>Finally get to watching this movie
>Hear everyone say he just peter in this film so I come in with low expectations
>Just from the first 30 minutes alone let alone the whole film he already feels like a different person/character than peter at the same age
Trying to insert ditko era highschool peter or ultimate peter wouldn't even work in half these scenes. From their personalities alone especially OG ditko dickass peter, it would result in an entirely different movie. Was Cinemaphile just lying to me with bad faith arguments?

                But yes with a straight face that's what I'm saying. Ragnarok was really fun when it came out, Spiderman Homecoming was a semi decent intro the MCU peter before FFH and Infinity War undone all of his character development in that film, GOTG2 is the weakest of the franchise sure but it only barely beats out Iron Man 1 for me in terms of quality.

                I would probably only remove NWH and Avengers 1 in terms of being better than Iron Man 1 but they are still fun movies.

        You're just remembering the fun parts, and how surprised you were that they tried to make a good movie. Got some great actors, wrote a real script, had a story that didn't suck. Cape movies where they actually tried were rare back then. It's a good movie, but not great art. Runs out of gas long before the ending.

        Spider Verse movies have that same "actually putting effort into it" energy years after the MCU got fat and lazy. Doing something fresh and interesting is much harder now than it used to be, because audiences want something new and different, but without throwing out the core of what made cape movies a thing in the first place.

        Not that you care, but probably the "leap of faith" scene. The movies are just so much more entertaining than the samey, glossy feel you get from the MCU. Maybe the style isn't for you, but it rewards multiple viewings in the way MCU movies don't and Peter B. Parker is fucking great. It's not the white boy you're looking for, but not all movies are trying to be the same thing.

            The quality of a film is not about allegiance to source material, it's about how the elements come together to make a compelling story. I liked all the MCU Spider-Man movies, but they are not interesting from a cinema perspective. They're all pooped out from the same machine that for a long time managed to produce pretty satisfying stories. However they aren't even trying to be great films, they are product and puzzle pieces designed to fit into other product. That's not a diss, since that's Disney's stated actual intention. The Spider Verse movies are an obvious attempt to do something different, although if 10 years from now there have been a dozen mediocre sequels and spin offs and boring TV series, they could easily wear out their welcome too.

                I don't have to like them but IW/Endgame and NWH pulled off some crazy shit that put them in the cinema history books and was handsomely rewarded by audiences, all Spider-Verse has to claim is normalizing shitting on visuals and framerate when you can't come up with anything new

                True. We all know Cinemaphile is irrelevant in the real world and any amount of yammering about why a movie failed or succeeded is just working backwards from /misc/ views, but it is depressing that so many can't even enjoy good film. If they hate the artistry and frame rate of Spider-Verse so much they should be HAPPY the "real" Parker isn't in it. Also they will have to change all their complaints about the sequel when part 3 comes out and actually ends the narrative, and they will say all along that they knew how it was really going to end. Whatever is it is that lets them stay angry.

          See, I can honestly tolerate Miles insofar as it's interesting to watch an old and busted Peter Parker take on a younger protégé. The problem is when all the other Spiders start showing up and that dynamic gets pushed to the side with little room to breath throughout the second half of the movie. And as far as I know Pete and Miles' mentor relationship gets pushed back even further if not outright abandoned in the sequel and thus I had no interest in seeing it. All that said it still does nothing to excuse any of the BS mary sue abilities they gift to Miles in addition to his webs and spider-sense

        >Miles needs to be affirmed as Spider-Man by a mentor character and receive the official blessing and suit etc to go joint the fight everyone wanted him on for anyway
        Literally no one wanted him to join the fight. Peter kicked his ass and tied him up to prevent him from going because he believed he wasn't ready yet, and he wasn't. Miles had to go on his own volition and had to prove himself when all the other spider people didn't.

        >Miles needs to assume the dead Spider-Man's identity in order to be validated and cries when someone denies it to him and never even thinks of making something uniquely his own
        Comparing Peter to Miles in this case is very disingenuous. Peter was compared to Iron man but was never considered his direct "replacement", he was always considered "Spiderman". And Miles is just taking over for a Spiderman that had died. He has the Spiderman powers, and the city needed a Spiderman. His whole arc was just learning to fill that role with the second movie being about him making that role his own.

        >Miles needs every other Spider-Man to be a sociopath that lets people die so that he can be the only multiverse Spider-Man who wants to save his.. dad he's incredibly biased for (implying he might let non-family die for canon events)
        Him being the only one to object against the "canon events" could just as easily be explained by him not being an actual proper spider person, he is an anomaly, he wasn't meant to agree with it or even be Spiderman. We also don't fully know the legitimacy of the canon events and whether or not the other spider people were simply cherry picked by Miguel to most agree with him. There could just as well be a faction of spider people who are against him. There's also no evidence to suggest that he would have let non-family die for canon events, and even so of course he'd be biased towards saving his dad, ITS HIS DAD.

          They literally spend the whole movie trying to make space for him in the team and only abandon him when he fails to impress them, then he jumps off of a building and "I know Kung Fu"s years of Spider-Man training

          >Comparing Peter to Miles in this case is very disingenuous. Peter was compared to Iron man but was never considered his direct "replacement", he was always considered "Spiderman".
          Literally the whole plot is about Tony seeing Peter as his successor and leaving EDITH to him, which would turn him from Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man to Global Overseer Iron Spider i.e. Iron Man

          >And Miles is just taking over for a Spiderman that had died. He has the Spiderman powers, and the city needed a Spiderman. His whole arc was just learning to fill that role with the second movie being about him making that role his own
          He can be a spider-themed hero without calling himself "Spider-Man", he's met three Spider-Men and all three were Peter Parkers, meanwhile Gwen, Peni, and Porker all had their own monikers and if he was about "doing his own thing" he would've made a new identity for himself instead of stealing the name and the suit

            He's not operating in the same city as another Spiderman, when confined to his universe, he's the only spiderman left there. It's not some bullshit thing where he's operating alongside peter while sharing his name like in the mainline comics or insomniac games.

              He spends the whole movie tagging along with Pete, and then Gwen, and then the team, and only then do they test him, in total he spends maybe 2-3 hours away from the action at most, when Tony in Homecoming avoided Peter and told him to drop the Vulture for weeks, they were totally on board with him joining the fight if he could prove himself, and he pulled years of combat and swinging experience out of his ass with the leap of faith

              >Being his successor dosen't make him "Ironman" and even if it did, how would that compare to Miles being the new Spiderman?
              Having spider powers doesn't make Miles "Spider-Man", Tony literally knew and mentored Pete and wanted him to succeed him and left him his enforcing tools, meanwhile Miles simply accepts that he's supposed to be Spider-Man and never tries to be original

              >He's not operating in the same city as another Spiderman, when confined to his universe, he's the only spiderman left there.
              And? Gwen, Peni, Porker, etc are all the Spider-People of their universe and don't call themselves Spider-Man

              >I don't see anons getting angry that Terry McGinnis is called "Batman".
              Because Terry is a unique take on Batman that gets approved and coached by Bruce and doesn't overstay his welcome in media, do you think people would be angry at Miles if ITSV was his only appearance ever

              >Miles Morales : I can do both!
              Peter also wanted both, except he was ready to risk everything to save villains, whereas as far as we know Miles is only doing it because his dad is on the line, would he act the same if Kingpin's life was on the line?

        Those are just a bunch of reasons why you would rather watch a movie about regular Peter. It's like saying John Wick movies suck because he isn't James Bond. These movies are about a different character, and it's a good thing that they weren't married to the comics interpretation, because Miles is boring as fuck in print. The MCU Spider-Man movies are all mediocre films regardless of whether or not the main character met your expectations for an existing IP. Meeting misdirected preconceived notions of what a film is not trying to be has nothing to do with the quality of a film.

            OK, so you want more movies about your interpretation of Peter Parker. Pretty much everyone else will base their satisfaction level on all aspects of a film, and will be happy when there are surprises. One of the great things about the Verse movies is that, while they are filled with Easter eggs, you don't actually have to know all that lore to enjoy the movies on their own terms. It's the opposite of an MCU post credits scene where they drop a name or a symbol and all the fanboys cheer and the normies shrug. Well, the normies probably left when the credits started. That kind of pandering is fun and I'm not knocking it, but the Verse energy is just different. Dropping in art history jokes for different kinds of nerds is the same gag, done in a surprising way. I like that kind of playfulness. I didn't go into those movies hoping they were anything other than good. I actually had to be talked into going to the first one, because as everyone knows, comics MIles sucks. And then I thought the first was a fluke and that the second couldn't possibly be any good. I actually wished they'd just left well enough alone, because I didn't want them to tarnish the first movie with a cheap cash grab. I was happy to not have my expectations met, both times.

    The entire reason people have grown to hate Miles is that it's becoming increasingly clear the suits at Disney and/or Sony want him to replace Peter. That wasn't the case in the first Spider-Verse movie, or at least it wasn't abundantly clear. The first movie is essentially a tag team with Miles and Peter as co-protagonists, and the movie does more than enough to give Peter his due.

    Miles isn't a good character but nobody objects to him existing as such. What we object to is him replacing Peter. That's ALWAYS been the problem, and the criticism of Miles has increased in intensity as it has become clearer that replacing Peter is exactly what Disney, or Sony, or both, want.

        If you have kids or work with kids you'd know that the new direction they've taken for Spider-Man is to make Peter the leader of a group of Spider People. They probably intend to make the Spider-Man franchise a team-based property instead of a solo-based property with Peter Parker at the helm as it's leader.

        The branding is named 'Spidey and his Amazing Friends'.

        They have a cartoon and lots of books.

        Long term this probably isn't a bad idea. Little girls can get attached to Gwen (Ghost Spider), that outfit and the character were a real slam dunk. Little boys of color can get attached to Miles. Peter is for everyone. I don't know how much I like the prospect of Spider-Man becoming something like the X-men or the Fantastic Four but it isn't a terrible idea from a sales perspective.

          Little girls literally never fell for being pandered to in boys' media ever and Gwen has always been nothing but coombait, and little brown boys never needed Goku to be brown to get attached to him, so maybe don't give them shitty knockoff Spider-Man hoping they get attached to him instead of the real thing, and especially don't try to normalize that retardation across other media lest companies start adding female Gokus and white Black Panthers and gay Supermen into every piece of their media in equal roles thinking that's normal and healthy.

        The masses preferred Peter solo, then Sony and Disney decided to force everyone to get used to Spider-Man becoming two man Power Rangers and willingly ate losses in various media until they made that happen, THAT is the problem.

        What is it about Miles that made giant corporations decide to force him into the largest Marvel hero IP at any cost and at the risk of tanking it forever, and why did no other character before get that treatment, when the MO up until then was to not fix what isn't broken?

        Maybe people would eventually start accepting that Batman is now always a two man act of Bruce and an intelligent talking dolphin he wheels around in a Radio Flyer after DC spent hundreds of millions trying to make it happen in various media and losing money they would've made on solo Batman media, but wouldn't it be confounding and bewildering if solo Batman media was doing fine and growing at a healthy rate?

            There isn't, his most popular outing yet, ATSV, had identical domestic demographics to No Way Home (the movie about three Peter Parkers) except far less people came out to see it, meanwhile it's the second worst performing Spider-Man overseas and international audiences don't care about Miles at all, there's simply no way to justify spending a dollar on Miles for a 2x return when that same dollar spent on Peter would've had a 10x return given the Pareto principle

                Can you not read? In America the same demographics turned out for both NWH and ATSV, except they turned out in far fewer numbers for ATSV, meaning he didn't capture any new racial demographics, he just attracts the same exact domestic audience but far less of it, meaning you could've done it with Peter and made far more money, especially since you'd be attracting the entire international market that doesn't care for race-swaps.

Then the thing that really hammered it in is when just a minute or two after that their running into all of these different Spiderman and we gotta make this one white Spiderman look lame by crying but then surprise surprise what do we have here, super cool black vr girl Spiderman, let's focus on her and make her important.

        I honestly didn't notice (in the sense that I wasn't keeping track of how many people were black compared to everyone else). The movie was good enough that the race stuff sort of fell away for me.

        Next film they can offset it by having a ton of doomed Gwens. I remember reading that was supposed to be a part of the film that got cut/segmented into the last film. So the next film should be rife with blondes.

        Could be cool to get some appearances from Silk though, the films don't really have notable Asian presence outside of Peni.

        Perhaps this is an opportunity for you to log off, take a step back and start to self-reflect why that was your first thought and why it gets under your skin that you aren’t fed just white characters on a constant stream in order for you to feel safe and be able to turn your brain off and just enjoy a fucking cartoon movie.

        >But it’s pandering!!

        And it isn’t pandering to cast most characters always white in media? Think real hard now. No creative person ever thinks “I need to perfectly reflect population demographics in my art or it’s inaccurate and bad”. No fiction in history has done that because it’s a ridiculous notion. What you’re thinking about is being conditioned since birth to accept just one very one-sized, lazy and biased way to depict people and consider it as the acceptable norm without any basis for it or real justification.

              We're talking about ATSV, in which Gwen is just Miles' romance interest repurposed from Peter, Peter B is sidelined, the rest don't appear or do in villain roles.

              So the equivalent would be a Blade multiverse movie focusing on a white guy Blade romancing a Blade Safron, being jealous of another white Blade for dating her before him, teaming up with an Indian Blade and another white girl Blade, against a Latino Blade and a pregnant white woman Blade and a 90s joke black Blade, where the real Blade shows up in two scenes total and betrays his core values in both so the main white guy Blade can appear as the Bladest Blade in the multiverse.

                It’s not the equivalent because you already got one movie with primarily white Spider-men representing the multiverse. If your dumb muh Blade argument involved having one Blade movie already with majority of the cast being other black Blades nobody would care if you introduced more white and Japanese, Latino ones because it adds variety and is different from the other variants. Your argument is stupid and disingenuous because you just can’t handle Miles existing and being dark skinned Spider-man

    then you misunderstood the movie, he is supposed to be just Peter but with the swagger of a black teen. It's like the entire point of his character

      If Miles were White no one would be able to tell the difference between him and Peter. At least Miggy had a different origin.

        Man, the original 2099 series has its flaws but this image really made me want to re read it. Miguel really does have a good origin and cast

    May as well just call him Peter Darker cause that's what the bum is. He literally exists because Marvel thought Non-White people can't relate to characters that are White or just look nothing like them in general. And that is more racist than anything else.
