But in any other universe what does Stacy dying have to do with Spider-Man suffering or his sacrifice? If the police captain dying is just some technicality that has to happen in every spider-verse, for some arbitrary reason, sure, I guess I get that. And it obviously makes sense in Gwen's case. But they made it sound like something more; that for most Spider-Men, experiencing some kind of personal loss/death of someone close to them is what truly matters. If so, if Miles already suffered that traumatic loss in the form of his uncle, why does he have to suffer again?

I understand what you're saying, but Capt. Stacy's death did not replace the impact of Uncle Ben. It occurred well after Peter had assumed the role of Spider-Man. It wasn't a driving force in him becoming the hero, it was a personal loss that occurred once he had assumed the role.

I honestly don't remember if it happened in the comics because his identity was known by Green Goblin, but in this movie, it was a direct targeting by the Spot to hurt him.

That's a huge difference now that Miles has been active as a hero. And a standard threat that has been addressed in previous Spidey and other hero stories.

ETA: In the comics, Peter had been dating Gwen and gotten to know her father, who actually liked what Spider-Man was doing. It's really one of the many great Spidey stories from the 70's

This happened to us as well. Saw it one of the best theaters in the world (Chinese Theater IMAX) and we could hardly hear a world she said during that sequence. Made even weirder by the fact that the rest of the movie was perfectly fine, sound-wise.

And TCTTS' Twitter bombing of movie threads is always replete with hyperbole, even when the movie stinks, so he should expect it to be even more over the top when the movie is great.

I'm still mentally unpacking this movie two days later. It's supposed to be a kids/family movie, but man there's some deep layers to this thing. The way they approached Gwen and the pathos they gave her character is incredible.

Also, the number of great characters this series has put on the screen is impressive. Spider Noir, Spider Ham, Spider Punk, Spider-Man India, and Miquel O'Hara are all fantastic in these movies. Peter B. Parker and Miles and Gwen could each headline their own trilogies without anyone else.

My deepest apologies that you have to move your finger for a few extra seconds to scroll past some extra posts, on a single night, just one time in, like, every other blockbuster movie thread. I can only imagine how harrowing that must be, and how tired your finger must get.

Seriously, though, "meaningless" is subjective, people here ask me all the time when reactions are dropping, and not everyone wants to go sifting through Twitter to find them. Also, I don't find that they "distract" from discussion at all, seeing as they're often one of the main drivers of discussion, in the week or two leading up to a release.

Thought you could take some constructive criticism to make this forum better, my bad.

It's not constructive criticism. It's you a handful of others finding reason to b*tch about anything and everything I do, no matter how innocuous.

Don't you have better things to do than post other people's ridiculous tweets? Nope is better than Hitchcock…ad nauseum for 40 tweets…bleh.

It takes maybe twenty minutes tops, if that, once every month or so, if that. Again, it's legit hilarious that it annoys you to this degree.

Whatever…you do you and I'll just ignore it.

Thank god!
