Across the Spider-Verse (2023)

Miles is missing his amazing spider friends, especially Spider-Gwen (as I am not exactly sure what her spider name is).  Actually, the movie starts with Gwen and her father, who blames Spider-Woman for the death of Peter Parker.  I think this is Earth 65.  Like the number matters in THIS movie.  She ends up at the Supremacy- I mean, Spider Society, where the Spider-People of all the multiverse meet and chat, I guess.  Miles makes a silly enemy- the Spot- into a truly powerful nemesis.  Gotta give the guys some respect, dontcha know.  He meets several more Spiders, including the Spider-Man he met last movie.  Peter has a daughter now, who has at least some of his powers.  Naturally, things get messed up, Miles gets blamed.  He leaves to go back to his universe, but things again go awry.

Spoilers ahead!

It is the wrong Earth.  Remember when DC Comics had about five or six Earths in their multiverse, and thought it was too much for readers to handle?  then, some 35 years later, both companies said "hold my beer" and have a ridiculous amounts of variants.  Damn Kang, ya really blew it with the TVA.  Also, apparently there are no other heroes in the Spider-Verse, other than the MCU.

I liked the movie,  It was over two hours, but moved along well.  There is no post credits scene, which was kinda nice.  Sadly, I did not see Takuya, but maybe in part 2.
