What's Up Danger? | Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse

Miles (Shameik Moore) gets some much needed encouragement from his father, Aunt May and his uncle, and is finally able to take the leap of faith.

Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the creative minds behind The Lego Movie and 21 Jump Street, bring their unique talents to a fresh vision of a different Spider-Man Universe, with a groundbreaking visual style that’s the first of its kind. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse introduces Brooklyn teen Miles Morales, and the limitless possibilities of the Spider-Verse, where more than one can wear the mask.

His hands breaking the glass showing there's still a sense of hesitation. Even though he's not totally sure he's ready, he goes for it. It really is a leap of faith.

[sirjules]

My favorite part is his father telling him he loves him. Its refreshing to have a superhero that has loving parents. Showing that his source of strength is the bonds with his family.

Everyone rightfully talking about the cinematics, but the honesty and heart of Jefferson talking to his son.. beautiful. I wish I had a dad like him.

I love Aunt May's Presence in this scene. She was _waiting_ for Miles the entire time, and never lost faith in him.
(Granted, her house was _destroyed, _ but still.)
The smile on her face when Miles descends down the elevator says it all.
*"Took you long enough."*

This is easily one of the best scenes in Spiderman history. The moment he understood how to control his powers and when he shot the webs. That was the moment he became Spiderman

[liamisaac]

The thing that always gets my tears flowing is the sad look on Jeff’s face when he says “you don’t have to say it back though” 🥺 Because from his point of view, Miles is still mad at him and he thinks he’s losing his relationship with his son the way that he did with his brother

[paulfradk]

Love this detail: The moment he leaps off from the building, the animation of his body goes from 12 frames to 24 frames per second, fulfilling his role to become Spider-Man

[stumboz]

This scene is so awesome. It really was an all-or-nothing leap of faith. The glass shattering when he jumped was a cool visual, but hid the subtle reminder that he was terrified in that moment. His hand was still stuck to the glass, and literally had to break free of it. He wasn't "letting go" of the fear, he overcame it...

[georgethomas]

This isn't just a great Spiderman moment. It's just a great moment in any media. Him choosing to take that leap. The angle framing it as a moment not of him falling but rising. Gives me chills. On top it being such a powerful moment for Miles as a character learning that being Spiderman is taking that leap. Making that decision to put himself in harm's way not because he has to but because he WANTS to. So powerful and gripping. Legit gives me goosebumps even years later. It's a shame it the character so long to get a good representaion is a shame because the comics have really given his character the shaft.

I don't usually cry when watching movies, but Jeffs speech to Miles ALWAYS gets me. Such a beautifully written moment.

I like how when he first looked up at the spidersuit with the gang, his reflection came up shorter (i.e. he felt like he was coming up short to be spiderman), but when he goes back, his reflection reaches the the face of the spidersuit, so he feels ready.

[j.a.george]

Literally just realized that Miles doesn't learn to control his bio-electric blasts until after his father tells him he sees a "spark" in him. Jeff is literally pointing out Miles' "spark", and that's how he was able to find it and control it. This movie is so densely packed with good writing, it's possible there's STILL stuff I haven't realized yet.

[Clementne.]

That last line, "I love you, you don't have to say it back though" hit so hard

[furionmax]

The thing i always liked about this scene(theres a lot) but what really sticks out is that Miles made a public spectacle of this.
He did his jump where everyone could see. He kept low to the ground so everyone could see him. He made plenty of noise. Ran on the sides of occupied buildings.

The city lost their spiderman. It was in despair. And Miles showed them that theres another spiderman looking out for them now.

[thatguy]

3:19 I love the storytelling of that shot. Miles is falling from a building, and yet, he is rising...

[ThePanode]

I love that pedestrians and the public also see Miles leap of faith. It's a subtle tell letting people know that there still is a Spiderman!

[LunaryonSunborn]

Man... Imagine what it has to be like for those people in that office that he went running across. This is what - A week, ten days since Spiderman was confirmed killed. Imagine how scary things would have had to have been at this point, with the realization that your friendly neighborhood spiderman is gone. Everything would seem darker, everything would be just that little more stressful because the one protector that everyone knows that they can rely on is gone.

And then, as the day fades into night, you hear a squeak of sneakers in a place where there shouldn't be any shoes like that, and glancing around there's someone outside the window. Running along the side of the building in a way that only one other person moved before, and with a thwip a familiar line of webbing comes soaring out.

Imagine how much better each of those people had to feel going home that night. Realizing that this might not be the same spiderman that they've come to know, but there is still a Spider-man here to save the day

[Double_D__]

Everything about this scene is just... phenomenal. Jefferson just trying to reach out to Miles with some of the most tearjerking love I've heard a fictional father give his son, Miles taking that love and his own determination to finally master his powers, taking Peter's, Jeff's, and Aaron's words all to heart and finally taking the leap of faith, and Miles fully coming into his own as Spider-Man, and as himself.


I love this scene and I am not ashamed to admit it always makes me tear up when I see it.

[kaleidoscopemediator]

I love the fact that Aunt May was waiting for him because she knew he'd return <3

[zachrobinson]

Underrated part of this scene is how much Jefferson’s VA sells this scene. The emotion in his voice is palpable. You can really feel it. Really sells the buildup for the rest of the scene, because it wouldn’t hit nearly as hard without it.
