I’m sure most of you have seen it by now, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse released last week and my god, what an incredibly special piece of storytelling. Obviously the hype and anticipation was HIGH for this one, and I am obviously not alone in saying that it lived up to and exceeded that hype. ESPECIALLY in its overperformance at the box office, $208 MILLION worldwide in its opening weekend, absolutely bonkers, nearly 4 times as much as the first made in its opening weekend. But I am not exaggerating when I tell you that this thing is special on MULTIPLE levels. The animation, the story, the characters, returning and new, are all just handled with such incredible expertise. In some ways, even more adeptly than the first film, Into the Spider-Verse, which itself is an absolute masterpiece. If you haven’t caught it yet make sure to check out my latest retrospective on that film as well. There is SO much to dig into, so let’s just get to it and begin our trip Across the Spider-Verse.
