NmareBfly posted:One thing we never really get an explanation for is why the collider grabbed spiderpeople specifically -- theoretically, it should have been going for KP's family. We actually do know that! The thing homes in on whatever's placed in the beam. During the climax, it's something related to Kingpin's family (I wanna say a hair, but holy poo poo is that segment a visual smorgasbord and I could be mixing it up). That's what starts bringing in Mrs Kingpin and Kingpin Jr. During the initial test, it was Peter's head, shoved in by Norman. That's why we got spider-folk

Also, I gotta say, this movie had the best reveal for Doc Ock. I did not see that coming, at all.

21 Muns posted:Argh, goddamnit, I heard so many great things about this movie, so I had to see it as an animation fan, and it was amazing on so many levels, but I'm 99% sure that my theater hosed it up and showed the 3D print by mistake. Like five to ten minutes in I popped out of the theater and asked an employee about it, but I was too goony to confidently communicate the issue to her and she thought I was just complaining about it being animated. But there were double-images everywhere; the further out-of-focus something went the more obvious the double-images got and the blurrier they were. I should have known instantly that it was a mistake, and, I mean, I did know instantly that it was a mistake, but I went into denial and tried to convince myself that everything was fine and it was a deliberate art choice to reference comic book misprints, but it was bothering me through the whole movie. Guess I'm going to see it again next week... so maybe it wasn't such a bad thing? There's a degree of that even in the 2d showings. They layered on a lot of different ways to show depth in this movie: blurred/split lines and an aggressive level-of-detail fade were just a couple of them. Some people can't get past the blurring/split effect, and I feel that's one of the very few legit criticisms in the movie. Not that I agree (it didn't bother me), but because I can see how it would bother some people.

I did make sure to let the theater know that there was definitely an issue on my way out.

Ah yes, because it is not tragic at all to be held by the throat by your beloved uncle, begging for your life, and just as said uncle starts to realize what’s happening, said uncle gets shot, so you flee with his dying, bleeding body to a filthy back alley where he finally dies in your arms, and then your father appears and blames you That’s the height of comedy right there.

A Sometimes Food posted:So a thing I just realised. Aunt May recognised Ock and called her Liv like she says her friends do. Given Spider-Verse May's technical acumen, it's not unreasonable to think they were once friends at some lab. It's also not unreasonable to assume there may be a more personal history, given that things tend to be similar between dimensions and there is, indeed, a romantic link between the two in mainline Spider-Man.

To quote Zangief from Wreck-It Ralph: Just because you are a bad guy, doesn't mean you're a bad guy. I don't see a dichtomy, at all. He's a chill, easy-going dude who earned his money as a hyper-competent enforcer. He doesn't have to tell Miles about doing dirty jobs to fit that role. In fact, it would make him a worse uncle, because his entire non-Prowler scene is him seeing that Miles is stressed out and helping him find a release. What good would it do to stop all that to say "sometimes you gotta do dirty jobs, kid." Also, said release involves trespassing and defacing property, so it's not like Uncle Aaron is a goody two-shoes either. He's explicitly on the outs with the policeman father to boot. The film shows us that Uncle Aaron is a guy who cares about his family and a guy who doesn't really care about the law.

Other than the sound, my favorite part of Prowler's "feel" was his animation and movement style. He'd go from stock still to full speed and back in an instant. You always got the sense that he was pouncing. That economy of movement made him scarier!

LividLiquid posted:I finally saw this, and I really loved it, but it super bummed me out that the first movie with Miles as Spider-Man in it had a decidedly mediocre white guy training him and then gatekeeping him, and later giving his blessing all, "you're not a real Spider-Man. Okay, you're a real Spider-Man." Did we see the same movie? Peter B was all about hyping up/building up Miles after the Alchemax escape. Before that, Peter barely even believed in himself.

waah posted:I'm sure it's somewhere already in this thread but watching this yesterday, it stood out to me when Doc Ock says "My friends call me Liv, my enemies call me Doctor Octavious" I really liked Aunt May in Spider-Verse. She's heavily implied to be a genius-level inventor, what with making Miles' webshooters and all. It's not a big step to think she invented most/all of the stuff in the Spider-lair. She easily could have been a peer or a friend to Liv on that alone. Not to mention the possibility of more-than-friends if her universe had a Ock-and-May romance like the primary comics universe did. Plus I got a real strong Madame Webb vibe from that quick "what took you so long?" shot when Miles goes back to the Lair. The dialogue, framing, and lighting would not have been out of place for a villain. Spider-verse May is awesome.

DandyLion posted:Counter-timed framing? I don't know what that is, but to me, it's the way he moves. Prowler's movement is very cat-like. He leaps, he bounds, he pounces, going from stock still to full threat display, claws out, in an instant.

DandyLion posted:Its when the animation frames skip a frame every other shot in opposite sequence with their surroundings/other characters (for the purpose of making the motions stand out). I thought they even talked about it in the blue ray special features making of vid. I thought that's what it was, but didn't want to assume! Peter B and Miles are animated in this way during the Alchemax sequence until they finally, literally get in sync with each other during the final web-swinging lesson.

May looks villain as gently caress in that scene where Miles goes back to the Spider-Lair and she's sippin' tea. Between that, the fact that she invents Spidey's gear ("Made them myself."), and the fact that she knows Ock as "Liv" really give credence to the possibility that she and Liv have a history together. They certainly have a lot in common. It's just that Liv is a murderous super-villain and May, well, May just beats the poo poo out of Tombstone with a baseball bat.

Grendels Dad posted:Currently rewatching the movie for the umpteenth time, and I just need to say how much I love Liv. Her "secret identity" is just perfect, what with the big hair and the nerdy glasses. It's such a great moment when she does up her hair and it all falls into place. I love her chattiness. She's kind of like traditional Spidey in that she never stops talking.

They used the Stan lee mode everywhere. It’s in the background of a ton of shots, particularly on trains.

I feel like the Spider-Rumble and Miguel drama will all be part of a plot that brings Miles down to a "no more Spider-Man" moment that he later recovers from in stellar fashion. Everything we've seen so far appears to be from the first third of the movie or so, in my eyes.

Captain Invictus posted:I should really watch the first one again. I just heard someone say "remember when miles got bitten by the spider in the first movie, and it glitched out right before? huh, wasn't that WEIRD?!" and man that's so true, I completely forgot about that, and I'm sure there's tons of other little foreshadowing tidbits. gently caress how did I not catch that?

Macaluso posted:There's also the thing I've seen brought up alot, which is when Miles and his universe's Peter meet for the first time after Miles has been bitten, they both do a spidey sense thing at each other, but Miles' spidey sense colors start off green and purple and then fade into red and blue. That's true, and I always took that as meaning that meeting Peter changed Miles from a future villain (who are coded green/purple a lot) to a hero (red/blue)

The score is incredible. It’s got callbacks and motifs all over the drat place. Spot’s theme is a remix of the collider theme from the first, for example.
