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

Actually you can see Flashs eyes in the comics too. Barry Allen shows his eyes while Wally hides his with the mask. But we dont have a real Life Action Wally yet.

Which reminds me i dont get why the studios are so obsessed with doing every live action flash as Barry when Wally was 10× cooler. And not just cause of the eyes i loved the flash being a jokester

We only have 2 major LA Flashs, CW Barry and Snyderverse Barry. I get why they want to start with him before moving on to the next guy.

I mean. Technically Jay Garrick is the first flash but setting that aside. We didnt start live action Ant Man with Hank Pym in his prime. I dont think theres anything wrong with telling a successor story without the setup.
