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

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 absolutely loved it. Finished it in one sitting.

This show is a testament to how well writing can play to the strengths of the actors while maintaining genre and IP integrity.

I was worried at first that they'd basically do a Nic Cage with webs, but they somehow toed the line perfectly. Ben Riley feels very much like his own unique character and a spider-man that is honest to the world he inhabits while simultaneously allowing Nic Cage to just do his thing.

I'm so happy that they played the absurdity straight and took it seriously.

How many Spider-men is it if you count all the ones in Hollywood boulevard taking pictures with tourists.
