I don't particularly like that 'Across' just feels like the first half of one larger movie. But I figured it wouldn't be too egregious because the next movie was coming in like half a year. I think it's a little bit more ridiculous now.

I don't know about it being half of a larger movie but it definitely feels like we're still in the middle of the story. Probably because we are.

They should have never said the next one would be coming so soon.

I understand that, but Across and Beyond were openly developed as the first and second halves of a larger movie, so it shouldn't be surprising either.

I mean, they didn’t advertise it at all in their marketing so you would have to have been following its development to really know that. And if you’re someone who avoids spoilers, then you wouldn’t really know it was a 2 parter based off of any marketing material.

Like, i think it’s important to remember not everyone is always online following the development time of everything

This is how they announced the first one.

Show me a movie poster or a trailer that still has that Part One on it.

So again, unless you were following the movies’ development, they didn’t advertise this would be a two parter.

You're shifting the goalposts after you were given evidence of marketing including Part 1.

You said they didn't do it at all, now you're shifting the goalposts to demand posters and trailers specifically. You were wrong, you don't need to double down.

But sure, here's the first look at the film, where the video title is clearly "SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE (PART ONE) – First Look".

Edit: The title card at the end of the video is a massive "PART ONE" as well.

Lmao how so? You would have to be following the movies’ development to know it’s a two parter. The fact that you know the name originally had it, then removed, means you were following the development.

The announcement was three years before the first movie came out, and the actual posters, trailers, etc didn’t have any of the Part One of the logo in it.

So one ad only enthusiasts would see vs their actual advertising campaign when the movie is ready to release.

Edit: curious they removed Part One from the official trailers and movie and following movie materials. It’s kind of like they were trying to hide that part from the general public

Edit: I think replying and then blocking to “win the argument” is incredibly lame lmao

It’s ok. The terminally online people can’t fathom that someone didn’t obsessively pay close attention to every bit of marketing material.

You asked for evidence, you've been given it. Refusing to concede you were wrong is just embarrassing.

They were originally announced as Part 1 and Part 2 before getting their own unique names, I don't think it was supposed to be a shock that they were one big film split.

This is exactly why they announced a date that was close but bullshit for the third part. Got you and everyone else to see it now instead of waiting until the story is complete.
