Across the Spiderverse is so unbelievabely UGLY!!!

@LukeAlmighty Yeah, whatever you think about him, Zero wrote a decent long rambling piece that’s also a review of that terrible mobie.

Spider-Man: Across etc. hits all the beats of the queer monomyth, and in fact the dramatic sequence of bigoted rejection, temper tantrum, acceptance plays out several times across several characters. In the climax of the story, Miles Morales defeats his nemesis effortlessly. The only point of friction in the colossally boring fight scene is the cliché where he realizes that he was good enough all along, and he doesn’t have to grow or change in any way. I think that’s a self evidently vile message to teach to anyone, child or adult, but it’s all too typical of queer narcissism. In this movie, being Spider-Man (having super powers) is an allegory for being gay or trans. The children in the movie struggle with the emotional labor of “coming out” to their parents as Spider-Man. This doesn’t make any sense, because unlike being queer, being Spider-Man is not a source of moral opprobrium, but it only serves to highlight the allegorical nature of the conundrum.

Wait... The bad guy's motivation is literally: Fuck you man!!!

That's so incredibly lame.

@grey I meant the dalmatine guy

Also, this joke is getting quite old

@grey
I don't, because I don't believe it's broken on principle...

But noone had done it right yet.
