced with grief internalizes it and blames himself, not someone who lashes out at everyone around him. He takes responsibility even when its not his fault, thats the whole idea 2. When it comes to the kid he would, without question, try to be normal and quippy and stuff but without putting his heart in it and when it gets too much to take, like the kid asks too many things or brings up too many bad memories, he would either excuse himself or just bounce when he's not looking. He'd beat himself up over that decision later, but thats what he'd do. 3. Peter ain't cool. He's got a good social circle and I could see people being amazed that he gets the attention of a few popular girls, but I don't think folk would naturally find themselves being jealous of him or wishing they had what he had. Frankly the most accurate version of showing Peter hanging out with his friends would be like him DMing a DND session at his house with like at most Harry, MJ, and whatever the extremely nerdy friend du jour is. The reason Peter has charisma is because he has a mask to hide behind, in his day to day life people probably just see him as a quiet geeky kid. Also just like general notes is because people process grief in different ways it would be good to show that? Like MJ would probably be very openly sad, Harry would probably get mad, and Peter would probably wall himself off. Play in that space and see how these three different coping methods interact and intersect with one another and the strain it puts on their relationship and for gods sake show us what normal looks like before then

alot of this sort of changed and was altered in like TASM which is you having the more Outward expression of grief which is more relatable these days than totally internalized(Symbiote was important cause it actually externalized his internal feelings), also Peter I like more when he came off as a loner in TASM just going through the motions than like the nerd but yeah this is definitely not the traditional Peter Parker but yk I like TASM's rendition more also in TNAS Peter was a bit cooler iirc

In my opinion, being comic accurate should be about taking the original spirit and aesthetic of your chosen era of comics and then using them to tell an original story. Too many fans think that comic accuracy should be about ripping whole stories out of the comics and then just doing a panel-for-panel remake.

The problem with hardcore Spider-Man fans is that their love for watching Spider-Man struggles has devolved into a fetishization of his pain in stories. Therefore, they think that if a story primarily focuses on his pain and sacrifices is the peak of his character. It’s not. What’s so compelling about the character is that despite his pain, he still stays dedicated, kind and good.

And two: There is a good reason every single version of the story where Peter stops being Spider-Man, has him back to being Spider-Man, it is because of what you just described, that despite his pain, he still stays dedicated, kind, and good. If he was a character that was solely focused on his pain he wouldn't become Spider-Man again (in any version of the story) because there is only so much pain that one person can endure. I bring this up because while the filmmakers of Spider-Man Locus may like Spider-Man 2 that certainly doesn't mean they understand it at all.

When Marcus brought up dream projects, my mind went to Tick, Tick… Boom!, a project that was created in the wake of failure. Jonathan Larson (best known for the musical Rent) created Tick, Tick… Boom! after slaving for 8 years trying to get his dystopian show Superbia off the ground. The show is all about how over-ambition can cast shadows over friendships, love, creativity, confidence, and everyday responsibilities. This is the pit that can strain any artist from reaching their full potential and hearing Marcus affirm this reminded me why he’s among my top 5 creators.

I'm going to use this movie as a reminder of what happens if I let my ego get too caught up in something I make.

I recently rewatched Buffy and I knew The Body was coming but this rewatch occurred a couple years after losing my Dad. It broke me in a way it didn’t before, because it captured that feeling of hopelessness and how the world continues with its mundane things like people getting a parking ticket, having to clean something up or your favourite top going missing. But you’re trying come to terms with this huge thing and it feels like the world doesn’t acknowledge it. My only criticism of the episode was it was the first on screen kiss for Willow and Tara and I wish that it hadn’t been a part of an episode dealing with loss

It’s the classic advice given to writers “kill your darlings”. You’re going to have a bunch of ideas for stories, characters, settings, themes, etc. But even if they’re good. If you turn a book that should only realistically be 300 pages, into almost 1,000 pages. Or a short film that should only really be 10 minutes, into 90 minutes. Then it doesn’t matter how good those ideas are. It’ll be a complete mess of pacing, tonal shifts, and plot threads. Save those ideas for different works, and kill them in the works where they don’t need to be in.

I really appreciate you including the part from Buffy. I was literally crying the entire time, and while writing this. What a good episode. I was not expecting that. The rest of your vid was moot compared to this. So beautiful. I'm not even going to mention the name of the rest of your vid in respect to how good that episode was

Here's a few things that would make it a better story. Peter is still sad over Gwen's death BUT he has to still do spider-man duties. Fighting super villains like Shocker, Vulture and so on. As movie progress Peter's relationship with his friends decline and he's getting mentally and physically exhausted. Peter is about to give everything up but MJ sends him a message and we as the audiences don't see it. Sick kid scece happens and Peter is ready to be Spider-man still and MJ herself helps Peter with sadness over Gwen's death. Both Peter and Spider-man are getting saved by two different people. Plus Harry and Rhino have 30 minutes long sex scene. Perfect movie.

It's perfectly fine to not like the MCU Spider-Man films (or any Spider-Man adaptation, for that matter), but when that hatred is used as fuel to make a movie to spite something you don't personally like, then it no longer feels sincere or honest.

They were clearly going for the scene from the comics where Peter similarly lashes out at MJ. But they forgot the most crucial part of the scene: Mary Jane chooses to comfort Peter after he tells her to leave, serving as the lynchpin that allows him to move on.

I've never watched this show because A. It's older than me and B. I've never heard of it in Europe, but it looks like it has queer representation with (I assume) Buffy and another girl??? In the 90s ? What wizardry is this

They had a good VFX team and costume/prop designers that they put into a trailer and people ate up. I would never trust some random student guy with such pretentious comments to helm the entire production without any experience or industry professionals involved and the fact people gave them money before the film was made makes my head spin. Seeing the scenes inside the warehouse or shipping container or whatever it is is hilarious and the goblin fight oh jesus. Totally agree with the lighting comments too haha

I've literally never seen a single episode of Buffy but I'm openly weeping at what you showed??? Oh my god???? What heartaching beauty.

I gotta say that the Buffy segment was unironically extremely well written and edited. It felt like how I imagine it felt in the show; an abrupt and jarring change in atmosphere that just sticks with you, after all the jokes that came before it. Great work!

Lighting seems to be the hardest thing to get right in micro budget movie. It’s straight up what makes a movie seems like a POS or a real motion picture

Yeah. So how did a multi-million dollar production like the MCU manage to have the most blandest, lamest looking Spider-Man movies in existence? Even Marc Webb's piss-poor movies had some decent look to them.

26:45 bro his voice was shaking he really hated doing this shit 😂

The whole point of Peter lashing out at MJ in the comic was to show that MJ wouldn't leave him alone, which planted the seeds of their eventual iconic romance. But nah, fuck that, just let him be a dick with no development for MJ.

What I don't like about Spider-Man trauma dumping on a dying child is that despite how much Gavin says he wanted the movie to be comic accurate, Spider-Man giving up is not Spider-Man. Spider-Man ALWAYS gets back up. That's the point of his character. He loses friends, family, jobs, and everything, but he always keeps going. Because he knows that there are people who need him.

THANK YOU! THIS IS WHY PEOPLE LOVE SPIDER-MAN!!!! Not because he’s sad and has bad things happen to him, but because he overcomes it and gets back up. The fact that Gavin and many specific “fans” missed that entirely annoys me.

I really don't get the mentality some fans have where if it's dark it's better by default. (Majora's mask or certain Pokemon fan games for example) it just seems so devaluing to reduce a story of good and evil to only the evil.

Your use of clips and memes from the other Spider-Man movies was genius. Also...I literally had no idea this movie existed until today.

Video made me realize that it’s ok I took a break to write my fantasy novel and focus on short stories and other writing pieces And I honestly I’m glad I’ve done that I’ve become a better writer
