"You're a Mistake!" | Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023) | Now Playing

“You don’t belong here, you never did” Gotta feel for miles in that moment, he’s spent this whole movie searching for acceptance from these people who he aspires to be like, only to be rejected by them in the most harsh way possible.

As serious and intense as this scene is, the “SNITCH!” gets me every time.

4:47 - the music, the realisation that Miles isn't just running scared, that everyone's been underestimating him - Miguel trying to pull away but Miles keeping him there, the amount of self-confidence and determination then the quiet "Nah... Imma do my own thing..." I will tear up with pride for this character every single time.

The best part about Miguel's whole spiel is that he's basically projecting. Everything he accuses Miles of being, he secretly thinks about himself.

the passion behind the "your a mistake" then that chokeslam afterwards is just brutal

I love how Miles has only been Spider-Man for like a year and is still able to escape and outsmart all the other Spider people 😅😅

3:46 we really not gonna talk about him calling and reaching for peter like he's asking for help. Even with all thats going on he still looks up to him and relies on him and it hurts that peter couldn't help him here

Miguel really has lost his way. He’s not even technically wrong with his viewpoint. Miguel suffered his own losses and feels immense guilt over what he did and he is trying in his own way to right the wrongs he committed. Yeah you can’t save everyone, not even Spider-Man can save everyone. But you know what makes Spider-Man great? He tries anyways. If he fails he doesn’t give up trying to save everyone and more often than not Spider-Man always finds a way and pulls a miracle.

Miguel's role in the movie was so well-done. His near-bursting rage throughout the movie kept me at the edge of my seat, and there were a lot of times where I actually feared for Miles because I genuinely thought Miguel was gonna lose it and shred him apart.

"we are supposed to be the good guys" damn that line destroyed every single spider person in the room, specially Miguel, him repeating "we are!!" really drives home that even he isn't sure he's doing the right thing anymore.

2:52 This was the best scene in the whole movie. You can practically taste Miguel’s rage. Oscar Isaac was born for this role.

"You're just a kid who has no idea what he's doing!" To be fair, Miguel, a lot of the Spider-People were like that at one point in their lives

4:31 Miguel’s line “You’re just a kid that has no idea what he’s doing” is interesting — that’s fair to describe most versions of Spider-Man when they first got their powers: most were kids that had no idea what they were doing until their “canon events” (ex. Uncle Ben) happened

8:00 I love how Peter just looks at Gwen like "I didn't know this fucker was this insane". He ain't holding my kid again 😂

I'm not defending the writing for this scene, but I think the reason Miles is able to get away from the other spider-people is because he's desperate, while the others are just casually following orders. The only one that wants to really stop him is 2099, and even he's under the impression Miles isn't very adept in Spider-maning because hes a relatively new. spider-dude.

People always say "you can't have your cake and eat it too" but it's so refreshing to hear someone ask why not. Too many give up for what is easy and not what is true to themselves

I think people are misunderstanding Miles. He's not saying saving the Spiderverse isn't important, he's just not gonna sacrifice an innocent person, especially if that person is his father, to do so. Like Peter in Edge of Time said "What's important is not standing by and letting innocent people suffer or die, because you do nothing" For clarification for those still confused, that quote means that Spider-Man shouldn't just let someone die. If Miles tries to save his dad and fails, the canon event plays out and everything is fine. But Miguel is saying he should just let his dad die and not do anything about it, which is not what being Spider-Man is about

3:46 Miles in fear and panicking actually looks down to where Peter is and calls out for his help as Miguel berates him. A small detail I missed a couple of times rewatching this amazing movie.

4:52 I love the proud reaction Peter had here and Miles' smile after baiting Miguel and everyone else

3:07 If you look closely when Miles glitches, you can see him glitch into himself wearing the Spider-Man costume he bought from Stan Lee in the first movie
