#spider man: across the spider verse spoilers

Can we talk really quick about how great The Spot's character design was in Across the Spider-Verse as he progressed throughout the movie, and how much posture played a role?

The animation team did a fantastic job of changing the same body type from awkward, gangly, and out of shape to intimidating, uncanny, and otherworldly, and a big portion of that was just a color swap and a change in posture.

I don't think it would have worked that well with a lot of other body types, and it's really a testament to their design choices and ability as artists.

ACROSS THE SPIDERVERSE SPOILERS: BEWARE

Listen its already been 3 days since the movie released and im already seeing people drawing the spot as white like!!! My guy, that man is not white- like we literally get an in-color picture of him in the movie:

Look, I know he was white in ITSV, but they just retconned his design! Just like they did with Miguel from the end of ITSV.

So stop color picking off the bagel guy from 2018 or im exploding your house (for legal reasons this is a joke but you know what i mean)

Just rewatched spiderverse and knowing all abt the spot kinda makes it hit a little different. Like his intro he's just talking abt how it's his first time stealing and he has no control over his spots and is just a complete mess 😭😭 but then he starts telling his whole story in all the chaos w the shopkeeper and I think maybe he's just desperate for someone to hear him. He's lost his job, he's lost everyone he knows, he's lost his own face. He's lost everything, even his name, and no one to tell, let alone anyone to understand this pain he's gone through.

And then all he wants is someone to take him seriously. He's lost everything he's ever known, his own reflection in the mirror, so can he at least have this?

Then I realised miles and the spot are almost a mirror of eachother. The spot only wants someone to take him seriously, to hear him, and miles understands. He tells Miguel that the spot just wants to be taken seriously. He's gone through this in ITSV, and he continues to go through this now. And then miles just. decides to put an end to it. he tells everyone to stop calling him 'kid.' (And hobie saying 'now he's getting it' or something just ugh perfect) And he proves to everyone that he's not just a clueless naive 15 year old, he escapes all those spiderpeople, he shows everyone he belongs there, he is spiderman. (and fuck Miguel for saying he wasn't meant to be) And he's going to save his dad, fuck whoever tells him he can't because he will.

And we see this with Miles' great expectations piece, it mirrors the spot's standing in that one scene, and they mirror eachother.

They created eachother, and miles understands the spot in a way that no one else does, or maybe he just hears and he listens, and maybe that's all that the spot wanted in the first place.

Miles is a recognisable reflection in place of the literal one the spot has lost. Or something. Idk

For a movie featuring basically zero explicitly queer characters, Across the Spider-Verse was pretty fucking queer.

Spoilers for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse under the cut.

If Miguel is keeping his abilities from the comics, I do wonder why he didn’t try biting Miles in order to stun him while he had Miles pinned down. I can think of a few explanations for this:

Miguel was too distracted by his rage towards Miles, which would make sense as he ignored everyone else's demands for him to stop.

The writers didn't know how to seamlessly incorporate an explanation for Miguel's abilities in dialogue, so having Miguel try and bite Miles would be misinterpreted as Miguel trying to kill him.

The creators knew exactly what their fandom would do with that scene.
