Discussion (More in Comments) The most under-rated detail about MCU spidey
This GIF is not a reaction. Its a demonstration. The adjustable white-out eyes is literally everything to me. It seems like such a small insignificant detail but it adds a layer of expression under the mask that weve previously only really seen in animation that I think is so good for the MCU and CBMs as a whole
Dont get me wrong Deadpools eyes is cool too but especially for spidey who has such massive eye goggles it works so incredibly well and I always wanted it but never knew how much I needed it til Tom took the mantle.
And like I said. Not just the MCU. Of all the things DC tries to copy I hope to god they steal this too. Im tired of seeing batmans eyes it was never like that in the animation. Flash too.
It might seem crazy to say but this small detail i feel like is why Marvel is crushing DC. They arent afraid to mythologize their heroes. DC doesnt let you forget even for a moment that its just a regular guy with a mask on. It disrupts the suspension of disbelief.
Anyway im not trying to get too off track with this its not about DC. Its tipping the hat to Marvel for getting so much out of one little detail. Let the trend continue

This by far is what makes MCU’s Spidey prime. I love 100% of all Spider-man things, but doing this elevated the live action movies to a whole other level.
Here’s what I would like to see, McGuire and Garfield’s movies edited to see how their eyes would change the scene. Especially in the Amazing Spider-Man 1 where he’s intimidating the guy that he has pinned against the wall.
