Another fantastic Spider-man movie!
How does it compare to the first one. Is it better?
Technically and design wise I think it improves on the first in basically every way, it’s difficult to compare the story though since the first was much more self contained (if such a thing is possible in a multiverse movie lol)
I havn’t seen the first one in a while, but I left the theater last night feeling the same way I did after the first one, fantastic movie. I’d say theyre on par with eachother.
I know this is going against the grain here, but I felt it was way too bloated and referential. The cliffhanger was just insult to injury.
That said, the parts that were good, were fantastic, I just wish they weren’t buried in quippy nonsense
Quippy nonsense
Guardians of the Galaxy was the only film to popularise that, and to make it funny.
Every other Marvel film followed suit, and it just felt cheaper and cheaper everytime
Yup, I totally agree. I was really disappointed to see spiderverse follow suit with it
Yeah I agree they sort of built a HUGE world with lots of story lines, but I have a feeling that combined with the next part it will be really awesome!
I hope so, I really enjoyed the first one, so sitting through 2h20m of setup just to not get an ending was a bit of a slap in the face. Especially since it was really just starting to get going
Some of the stylistic art choices were breathtaking. Truly one of the most visually stunning animated films to come out in my lifetime. I really appreciate that they aren’t afraid to experiment with pretty unique plot directions (being intentionally vague to avoid spoilers since the movie is still new). Also, I noticed that the soundtrack was full of some fun tracks that really differentiate it from a typical superhero film. It made me realize how bored I’ve gotten by the typical fare we get from a superhero movie. I enjoy most Marvel movies enough, but this movie wasn’t afraid to go to new places and break new ground. And I suppose to be fair, that’s the upside to animation over live action. All these thoughts could probably apply to the first Spiderverse movie too, but this movie felt like it took it all a step further in a good way.
I loved it. No issues with the cliffhanger or it being a two-parter except for the wait time. Fantastic use of the medium fantastic story, great pacing etc.
Can’t wait to watch it next week. Just saw apparently the 3rd one is coming out in less than a year which is crazy since we waited like 5 for this sequel.
I think they produced 2 and 3 together or back to back, like Kill Bill
I would pay to see a re-imagined Kill Bill with new artistic choices. (Tbf, I paid to see the first Kill Bill trilogy, so my point makes no sense)
I don’t think the original was planned to have a sequel? Just prepare for this one very much being the setup for a next movie. It was really good though!
Oh is that why? Makes sense then.
The opening with Gwen was incredible. I have minor quibbles about where it ends as a Part One, but beyond that I really enjoyed it.
Sadly it’s not even projecting in the cinema of my city, but i’m hype to see it when it will be on DVD or streaming website!
The cliffhanger ending and that its a twoparter were deeply unsatisfying to me
but otherwise agreed
I feel like I figured by the time they made it to the future world that Miguel was from that they were not going to resolve the Spot plotline, so I was fine with a cliff hanger.
