[@Sinisterlizards]

Hobie is such a good example of the great writing in this movie. At his first appearance, you directly sympathize with Miles in that feeling of not wanting to be shown up. Add to that his initial snarky and sarcastic quips and you definitely get the feeling of skepticism towards his character. The rest of the movie subtly breaks down that preconception. His questioning of Miles as they are walking to meet Miguel provides the first clue that while he is rather aloof, he isn’t arrogant. He has the humility to admit that there are things he doesn’t know, but he still retains a very cheeky nature. His admiration of Peter B.’s daughter provides a further insight that his ideology isn’t for show and that he genuinely admires and cares about the merits of rebellious behavior, a fact solidified by his impromptu resignation. And it all comes full circle when he foresightedly provides Gwen with the home-made dimension-hopping armband: his anarchic ways weren’t just window-dressing or comic relief, they were a serious conviction that provided integral support to the two leads. I don’t even know how much screen-time Hobie got but my Lord (and Miller) did they use it well.

I really, really liked The Spot in this movie. Such an obscure, random villain, yet, he’s so fun. I love how he’s going into the multiverse for the sake of proving that he isn’t a “Villain of the Week” and an arch nemesis for Miles. So goofy yet, he’s so terrifying. I wish he had more of a presence in the second act but, I’m really excited to see him in Beyond the Spider-Verse.

[@obliviousfantasy633]

He went from being non-menacing to menacing as hell really quickly. Like I already knew he was gonna be an issue because dude is basically a dimensional traveler that basically can't be stopped But fucking seeing him become like that in the film was amazing

[@ARCHIVED9610]

when the next movie comes out i am gonna explode aaaaaahjskejwj

[@theluckduck548]

The reason the Spot works so freaking well is because he represents Mile's relationship to the multiverse. The average writer would have had the multiversal collapse occur when the plot needed it to happen, but what's infinitely more satisfying is a character to simplify the complexities of the multiverse, and to give a motive to the unimaginable. At first, Miles is very playful and naive to the concept of the multiverse, which fits Spot's banter at the beginning of the movie. However, as Miles confronts the greater dangers of the multiverse, the Spot becomes exponentially more powerful, threatening, and terrifying as a result. He might just be my favorite cinematic spiderman villain.

This means that The Dark Knight which was previously 3rd with a score of 9.0 is now 4th on the list, making Across The Spider-Verse the best animated film of all time, and also the best superhero movie of all time.

Spider-Punk alone took the animators 3 years to animate. This movie is truly revolutionary. As Nick said, the first movie was a demo for what the animation team could do. This movie is what happens when you let that same animation team actually go off. And not just that. Everything in this movie is cranked up to 12. So much effort has been put into this movie, there’s so many Easter eggs in the background. The onomatopoeia in the Mumbattan dimension IS IN HINDI. HOW MUCH MORE COULD YOU WISH FOR IN A MOVIE.

​​@@kojoanoOh, no... The averted apocalypse in 2012 must have messed with the timeline. Who knows what the government's been hiding from us? What Area 51 contains? Perhaps they have been receiving cryptic messages from a distant galaxy warning them of our fate. Perhaps they wanted our final moments to be spent with excitement for the third movie. Perhaps when we averted the 2012 apocalypse, we merely delayed the inevitable... So many signs... This movie, the massive inflation, the increasing civil unrest, all of which point towards a catastrophe.

After going back to the first movie, SO MANY THINGS MAKE SO MUCH MORE SENSE. There are loads of small details or one-off comments that connect DIRECTLY to what we learned in the 2nd movie, and DAMN is it cool. The sequel has been out for two days and it's already got me theorizing and trying to connect all these different story pieces together trying to predict where the third installment will go lol

[@John-ns5se]

So awesome how they introduced a C-teir villain like the Spot and made him a compelling character. Especially with how his origin started out from the first film which is very funny to me. I honestly thought he was just gonna be a one off villain at the start and that was it but he progressively became more of a threat and more interesting as the movie went along with his ability to destroy other dimensions. I’m really excited to see where they take him in the next film.

Something I really loved about this movie was the small things. I loved how in the beginning of the movie when the family is at the meeting, the lady says Miles has a B in Spanish and Rio snaps at him and there’s a little Puerto Rican flag in the animation, explaining why she’s so ashamed. I love how they have little editors notes like a real comic would. I love how even the most minuscule details of a character’s design are important to pay attention to. For example, Rio’s eyes are brown normally but when Miles goes to Earth-42 by accident, her eyes are green and before they reveal that he’s in the wrong universe, only those who paid specific attention would realize that something was wrong. And even if you didn’t pay attention you still have a sneaking suspicion that something is wrong, because something about Rio doesn’t look quite right

[@hi3721]

I was tearing up at the ending like I felt like it stabbed me in the back. I was fan girl-ing during the movie. Even when the screen said “to be continued” I was like “just watch it’s gonna come back” then when the music before the credits started playing I was like “it’s gonna come back after this” and it didn’t. My feelings of not wanting a movie to end has never felt so strong. It is now my favorite movie and I am definitely going to watch the next movie when it comes back.

the only consistent complaint ive seen is that it ended like that, but thats because it was literally originally called part 1, its the first part of the story so obviously it's not gonna resolve everything, that complaint will be fixed next march tho when the sequel comes out. the other complaint ive seen is that the pacing in the first half is too slow, but for me that made it better, i loved the character moments and the writing was amazing. i think once the next movie comes out (once again, in march, not even a very long wait), the two combined will be an 11/10 animated experience

One thing I don't see people talking about is that there is this constant sense of dread in this movie, it doesn't start when Spot goes full interdimensional, it doesn't start when Miles learns about his father's destiny, it doesn't start when Miles arrives in 42, no, it starts all the way back when Miles is talking to his dad overlooking the Alchemax reconstruction site, it's a very quiet and wholesome scene but it feels like there's something boiling underneath (same goes for the upside down Gwen scene and *specially* for the water tower scene with Rio), from that point on there is this constant anxiety that you're about to see something horrible, and it just keeps growing and growing all the way to the credits, you think you can release the tension in certain scenes like the 3 ones I mentioned before, but then you realize that no, it can get much higher, that's one of the reasons you leave the movie immediately wanting more... I felt like this in No Way Home as well, but it was a mere fraction of how it feels in Spiderverse 2, and the buildup didn't last the whole movie, it had a major breaking point when Tobey and Andrew showed up, kinda like their presence was calming

[@yolomolo2736]

Who knew perfection could be topped. The last one was like an introduction this one dives deeper into the character’s relationships and feeling with each other as well as them selves. We really get to know all of them a whole lot more. Deep messages are also baked into this movie where are you an advocate that everyone has a fate and things happen for a reason or are you a destiny defier. Fate vs free-will. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Miles is growing up, his parents miss him and want to spend more time with him and act disappointed when he is not with them and I’m sad because our of our hourglasses run out eventually and I wish he spent more time with his family while he still could instead of chasing someone he loves which I get it but would you rather spend time with people who are there for you always or a little white dove? Speaking of which the relationship between the two is expanded and broken down a little with the seeds of mistrust sewing. We know more about Gwen and where she came from, who she is, what she has to deal with and new characters. These movies broken the barrier of what animation could be and was the first to do so with other studios taking note and copying but Spider-Man spider-verse will always and forever feel like Spier-Man spider-verse. The Matrix changed filmmaking and this changed animation. I understand now that there is no limit to perfection and there is no bar, the limit is only our imaginations. ❤🕷

At first it being a part 1 felt bitter sweet. But after some thought, ive realised it just allows so much more room to develop the characters, the tension and just elevates the whole movie

[@DarthOpinion]

Spiderverse to me is the accumulation of perfect synergy between the visual, auditive and writing aspects of the film. You feel as though the characters emotions, actions and dialogue is not only directly conveyed but also through visual colours. That’s what makes scenes like the one with gwen leavin the portal and miles being invisible is so fantastic. This also happens in all the scenes between gwen and her dad. Gold tier movie. The only thing that the first one did better was the music.

[@floraice11]

the moment when miles realises he's in the wrong dimension is ELECTRIFYING. my friend and i first noticed the spots in the window and on the walls as miles was talking to his mom (on earth-42), then we noticed how they multiplied and how when he went onto the rooftop they were everywhere. the fact that a few ink splatters made the hair on the back of my neck stand up is a testament to how incredible this movie is. i fully don't think i'll ever see a movie that good again.

[@DI-QueenmoEMino]

I'm seriously loving how Spider-Verse is changing the game within the animation industry. Seeing more animated movies willing to be more experimental and more creative with their animation styling and actual taking risks instead of playing it safe or average. Truly showcasing the limitless , boundless, high imaginative potential of animation as a medium as a whole and what its capable of.
