Eh, I dont agree. Killmonger final scene is excellent for example. It's by far my favorite MCU film though maybe I'm biased.

I mean, the entire trench sequence is better shot than the entirety of iron man 3. The final battle between ocean master and aquaman. Aquaman getting his armour, the Italy sequence.
I understand if somebody doesn't like the film, I thought it was okay but saying the visuals weren't on point is just bizarre.
Avatar actually isn't one of my favorite movies, you know
Neither is Spider-verse really, but I think I would say Spider-verse in this case based on its strong and unique visual/aesthetic ambition. I honestly didn't really connect that much with its story and characters, but I appreciate the heck out of what it was trying to do. There's some real craft and artistry in that film. I certainly don't feel this way about any MCU movie, except for maybe Black Panther, which sadly wasn't given enough time to cook.
Spider verse would be knocking on a billion if it was live action.
People have a weird hang up about "adult" animation.
Why would we talk about a movie that doesn't have superheroes or lightsabers
haven't seen it yet :/
God damn, do you guys even know what you're arguing about anymore? That last page was pure torture, this shit isn't that important.
Show me an MCU battle that looks prettier than this
My god my, the eye candy 😍
I saw it in Dolby. I wish I had a Dolby theater at home.

I assume you didn't see Endgame? That last 30 minutes, goddamn
I did, 3 times 🤣 (and people have used that against me lol)
Endgame is a prettier Civil War/Winter Soldier imo.
But then, would it be SpiderVerse?
Without the visuals I doubt it'd be remotely as memorable.
Spider-Verse is an exemple how different between this nerd forum and general audience's taste.
This place of course loved it and GA had none of it. It did bad overseas for animated and for spiderman film. Most of my friends did not want to see it or care about it after, the comic-y style just for not everyone.

No idea but it wouldn't surprise me if the Marvel live action stuff on Disney+ is pretty high budget.
This is a correct take. The movie didn't take off at the BO because the GA rejected it. It has nothing to do with it being animated. We have had a shitload of animated movies grossing over 1B.
I hated second part with visuals like on drugs and kingpin battle that took sequence on purple background with terrible visuals. First half is great until that part
What's with you guys and this expectation that a movie has to pull a billion to do really well.
Spider-verse is not even close to being considered a flop by any other metric.

True but it's the art style. Spider-Verse is something you "could see on TV" vs a Disney/Pixar movie is a "movie movie" not sure if that makes sense but there are a lot of people with that mentality. I get it but it robs them of experiences. I loved Spider-Verse. Saw it in Dolby as well.
I think part of it has to do with the animation. When there exists a live action Spider-Man, animated Spider-Man feels like the lesser movie. The same exact movie in live action as a part of the MCU would have cleared a billion no problem.
it's sad but that's how it is. Lego Batman did poorly for the same reason, I think.
The build up is so good with Prowler revealed but I dont like the final battle where everyone going at it. I feel like my eyes being assaulted with too much chaotic actions, flashing images and that flickering comic style.
I feel the same way about Lego movies. Kind of funny because they are all produced by the same person.
It may be fun (I haven't seen it) and maybe watching it on my phone isn't doing it justice but that does not look pretty or great to me.
Spider-Verse made like 400 million lmao
It did well, y'all just like to attach arbitrary guidelines for whether a movie is successful or not

For the last 10 years Disney/MCU marks have been arguing that a pointless movie was the box office king
So yeah going by them, yes, a point less movie can make $1.6b at the box office
Live action Spider-Verse would lose all of its identity. Whether GA love it or not, Spider-Verse is very unique film.
$375m, infact it did great domestically with $190m but bad with all other markets.
guys lion king is about to make $1.6 billion and looks like a nature documentary
a bad nature documentary
with no color
inferior to the original animated version in literally every way
live action is money, ain't nobody give a shit about "identity". the box office speaks for itself.

Ok, but the "General Audience" also didn't reject it because if they did the movie would actually flop. Spider-verse is the least grossing Spider-Man movie because the other films are blockbuster tentpoles with a way bigger marketing push and international push while Spider-verse is at its core a modestly budget animated family film meant to play better domestically. From the studio's perspective Spider-verse's marketing and expectations isn't that different from Sony's other animated films. It's an apples and orange comparison.
Also can we lay off the "general audience is turned off by animation" even though that's complete and total bullshit.

It's one of the best looking movies I've ever seen. Absolutely shines on an OLED.
Isn't Spider-Verse one of Sony Animation's highest-grossing movies? And it's getting a sequel. Nothing to complain about with regards to Spider-Verse's box office results.
A sequel and a Spider-Gwen spinoff. Spiderverse did well for its budget.
