I remember seeing the first movie in theaters, loving it, and then being surprised and quite salty that nobody went to see it cuz animation. Glad to see Across has been given its due.
General Movies, Music, Web Show, and TV News Thread
- Thread starter BrawlMan
- Start date
By the time I found about it (two months after the movie released), I didn't care that much that "nobody" went to see it. I love the movie, and it did well enough. Hell, home video sales were even better.
Guess people learned their lesson, after not seeing the first movie in theaters, and waiting until home video. Glad the movie is getting the exposure it deserves. Even if Across didn't, I still would've been happy to see the movie in theaters.
Cowcaine? Smackadillo? Krokodil Crocodile? Tho I'm really holding out for Blowzilla vs Bong
EDIT: movie with same premise already exists tho

Krokodil crocodile sounds enjoyably bad, cowcaine sounds like a bad comedy, smackadillo sounds like a bad sex comedy.
How about Zombeavers?
I remember that movie. I never actually saw it, but I saw a few clips on youtube. By that point, I was mostly done with zombies.How about Zombeavers?
Good for the Flash, I'm still not seeing that piece of crap. Also, most of those sites don't count for crap. I like all the movies in that picture, but not everything can nor should be compared to the Dark Knight/TDK Trilogy of all things. I judge all the these movies on their own merits.

It really makes you feel like the best DC movie since The Dark Knight.
The Flash sucks. It's one of the dumbest movies I've ever seen in a theater.
Well, for The Batman, didn’t that largely turn out to be a rather popular consensus and not just hype bait?
I agree for the rest of them - even the ones I like - that was a pretty hyperbolic thing for them to say. Not that it’s the sort of consideration most of those e-gutter tags would make but I think the point stands.
The Batman was great. Aquaman, Shazam, Squad and WW were middling to alright. The rest sucks.
Spider-Verse Fans Have Compelling Evidence That Gwen Is Trans
Gwen Stacy’s big scene was full of trans imagery and relatable dialogue

Interesting. But I think the movie just figured, hey, we have a teenager "coming out [with a secret]" to her boomer cop dad, the 2SLGBTQIAP+ take is gonna be irresistible to zoomers, might as well code it as such and slap some Easter Eggs in the background for the points. If nothing else because 1) Sony-Marvel wouldn't have the balls to spell it out at least until the series is done (ie. the Dumbledore gambit) and 2) it would probably be suicidal in this day and age to cast a non-trans (Hailee Steinfeld) as a trans character.

I heard Double Toasted to talk about this in their spoiler talk. I know Gwen is not trans in this movie, but her speech is a reference and inspiration from those coming out as trans or coming out as gay. Though there are hints in a room, that she supports trans rights. Captain Stacy has a trans rights flag pin on one of his shirts apparently.Spider-Verse Fans Have Compelling Evidence That Gwen Is Trans
