"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.

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 😅😅

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

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 😂

You tell Miles his father’s about to die, then it would be unrealistic to expect him to not try to save his father, knowing he already lost his uncle.

The whole "You're a mistake!" speech Miguel makes can be summarized with "And how's that MY fault!" Miles didn't create this spider, Miles didn't summon the spider, Miles didn't do anything. Someone ELSE brought the spider there, someone ELSE deprived a universe of their Spider-Man. Miles is just trying to play with the cards he's been dealt.

"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.

Miguel's premise of "Canon Events happen and there's nothing we can do about it" is the literal antithesis of "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility", which is all about doing the EVERYTHING you can, even when there is no hope.

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

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

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.

7:33 quick reminder the spider-sense only goes off when spider man is in harm's way/real danger. The spider-sense didn't activate during the train chase, wich means Miguel wasn't planning to actually harm him. But since it did in this scene... well, let's say Miles was lucky spider-byte didn't lower the shield...

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.

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

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.

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.

I feel like people don’t give enough credit to Shameik Moore. The way he voiced miles in this movie was honestly amazing and perfect. The way he sounds as he struggles to get Miguel off of him even when he whimpers and calls peters name. The way he genuinely sounded terrified as he was tied up to the punching bag in the end and tried reasoning with his uncle genuinely made me terrified for him. He did a amazing job voicing miles and honestly needs more credit for this movie

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.

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

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.
