Did people see this?
I really enjoyed the first Spiderverse film and went into this thinking it will be good but man ... the movie really craps on Peter Parker. We have black spidermen and black spiderwomen and fat women spiderwomen and fat black women spiderwomen and shaved head spiderwomen ...
Anyone but Peter Parker except a small showing by the one from the last film at the end. And the entire movie is about how Miles is an "anomaly" and it should have been Pete in his universe as well. Just shoving down our throat how Peter Parker shouldn't be Spiderman.
Not to mention all the #BLM, trans lives matter, crapping on capitalism, etc in the background ... like it's all so tiring. I hate it.
Az (HeelsVsBabyface) had a good comment in the FridayNightTights going on right now:
"They're afraid. If they start showing Peter being the great Spiderman everyone knows he's supposed to be, people are going to want to see him more than all the others (Miles, Gwen, pregnant bitch), and they know it. That scares them."
I pretty much assumed this would happen. Plus considering the state of comics no surprise. Reminds me of what Eric July said when he said modern day comic books are written for 14 year old girls on tumblr who don’t read comics
As they say "Peter Parker is Spider-Man. Miles Morales is Miles Morales." They can't exclude Peter so they have to make him so handicapped that of course the other characters aren't overshadowed by him by default.
