@@karankapoor2701 This episode may have the best camerawork and editing in the entire MCU (maybe in the entire superhero genre), and Im not even exaggerating, or being over the top... They legitimately did some seriously DIFFICULT and IMPRESSIVE stuff in this. Im still trying to figure out how they did that "jumping out of the window" shot, in Kamala´s imagination (Im pretty sure it transitions from a stunt double, to a CG body, and then to the real actress... But if that´s the case, it´s the BEST CG transition that has EVER been put on film). And that´s just one example out of MANY.
