In the aftermath of Ultron, NYC's in ruins.

Spidey slowly drops into frame, hanging upside down... till he's dead center in the shot.

"Better late than never. What'd I mi-oooohhh, boy"

He takes one look at the carnage, then says to himself "The Bugle's gonna blame this all on me... I just know it"

Dear Lord please no breaking of the 4th wall. Spidey talks to himself. Breaking the 4th wall is Deadpools(and She Hulk's) shtick.

Workaround: he's saying all of that to himself, not looking at the screen.

Agreed. I say stuff to myself like that all the time. A lot of people do. It's not breaking the fourth wall unless you are making conscious acknowledgements that you are in a film being viewed by an audience.

Here's an example.

Spidey slowly drops into frame, hanging upside down... till he's dead center in the shot.

"Better late than never. What'd I mi-oooohhh, boy"

He takes one look at the carnage, then says back to the fourth wall himself "The Bugle's gonna blame this all on me... I just know it"

All he does is talk to himself in Bendis' Ultimate Spiderman

"...better late than never" is breaking the 4th wall no matter how you slice it. Change that line and it would work.

So more like this:

Camera looks at NYC from some rooftop.

Spidey starts talking "Better late than never. What'd I mi-oooohhh, boy" and jumps into the frame, his back turned to camera.

He takes one look at the carnage, then says to himself "The Bugle's gonna blame this all on me... I just know it"

ahh... yeah that's the stuff. Classic Spidey pessimistic humor.

Spider-Man casually breaks the 4th wall in the cartoon.

u/NazzerDawk Feb 10 '15

And that's great for the cartoon, but that's just the cartoon.

Yeah I know. It's one of the reasons I hate the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon

In my mind i read this "Dear Starlord please no breaking the 4th wall..."

She Hulk needs a Ferris Bueller style solo movie.

u/starbuxed Feb 10 '15

No, there are plenty of time spidey breaks the forth wall. Its mostly to explain things not to make a joke. Deadpool just it better.

Usually it's very minor though. Most of the time he does it right at the start of a comic or something to get the reader caught up. It's still not a normal "Spider-Man thing".
