Its not underrrated

[@Zetsuke4]

Yeah says someone who posted after being years late to the cinema release and its initial public reception

[@ngegamesantai_]

It was popular enough back then, even in my place the studios which played this movie were always (almost) full

[@animesaw183]

It's not underrated bruh

[@jezuzu2078]

I'm just starting to get into graphic and print design for a career, and THIS. This is all I Want to do now. The style is incredible. This is basically the Jurassic Park of the animation world.

[@tarostartic8833]

gosh i've never animated nor am i a comic reader but still something about this movie stuck out as beautiful! the team behind this movie really are amazing at their craft

[@hhanahuahahaaaiia9817]

This movie is insanely good. I was just in awe the whole time.

[@cracknblast8247]

Yeah it was sosososo awesome!

[@shahryarazimzadeh8846]

I dont remember to enjoy any animation more than i enjoyed watching this movie. It was just perfect.

[@Roihan54]

and with that huge effort resulted in an Oscar

[@madelyn8838]

this will forever be my favorite movie, the animation especially has helped with my mental disabilities because its so stimulating and its so cool to see how it was all put together

[@str1xt]

That’s lovely to hear that the this piece of art has helped you Madelyn. Isn’t it inspiring how something like a film can make you feel positive inside. After watching this I am going to watch the film again tonight and I will be awe struck even more this time round. Have a really great weekend.

[@jasondaniel3657]

Literally any frame in this movie could be a good wallpaper

[@FR8MES]

Ohh man I wanted to see that 'bagel' hit. Such a great visual movie on all levels. Sure feels great to say I now have a favorite animated movie. Thank you to an extremely creative team.

[@blacksheep_77]

That's it...I also can now say I have a favorite animated movie...bar none. Genius film. I hope Sony finds their footing with this and tries another.

[@faemaiden5090]

I swear to god I could watch this movie on mute.

[@nohawk6412]

julia howe It wouldnt be complete without the soundtrack and the dialogue, in my opinion. The comedy was a part of the movie that i loved almost as much as the artwork. And the soundtrack... now im not even into that kind of music but i actually thought it was perfect. The songs and the scenes just went hand in hand all the way to the end

[@macmurfy2jka]

I did just that recently at a trade show, still great 👍. Another exhibitor was showing the film as a screen display

[@imluissebastian]

Totally agree. This is when you know how good the animation is.

[@Som3D]

*Even blind people would enjoy this movie*

B-B-But the soundtrack... :(

[@nutmeg7669]

this movie is literally the most beautiful thing ever!! i remember watching the trailer and my jaw dropped

[@art_noodle1]

3:06 There's a poster of this scene. When I was studying the composition of it, all the buildings were hitting a focus point, and even the direction of Miles Morales were hitting it. That's true dedication on the movie

[@iternal4823]

Fun fact: the director said if you pause any point in the movie, it would look as crisp and clear as a comic book panel

Across the Spiderverse literally outdid itself and was a better movie than the first one.This is definetly going to be the best trilogy once Beyond comes out

[@RANDOMPEPSIBOTTLES]

I love how they animated Gwen's New York at the end when she is back in her dimension. Felt poppy and daydream like.

[@mree.9794]

Give Alberto Mieglo his credit!! If it wasn’t for him the movie wouldn’t look like this

[@Rctdcttecededtef]

I seen him in the credits tho

[@luizabeda8777]

its really sad what happened and the fact that people just dont talk about him in any interview even if this film is totally himself and his soul, 'visual consultant' as a credit says nothing :')

[@nohawk6412]

Luiza Beda dont say that. It may seem nothing for you but every single person in the credits deserve the same praise for this amazing movie

[@creationsmaxo]

This video explain something not many people understand or even knows about: movies are made in "packs" and not necessary in the same order as what's shown. I really loved when they explains that the beginning of the movie was produced last because the soundtrack wasn't done yet.

[@captc502]

as long as there's a storyboard!

[@whatkindofnameisella682]

i swear in the future this is going to be taught in art history courses as the movie that changed 21st century animation........... i am never getting over this art, ever

Lion King would have been amazing in this stylized 3D method.

[@dtjunction]

I didn't know I needed this in my life before I saw this comment. Now I'm just angry I don't have it

But Lion King looks more realistic and thus Lion King is better. (going by the logic of the creators of Lion King)

Animation like this reminds me why i love animated stuff

[@WhiteAce3]

Spiderverse was the first animation since long ago, that was really fun to watch. I litteraly fell in love with it while watching it and this was mainly because of the animation and on top of that the storyline was humorous and played with the audiences expectations. Just a perfect movie.

[@adolfomauricio3020]

bro literally the sequel is even better omg

[@ericakrieger3106]

Incredible production, the 2D/3D blend and character stylization makes this by far my favorite movie as an animator

[@giulyanoviniciussanssilva2947]

4:09 this scene shows how each frame of this film gives a poster or a T-shirt print that is so stunning.

[@giulyanoviniciussanssilva2947]

@GamerGreninja16 yes then I would play a big part.

Spider-Verse is literally the most beautiful, creative, and detail oriented movie i've ever seen! Absolutely brilliant 😍

each and every single frames of this movie is a masterpiece, i hope they produce more movies with these type of animation style and can't wait for across the spider verse

[@jalabi99]

Every award given to this movie was totally deserved. A masterpiece of the animated arts.

[@colin5763]

This was an awesome movie all round. The bold, fresh approach to mix flashbacks to the printed comic days, with the latest animation techniques turned out insanely good. Even for those non-animators like me, you could clearly see it was on another level of expertise. Just when you thought it impossible for a fresh take on a character spun so many times (pun intended), they released a movie masterpiece on many levels.

[@171QA]

This film IS a graphic novel in motion. :D

[@snowyyzoe]

I'm really in to this combination of 2D and 3D. It really helps movies stand out! I hope we see more of this or other types of "mixed media" animated movies.

[@botass2684]

"well yes but actually no but also yes and also no but obviously no"

[@onyxth3ripper]

What I love most is how they purposely made everything in the comic book so alive, yet cartoonish, for example when Miles was curling up on the wall of the skyscraper (2:36) you could feel and see what was happening in the scene, like you were the one there. What got me the most the first time I viewed it, was that it was almost exactly like a comic book, and the people responsible for the film captured each scene with line art and 3D objects, and nobody has ever seen anything like this. It completely immerses you into the film, and I can't wait to watch it again.

[@honestlyidk6005]
