Comic Books & Movies Unite in Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse

SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE, swings onto 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack, and DVD on March 19 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment and Sony Pictures Animation. I was lucky enough to receive a copy of the DVD to do a review and I can’t believe what I just watched.

SPOILERS BELOW

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We all know the story: Boy gets bit by radioactive spider and becomes Spider-Man. There isn’t a secret story here. It has been told a lot over the years in different comic books and movies. So when I sat down to review Spider-Man into the Spider-verse, I expected something I had seen before but through the eyes of a new artist. Really, I thought, “Here comes another cliche story-line that writers seem to enjoy scripting where we have a background story leading to a climax. and finishing with a rather conducive end with the possible death of a hero or loved one.”

My thought of this being another cliche story was soon tossed into the wind provided by Spider-Man from 1933. You know, the one that likes to fight Nazis…a lot.

While this story of Spider-Man does feature the, “boy gets bit by a radioactive spider” scenario, Miles’ beginning is a little different. He starts by learning he is not alone in his endeavor to save the world. Heroes are everywhere, in everyone, and even in other dimensions, such as Peni Parker or Peter Porker.

Peni Parker from Spider-Man into the Spider-verse

Spider-Man into the Spider-verse is a roller coaster ride of emotions from laughter to tears, to an absolute galactic amount of awesomeness. I know this seems like an over exaggeration, but for a comic book lover like myself, this movie hit all the right notes. It’s as if a Spider-Man comic book came alive on my TV screen! Just look at the awesome art with the dialog in yellow boxes! (The fan-girl inside of me is screaming.)

The refreshing and bold design of Spider-Man into the Spider-Verse revitalizes the fandom with quirky characters, awesome art, and the seamless combination of comic books and movies. It is a must watch for any Spider-Man fan!

And yes, that is a Black and White Spider-Man trying to figure out the rubik’s cube in the image below.

Now if you will excuse me, I am going to go burn a match down to my finger tips and get in touch with my inner Spider-Man Noir.

Cubeecraft of Eugene Fitzherbert from Disney’s Tangled

“This is a story about how I died.” Well, Disney’s Tangled is a story about how Flynn Rider (also known as Eugene Fitzherbert) dies…I guess. However, it is more of an epic tale of thievery, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, and miracles! Wow, that went a little Princess Bride; but it works! Add a frying pan and a palace horse and things will get strange as the movie unfolds.

Ralph Breaks the Internet Movie Party Crafts from Disney Family

PHOTO BY KATIE MARBLE FOR DISNEY FAMILY

I fly over to Family Disney often to check out their new crafts, recipes, and printables. They usually have something new posted featuring the current movies or holidays the recent months will bring. I am never disappointed, and this time they released several fun ideas to make a wonderful Ralph Breaks The Internet movie party.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The DIY movie party items are wonderful crafts that can be created by most fans of Wreck it Ralph. I say most, because I often have that “Nailed it but not so nailed it” moment when it comes to most crafts. I tend to hide those monsters from the world and pray most kits have a “printable” that is simply a print and display sort of craft. Thank goodness this movie party craft kit has one! It contains a “How to” for:

  • Slaughter Race Cupcakes,
  • Vanellope, Ralph, Knowsmore, and Yesss Photo Booth Props,
  • WiFi Décor,
  • and (my favorite) Disney Princess “Comfy Squad” Straw Toppers

My favorite craft is the Printable straw toppers. They are as easy as print, cut out, and tape. And when they are completed, they add a great touch to the party. Also, I love the interactions between Vanellope and the princesses: Moana, Cinderella, Pocahontas, Ariel, Mulan, and Belle.

The printable straw Toppers can be downloaded here or from Disney Family’s Movie Party Website where they also share the other craft ideas for the props, decor, and cupcakes to create a wonderful Ralph Breaks the Internet Movie Party/
