OKAY here they are... my thoughts on atsv. more thoughts i mean. in numerical order for. no reason in particular. as usual spoilers for the movie!!! ok here we go under the cut because this got REALLY long LMAOOOOO

1. miles never realizing why gwen was on earth 1610 and it never really being addressed. or rather - he let it slip past him until it really mattered. not blaming her (mostly) just. something i noticed, especially since they never discussed why she was there and also never really discussed the implication of her being there to monitor spot. idk my thoughts on That are not particularly articulate but There Is Something There. For Me.

2. ok once again about inspector singh. except this time about the implications of gwen being alerted about an 'incoming canon event.' like first of all that gwen had to Be Okay (or perhaps resigned?) with knowing that pavitr would suffer because of that and still holding back. not her fault because i can absolutely see how jess and miguel would take advantage of her in a vulnerable moment (like when her own dad pointed a gun at her and was willing to actually arrest her) and guilt her into thinking it’s Okay. especially because it’s for a friend. and on that thought. what about pavitr?? did he know??? did they tell him?? because if he was part of it… shouldn’t he know??? like if that's their Whole Thing. maintaining canon, patching up alleged holes in the universe... you know what i mean?

3. when miguel is trying to make his case for miles to let his dad die and he points to what happened in pavitr’s dimension. quantum collapse i think they called it? it brings me back to the thing of like. correlation ≠ causation???? Because presumably the only universe/dimension to collapse was miguel’s when he. you know. Replaced A Dead Man. and then it didn’t happen again. or that's what i assume. and i know the next question there is, well, then how could he get everyone onboard with this canon stuff? i think the collapse of miguel's universe in tandem with them realizing that their lives (the spiders' lives i mean) inextricably intertwine and repeat, so to speak, helped make the case of 'canon' being so important.

but my whole point about That is... how do they really know that pavitr’s dimension is going to unravel because of what miles did by saving inspector singh and not just because of what spot did? becuase they said he was dimension-hopping to places with alchemax/particle colliders but we never really see what happens to the other particle colliders that spot uses but presumably (it would benefit my theory so i’m biased) he just used them as go-points to gain spots and to keep moving? and then here, he levels up so to speak, right? which is why it exploded? and THAT’S why the dimension is unraveling? ALL IM SAYING IS. they don’t actually know. i think.

4. not a lot going on here but i continue to be astonished at how all of it comes back to these adults seemingly failing these kids. jess (and miguel i guess) were looking out for gwen and were in fact reluctant to take her on but at the first sign of a mistake, they're turning on her! or rather, unable to stop themselves from throwing her mistake into her face. you know??? and dgmw she made a mistake but i also think they maybe could've. uh. counseled her on everything going on with her dad instead of. doing all that. because it was ultimately going to culminate in her going to see miles. but of course we need it for the sake of the story but i still think their treatment of her is just so harsh and i know!!! she made mistakes!!!! i was definitely annoyed with her!!! but like. you know??

and then miles too. like. i talked about it before but it's just so bleak. how miguel has genuinely convinced all these people that the tragedies that seemingly mark a spiders' life are unavoidable and that even with foreknowledge of it, should still happen. and that miles has to stand to the side and just. let it happen. moreover the way miguel like genuinely blames miles for what happened and how he became the anomaly and thus, the reason his dad is going to die, like it really really really feels like there was a whole lot of resentment on miguel's side, probably combining that with the fact that miles does not want to listen to him and will not listen to him. but then peter b too! miles expects him to back him up, expects gwen to back him up, but they don't and he's left all alone. not to mention his repeated insistences against them belittling him as a kid - which he is but it's obviously used against him. like oh he's just a kid. he doesn't know better. of course he's wrong for pointing out the obvious flaws in miguel's thought process - literal algorithm - on 'canon' and the spider-verse, he's just a kid. and no he isn't entirely justified in wanting to save his dad, like it's some childish ideal, right, because the canon is what matters the most. when in all actuality!!!!! that's his dad.

(i said not a lot going on here and i lied. sorry LMAO)

5. also during the train scene when miles first glitches after his day pass comes off (the first or second time? one of the times), he glitches to his 14 y/o self when he was wearing the spider costume he got from the store ☹️

6. ALSO. their strength. it's always interesting in comics, particularly the spiders, i think, that their strength fluctuates, so one day they might be able to hold up an entire building and the next, they're getting beat up by like. Some Guy. and yeah you can say it's adrenaline but i also just think it's like, comic mechanics? which is Fine. this isn't a complaint but i kinda feel we see it in atsv? like we had gwen, miguel, and jess’ combined strength to stop the helicopter in the beginning and they were visibly straining. maybe that was just because of how fast the helicopter was coming down but still, when you compare it to later on, when you have just gwen and hobie more or less holding up an entire chunk of the alchemax building.... it's interesting. and i mean, yeah, they weren't able to hold it up but. You know????

i think that's it. i really want to own this movie. there is just so much to it. it's so good. oh god

so you’d think my annual tradition would be just fucking signing up for chocolate box like a normal person

instead, my annual tradition is remembering about chocolate box just after nominations close, then going through the lists of nominations grumpy and judgmental bc people prompt all my niche fandoms but then exclusively prompt the notps i hate most

and then scrolling through and doing a few treats for the few people that match my esoteric and bitchily specific tastes

I was all set to subject myself to doing this recital thing this week that my music teacher is forcing on me.... and then my sister reminded me that the dude I ghosted last year will probably be there again. 

End me.
