Incredibly overrated...

Hehehehe. Hehehehe.


What celebrated and widely acclaimed film doesn’t get called overrated? You know this film has made it now!

But hey look, here’s another “grown ass man” expectedly and mandatorily moaning about social justice in today’s movies and world. Awww... aren’t you a special thing? Well, I’m sowwy but “tough” Aryan justice films just aren’t in demand these days other than by insular and limp dick incels venting on the internet and constantly crying about how everything is so politically correct these days (in other words, “why can’t we say asshole and bigoted things like we used to back in the good ol’ days with no consequences? Save us right wing gods!”). You know, for apparently being so anti-pc, youse big boys sure get offended to the extreme every time you see and hear things that aren’t, well, keeping things the way they used to be back in the “manly” days. The more diverse and inclusive the world gets, the more the big backwards boys like you say NO NO MOMMY! Lol.

Poor iceflakes. If only you lot could see how triggered and banal you sound with your anti-SJW drivel. Sure, y’all have a right to speak out against what challenges your views. But knowing where you folks are coming from, then let me tell you to simply keep rewatching and jackin’ it to 1915’s Birth of a Nation and mindless presidential speeches that speak directly to your heart. Let go of this Hollywood obsession because the more free thinking people over there are clearly not listening to you — and they shouldn’t. You see plenty of your preferred propaganda on FOX, the White House, hundreds of red pill channels, and even on local news (thanks to the Sinclair Broadcasting Group).

So why u mad Festus Rogan Shapiro? Hollywood has their problems but your types cannot stand the things Hollywood does that are actually good. You apparently hate the elite so why even bother with the non-regressive entertainment world, ya little schmuck ho.

I liked it.

A lot.

And I went in expecting very little.

Box office is fine. Just two weeks $150m global, budget $90m.

Metascore is 87 and imdb is 8.7. Looking at imdb's now-playing it's the highest rated, with the next three metascores in the low 70s. What makes Spidey-Verse so much better?

i won't speak for anyone but myself, of course, but i love this film, & right now have it slotted as my #1 of the 121 films i've seen that were released in 2018, & that has nothing to do with any daft social justice advocacy or anything silly like that.

spider-verse is the best attempt yet at bringing the spirit and feel of a comic book vision to film. you'll find chaykin-isms, kirby crackle, & the trippy wierdness of bill sienkiewicz's art in its animation, & if it was just that, if it was only getting by on looks alone, it would still be a great achievement. but it's a real story too. no other spiderman film to date has really captured the spirit of the character this one does. it's a movie with genuine heart, one that i think will ring true to every guy who loved the character as a kid & imagined what it would be like to be in that position. at the very least, it rang true to me.

if you don't dig it, then fair enough. i'm not out to change your mind, but i don't think there's anything too compelling in saying that all the people who say they like it are only doing so out of feeling that this movie is compensating for grievances of one sort or another. i doubt there's any reason to believe that, and i suspect that is just a bit of your own confirmation bias coming through in your reasoning.

I agree

Typical ill-equipped critic. Name-dropping movies, pulling the "social justice" card, and then talking about the box office scores to justify the opinion.
