Do animals talk in this dimension?

I had been looking forward for several months to tonight's screening of Scarred Hearts (Inimi cicatrizate, 2016) at the HFA, but at the last minute I decided that perhaps I did not actually feel like watching a movie about being chronically-terminally ill in the face of rising fascism and instead spatch and I walked to the Brattle Theatre and saw Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018).

I'm delighted we did. It was great. The visuals were as excellent as promised and the storytelling just as strong. I may or may not write up it properly whenever my ability to think returns, but it was definitely a better choice than TB and World War II.

I'm glad you saw it! I found myself googling a lot of stuff afterwards, and I found a pretty plausible fan theory that Peter B. Parker is actually "our" Spiderman--that is, the one from "our" universe.

By the way, the B. apparently stands for Benjamin. Also, although I didn't notice it, some people caught that at the flash image of this Peter's wedding to Mary Jane, he steps on a glass. Hmmmm ....

Oh, neat. I wasn't looking for it at the time, so I don't remember whether his New York had familiar names and advertisements rather than multiverse variations ("PDNY! Stop!").

I did see that! Seemed like a perfectly normal way to get married to me.
