Agreed.

That being said, at least no one can say they had a Mandela Effect with this movie.

@samsnee I'd edit your post before the mods delete it.

Done. Thanks

Yeah I’m sympathetic to the animators but at the same time, do you know how many times some actors have to do the same scene over and over?

 

[Arachnerd]

Odd that your first reaction upon reading this is "well, other people have it hard too." Sounds awfully dismissive for some reason . People should never be overworked, and this case here is no exception. There's a reason why there's a controversy around VFX artists being overworked and underpaid in Hollywood, for instance.

I'm not surprised Phil Lord clashed with Amy Pascal considering how awful her creative input can be.

Steelbook.

That's an instant purchase for me.

Please stop giving me even more reasons to love this movie.

I was wondering if this was ever going to be released.

Maybe not overworking your animators to change things last minute would be nice this time...

So, all in all, I really enjoyed this movie ... But I prefer the first Spider-Verse movie a lot more.

For me, personally, this movie felt about 20 minutes longer than it should have been, and that's probably because I thought that Miles (literally the main character) was pretty boring this time around. His character arc in this movie is pretty much the exact same one from the first movie. His arc felt repetitive, and I found his scenes (the ones with his parents especially) to be very "been there, done that."

That said, Spider-Gwen and Spider-Man 2099 stole the show for me. They were excellent. And as a lifelong Spider-Man fan, it is so satisfying to see Peter Parker happily married with a baby ... What a nice contrast to the repetitive, character-devolving torture the writers put Spidey through in the comics these days.

Also, this should go without saying, but ... Hey Sony: treat your animators better. The animators are the TRUE stars of these movies, as they are some of the most unique and visually appealing animated movies since Pixar was in its prime.
