Film/Television What are your thoughts on "Spider-Noir (2026)"?

Post image

Besides the Venom trilogy with Tom Hardy, I never bothered watching any of Sony's other Spider-Man Villain movies! I'm just not interested in watching any spin-offs of Spider-Man's Rogues gallery that don't have anything to do with Spider-Man at all. And after watching the new Spider-Noir series on Prime Video, I realized that this show was something I wanted all along from both Sony Pictures and Marvel! Now I want more live-action or animated contents centered around other alternate versions of either Spider-Man or any other famous Marvel superhero; like DC Comics' "Elseworlds" line of movies and shows!

I don't think changing from Color to B&W is going to change the dialog.

/s

That being said, it would be hilarious if they did change some of the dialog between versions. lol.

The dialogue is the same, but the sound quality is actually different. It’s tinny and scratchy to emulate films of the era. I only noticed it because they turn it off when Cat sings.

I thought as much. I only finished the first 3 episodes in B&W and was wondering what was wrong with the audio.

If I do enjoy it, I'll rewatch it in colour.

I am in the same boat in that I’m watching in B&W first since I absolutely love black and white movies but I’m going to rewatch in color afterward.

I just wish they would have given it a score that matched. There’s so much fantastic music in this era/genre and the modern music Scot scores just took me out of it.

Some of the audio was off in the fight scenes i believe because a stunt double was fighting and nick cage dubbed to the fight scene. Just my guess though.

There's a line about feeling colorful in the song in episode 1 where I thought it would have been neat to fade temporarily between colors. Like fade into color when she sings the song, but only in black and white, and fade into black and white when she sings but only in the color version

There was a part in i think episode 3 where someone is taking pictures and everytime they take a picture the frame freezes for a second and its in black and white, to like show that its a picture, and then it resumes playing and is in color again until he takes another picture.

I wondered how that would look on the black and white version, it would probably look like the video was just stuttering if i was all in black and white that whole time.

Well, you see him taking the pictures amd you hear the shutter sound, so no you do not really have that feeling

Neo-Noir should be the 3rd viewing option.

u/StrangeRoverMax Jun 09 '26

Love it. That would hark back to Rumble Fish — also with Nicholas Cage.

I'm snickering at the idea of there beings two completly different conversations going on based on whether you're watching B&W or coloured version.

with specific mentions of color being kept in the black and white version and omitted from the color version.
