New and different, super extraordinary

Watched the IMAX 3D version of "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse". What a surprise! Far more than the impression the trailer gave me. Basically lock in the best animation of the year!

The first is the picture effect. The combination of 2D and 3D has a strong sense of three-dimensionality and rich and diverse viewing angles. The whole film is very gorgeous and mysterious, especially the last few scenes are simply dazzling! The scene is not inferior to the current live-action commercial blockbusters, and the lens has reached a level of gorgeousness that a live-action movie can't imagine. Its style of painting is completely different from the current popular cartoon CG modeling 3D simulation, which is really refreshing. This cartoon is really worth going to the theater to watch the IMAX version!

This film can be called the most comic-style movie/animation: the use of speech bubbles, framed images and onomatopoeia are all in place, especially Spider-Man’s spider induction, which has become an interesting detail in the film. Occurrences.

This film is probably one of the few stills that are not as good-looking as the movie!

From the perspective of superhero movies, the film is also very interesting: the story of Spider-Man has actually been told on the big screen for three rounds, from Sam Remy’s "Spider-Man" to "The Amazing Spider-Man" to "Spider-Man: Homecoming". But this film can still tell the story of the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty (there is also self-voicing in the middle). In addition, the film is patient in shaping the characters and laying out the story, and spent a lot of space to shape the black spider. There is basically no anticlimactic problem-"Venom" has a bigger problem in this respect. Sony Animation really opened a new road for Marvel this time, and let a Spider-Man movie with teenagers as the protagonist have topics that adults are also interested in. Compared with the previous Extraordinary series and restarts, I think those live-action versions. The expression is too simple and mediocre.

"Spider-Man: Parallel Universe" can be regarded as a new milestone in cartoons visually, and the story and characters are also quite successful. The main reason is that the ending story is still slightly weaker, and the villain is still very thin. The original story gave the villain a reason to go his own way, but the ending trip was very hasty, losing the opportunity to deepen the character and the theme. At the same time, the transformation of Black Spider's father is also abrupt and lacks a reasonable process.

Summarize my opinion: the best cartoon of the year! In recent years, the breakthrough work of cartoons is the first to start! One of the best superhero movies in recent years, the plot and role are still slightly inferior to "American Team 2", "Spider-Man 2" and "Wolverine 3", but it definitely belongs to the level of the first camp.

In the end, the cost of the film is 90 million US dollars, which is only in the middle of the cartoon, and it is by no means a super large production! The most recent "Invincible Destruction King 2" cost 175 million US dollars, which is twice that of the film; "Green Haired Grinch" also cost 75 million US dollars. The three directors of this cartoon are all produced by animation. Two of them are directors for the first time. The other one, Peter Ramsey, who has filmed "League of the Guardians", has only directed such a cartoon. The word-of-mouth of this film has exploded, and it really reflects the overall level of Hollywood cartoons- people are industries that promote creativity, and here we are still creativity pulling industry to move forward!

    The storyboard is really cool, especially the moment the actor jumps down from the tall building. He really regains the excitement of watching Sam Remy’s "Spider-Man" trilogy. In terms of the drama, I think that instead of producing so many Spider-Man but not spending time on character creation, it is better to spend more time on how the middle-aged Spider-Man and the male protagonist help each other regain their confidence. In the end, I didn't feel much touched by the Spider-Man who returned to their own world, because they described too little of their emotional connection. If I decide on this subject, I would suggest focusing on how to establish, develop, diverge, and sublimate the emotional relationship between the middle-aged Spider-Man, Little Spider-Man and Female Spider-Man. At most, add another Spider Pig to make a funny adjustment. Four Spider-Man is enough, six too many, really unnecessary. The final battle still lacks imagination for the visual performance of the collapse of the multiverse into one. It stands to reason that it should be played a little cooler as an animation. In the end, it is just a variety of buildings and vehicles flying around. To a certain extent, it is not even as good as the real " "Doctor Strange" is visually stunning.

    The plot is very off-line. The seven parallel universe Spider-Man, including the brave and justice black version, the white version when you fail and finish, and the obscure black version, the animal version, the white girl and the yellow girl version. Basically The above covers the current political spectrum of ethnic identity. The action scenes are American-style hardcore and gorgeous, and the number of frames is deliberately lowered to emphasize the sense of dynamics. There are quirks that cannot be played in the live-action version.
