132 - Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse
Spider-verse? More like Woke-verse, right? An extremely transparent attempt to cater to liberal America, SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE kills Peter Parker off to replace him with a minority because, why not? Listen to Alex, Julio, and returning guest Dan Brenic from Netflix N’ Swill, as they air their grievances with this much celebrated Oscar-winning Spider-Man animated adventure! Can the braintrust behind THE LEGO MOVIE ever take anything seriously? Are there subliminal messages hidden in the seizure-inducing animation? And why didn’t they make the whole movie about Spider-Man Noir???
