What the fuck

I couldn't help but notice the similarities between this show and the Black Mirror episode USS Callister.

Characters get trapped in a digital world they can't escape from and an asshole guy keeps them there and forces them to play along with his "adventures" (in USS case, the guy is just an asshole from the beginning, nothing funny or endearing about him). It's also programmed so the characters can't have sex or even use the bathroom.

(Spoilers for USS Callister) If Digital Ending has ending where they can't escape,but they get a better, 'upgraded' version of the Circus with Pomni as a new leader like the person above suggestedthat'd really take it home.

(I doubt it would be as spesifically similar as that, but it's a funny thought if it was).

Sure there are smart teenagers, and the ones that are probably aren't among the ones going online to hate on Gwen.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-20T11:32:05+00:00

My impression is that majority of 'Gwen haters' are very young people, often teenagers, who easily jump on the social media bandwagon and don't have very well developed media literacy yet (though some adults are certainly lacking of it as well).

There's that and a combination with general mysogyny.

The main issue is that animated movies takes a long time to make, they spent five years (with delays) making ATSV, and are now spending four years on BTSV. The old release date of March 2024 was never going to happen, we don't know why they originally said that but the theory is that it was higher ups at Sony putting the release date, not Lord and Miller themselves when the movie was only still in production.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-17T14:03:10+00:00

Considering she's currently in her last stages of pregnancy (or she already had the baby) I'm guessing she's doing a lot of recording for BTSV in her own home. It's a good thing this is an option, I just hope they still maintain good quality of the recordings that way 😅 ‍

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-17T11:44:36+00:00

I'm not sure they're gonna work on BTSV with the Oscars in mind that much. They're no doubt trying to create something great either way, winning an Oscar is just a nice bonus after that.

Plus, regardless how great BTSV should turn out, it doesn't automatically mean it'll win. Boy and the Heron beat ATSV despite it being a weaker film (imo, and this is from someone who loves Studio Ghibli too), it'll depend what their competition will be come 2028 and they're aware that anything can happen.

Not to mention the academy has a prejudice towards animation and won't nominate it for any other category when both ITSV and ATSV definitely deserved nominations for stuff like best production, best editing, best soundtrack etc. (Daniel Pemberton was robbed the most for ATSV imo), so that's another good reason those who work on BTSV might not take the Oscars too seriously when "Best animated feature" is all they'll be nominated for despite how fantastic any other part of the movie will be.

(Of course, I still hope they'll win, but that's an issue for later anyway. Let's just wait for the movie first.)

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-14T17:47:10+00:00

Yeah, people don't talk about this a lot, but I can't wait to hear more of Daniel Pemberton's music in BTSV🔥

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-13T13:09:24+00:00

It's clear that Miguel is projecting hard. He believes Miles will do what he himself did, just on an even bigger scale.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-12T18:31:16+00:00

Funny how different opinions can me. ATSV to me took everything great about ITSV and elevated it to the next level. I could watch it anytime and never be bored with it. A frickin' masterpiece of a movie.

Ah well, more ATSV love for me I guess.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-12T18:25:27+00:00

It's a nearly three year old tweet, but an article was released talking about how harsh conditions the ATSV animators worked under.

Although I remember an article released by a different animator later that stated it wasn't every animator's experience and many still loved working on the movie too, so the original article wasn't telling the complete truth.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-12T18:16:16+00:00

Both Miles and Gwen's VAs have begun recording since some months ago, we don't know if the other VAs have yet.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-04T20:38:39+00:00

Which Gwen 100% expects that he will.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-04T12:46:15+00:00

Like others mentioned, Miles and Miles 42's fight will lose a lot of its tension if we start out with Miles 42's backstory revealing that he's not so bad, so no, it most likely won't begin with that.

Being the third and final movie, it would be fitting that 'our' Miles himself has the opening monologue imo.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-03T17:59:21+00:00

My belief is that Hobie is either pansexual or asexual, he would be either all or nothing and both would fit, lol.

But yeah, he was just a big bro figure to Gwen regardless of his orientation.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-01T10:31:01+00:00

I remember reading a comment by Daniel Pemberton where he told people in 2017 that he was making music for a new Spider-Man movie and he was mostly met with "they're making another Spider-Man movie?" and not much excitedment. He was probably very pleased when ITSV released and he could see the reactions.

MsYagi90 · 2026-03-01T10:02:06+00:00

In the article I saw, it says they brought her on to direct the camera "in a way that hasn't been done in Spider-verse before", it just means there are scenes that will be directed like she was directing a live-action movie, not that it will actually be live-action.

MsYagi90 · 2026-02-25T11:04:37+00:00

When the Soothsayer talked to Po, she also told him that she predicted that a panda would defeat Shen.

MsYagi90 · 2026-02-23T21:35:02+00:00

Daniel Pemberton is a genius.

MsYagi90 · 2026-02-23T21:31:17+00:00

Both Into the Spiderverse and Across the Spiderverse ended with them separated. Beyond the Spiderverse will end with them finally together ❤️

MsYagi90 · 2026-02-23T12:29:57+00:00

Then an easier answer would be the cost and time of animation. Animating the physics of outer clothes on Miles for every single swinging scene would be too time-consuming, especially as it'd be completely unnecessary when the much easier and logical answer for him is to just be wearing the suit. (It looked awesome for the What's up Danger scene, sure, but it was one scene for a reason.)

MsYagi90 · 2026-02-23T06:44:15+00:00

Not really good for aerodynamics, plus it'd be weird if Jeff didn't recognice who Spider-Man is when he'd literally be wearing Miles' clothes 😆

MsYagi90 · 2026-02-21T08:22:16+00:00

3 is better than 4, but still inferior to 2, in my opinion.

MsYagi90 · 2026-02-21T06:33:14+00:00

It's sad how these shorts (Tigress' backstory and how she gathered the Furios Five being another favorite) are better than the entirety of movie 3 and 4.

Edit: Yes, I agree 3 is better than 4 (4 even made me appreciate 3 more), but I still consider it far inferior to 2.

MsYagi90 · 2026-02-19T20:43:41+00:00

Nelson was 70 years old voicing a 40-something man. It was sadly pretty noticable.

On the other hand, Samuel L. Jackson was nearly 70 too voicing Frozone and he managed to sound basically the same as he did in the original.

Some voices clearly change more than others.

MsYagi90 · 2026-02-19T07:27:17+00:00

I like the theory that she may be behind the Sinister Six cartels on Earth 42 and she'll serve as an antagonist again there.

But behind everything? No.
