I really appreciate these videos. You aren’t trying to dunk on others dismissing others opinions. Instead, you’re actually reading what they’re saying and giving your rebuttal and thoughts on that opinion, but not in a way that tries unjustify the opinions of others.
I would argue that ATSV's ending actually does land itself in a complete story. Not Myles's complete story, but rather Gwen's. Gwen finishes the film finding "her band" as well as reconciling with her father. Therefore, the ending does tell a complete story, just not the story we were necessarily as excited to see completed.
I’m happy to hear that other people love TASM2 as much as I do lol. I used to call it my guilty pleasure movie, but honestly I don’t feel guilty anymore! 😆 The cast and soundtrack are great. I can rewatch the movie multiple times and never get bored. I enjoy the story. It’s emotional, it’s fun, its visually appealing. I love it lol
0:22 thats me. Thx for reacting to my comment Sean. Really appreciate it. And to answer your question, i am glad they removed the mj scene. I prefer the ending we got with Spiderman still being a hero deapite losing Gwen. Real chad. Also that Rhino charging at Spiderman with Spideys theme gave me goosebumps.
I dont mind the cliff hanger tbh, I especially dont mind because we're getting the next part in less than a year. Plus the story resolved Gwen's arc in the movie, which means the next one will focus on Miles' arc of being spiderman. Out of your comparisons, I'd say it's most similar to how Infinity War ended. Thanos' story and quest got completed at the end and he finished his arc as the winner.
Following up in my comment shown in the video, it’s one of my favorites because of basically what you said and that all the different elements of the film come together really nicely.
As someone who was born in 06 and only 1 when the last Spider Man original movie came out I can say nostalgia has little to do with how good the Sam Raimi trilogy is. I grew up with Andrew’s films and vastly prefer Tobey’s Spiderman movies.
I wasn’t alive for the release of all 3 OG Raimi films, being born in 2008, I did grow up with them. My parents showed them to me when I was like 5 or 6, but while I liked them, I didn’t love them. I’ve only appreciated it more and more over the years. I noticed they are intense, emotionally riveting, thematically rich, goofy, fast paced, and so much more, especially the original which I’ve watched 20 times. That is proof that childhood nostalgia being the reason people love them is invalid.
Ay Sean Chandler, if your gonna do another Hot Takes video, here’s one for you. I think Topher Grace’s Eddie Brock/Venom is amazing. I like the casting choice for Topher Grace as the role, not perfect but close enough for me, I like the costume design, the motivation for hating Spider-Man/Peter Parker is great for him, and I just like how Eddie is like the opposite evil twin to Peter, it’s a much more interesting and unique take on the character and that just fits in the universe of Raimi’s Spider-Man. I honestly think that this is my fav Eddie/venom of all time.
I don't know how much of a hot take this is, but I believe No Way Home is the best Spiderverse film, and it's also my favorite Spiderman film period. Don't get me wrong, I love both ITSV and ATSV, but NWH just does more for me personally.
Sean, I just want to say: a) Your videos are great and I love your passion and how you communicate with your community. You're actually an inspiration to how I want to do my ranking videos on my channel going forward. b) I want to keep things in perspective. I grew up with Raimi's Trilogy, and as a kid I Loved all 3 of them. Heck, Spider-Man 3 was my favourite of the Trilogy as a kid. For a long time, I was so attached to them that I was initially dismissive of the Marc Webb and Jon Watts Movies because they weren't my childhood. However, as I got older, I realised that I connect to the Webb and Watts Films more and to me they feel more like what Stan Lee (R.I.P.) wanted for Spider-Man. Hence why you see me ranking the Garfield and Holland films above the Raimi Films. Ntm, I also realised Raimi's style isn't for me. c) I can respect other people's opinions as long as they respect mine and not act as if I "Objectively wrong" to have So many Movies ranked above SM2 and ITSV (I haven't seen ATSV Yet). d) I can understand why SM1 may still be your favourite because of your personal reasons you had mentioned in your Top 20 Favourite Comic Book Movies Video.
I agree with Emma and Andrew being the best on screen couple and alot of that is because they were genuinely together but after beyond the spider verse I wouldnt be suprised if Gwen and Miles end up being the best couple
I was born in 05, and I grew up with the Andrew ,and I guess technically the Tom Holland films, and I did have a lengthy stage where I didn’t like the Tobey Maguire movies. However as I’ve gotten older , more into film and understood the character of Spider-Man more I can now say Raimi’s Spider-Man 2 is my favourite Spider-Man movie, and quite possibly even my favourite movie of all time.
My hot-take is that Topher Grace is not awful in Spider-Man 3. The idea of him being small and dweeby reflects him as a negative Peter Parker. He isn't given enough time to really thrive as Venom because Sam Raimi hates the character and didn't give him the proper attention. But Grace's performance was ok and I'd love to see him return in a multiverse crossover movie with Tom Hardy.
As much as i love Tobey and Tom. Andrew Garfield is the best actor to have played Spiderman(Acting Wise) When he has to be angry or sad. His performance sells it. The 2 examples i can think of are: Obviously Gwens Death and when he meets his father for the first time in TASM 2's deleted scene
@@cyynical3299his accent is good. First one was well received and written because of the writers from Spider Man 2, Zodiac and Harry Potter. Not the 2nd one because it's written by Transformers writers
11:25 I think that was emo Peter Parker's reaction to hearing that hot take. 15:19 The thing that separates Across The Spider-Verse from something like Rise of Skywalker is that in Rise of Skywalker (or most other examples of bad fan service), the story serves the fan service is the priority rather than telling a good story it's using gimmicks to go "hEy yOU rEMebEr tHIs" meanwhile in Across the Spider-Verse the fan service serves the story and is always used to enhance it and there's plenty to love outside of the fan-service, so to sum it up the story should always come first and fan-service is no exception, if it helps the story, great and if it doesn't you shouldn't include it and that's why something like Rise of Skywalker doesn't work while Across the Spider-Verse does.
I’m so here for the TASM2 love. It was my favourite marvel movie for a long time. Probably the best thing for me is the soundtrack. Every spidey movie has had a top notch score. But boy did Hans Zimmer let it rip. The uplifting horns, the emotive strings, the synth production, the electro dubstep… I literally had the love themes for this movie playing in the background when I proposed to my wife! Not to mention everything else great about the movie. My favourite Spider-Man outfit! The acting chemistry, the cinematography, the action, the setting- there is a lot to love about this movie.
TASM2 is truly my favorite Spider-Man movie, and that's not a joke. I know it's too silly at times, but the acting, soundtrack, and amazing cinematography more than make up for that. It's one of the most gorgeous looking super-hero films ever made. Somehow this is a hot take, and I'll never understand why.
For me I just think the plot, pacing and villains are just plain awful. I'll admit the acting and cinematography are great but besides that I just hate it
I swear every time a movie has fan service in it it’s gonna have that one group of people hating on it and saying it’s only praised for said fan service😂 seriously if the movie’s so bad it shouldn’t be so difficult to criticize it before resorting to that malarkey, because Across the Spider-Verse is far from carried by fan service
I think the Amazing Spider-Man 2 has some of the highest highs of any Spider-Man movie, paired with some of the lowest lows. However, I do think the highs outweigh the lows greatly
I agree about it having the highest highs and the lowest lows. Unfortunately, I think the opposite of your last statement and feel like the lows outweigh the highs
@@tmm4195wrong! The good outweighs the bad. The good: - Chemistry - Visuals - Cinematography - Fight scenes - Casting - Good moments (Spider Man saving a kid from bullies, etc) - Soundtrack - Andrew Garfield - Electro (should have been the focus) - Suit - Web swinging scenes The bad: - Green Goblin and Rhino - Plot (too much set up)
@@arinhossain2100 You have plot under bad, but the plot is the main thing about a movie. If the plot is bad, the movie is mostly bad. Not to mention this movie also has way too many plots going on. Visuals and web swinging don’t mean much when the plot is all over the place. Not even Andrew and Emma’s chemistry could save this movie
@@tmm4195 still, there are more good then bad about TASM 2. All it's miss for TASM 2 was a good plot. But everything else is good. It's not a bad movie. It's entertaining and fun but flawed
My hot take is that I loved Across the Spiderverses ending! I honestly loved the whole third act (everything after the nueva york chase). The conclusion of gwens arc is beautiful, and the scene of miles swinging through earth 42 and hallucinating was so emotionally powerful and isnt being talked about enough. I felt that Miles was given payoff within the story as well, earlier on with the miguel confrontation and also when he tells his mum that hes spider man. That whole final scene was perfect to me, and I honestly felt like it wrapped everything up pretty well whilst also clearly leading into Beyond. Loved the film.
I honestly don't understand why people need resolution in a part 1 of movies, the definition of the term (part one of) means incomplete. The difference between Avengers and Spider verse is that Infiniti War and End Game is not a part 1 and two, it's two separate movies completing one story were across the spider-verse and beyond the spider-verse is one long story. Watch any TV show with a continuous plot, and if they have an episode with a part 1 and 2, part 1 will definitely cut off in the exciting part with no resolution, it's just more excepted because it's a tv show but it makes a lot of sense
Hey Sean! I would love to see a "Reacting to your hot movie takes" video, I reckon it would be awesome. Keep up the good work, love these types of videos.
My hottest take is probably into the spider verse is overrated. Idk what it is but I just never connected with that movie like other people have. That being said I LOVED across the spider verse and can’t wait for the payof that movie sets up. For a part 1 they nailed it and I just hope they can stick the landing.
Here's a hot take that'll probably get me burnt: Spider-Man 2 is the worst of the Raimi Trilogy. Most of the characters in the movie aren't likeable at all. Mary Jane is very manipulative, Peter's decisions (such as buying a ticket to MJ's play he supposedly doesn't have money for it) are all stupid, Harry is very unsympathetic (and it makes no sense why he would sell the apartment in the first movie while supposedly knowing about Peter's struggles), and Doc-Ock is not only very reckless throughout the film, but also not smart with his plan to rebuild the machine, and it's very contrived he never gets caught throughout the city. The movie does have some good bits with Aunt May and JJJ is still as funny as ever though, but that's about it. (I would explain more, but you asked to keep it as brief as possible.)
I just came from the theater from watching Across the Spiderverse, and as one that definitely sufferers from that out-of-theater hype of a movie, as of right now it's my favorite Spiderman movie. It will most likely lower in my ranking but the initial adrenaline after seeing a great movie and to talk about it with friends and family is one of the best feelings you can have in my opinion. Loving these hot takes videos, and I think it brings the people of the movie community together that just want to talk civilly about movies. Thanks for bringing us together Sean.
Oh the nickle back call back to “hero” 👏🏻👏🏻, across the spider verse is one of the best spider man movies I’ve ever seen but my heart till this very day goes with Toby’s spider man and Andrew’s series, and no way home, and yeah know the rest of the entire spider man movies.
Yeah I think Spider-verse is an amazing story and a great movie, but the animation style… idk what it is, but I just feel sick when I watch it. I’ve tried a few times and I just can’t get through it, which sucks cause like I said I think it’s great
My hot take is that TASM 1 was only so disliked because at the time people were wanting/expecting another Tobey movie and therefore went into it not wanting to like it. As a movie it had to take more risks as it didn’t have a fan base who had no point of reference to a real Spider-man (Sam’s Spider-man) and who’s early fans would’ve watched it as it looked like a fun film at the time that brought together a lot of people who had recently suffered a tragedy OR a fan base that is easy to please as long as the characters drops cheesy one liners every second and fits in their place in the MCU rather than being just a good character (interesting how Toms best spiderman movie is the one relying on his predecessors.) I even think NWH has made some people realise that Andrew was and has the better spiderman (at least his first movie.)
Spider-Man 2 is my favorite film (Raimi version) I love it and I guess I can see what your getting from the problems but Peter having so much having being a teenager, M.J relation ship, troubles with his best friend and being Spider-Man is honestly kinda my favorite part because you shouldn’t be surprised that he can take all this but you are. Oh yeah and Doc Oc = it’s a gift.
1: I didn’t like Across The Spider-Verse 2: While I do like it I don’t think Into The Spider-Verse is anywhere near as amazing as people make it out to be 3: I like Spider-Man 3 4: I like Topher Grace’s Venom 5: I think Mary Jane is overhated 6: I like Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin mask 7: I like emo Peter (And not in the ironic/meme worthy sense that so many other people do, I think he’s *legitimately* well done) 8: I hate Tom Holland’s homemade suit from Homecoming 9: While I agree that it’s a bad movie I don’t think Morbius is the utter trainwreck that everyone else seems to think it is, it’s not good but it’s not awful 10: I prefer Peter Parker as an adult rather than as a teenager
It was interesting hearing so much love for The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Because I will admit I’m someone who doesn’t like it. When I have to go rewatch it, it’s one of those “do I have to?” Kinda thing. I will say tho, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has the ABSOLUTE BEST live action suit in a Spider-Man movie!
8:05 money doesn't equal out to or in any way accurately represent the quality of a product, some people will simply feed into it and watch it with their brains shut off, so not a good thing to bring up.
Here's a lot (man i gotta wait to finish the video next time) Spider-Man 3 is not as bad as people say it is, and Emo Peter Parker was part of the mid 2000s
ATSV is very good, I might even say great. My score is currently sitting around an 8.5/10. Could go up to a 9. But I think people are ignoring any flaws in the film because of their recency bias. It has pretty basic issues that a “perfect” movie usually does not. It isn’t a complete movie. It isn’t. And more important than the abrupt ending, it’s the fact that absolutely no plot points or character arcs are truly resolved in the end. As a matter of fact, they spend the last 20-30 minutes setting up new ones, and giving us even more questions. I know it’s a part 1 of 2. But talking about the next movie to justify a perfect score for this one doesn’t work. And it doesn’t make this film be able to stand on its own two feet. Once we’re a few months removed from the third one, I think I’ll be able to watch the first by itself, and the third by itself. But the second one has no third act/final battle. And he’s doesn’t even deal with his other self as a final battle, which should be pretty easy. Dealing with that situation and then joining Gwen and the others looking at the city into what’s next was the way to go. Cut out a bit of filler, then add that to the end. I just think the “maybe the greatest comic book films of all time” or “one of…” is forced by spectacle, recency bias, and now some people that I e talked to that deny the points I’ve made there because they are delusional.
That’s exactly how I feel I felt so disappointed at the end thinking how I was sat there for 3 hours just for it to abruptly end with no answers and yet people are calling it the best comic book movie of all time. I’m just gonna wait for the next one to come out then rewatch it as a whole and see how I feel about it then.
In regards to the “.. not a complete story” argument, if this whole trilogy was broken down into a series with 3 seasons and the ending of this movie was the finale of season 2, why do I feel like nobody would bat an eye? But since it’s a movie, many people seem to be heavily criticizing it? Just a thought 🤷🏻♂️
In a sense that's kind of how it goes down when it comes to the "to be continued!" criticisms. As far as I'm concerned, cliffhangers are going to cliffhanger.
@@ikedatike2533 yea, maybe it’s just me but I didn’t mind in the slightest.. knew what it was going into it and it definitely did it’s job in getting me extremely excited for Beyond the Spider-Verse
@@kvk3315 yeah same here man. My only real criticism I have with this movie is too much too fast as in too much information to process in a fixed amount of time The pacing was great despite my criticism
No one would bat an eye because you’re watching TV for free, you’re not trekking out to a theater, paying for an overpriced ticket and receiving an incomplete story that you weren’t warned even had a cliffhanger (unless you’re really paying hard attention to any Spider-Man movie news whatsoever, but I doubt most general audiences were).
@@DamienBarriga I feel like most fans of the first movie or anyone who has any type of TH-cam or social media presence knew it was a Part 1. And I pay like 15$ a month for an HBO subscription and I’d bet every season finale of every series on there ends on a cliffhanger.. and idk about you but 15$ a month as opposed to 15$ one time admission fee is a steeper price if your only argument is having paid for it
2. Across the spider verse is my runner up (only behind 2002 which is my favorite movie of all time). I do think across the spider verse is a much better movie but I much prefer spider man 2002 if that makes sense 2. Into the spider verse is my least favorite spider man movie by far and the only one that I feel is a chore to get through
18:43 I wouldn´t say the mixture of animation styles was ugly, but for me, sometimes I couldn´t get what was going on. It felt like a Michael Bay Transformers movie
It’s a great movie but I’m shocked that it’s no. 1 on LB which does not make any sense, it definitely deserves at least a top 15-30 but no. 1 are you kidding me? Higher than godfather, 2001. Dark knight, etc.??. They should stop overhyping every single new movie that is great. E. G. John wick 4, guardians 3, etc. ppl make it seem like they are the best movies of all time when they are just good movies
I mean Spider Man Across the Spider-Verse is one of the best movies of all time but I wouldn't say it's number 1. The Dark Knight, The Batman, and Logan are better then Across the Spider-Verse
For a movie to be the greatest film of all time it will have to beat out over 100 years of classic films. That's not likely to happen in today's age but for me, I honestly think that Avengers: Endgame is the greatest movie of all time. I have watched thousands upon thousands of movies from each decade but nothing gave me the feeling that both Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame did. In my opinion, the two greatest movies I've ever watched.
Infinity war was bad imo. Endgame was good but boring till the ending. Not really anything note worthy in the writing department, or the acting and cinematography. Just another big cgi blockbuster
I think into the spider verse is a really solid b+ movie, although people saying it's the best Spiderman movie are missing a major point, is that the action sequences of the movie are a major drawback, is pretty mediocre and offers nothing new In the name of merging different art styles, the action feels disorienting, and sometimes you can't really tell who's punching who Also I think the cut out animated style of spider punk comes across as really weird, and also he looks somehow different than the rest of the characters, even weirder. Live action and Lego characters don't feel as jarring somehow. Also I think the movie ends on such a high that it makes us forget about the shortcomings which occurred in earlier parts
If I didn’t miss the initial community post, this would’ve been my argument: I think Topher Grace was the right actor to play Venom. Sure he wasn’t as shredded as he’s usually portrayed, but neither was Tom Hardy. I can see how Raimi tried to use Venom by trying to make Eddy the dark version of nerdy Peter, and then make Peter the bully he defeated. And for the parts with Eddy, Topher Grace does a good job at portraying the wimpy nerd that Peter was. So I think that Venom was a little over hatted, sure he would’ve worked better for a potential Spider-Man 4, and his persuasion of Sandman doesn’t make a whole lot of sense either, but for the parts that it’s a nerd becoming a bully, it works well for me.
The design was bad too, and I think some of the cheesiness ruined him. I’d honesty defend Ryan as green lantern, there are so many instances where the actor could do it wel if the material was better
I love movies but just can't get into the spider verse movies I loved the 90s spiderman show and i do like some anime Suppose it is a hot take i do think they are overrated, some people saying best movie ever and i just don't buy it
I Personally Think TASM 2 Is One Of The Best Spider-Man Movies. I think both of The TASM Movies are WAY Better then Spider-Man 3 even though it has great memes. Also The Spider-Verse Movies are not Overrated. Anyone who says that needs to rewatch them Because They're Masterpieces.
- I love the TASM movies too. They are my favorite Spider Man movies apart from No Way Home. I would only say the first TASM was better than Spider Man 3 and possibly TASM 2.
Bro am still figuring out , how into the spiderverse is known to be the best spidey movie. A lot of ppl liked it. Am rewatching it on netflix every now n then to test if I like it 😂. I generally like animated flicks just like live action.
Hey I gotta question Sean. Do you think that they should Tobey and Andrew back for just group movies, or continue standalone movies with them or just leave the characters alone
I’m 25 now and I’ll say this, I grew up with Sam rami spider man and the animated series spider man. That trilogy holds a very special place in my heart where I put spider man 1 and spider man 2 in my top 3. Across the spider verse yeah I believe that was a amazing movie probably the best (SPIDERMAN) comic based movie of the series. But I still go with the original series.
Look I love movies and it’s very hard for me to look at any movie and say it’s awful. Comic book movies are my very favorite and spider-man is my favorite hero. I really enjoy TASM1 but TASM2 is one of the 2 worst theater experiences I’ve ever seen when it comes to the movie itself. There was way too much going on in the movie. I do think the idea of Gwen dying was great but terrible timing. If they built it up through TASM3 and at the end she dies then I would have been on board but they didn’t. I’m so glad they scrapped it and I do feel bad for Andrew and glad he got his redemption in NWH. EDIT: In regards to the Rami trilogy, I love the Rami trilogy…but I have never cringed more hard at a scene in any move ever than I have when Tobey dances in Spider-Man 3. I skip it every time but i still enjoy most parts of it.
Hot take: Homecoming the best spidy film. People give it way to much garbage because iron man is in the film and he’s not really in it that much. He acts as a father figure to Peter and their relationship is unique and special. Also it tells a traditional Spider-Man story in the mcu, the vulture is essentially just a better version of doc oc, and the twist of peters prom dates dad being the villain is a classic twist the way Osborn was. Sure he had a suit with powers but he was still learning how to be Spider-Man and how great power comes with great responsibility as he quickly learns from almost getting his friends killed in dc
Raimi's Spider-Man 2 will probably always be my favorite Spidey movie. I can admit nostalgia plays a factor for sure, but that movie was seriously lightning in a bottle. Perfect casting for every character, super tight and personal story, best score of probably any Marvel movie honestly, and still has the most memorable fight scene of any Spidey movie imo. I mean Raimi's casting for Jameson was so perfect that Marvel STILL uses JK Simmons for that role lmao.
This shouldn’t have to be a hot take but…..The first two acts of Across the Spiderverse is dull, predictable, and repetitive. It is entirely saved by its third act.
In all honesty, I agree with some of the Spider-Verse criticisms… I think both of these films are visually amazing, but I also think they are being massively overrated! Especially this new one, who people are calling it a masterpiece, best animated film ever, best superhero film ever, best Spider-Man film ever, best film ever, blah blah… As you said yourself, it’s recency bias! However I do disagree with most people’s criticism of this film because of its cliffhanger ending. That’s what cliffhangers are meant to do! They’re meant to leave you on the edge and tease what’s to come… It’s almost like audiences are so use to their MCU films being all wrapped up by the end and for every character to live happily ever after, that they can’t cope with a cliffhanger ending because it doesn’t give them the satisfaction…

I would argue that ATSV's ending actually does land itself in a complete story. Not Myles's complete story, but rather Gwen's. Gwen finishes the film finding "her band" as well as reconciling with her father. Therefore, the ending does tell a complete story, just not the story we were necessarily as excited to see completed.
Exactly!
Yes but her story is kinda half complete now, her self Journey is complete but she now has to go find and rescue miles.
This was a complete movie, compared to Deathly Hallows Part 1 which was half of 1 movie.
What does that have to do with anything when we're shadowing Miles for 90% of the runtime
Not really. Her universe is now in danger and she still has to find Miles.

Nice to hear that, I hated the film so much initially. Though now, it’s not bad, I just hate all the Sinister Six setup the movie had

You mean like:
Infinity War,
Empire Strikes Back,
Catching Fire,

Two Towers
Infinity War has an ending. The conflict introduced in the beginning is entirely resolved.
Not all cliffhangers are the same
I dont mind the cliff hanger tbh, I especially dont mind because we're getting the next part in less than a year. Plus the story resolved Gwen's arc in the movie, which means the next one will focus on Miles' arc of being spiderman. Out of your comparisons, I'd say it's most similar to how Infinity War ended. Thanos' story and quest got completed at the end and he finished his arc as the winner.
Don't forget Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.
One of the spiderman moments of all time
Following up in my comment shown in the video, it’s one of my favorites because of basically what you said and that all the different elements of the film come together really nicely.
As someone who was born in 06 and only 1 when the last Spider Man original movie came out I can say nostalgia has little to do with how good the Sam Raimi trilogy is. I grew up with Andrew’s films and vastly prefer Tobey’s Spiderman movies.

I wasn’t alive for the release of all 3 OG Raimi films, being born in 2008, I did grow up with them. My parents showed them to me when I was like 5 or 6, but while I liked them, I didn’t love them. I’ve only appreciated it more and more over the years. I noticed they are intense, emotionally riveting, thematically rich, goofy, fast paced, and so much more, especially the original which I’ve watched 20 times. That is proof that childhood nostalgia being the reason people love them is invalid.
Ay Sean Chandler, if your gonna do another Hot Takes video, here’s one for you. I think Topher Grace’s Eddie Brock/Venom is amazing. I like the casting choice for Topher Grace as the role, not perfect but close enough for me, I like the costume design, the motivation for hating Spider-Man/Peter Parker is great for him, and I just like how Eddie is like the opposite evil twin to Peter, it’s a much more interesting and unique take on the character and that just fits in the universe of Raimi’s Spider-Man. I honestly think that this is my fav Eddie/venom of all time.
The way you described why someone might not like ATSV at the end pretty much perfectly describes how my dad felt walking out of the theatre
I don't know how much of a hot take this is, but I believe No Way Home is the best Spiderverse film, and it's also my favorite Spiderman film period. Don't get me wrong, I love both ITSV and ATSV, but NWH just does more for me personally.
Sean, I just want to say:
a) Your videos are great and I love your passion and how you communicate with your community. You're actually an inspiration to how I want to do my ranking videos on my channel going forward.
b) I want to keep things in perspective. I grew up with Raimi's Trilogy, and as a kid I Loved all 3 of them. Heck, Spider-Man 3 was my favourite of the Trilogy as a kid. For a long time, I was so attached to them that I was initially dismissive of the Marc Webb and Jon Watts Movies because they weren't my childhood. However, as I got older, I realised that I connect to the Webb and Watts Films more and to me they feel more like what Stan Lee (R.I.P.) wanted for Spider-Man. Hence why you see me ranking the Garfield and Holland films above the Raimi Films. Ntm, I also realised Raimi's style isn't for me.
c) I can respect other people's opinions as long as they respect mine and not act as if I "Objectively wrong" to have So many Movies ranked above SM2 and ITSV (I haven't seen ATSV Yet).
d) I can understand why SM1 may still be your favourite because of your personal reasons you had mentioned in your Top 20 Favourite Comic Book Movies Video.
I agree with Emma and Andrew being the best on screen couple and alot of that is because they were genuinely together but after beyond the spider verse I wouldnt be suprised if Gwen and Miles end up being the best couple
Totally agree. Miles said 1st time for everything, Miles and Gwen are endgame.
Nice rendition of Tobey's "Now dig on this" line! Love how you got up really close to the mic just to say it accurately. 😅
I was born in 05, and I grew up with the Andrew ,and I guess technically the Tom Holland films, and I did have a lengthy stage where I didn’t like the Tobey Maguire movies. However as I’ve gotten older , more into film and understood the character of Spider-Man more I can now say Raimi’s Spider-Man 2 is my favourite Spider-Man movie, and quite possibly even my favourite movie of all time.
Spiderman 2002 is a brilliant movie and easily one of the best in the superhero movies genre
Couldn't agree more
More of these Sean!
I like that you don’t bash people for having their own opinions. Your a real one for that 💯 you got a new subscriber
I loved your response to my hot take! Keep these videos coming, you should do a Batman one.
My hot-take is that Topher Grace is not awful in Spider-Man 3. The idea of him being small and dweeby reflects him as a negative Peter Parker. He isn't given enough time to really thrive as Venom because Sam Raimi hates the character and didn't give him the proper attention. But Grace's performance was ok and I'd love to see him return in a multiverse crossover movie with Tom Hardy.
Another great video from a amazing TH-camr
As much as i love Tobey and Tom. Andrew Garfield is the best actor to have played Spiderman(Acting Wise) When he has to be angry or sad. His performance sells it. The 2 examples i can think of are: Obviously Gwens Death and when he meets his father for the first time in TASM 2's deleted scene
I agree with this! It’s a shame that he was given the worst scripts for his duology (although his accent is straight up weird at times)
@@cyynical3299his accent is good. First one was well received and written because of the writers from Spider Man 2, Zodiac and Harry Potter. Not the 2nd one because it's written by Transformers writers
Great video Sean!
The tasm 2 is a masterpiece is also me who loves the movie
11:25 I think that was emo Peter Parker's reaction to hearing that hot take.
15:19 The thing that separates Across The Spider-Verse from something like Rise of Skywalker is that in Rise of Skywalker (or most other examples of bad fan service), the story serves the fan service is the priority rather than telling a good story it's using gimmicks to go "hEy yOU rEMebEr tHIs" meanwhile in Across the Spider-Verse the fan service serves the story and is always used to enhance it and there's plenty to love outside of the fan-service, so to sum it up the story should always come first and fan-service is no exception, if it helps the story, great and if it doesn't you shouldn't include it and that's why something like Rise of Skywalker doesn't work while Across the Spider-Verse does.
I’m so here for the TASM2 love. It was my favourite marvel movie for a long time. Probably the best thing for me is the soundtrack. Every spidey movie has had a top notch score. But boy did Hans Zimmer let it rip. The uplifting horns, the emotive strings, the synth production, the electro dubstep… I literally had the love themes for this movie playing in the background when I proposed to my wife!
Not to mention everything else great about the movie. My favourite Spider-Man outfit! The acting chemistry, the cinematography, the action, the setting- there is a lot to love about this movie.
GREAT VIDEO
Don’t forget the snow patrol song for Spider-Man 3, music video was a banger in 2007.
And isn’t available on Spotify for some baffling reason.
TASM2 is truly my favorite Spider-Man movie, and that's not a joke. I know it's too silly at times, but the acting, soundtrack, and amazing cinematography more than make up for that. It's one of the most gorgeous looking super-hero films ever made. Somehow this is a hot take, and I'll never understand why.
Same here!
I like it alot
It’s a guilty pleasure for me
You know why now it has good moments but it has some terrible ones too
For me I just think the plot, pacing and villains are just plain awful. I'll admit the acting and cinematography are great but besides that I just hate it
I was not expecting to see my comment in this video, great vid so Sean
I swear every time a movie has fan service in it it’s gonna have that one group of people hating on it and saying it’s only praised for said fan service😂 seriously if the movie’s so bad it shouldn’t be so difficult to criticize it before resorting to that malarkey, because Across the Spider-Verse is far from carried by fan service
I think the Amazing Spider-Man 2 has some of the highest highs of any Spider-Man movie, paired with some of the lowest lows. However, I do think the highs outweigh the lows greatly
I agree about it having the highest highs and the lowest lows. Unfortunately, I think the opposite of your last statement and feel like the lows outweigh the highs
@@tmm4195wrong! The good outweighs the bad.
The good:
- Chemistry
- Visuals
- Cinematography
- Fight scenes
- Casting
- Good moments (Spider Man saving a kid from bullies, etc)
- Soundtrack
- Andrew Garfield
- Electro (should have been the focus)
- Suit
- Web swinging scenes
The bad:
- Green Goblin and Rhino
- Plot (too much set up)
@@arinhossain2100 You have plot under bad, but the plot is the main thing about a movie. If the plot is bad, the movie is mostly bad. Not to mention this movie also has way too many plots going on. Visuals and web swinging don’t mean much when the plot is all over the place. Not even Andrew and Emma’s chemistry could save this movie
@@tmm4195 still, there are more good then bad about TASM 2. All it's miss for TASM 2 was a good plot. But everything else is good. It's not a bad movie. It's entertaining and fun but flawed
@@arinhossain2100 the film can be fun at times, but overall I do think it is a pretty bad movie
10:27 something about what you said here felt so badass lol
Featured!!! Thanks Sean!
My hot take is that I loved Across the Spiderverses ending! I honestly loved the whole third act (everything after the nueva york chase). The conclusion of gwens arc is beautiful, and the scene of miles swinging through earth 42 and hallucinating was so emotionally powerful and isnt being talked about enough. I felt that Miles was given payoff within the story as well, earlier on with the miguel confrontation and also when he tells his mum that hes spider man. That whole final scene was perfect to me, and I honestly felt like it wrapped everything up pretty well whilst also clearly leading into Beyond. Loved the film.
That's not a hot take. I agree because it's suspenseful
I honestly don't understand why people need resolution in a part 1 of movies, the definition of the term (part one of) means incomplete. The difference between Avengers and Spider verse is that Infiniti War and End Game is not a part 1 and two, it's two separate movies completing one story were across the spider-verse and beyond the spider-verse is one long story. Watch any TV show with a continuous plot, and if they have an episode with a part 1 and 2, part 1 will definitely cut off in the exciting part with no resolution, it's just more excepted because it's a tv show but it makes a lot of sense
Hey Sean! I would love to see a "Reacting to your hot movie takes" video, I reckon it would be awesome. Keep up the good work, love these types of videos.
My hottest take is probably into the spider verse is overrated. Idk what it is but I just never connected with that movie like other people have. That being said I LOVED across the spider verse and can’t wait for the payof that movie sets up. For a part 1 they nailed it and I just hope they can stick the landing.
That's not a hot take because you're right. Into the Spider Verse is overrated
Great video, really showcases why you’re so good at this and why I like your content
Really would like to see a Mark Webb universe where he tells his version of tasm2 and we get a proper trilogy with a proper setup to the sinister six
Here's a hot take that'll probably get me burnt: Spider-Man 2 is the worst of the Raimi Trilogy. Most of the characters in the movie aren't likeable at all. Mary Jane is very manipulative, Peter's decisions (such as buying a ticket to MJ's play he supposedly doesn't have money for it) are all stupid, Harry is very unsympathetic (and it makes no sense why he would sell the apartment in the first movie while supposedly knowing about Peter's struggles), and Doc-Ock is not only very reckless throughout the film, but also not smart with his plan to rebuild the machine, and it's very contrived he never gets caught throughout the city. The movie does have some good bits with Aunt May and JJJ is still as funny as ever though, but that's about it. (I would explain more, but you asked to keep it as brief as possible.)
Love your insight, Sean. Every response was very clearly well thought out 💪
I'm really going to enjoy this 😏
I just came from the theater from watching Across the Spiderverse, and as one that definitely sufferers from that out-of-theater hype of a movie, as of right now it's my favorite Spiderman movie. It will most likely lower in my ranking but the initial adrenaline after seeing a great movie and to talk about it with friends and family is one of the best feelings you can have in my opinion.
Loving these hot takes videos, and I think it brings the people of the movie community together that just want to talk civilly about movies.
Thanks for bringing us together Sean.
Oh the nickle back call back to “hero” 👏🏻👏🏻, across the spider verse is one of the best spider man movies I’ve ever seen but my heart till this very day goes with Toby’s spider man and Andrew’s series, and no way home, and yeah know the rest of the entire spider man movies.
9:38 i would rather watch spider-man 2 than the spider verse films.
Sean!!!!! Loving these keep this format please!!!! I always check out your videos and these are just so much fun!
20:40 I actually prefer into the spider verse not because of its simplicity but despite it
Ayyy im in the thumbnail thanks sean
Yeah I think Spider-verse is an amazing story and a great movie, but the animation style… idk what it is, but I just feel sick when I watch it. I’ve tried a few times and I just can’t get through it, which sucks cause like I said I think it’s great
Oh and can you do a ranking of all the number 1 films from the worst best
My hot take is that TASM 1 was only so disliked because at the time people were wanting/expecting another Tobey movie and therefore went into it not wanting to like it. As a movie it had to take more risks as it didn’t have a fan base who had no point of reference to a real Spider-man (Sam’s Spider-man) and who’s early fans would’ve watched it as it looked like a fun film at the time that brought together a lot of people who had recently suffered a tragedy OR a fan base that is easy to please as long as the characters drops cheesy one liners every second and fits in their place in the MCU rather than being just a good character (interesting how Toms best spiderman movie is the one relying on his predecessors.) I even think NWH has made some people realise that Andrew was and has the better spiderman (at least his first movie.)
TASM 1 was well received from critics and audiences via positive reviews
Spider-Man 2 is my favorite film (Raimi version) I love it and I guess I can see what your getting from the problems but Peter having so much having being a teenager, M.J relation ship, troubles with his best friend and being Spider-Man is honestly kinda my favorite part because you shouldn’t be surprised that he can take all this but you are. Oh yeah and Doc Oc = it’s a gift.
“I’m 15” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 10:40
As much as I know you'll roll your eyes reading the comments...I really REALLY want you to do one of these for Star Wars.
1: I didn’t like Across The Spider-Verse
2: While I do like it I don’t think Into The Spider-Verse is anywhere near as amazing as people make it out to be
3: I like Spider-Man 3
4: I like Topher Grace’s Venom
5: I think Mary Jane is overhated
6: I like Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin mask
7: I like emo Peter (And not in the ironic/meme worthy sense that so many other people do, I think he’s *legitimately* well done)
8: I hate Tom Holland’s homemade suit from Homecoming
9: While I agree that it’s a bad movie I don’t think Morbius is the utter trainwreck that everyone else seems to think it is, it’s not good but it’s not awful
10: I prefer Peter Parker as an adult rather than as a teenager
It was interesting hearing so much love for The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Because I will admit I’m someone who doesn’t like it. When I have to go rewatch it, it’s one of those “do I have to?” Kinda thing. I will say tho, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has the ABSOLUTE BEST live action suit in a Spider-Man movie!
8:05 money doesn't equal out to or in any way accurately represent the quality of a product, some people will simply feed into it and watch it with their brains shut off, so not a good thing to bring up.
Nice video!
Well we all got to get used to movies with multiple parts. There are three movies this summer that are going to have multiple parts.
The "emo Peter is the best Raimi scene" person is clearly Martin Scorsese with their wisdom and passion for film.
The other two people who said this are definitely Alfred Hitchcock and Steven Spielberg.
This series always reminds me of my 4 year old. He says "Let's pight" and puts up his dukes 😂😂
the mad comment had me rolling😂😂 but its kinda crazy that on letterboxd's top 250 list, across the spiderverse is literally the number 1😳
Here's a lot (man i gotta wait to finish the video next time) Spider-Man 3 is not as bad as people say it is, and Emo Peter Parker was part of the mid 2000s
No, not at all.
ATSV is very good, I might even say great. My score is currently sitting around an 8.5/10. Could go up to a 9. But I think people are ignoring any flaws in the film because of their recency bias. It has pretty basic issues that a “perfect” movie usually does not. It isn’t a complete movie. It isn’t. And more important than the abrupt ending, it’s the fact that absolutely no plot points or character arcs are truly resolved in the end. As a matter of fact, they spend the last 20-30 minutes setting up new ones, and giving us even more questions. I know it’s a part 1 of 2. But talking about the next movie to justify a perfect score for this one doesn’t work. And it doesn’t make this film be able to stand on its own two feet. Once we’re a few months removed from the third one, I think I’ll be able to watch the first by itself, and the third by itself. But the second one has no third act/final battle. And he’s doesn’t even deal with his other self as a final battle, which should be pretty easy. Dealing with that situation and then joining Gwen and the others looking at the city into what’s next was the way to go. Cut out a bit of filler, then add that to the end. I just think the “maybe the greatest comic book films of all time” or “one of…” is forced by spectacle, recency bias, and now some people that I e talked to that deny the points I’ve made there because they are delusional.
That’s exactly how I feel I felt so disappointed at the end thinking how I was sat there for 3 hours just for it to abruptly end with no answers and yet people are calling it the best comic book movie of all time. I’m just gonna wait for the next one to come out then rewatch it as a whole and see how I feel about it then.
@@CloutMasterCamsame but it's a 9/10
Hey Sean, I have idea for a list you can do
Top 10 Most Underrated Remakes
In regards to the “.. not a complete story” argument, if this whole trilogy was broken down into a series with 3 seasons and the ending of this movie was the finale of season 2, why do I feel like nobody would bat an eye? But since it’s a movie, many people seem to be heavily criticizing it? Just a thought 🤷🏻♂️
In a sense that's kind of how it goes down when it comes to the "to be continued!" criticisms. As far as I'm concerned, cliffhangers are going to cliffhanger.
@@ikedatike2533 yea, maybe it’s just me but I didn’t mind in the slightest.. knew what it was going into it and it definitely did it’s job in getting me extremely excited for Beyond the Spider-Verse
@@kvk3315 yeah same here man. My only real criticism I have with this movie is too much too fast as in too much information to process in a fixed amount of time
The pacing was great despite my criticism
No one would bat an eye because you’re watching TV for free, you’re not trekking out to a theater, paying for an overpriced ticket and receiving an incomplete story that you weren’t warned even had a cliffhanger (unless you’re really paying hard attention to any Spider-Man movie news whatsoever, but I doubt most general audiences were).
@@DamienBarriga I feel like most fans of the first movie or anyone who has any type of TH-cam or social media presence knew it was a Part 1. And I pay like 15$ a month for an HBO subscription and I’d bet every season finale of every series on there ends on a cliffhanger.. and idk about you but 15$ a month as opposed to 15$ one time admission fee is a steeper price if your only argument is having paid for it
this was very entertaining
2. Across the spider verse is my runner up (only behind 2002 which is my favorite movie of all time). I do think across the spider verse is a much better movie but I much prefer spider man 2002 if that makes sense
2. Into the spider verse is my least favorite spider man movie by far and the only one that I feel is a chore to get through
18:43 I wouldn´t say the mixture of animation styles was ugly, but for me, sometimes I couldn´t get what was going on. It felt like a Michael Bay Transformers movie
It’s a great movie but I’m shocked that it’s no. 1 on LB which does not make any sense, it definitely deserves at least a top 15-30 but no. 1 are you kidding me? Higher than godfather, 2001. Dark knight, etc.??. They should stop overhyping every single new movie that is great. E. G. John wick 4, guardians 3, etc. ppl make it seem like they are the best movies of all time when they are just good movies
I mean Spider Man Across the Spider-Verse is one of the best movies of all time but I wouldn't say it's number 1. The Dark Knight, The Batman, and Logan are better then Across the Spider-Verse
For a movie to be the greatest film of all time it will have to beat out over 100 years of classic films. That's not likely to happen in today's age but for me, I honestly think that Avengers: Endgame is the greatest movie of all time. I have watched thousands upon thousands of movies from each decade but nothing gave me the feeling that both Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame did. In my opinion, the two greatest movies I've ever watched.
Me watching the first 30 min to an hr of avengers endgame: 😴
Infinity war was bad imo. Endgame was good but boring till the ending. Not really anything note worthy in the writing department, or the acting and cinematography. Just another big cgi blockbuster
I recently watched the Raimi films for the first time and I really enjoyed them
These takes are just something else
I think into the spider verse is a really solid b+ movie, although people saying it's the best Spiderman movie are missing a major point, is that the action sequences of the movie are a major drawback, is pretty mediocre and offers nothing new
In the name of merging different art styles, the action feels disorienting, and sometimes you can't really tell who's punching who
Also I think the cut out animated style of spider punk comes across as really weird, and also he looks somehow different than the rest of the characters, even weirder. Live action and Lego characters don't feel as jarring somehow.
Also I think the movie ends on such a high that it makes us forget about the shortcomings which occurred in earlier parts
I love how people are actually raging abt his opinions. Actually makes me laugh
I don’t believe in an opinion being a hot take , you believe what you believe
If I didn’t miss the initial community post, this would’ve been my argument: I think Topher Grace was the right actor to play Venom. Sure he wasn’t as shredded as he’s usually portrayed, but neither was Tom Hardy. I can see how Raimi tried to use Venom by trying to make Eddy the dark version of nerdy Peter, and then make Peter the bully he defeated. And for the parts with Eddy, Topher Grace does a good job at portraying the wimpy nerd that Peter was. So I think that Venom was a little over hatted, sure he would’ve worked better for a potential Spider-Man 4, and his persuasion of Sandman doesn’t make a whole lot of sense either, but for the parts that it’s a nerd becoming a bully, it works well for me.
The design was bad too, and I think some of the cheesiness ruined him. I’d honesty defend Ryan as green lantern, there are so many instances where the actor could do it wel if the material was better
@@user-jt1js5mr3fRyan Reynolds was good in the role but the movie was Green Lantern was done dirty.
@@arinhossain2100 oh definitely
I love movies but just can't get into the spider verse movies
I loved the 90s spiderman show and i do like some anime
Suppose it is a hot take i do think they are overrated, some people saying best movie ever and i just don't buy it
6:35 that morbius take has to be satire
Sean Chandler whispering "Now dig on this" like Emo Peter it's just fucking hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Spiderman 3 is one of the best comedies of all time. Everything with emo Peter is great. Especially the piano bar scene
Seems like a lot of people in your comment section aren't fans of the Spider-Man movies.
I Personally Think TASM 2 Is One Of The Best Spider-Man Movies.
I think both of The TASM Movies are WAY Better then Spider-Man 3 even though it has great memes. Also The Spider-Verse Movies are not Overrated. Anyone who says that needs to rewatch them Because They're Masterpieces.
- I love the TASM movies too. They are my favorite Spider Man movies apart from No Way Home. I would only say the first TASM was better than Spider Man 3 and possibly TASM 2.
@@arinhossain2100 Me too!
Greatest youtuber
Bro am still figuring out , how into the spiderverse is known to be the best spidey movie. A lot of ppl liked it. Am rewatching it on netflix every now n then to test if I like it 😂. I generally like animated flicks just like live action.
Hey I gotta question Sean. Do you think that they should Tobey and Andrew back for just group movies, or continue standalone movies with them or just leave the characters alone
I don't even know why. I know it's convoluted and messy, but TASM 2 is my favorite spider-man movie.
It's still at least entertaining and fun
I wonder if Across the Spiderverse will be the Two Towers of Spiderverse movies
I’m 25 now and I’ll say this, I grew up with Sam rami spider man and the animated series spider man. That trilogy holds a very special place in my heart where I put spider man 1 and spider man 2 in my top 3. Across the spider verse yeah I believe that was a amazing movie probably the best (SPIDERMAN) comic based movie of the series. But I still go with the original series.
Look I love movies and it’s very hard for me to look at any movie and say it’s awful. Comic book movies are my very favorite and spider-man is my favorite hero. I really enjoy TASM1 but TASM2 is one of the 2 worst theater experiences I’ve ever seen when it comes to the movie itself. There was way too much going on in the movie. I do think the idea of Gwen dying was great but terrible timing. If they built it up through TASM3 and at the end she dies then I would have been on board but they didn’t. I’m so glad they scrapped it and I do feel bad for Andrew and glad he got his redemption in NWH.
EDIT: In regards to the Rami trilogy, I love the Rami trilogy…but I have never cringed more hard at a scene in any move ever than I have when Tobey dances in Spider-Man 3. I skip it every time but i still enjoy most parts of it.
Hot take: Homecoming the best spidy film. People give it way to much garbage because iron man is in the film and he’s not really in it that much. He acts as a father figure to Peter and their relationship is unique and special. Also it tells a traditional Spider-Man story in the mcu, the vulture is essentially just a better version of doc oc, and the twist of peters prom dates dad being the villain is a classic twist the way Osborn was. Sure he had a suit with powers but he was still learning how to be Spider-Man and how great power comes with great responsibility as he quickly learns from almost getting his friends killed in dc
Raimi's Spider-Man 2 will probably always be my favorite Spidey movie. I can admit nostalgia plays a factor for sure, but that movie was seriously lightning in a bottle. Perfect casting for every character, super tight and personal story, best score of probably any Marvel movie honestly, and still has the most memorable fight scene of any Spidey movie imo. I mean Raimi's casting for Jameson was so perfect that Marvel STILL uses JK Simmons for that role lmao.
This shouldn’t have to be a hot take but…..The first two acts of Across the Spiderverse is dull, predictable, and repetitive. It is entirely saved by its third act.
In all honesty, I agree with some of the Spider-Verse criticisms…
I think both of these films are visually amazing, but I also think they are being massively overrated!
Especially this new one, who people are calling it a masterpiece, best animated film ever, best superhero film ever, best Spider-Man film ever, best film ever, blah blah…
As you said yourself, it’s recency bias!
However I do disagree with most people’s criticism of this film because of its cliffhanger ending.
That’s what cliffhangers are meant to do!
They’re meant to leave you on the edge and tease what’s to come…
It’s almost like audiences are so use to their MCU films being all wrapped up by the end and for every character to live happily ever after, that they can’t cope with a cliffhanger ending because it doesn’t give them the satisfaction…
I think TASM 2 is my 2 favourite Spider man movie
0:45 it is
