So why doesn’t it get a perfect score? Only because of the principle of the theatrical cut not being honored. Filmmakers, don’t do this. Or at the very least, if you do, include the alternate takes somewhere on the disc. Plot: What’s it about? Video: How’s it look? Audio: How’s it sound? Supplements: What are the extras? The Bottom Line Plot: What’s it about? One possibility is that Sony doesn’t want to alienate any fans at all or get certain crowds all worked up about “woke.” It should be interesting indeed to see if Miles and Gwen (Hailee Steinfeld) get to be more than just friends in part three or if the movie will pull a Rey-Finn maneuver in fear of Chinese boycotts and stay in the ‘zone. Fortunately, the movie as it stands now speaks pretty clearly for itself, even if it doesn’t use specific words to do so.

Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Cast– Essentially just that – we get a look at the actors voicing their roles, their “interactions” and so forth.Indeed, it is the interpersonal relationships, and the internal conflict of the characters that really move the story along – the ‘canon events’ that are so essential to the narrative are quintessentially the driving force behind the Spider-man character, and every Spider-man must go through them, it’s what makes him who he is. So, when Gwen is struggling with her father due to her own story, it is immediately recognisable even though the catalyst is different. This shared tragedy unites Gwen and Miles, hence their being drawn (haha, geddit) together. Thereby in writing the characters from this standpoint, there is a huge emotional hook, one of understanding - and one of justice; so, when it comes to choosing one over many, it is easy, and the audience is on board.

Obscure Spiders and Easter Eggs– Six minutes probably isn’t enough time for us to get all the references hidden in this film. But it’s a start. Suffice it to say you could watch this movie ten times and still probably miss a few of these cleverly hidden items. Lyric Videos– Three total: “Annihilate” by Metro Boomin, Swae Lee, Lil Wayne and Offset, and “Calling” by Metro Boomin, Nav, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie and Swae Lee. Scratches, Score and The Music of the Multiverse– At only five minutes, we get a peek at what it took to score the film along with some of the musical choices in this one. Creating the Ultimate Spider-Man Movie– The obligatory “making of…” feature that tells of the trials and tribulations of how this movie was made, to make it bigger, better, etc. but still retain the magic that the first one had.Across the Spider-Verse probably doesn’t need yet another recommendation, but it gets it anyway. The 4K presentation is one that will work quite nicely as a show-off disc to demonstrate what your UHD TV can do, and the commentary is required listening for aspiring filmmakers or anyone interested in filmmaking. There’s plenty else touting all the design and tech, and the music videos make a good cherry on top. And Yet…
