Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse – A Cinematic Triumph in Animated Filmmaking

Spider-Verse

I greatly enjoyed spider-man: beyond the spider-verse for me it is one of the best animated films of all the years. In fact, I regard it as one of the most outstanding productions of the so-called new filmmaking in the twenty-first century. 

As much as I am not partial towards sequels I was really hoping for spider-man: beyond the spider-verse after watching the trailer and the extra trailer shown before it. But as usual I didn’t get down to watching it when it was released though.

Let me say straight away that I find it a bit disappointing that, like Kill Bill and Dune, Spider-Man: Over Cronos they divided Spider-Verse into two films. Not for this movie It doesn’t even have an ending, it rather just stop in the middle of a scene.

Other than that it is an absolutely marvelous film. The filmmakers have taken the approach that made Spider-Man: In the vein of Into the Spider-Verse it takes it all and brings it to another level of visually stimulation. The new things I liked here are the different styles of animations. 

Best character, one of my favorite is Spider-Punk, whose look is based on the punk records, posters and magazines of the 1970s. I also liked more Earth-50101 that is a mixture of Manhattan and Mumbai as well as the Indian Spider-Man. It is also, ehh, a rather venerable spot character and it does open up some rather interesting opportunities to get tricky with light and shadow.

Of course, ac may be an issue not because there is such a significant difference in the prominence of the title character, but because the variants of Miles Morales/Spider-Man and Gwen Stacy Spider-Woman have relatively equal amounts. 

In fact, one could argue that the movie’s first 15 or so minutes are all about Gwen Stacy/Spider-Woman.

As in Spider-Man: To the point about Into the Spider-Verse I liked the references. The animators themselves should have had great fun browsing through art books and history of animation and comic books. Also the opening titles are dope as fuck. I’m positive the filmmakers are aware of enter the Void’s famous opening credits scene and what ways they can transverse it.

spider-man: beyond the spider-verse is an artistic work of such density and epicentredness on visuals that any fan needs to watch the film at least twice.

I’m curious to know what other visual surprises the moviemakers kept in their filmmaking arsenal.
