Yeah, it was good. It actually gave Peter and Miles a believable, well-written relationship.
then the sequel happened

Yea, that's why I loved the first Spiderverse movie. You can't even top it because the story, writing and character motivation and/or relationship were more logical. It balanced the great visuals with amazing storytelling and believable characters, especially with Miles, Peter, Gwen, Kingpin and especially Noir, Peni and Ham. I'm not seeing the new one because, even with the great visuals, it still looks like dogshit.

Just watched Spider-Verse 2. I never watched the first one, I felt it was good, but too... "Zoomer". It felt like I was made by a ADHD millennial/zoomer.
Visually it was great, but felt it was trying way, WAY too hard at some points.

I enjoyed Oscar Isaac 2099. Spitting facts and being Latino Batman Beyond. Dreams die. Sorry snowflakes.

The Zomato ad during the India "Mumbattan" scene is so accurate to India, they captured that down pat.

Cliffhanger ending, what a cop-out. I don't understand why Jessica Drew is black. Also Gwen technically got blacked. Lol.

Crossover with the Godzilla thread, the Skull Island series is coming to Netflix later this month. Based on the how the human characters looked, I immediately thought of the She-Ra abomination. But it turns out the production company is the same one that did Kevin Smith's He-Man. From the trailer, the younger female character sounds insufferable, which is what to expect with today's Hollywood writers.

That's just Legend of Korra season 5! (I would swear some of the same voice actors are in Kong.)

You gotta DEAL with it!

and yet these same people act so shocked and apalled when they read about how incels are gaining traction and sexism in general is making a comeback
maybe you fucking idiots should stop writing your female characters to be so terrible if you know your audience and know that 30-year-old manchildren are going to be influenced by your stupid shit

The king kong show by Rankin bass and hanna barberas godzilla weren't as insufferable as any modern female character in animation. and then the idiots behind this crap ask why...why why why
 
I watched the new Spider-Verse and thought it was good. Like an 8/10. My wife liked it more I think. She didn't catch the troonery signals. I want the anti capitalist Spiderman to bite the curb in the sequel. And frankly, Miguel is right about everything but employs questionably intelligent people.

I really liked it yet thought that it went on for a bit too long, which I know is a weird complaint? I was expecting it to end (well, end of 1) right when the big chase scene did and it would have probably been an easy 9/10 for me, yet then the movie still had like an extra ten minutes or more until it actually ended.

Spider verse 2 is turning into one of those moments of modern animation where the overall product itself is ok, but all everyone will be taking about is 'was it too woke for its own good or woke and anyone complaing about it is a neo nazi.'

I ended up watching it online last night and I thought as expected, this is nowhere as good as the predecessor. All things considered, it's decent and surprisingly not as woke as expected. It's still visually amazing, but it's not as memorable. Still pretty entertaining.

that sucks to hear but I'm pretty sure if he was on any longer the animators would all have a collective heart attack and die so it's understandable lol

Yea, he's my personal favorite yet despite being one of the characters being used in promotions, it's sad he doesn't appear for long. This is pinnacle wasted potential. Shit, at least in the predecessor, Noir, Peni and Ham had more screentime and importance to the story. Punk being only there for five minutes tops and still being the highlight of the movie is just depressing.
