[Teen Talk] S2 Ep. 36 - When Terry Met Terry
Added 2023-06-28 04:05:00 +0000 UTC
SPOILER WARNING for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse from 21:30 - 26:32.
The Dad Crew sits down to talk about the latest episode including how everyone gets in their heads about the combat episodes, how Beth walked backwards into Anthony's plan, and the heartbreaking irony of Terry Jr. dying in front of Scary when she doesn't even know who he is.
Plus, they talk about the new Spider-Verse movie, the issues with multiverse movies in general, and then get into some surprisingly emotional territory talking about moments in media that help express feelings you couldn't pinpoint before seeing them.
Uggh the Sunday reference is perfect. That show, and Sondheim in general, is the best representation of what it’s like to live and love, and find purpose in the ‘worst’ of times

For me it’s the finale to the good place during the *SPOILER* sequence of Eleanor realizing chidi was ready to go through the arch but he was holding on bc she wasn’t ready and she has to let him go…. And then we realize Jason has been meditating and waiting for essentially thousands of years and walks with chidi omg it’s so sad but beautiful

If you cut out the roots it does work, but it can be barbaric if done wrong.

His death was set in stone… and being able to go out loving a child so deeply despite it was the cause of his death is the antithesis of Willie, and it’s beautiful 180 to his step grandfather.

My read was she was saying that 'multiverse movies' are best when they are about possibilities of branches/choices in your life, not about a literal multiverse like MCU stuff.

I know it’s a meme but Borderlands 2’s ending where Jack has his breakdown about being a hero actually did effect me. Helped me understand that people believe differently than I do, and has helped me now get people who have such different perspectives from myself

Just to point put, saying that it doesn't make sense that miles doesn't listen to people who seem to know better and trying to fix things his own way is a bit hypocritical when this season is entirely teens thinking they know better than their parent s and the consequences therein.

I thought the theme for spiderverse was actually crystal clear. It's about breaking with the expectations that others have for you, finding and fighting for your own way and wants. Almost every character follows it and the ones that don't are obviously set up to go down that route in the second movie.

I LOVE when yall argue about dumb shit. you are a part of my life nearly every day! Fighting my depression & bipolar swings with your banter. Similar to family, it feels real when you insist on your own way & figure out a compromise. It feels real for your characters too. I have no perspective on whats a good episode because its YOUR art. It would be like criticizing a tree for its uneven branches. People like it or don't.
Thanks for being daring & vulnerable. And sharing your art/hearts with us!

The book “The Rest of Us Just Live Here” by Patrick Ness has one of those moments. The main character has OCD and narrates how he goes from washing his hands to being stuck in a compulsive behaviour loop, and it stopped me dead in my tracks because it hit home somehow. Despite his recognition of what’s going on he feels so powerless.

Hey! Tip for Anthony as a sort of writer of this type of thing, If you hadn't been able to use the prophecy in this episode I think my best advice would have been to save it for when Scary finally manages to reconcile with her father
it would have definitely been a severe emotional gut punch for the character in the audience to see them sort of embrace each other fully for the first time and then immediately rip it away violently never to be seen again, and by then everybody would have definitely forgotten about it.
Granted, maybe that might not work with the direction you're headed, but it's probably what my first choice would have been.

How are we not talking about the fact that Willie didn’t have the collars on- Barry did.
Josiah Muskrat
2023-06-29 20:31:45 +0000 UTC
Also the movie is not about not listening to adults it's very clearly about not following along with fate and making your own story rather than just following the "story". Also there is a clear issue with Miguel's logic that we the audience see that the other characters except Gwen, don't see. I think Gwen can see that only the spiderman in their universe can change the future, even if they do gain knowledge of said future. It's why Gwen's universe is still standing despite her father stepping down from Captain.
Karter Michaels
2023-06-29 17:55:57 +0000 UTC
The thing with the two Miles is that prowler Miles was more than likely what the Miles we followed was supposed to end up like. It's not a, our Miles fucked over this world" moment it's a "this is what you were supposed to be" moment. It's two characters who had their destinies swapped now seeing what they were supposed to be.
Karter Michaels
2023-06-29 17:52:45 +0000 UTC
Had my gripes about Across the multiverse, definitely not as cohesive as the first film. I think its funny though that one of Matt's gripes is that the films message is 'Don't listen to adults, even if they're way more knowledgeable than you.' Isn't this fundamentally the same theme of this season of Daddies? Especially excemplified in Matt's character Link!

2023-06-28 23:24:06 +0000 UTC
My theory regarding Matt's point about Spider-Verse is that Miguel isn't telling the complete truth about canon events and it could be a lot of his own self-pity driving the focus of the "spider society". I haven't thought too deeply about it though.
Also if Normal resurrects Terry what if Grant just shoots him again, immediately

Adam Morley
2023-06-28 21:42:27 +0000 UTC
Just saying revivify requires 300gp worth of diamonds that the spell consumes. So Anthony you don't need to come up with a reason why they can't resurrect him it's just clear that normal isn't walking around with diamonds in his pocket. Most resurrection spells have a material cost which is what makes it harder to just spam those spells.

I wanted to hear what Beth had to say about multiverse movies being the best when they don't touch the multiverse. Everyone cut her off :(
Frankenjam
2023-06-28 20:41:55 +0000 UTC
I think what worked for me in that middle section of Across the Spiderverse with the canon events and how Miles responds is the conversation of if trauma is needed for growth or change. Like Peter B. says something responding to Miles about Uncle Ben’s death like “We wouldn’t be who we are without that,” or something like that and I remember thinking in my head that “does it have to be that way?” and sorta meditating on the idea that trauma or bad events in one’s life need to be a catalyst for growth. They can be but, I feel like somewhat anti humanist that people can’t do good things without some trauma igniting it and to a wider extent that things are the ways that they are with the spider canon and cant be changed.
That’s why I really admire how Miles rejects that status quo and along with Hobie’s push to escape who embodies that resistance to the status quo decides to do his own thing.
I mean I might be off base here and it might just be another coming of age story about a kid who has to settle and realize that he can’t have everything but man it would be so nice if they somehow let Miles have his cake and eat it too. I would feel like it would fall into that narrative of him being an anomaly outside of that system that Miguel is trying to keep him in.

the moment for me is in arcane when vi leaves powder behind when she goes to rescue vander. powders destructive sadness and anger in that scene... i have never related that hard to a fictional character. they do such a good job of portraying her sadness, and how easily she could spiral if she had no support. amazing
mari
2023-06-28 17:12:23 +0000 UTC
I think a moment that always gets me in media is in Haikyu (both the manga and anime) when things speed up so much in the last point of the Inarizaki match and Hinata slows the pace down with a simple, high set. Such a beautiful summation of the results of hard work and focusing on the basics and how those sorts of things pay off in the long run.

I was walking home from work while listening to the episode. I actually, with my whole human mouth, said "nooo!" when Terry was shot. To the great confusion of an elderly woman walking along near me. I just sort of smiled weakly and gestured to my headphones, and she took the opportunity to cross the street at the next intersection.

I like that idea tbh. The multiverse is infinite and, yeah, like 10,000 spideys do seem a lot but that's only 10,000 out of an infinite amount. It's a lot but it's then not just Miles who's not okay with it.
I also like the idea that they're kinda kept in the dark and only recruited after the canon event.
Idk, have to see how the sequel resolves the idea but I am a touch concerned. Hope they land it satisfyingly.

Will’s speech about the moment in Star Wars put all of my thoughts about it into words! I agree that it’s my favorite moment in the whole saga.
Rachel McVicar
2023-06-28 12:36:13 +0000 UTC
I think of one way to look at it is that Miguel (and possibly Jessica) are the ones who recruited this spider society. This possibly isn’t every spider person in the multiverses. So they hand picked who got in and at what time period they were “qualified” to join. Like they picked spider people who, at a point in their life, have experienced their canon events and have comes to term with their eventuality. Just a theory.
Goliathspider22
2023-06-28 12:36:08 +0000 UTC
They were talking about the theme of into the spider-verse and how they couldn’t quite pin it down. I think the theme is supposed to be about moving from childhood into the adult world and the effect it has on not just the kids but the parents as well. How many of us went into the adult world found the people “like us” (aka the spider society) and then had to find out that our people don’t necessarily have our best interests at heart. I found a lot of parallels between joining the film industry, finding people that I live in this industry, and also figuring out that this industry sucks in a lot of aspects and that there are a lot of bad people here but also a lot of good as well. This theme runs through both Gwen and Miles but also their parents having to watch their kids grow up. It’s best summed up when Mike’s mom says she’s just scared they won’t accept and support him like they will. I doubt they’ll read this but that’s my general take.

James Lewis
2023-06-28 10:34:10 +0000 UTC
My biggest issue with the spider-verse movie is that I don't know if I believe all those other spideys would be okay with people dying.
Spidey doesn't let people die, he fights forever to stop it. It's a little odd that Miles, apparently, is the only one not Okay with the canon events.
I understand that Miguel caused billions of deaths when he fucked up that world but, idk, I still think Spidey would *try*.
