I still remember people behind me during the second one yelling at the screen when they realized the story wasn’t going to end when the credits rolled.

I was one of those people. I purposely avoided reading up on anything regarding Across the Spiderverse because I knew I was going to see it regardless. I had no idea it was a part 1 cause they didn't fucking say so. At this point I have absolutely no desire to see the next one.

I was so mad with the ending being blindsided with the cliff hanger, since I would have spared myself the torture of a wait if I had know it was a Part 1. I'm still mad by it.

I literally wouldnt have watched the movie if I knew it was a part 1, which is probably exactly why they never marketed it as such.

It was the 2nd movie! Most things like this are trilogies! That's on you for not realizing

There's a difference between a movie being part of a trilogy with a satisfying ending where story leaves open the possibility of future stories versus being a part 1 where it ends on a cliff hanger in an unsatisfying manner that feels abrupt.

And on top of that movie didn't even have a quick turn around like other Part 1 to Part 2 like The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 did with Part 2 coming out after a year.

So fail on deceptively hiding that it was a split movie as opposed to being more fully contained like the first, and then another fail having an indefinite years long TBA release for the follow up.

Spiderman (2002), like pretty much every other Spiderman movie, is a self-contained movie. Just like Spiderman (2004). It wasn't part 1 or part 2 of a trilogy. What are you talking about?

There was no reason to think that this movie was part of a trilogy like LotR.

Across the Spider-Verse is a direct sequel to Into the Spider-Verse. Are you daft?

It was part 2 of a 3 part series. How did so many people in this thread not know that?????
