Apparently the ‘Spider-Verse 2’ Animation Will Be Better Than the First Movie
By George Robbins
Sony’s ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse‘ was, from the moment it released into theaters, a film where there was a unanimous love for it. The story of the film pulls some inspiration from the comics that it was based off, but it also tells a story that is wholly unique. There are not many movies nowadays that can say that they have managed to captivate audiences with a new and original plot. Beyond just the story of the film though there is the look of the film itself and it looks extraordinary due to the amount of time and effort put into the film. There was a lot of time put into making this animated movie, and now we have a film where every single shot looks like a moment from a comic book.
Despite the fact that there are multiple Spider-Men existing in the same place at the same time, it really isn’t overwhelming because of how it was done. Every character in the film is given sufficient backstory which helps those who don’t know the characters in understanding what worlds they are from. They also do an excellent job of demonstrating throughout the film that no matter what universe they are from, they will almost always be the same. Even though it is a story which features so many different characters, we know immediately who the protagonist is and we know that it is really his origin story as a hero. All of this combined is what made the movie so incredible to watch and still keeps the movie interesting even if you want to watch it again.
Not too long ago we found out that Sony had started up production for ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2’ and that we will see the film release possibly within 2 years from now or maybe a little over 2 years. The first movie was absolutely incredible in terms of the animation and the comic book feel gives the movie its own identity. Not only is the style unique to the story, but the fact that each universe has its own unique style within the movie just shows the effort that they went through to make the movie its own thing. The producer for the upcoming sequel, Christopher Miller, has said that the next film will have animation more incredible than the first film’s.
Given how well they did with the first film, it is incredibly difficult for them to be able to create a film where the visuals are even better than they were the first time around. What it really means for the film’s visuals to be better is pretty much unknown at this point and it won’t be until we see a trailer for the movie that we’ll understand the meaning behind that statement. That is the moment we will be able to judge whether or not what he said was true. In the meantime, we have a lot to look forward to when the movie comes out and hopefully it ends up being as great as advertised and we get something as great or greater than the first film.
