I thought some of the actions scenes with CM punching goons and dodging attacks felt like the much more understandable way they deal with too-powerful characters in the shows, like how Loki kinda grounded Loki into a smaller scope so we don’t expect him to solve every conundrum with his God magic. Blurring the films’ quality and tone and scale and MCU-progression with the tv shows is a larger complaint I have with recent movies though and not specific to the Marvels.
I thought changing the setting to the 90s and showing a piece of the unseen/retcon history of characters and a world we are familiar with was a fun place to go at that point in the MCU. And I think it was before all the movies were set in space/fully CGI alternate space-like worlds, so it felt more novel, IMO. I also remember being excited to see how the character would fit into the Avengers movies (before I knew they’d sideline the character). Sorry for the mini-takeover. Wanted to answer that question before I step away.
There is definitely a plan in motion for the arrival of MCU Miles being that Miller commented on it. The question is do they bring in a new Miles or just drag him over from the Spider-Verse (as with the rumor of his appearing in Secret Wars)? I’d imagine the TVA is keeping a close eye on what went down in Across the Spider-Verse
My guess is that Spider-Verse Miles appears in Secret Wars, and we’re introduced to a young live action Miles in Spider-Man 5. Question is, if they have a cameo in Secret Wars, does he stay animated (from the precedence set in the ATSV) or does he switch to live action with the universe he’s visiting (from the precedence set in MoM)?
I’m definitely still apprehensive about the animation even after finally seeing it in action, but the trailer honestly gave me chills.
I don't get what this means. I read some discussion on Reddit that MyTimeToSpreadFaff claimed it would be 3D with a "90s filter" but the consensus from the trailer is that this was wrong. I dunno, it looks 2D to me. The original cartoon was heavily influenced by anime style so this feels like a good balance of that and modern techniques.
I can't believe I remember this but Angela Del Toro was mentioned all the way back in Jessica Jones Season 1. It'd be cool to see that thread pulled.
I just got around to watching Echo today. shared a lot of the flaws the D+ shows all have but I enjoyed it overall. much more interesting take on the character than Hawkeye had lol
At least for this. I cannot forgive a Spider-Man and Daredevil vs Kingpin movie being trash because Sony wants it one year early
