I never understand how spiderpeople can walk on walls with their *shoes*

[macalcord]

Can I just say These "Cannon Moments" I think Miguel is responsible for them..He's convinced himself that tragedy makes Spider People so he intervenes so they can happen..If Miles hadn't saved that Captain he would have only died because of Miguel's orders to Gwen..It wasn't meant to be if it's preventable. I bet if we go back in time and look at the other's Cannon Moment..Miguel was there or had someone there to allow them to happen.

how can miles have canon events if he is the original anomaly

[JayFingers]

Here’s the thing: I think Miles *IS* supposed to be a Spider-Man in the grand scheme of things.

[screenwriterjohn]

Canon events happen ...unless the police captain quits. Hated that. Also Captain Stacey tried to be a good cop when he tried to arrest Spider Gwen. No favoritism.

[Sjono]

Canon events are my biggest issue with the series. It’s as egregious as She-Hulk introducing the idea of Kevin into the MCU, except this canon event is being applied to every medium of Spider-Man.

Saying that a spiderperson needs to have a tragedy or else the world will implode is a slap to the face of the character and the legacy.

Being Spider-Man isn’t supposed to be destiny. That just takes away the free agency of the individual spiderpeople. What happened to “anyone can wear the mask?” Now we’re being told only a specific individual can be Spider-Man?

One of the biggest appeal of Spider-Man is that he’s an Everyman character who’s situation could happen to anyone. I take big issue with there now being a crossmedia plot point that Spider-Man is now a chosen one

[shaunharn]

They promised us Japanese Spider-Man but he's not in there and we're just gonna let it slide??

[shaunsirti]

Technically Miles fathers’ death is not a canon event because Miles (Earth 1610) was never meant to be the Spider-Man of his universe. So he’s not the rule but the exception on how he can twist his fate.

I Actually think the shoes are just fabric that covers their feet kind of like a big giant onesie that you would wear bedtime and because the bottoms aren't really too big technically the same thing with the hands you know you got those little weird Harry looking hope things goes around the feet too idk just thinking about it

[maciejmaecki]

The last theory about Jefferson dies in every reality no matter Which role miles has in that universe, ,hero, villain, the normal guy ) its sound very weird maybe just for me

[kylehaynes]

Theory Gwen will sadly pass in the next film.

She stated every Gwen that finds her Peter Parker “Spider-Man” ends ups…you know.

She is now a “captain” of her own squad.

[Sleepingfishie]

So not going to address shoes? Just walking on walls

[Elvusmiw]

Will any of these questions will be answered? We shall see next year

[squanchmastersquanch]

Confusing? Either u guys don't pay attention to the movie or u gotta retake an English course. It was easy to follow.

[mandeepsaini]

This movie is the epitome of diversity done right. Nothing forced, just real characters being natural heroes. Loved Miles!

[robryanh]

Summer break for us New Yorkers. 2 Month Summer break July August

[grafikfx]

No one ever catches this mistake: Miles is half Black (dad) and half Puerto Rican (mom). Why is his last name a hispanic one? Not that it in any way hindered why I enjoyed this movie immensely. Just saying

[marssamuelzacarias]

What if Miles eventually doesn't save the Captain tho? I would like to see hpw tjat story plays out
