Miles's Leap of Faith And Why it's the Best Scene in Any Movie Ever (Into the Spider-Verse)

[@Blizzic]

This video now has some messed up audio in the beginning of the "Setup" section to prevent the video from being blocked entirely. Looking back, I'm surprised it took so long for there to be an issue like that. Don't know how much longer the video will be able to stay up, but I don't have it in me to remake or re-edit it, so yeah. It's just gonna have to stay a little fucked up until it inevitably goes down again. Spanish subtitles now available, thanks to @fan110_mica on Twitter!

What makes this scene even more powerful is the way it was written into the script, far before the animations ever came. To quote, "Miles walks to the edge of the of the roof, the wind is buffeting... and LEAPS! The camera is UPSIDE DOWN. Miles isn't *falling* through the frame. He's RISING.

I really love that they never demonize his uncle. yes, he’s a criminal, but he’s not a cartoonish villain. he loves others, lives somewhere, enjoys music, is a *person* . and more than that, is a person Miles loves back, even if it’s complicated. he doesn’t turn away from the good parts of his uncle, but takes them in as guidance, just as much as the good things about his dad. in a way, Miles’ success is the brothers reconciling through him

@@elwoodstelhommme8745 16:40 he talks about it here. He identifies they Miles has his own completely unique style of swinging through the cities compared to the other spidies. He's influenced by those around him including his uncle. As the prowler, his uncle parkours across building walls with huge burst of movement. Miles matches this with his own webspinning and spidey movement as he takes his leap of faith. Compare it to Peter Parker, you see him confidently or non-chalantly crawling, walking vertically, or just web spinning across the city walls so there's a direct contrast to Miles making his own identity as Spiderman.

you can also see the glass ripple for a few frames before it breaks

[@TheDarkMaster90]

damn do yall even pay attention to the movie?

[@TheDelinear]

The glass break is the defining moment of the movie for me. It's the part that sells the fact that this IS a leap of faith. If he'd just jumped it would be easy to say, sure they say it's a leap of faith but he's Spider-Man, he was never in danger... but that one tiny addition (alongside the earlier scene that set up that he needs to relax to unstick) really sells to me how terrified he is in that moment, but still commits.

Not only does Miles's "parkour" style of webslinging represent his influence from his uncle, it also references earlier in the movie when he says he prefers running over slinging. It's satisfying to watch him use webs to boost his running and jumping because it represents him combining the two aspects of himself, Miles and Spiderman, into one fluid and robust style of movement that perfectly encapsulates who he is.

[@TheDelinear]

Was going to say the same thing (glad I scrolled down!) - the line earlier that he runs better than he swings, but Peter insisting he swing, it mirrors all of the themes of self versus the expectations of others. In most movies it would be a throwaway joke like, "haha look he can't swing so he's just running instead", but here its a core part of the theme and it comes full circle to Miles creating his own unique way of navigating the city.

This will truly become a classic in the years to come 💯

[@EndureTyrant]

@@peterdante1946 I'm saying just on a technical level, the skill of the writing, the animation quality, the story itself, etc. This movie is significantly better than most of the movies you mentioned on all of these fronts. I think even as a non Spiderman fan, this movie is still one of the best animated films of all time. I love Spiderman, but I didn't have any real connection to any of the characters in this movie specifically, they had to earn that. I still ended up loving this movie above all the others. Spiderman was solidified as my favorite superhero, and this movie is actually a part of that. Now, you could make the argument that this movie doesn't work as well if you're not a fan of superhero movies, but I don't think you need to be a Spiderman fan to have it connect on the same level.

The camera angles and character positions in this animation speaks so much too. You see it in the beginning of the movie through the end. The camera flows, almost walking alongside Miles as he talks and waves to his peers. It swings, bounces, turning and connects his comfort zone. But when he’s in the academy, it is centered on him in the middle of attention. It’s stuck in a static position, staying the same and cold. Then there’s the beginning with his fathers. Position farther and looks smaller compared to his father, who’s upfront and at a angle with him. The lightening is dull inside, yet the light outside is warm, almost out of reach. It’s true, perspectives make a change.

[@XBLGR]

by far this has to be one of the best video essay I have come across on this app. after watching ‘across the spiderverse’ and then immediately being recommended to me, I’ve been in awe of just how genuine this entire franchise has been. Not only is what makes Miles’ story and what it reflects successful, it’s also love they put into this movie as a whole. As someone who is also afro-latino, I see myself a lot in him with the way he interacts with his parents and how they do with him. Seeing someone who honestly looks like I could be related to be the protagonist of one of the most beautiful and impactful cinematic movies makes me so happy. You did an amazing job analyzing this movie, it was genuinely so special and captured the beauty of ‘into the spiderverse’ perfectly :)

[@TrippyVisionAI]

I like how there’s also apathetic cynical adult Peter Parker, who has lost his spark. Although you can find it when you are young it’s easy to lose it when you’re older but you can still be inspired and reconnect by taking those same risks you do when you’re young.

[@reddfrwsita]

Peter B. Parker is such an interesting character, his journey to take a leap of faith about having kids just as Miles needed one to face his responsibilities instead of running from them is amazing (and kind of the same concept if we think about how rasing a child is a BIG responsibility) honestly, my favourite moment is when he tells Miles how proud he's of him lmao

In reality, from the tiny glimpse we get of Peter, we know that even he can't live up to this ideal.

Miles' character arc even has a meta element with this movie. For a long time, Miles was just another Spider-Man. The black Spider-Man. The replacement Spider-Man. Anything you could get from him, you'd just get from Peter, as no one understood what made Miles stand out. Suddenly, thanks to this movie, Miles' popularity exploded. Everyone wanted more of him because he truly came into his own. He wasn't just another Peter Parker, he is Miles Morales. He's getting more presence in the comics, he's being talked about more, and got his own video game just recently. Both in the story and in a meta element, Miles finally became Spider-Man. *His* Spider-Man.

[@Jester8492]

yeah the movie def increased his popularity and also fixed some of his story imo. Such as making his family be like an average family in brooklyn, instead of his comic book counterpart where his father is a Shield agent.

To me they also mocked, in a sense, the spiderman that the public is supposedly comparing miles to, which is peter parker. Its like they forgot that peter parker is far from perfect. A lot of people was saying, there is nothing that wouldnt make miles just the second spiderman. Like peter is everything that is the superhero. They literally made a perfect spiderman and killed him. Right in front of us and miles. The real, actual peterparker that we have, P b P, is shown and he is broken.
