@@AssassinJay I’ve experienced sleep paralysis before and my current method of dealing with it is to just forcefully wake myself up forcefully. Or it may be a nightmare idk, but I just force myself awake then sleep and rinse and repeat until I finally get a good roll.
I experienced that sh1t twice, but before that, I was actually aware of that issue so I didn't open my eyes, it was scary as hell, trying to move my body but I felt I was tied to my bed, I felt a pressure in my chest that gave me the feeling of not breathing properly, and all I could hear was some kind of distorted noise, I wonder what I could've seen if I had open my eyes💀 If it happens to you, don't be afraid, just deep breath and close your eyes. It'll fade away sooner, It helped me a lot🫡 In fact, I'm hoping it happens to me again. The next time, I'll open my eyes 😂
Nah fr, Miles and Jeff's relationship is like 1:1 me and my dad's. Like I really wanna be closer, but we're just so different that it can be hard to connect sometimes, but at the end of the day we always got each other.
This is the single best portrayal of anxiety I have ever seen in media. It starts off small, you spend an hour just spacing out, staring at a spot on the floor, you crawl into bed, end up a crying mess while not knowing why, then finally talking to someone. Fantastic job.
Jesus can cure it and help you He will fulfill you more than anything in this world, I speak from experience (from when i did Romans 10:9-13), he loves you and wants to be in a meaningful (not romantic) relationship with you. :) “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:9-13 KJV “and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.” Mark 1:15 KJV If you want proof that Jesus and the Bible are true look a documentary called “Ron Wyatt discoveries 2022” on UA-cam and a UA-cam channel called Expedition Bible. They both examine archeological sites and discoveries that prove the Bible, and even reference secular sources. (Just don’t convert to 7th day Adventism after watching the documentary) And lastly if you don’t know the gospel and want to be saved search up “abc’s of Salvation Teenmissions” on Google and it should be the first or second result. When you click on it read the whole thing, and do what it says and have faith in Jesus while you are doing it, do not doubt, and if it is hard for you to do what it says, ask Jesus to help you, have faith that he will, and *he will.* God Bless :)
OK but for real? Jeff is such a well written father here. Doesn't force his son to join in for movies despite putting on a very notable amount of effort for the two of them, cause he can see his son clearly wants space. And when Miles chooses to come to him? he's all ears out the gate.
Honestly that's a freaky detail because I've never known the Spider Sense to raise a false alarm so it really speaks to the level of panic he's feeling in that moment.
@@KikiKiki-le9qe yep, I'm in the car with my dad right now and I'm just like... Damn I wish he'd ask me how I was or give half a crap about my existence!
I love how they conveyed the idea of him having a panic attack without being completely straightforward. All his thoughts building up and him recalling the events of the day (which is normally a trigger), feeling like he can' t move, the sleep paralysis creature pushing down on his chest (like when your chest tightens and you can't breath), the swift swaying motions? The colours? The music?. This is amazing.
One of the reasons Miles is my favorite superhero is because he's portrayed as such a normal person rather than just a super strong superhero with no emotions (other than grief cause name a superhero that doesn't lose someone lol). You never see a representation of anxiety in a superhero that's as real as this, a long with his feeling of not fitting in in the movies, and his simple wish to not have to meet everyone's expectations.
I know everyone is saying "That is just Spider-Man", but really I kinda feel "That is just Marvel". Marvel has always been written from the standpoint of "Person first, Hero second", trying to show that all of their heroes have actual lives, things that they are responsible for outside of their "Hero Job" and that usually being a hero hurts their "real life".
On a serious note: That depiction of anxiety where he put on the headphones only to find things got *even worse* was the most pitch-perfect thing I've seen in years. I've had anxiety for way longer than I've had it diagnosed, and while headphones can help when there's too much noise, it won't help when it's *coming from inside the house.* It can make you feel so *powerless* , but Miles made the right call here. On a less serious note: _I wonder if Spiders-Man will show up in Spider-Verse 3?_
THIS!!!! I love to use music as a way to calm me down when I'm feeling anxious but sometimes with headphones, it can feel overly stimulating that I just need to take them off. Genius depiction!
And it's crazy because it's like we do have somewhat of a Spidey-sense that tricks us, too. We don't notice everything, but we get those gut feelings and most of the time, it plays us. Or is that just me?
Love how anxiety is being talked about nowadays because it wasn’t when I was a kid. It feels better to know you’re not the only one that lives with this nightmare that never completely goes away.
there's anxiety and then there's GAD (general anxiety disorder) which is basically chronic anxiety that affects your everyday life. there is help out there. don't be afraid to reach out to a professional though, even if you don't think it's that bad. there is hope.
@SpiritOfWisdom11The world doesn’t revolve around what we want to see nor should it. Mental health is something to be worried about for sure but you’re coming off as entitled. If you don’t like it, you literally have the option of clicking off the video. The world doesn’t and shouldn’t cater to you.
@@SceneWins HUGE Oof! there, mate! I really hope it never happens to you again. (Or anyone else I know. The few Night Terrors I had when much younger were more than bad enough and I'd really like to never get to experience Sleep Paralysis myself, cause it sounds so very much worse.
“These grades are unacceptable. You’re not focused! You need to apply yourself” This movie hits so hard those exact words have been said to me so many times.
The foreshadowing of the anxiety with the mirror showing his sleep paralysis demon following him is insane. Such a small detail of what you see yourself as when you're in that state of mind
Anyone who has suffered from sleep paralysis knows that this is a great representation of stress and anxiety from everyday life can affect anyone to the sleep paralysis state. Being so tired but not knowing if you’re awake or asleep and unable to move seeing a silhouette press down on your chest and your can’t speak or do anything about it, captured it perfectly there. Good job Sony 👏
I really like how they interpretated things like mental health and anxiety and stuff. The fact that Miles' stress between being a hero for the people while also trying to live as a normal kid and stuff is really getting to him, starts making him see things that aren't actually there. The sleep-paralysis demon thing was also done great! Just miles in a room staring at a wall, but a silhouette of himself just staring back at him, that's scary as hell!
i love how it delves into the mental/psychological effect stress can have on people. this shows awareness for those struggling with mental health and anxiety, this is how it feels.
in one of my own stories this is a major theme. Like its a team of magical girls and not a true deconstruction as their being normal heroes and the like but under the surface theres all these demons they are fighting andtheleader most of all but shes trying to be the rock for her team while she herself spirals deeper and deeper into a bad place

Who says animated movies are just for kids? The amount of representation for preteen, teenage, and sorta even adult life here is amazing. Jeff is also a great father in this short. And the way Miles was so honest with him straight away in their strole. Wow this was amazing. Seriously, that rumored animated R Rated Venom movie must happen!!!!!
@@ImTooOldForThisNonsenseThe Oscars introduced the best animated movie category with “something for the kids” like a year or two ago, so sadly ppl still do
@@ImTooOldForThisNonsenseBob Chapek, The CEO of Disney from '20-'22, said animation is just for kids. That sentiment is more prevalent than you think it is and films like the spider-verse saga are making strides to break it down.
@@ImTooOldForThisNonsense I may have been paraphrasing out of not remembering his actual words but on reflecting and revisiting his actual quoted words, he says that adults would want to watch something for them which heavily implies he thinks adults are naturally inclined towards live action film. And I'm not really sure what you're referring to with plastic trophies, I was just using Chapek as a notorious example of people _still_ saying animation is just for kids or other similar sentiments. It definitely is getting better and it is a dying sentiment but there are still plenty of people prepared to dismiss a lot of good stories just because the medium in which they're being told is animation.
Miles is so lucky, having a supportive and fun father he have... Not comparing my dad to him, my dad has anger issues but can't blame him because of his past
I don’t know your dad or what he’s been through, but his anger issues shouldn’t be getting in the way of your relationship with him. If it’s feasible, he might want to seek professional help to address them.
Honestly I like the fact that they're showing the human side of a superhuman, reminding us that they still got problems they're challenging just like everyone else
I love all spidermans, but this is special to me. When you grow you forget how it is to be a teenager, he makes me remind a lot of things, how hard it was, how lost you are, how the emotions are so strong. I'm eager to see the next movie, Go Miles! You can do it!!
Im glad to see such a good family being pushed in mainstream, seems like alot of superhero tropes is dead parents or just terrible parents. But miles trusting his dad is just so insanely wholesome
I absolutely love the representation of the something which is seen as an ally, giving him his powers being the issue, like its the start of his problems, also being inescapable as they're small and agile , something people fear especially with the idea that you eat a certain amount every year, and that it's starts as a dark reflection you can't hurt, it's perfect, and the callback to when tobey was stressed and dealing with negative issue leading his powers to stop working, genuinely shows the care this series is given, legit 100/10
Man, I love that they made this. It really brings Miles responsibilities and struggles to life, showing why he yearns to associate with other Spider people. It perfectly segways into ATSV
It feels like we rarely get to see strong, component, and good fathers in their son's lives in the media, especially in stories involving people of color. This seemed very wholesome. Well done.
Agreed, so glad that we're finally moving away from the incompetent bumbling dad archetype or in the case of POC fathers, completely absent from their child's lives.
Family Matters, The Cosby Show, My Wife and kids, One on One, Fresh Prince, The Jefferson, Roc, Good times, New York Undercover, Bernie Mac, Craig Up the Creek, Smart Guy, Proud Family, and of course Everyone Hates Chris. Is the ones I can name.
But he’s also goofy and enjoys pizza and ice cream nights. I wish my dad could lighten up but he’s a vet so the most we got was the pizza and ice cream
I have seen a lot, so maybe you are not watching the right kind of media. also, every human being is ''of color''. we are all shades of brown mixed with red. if you want to refeer to ''black people'' (black is not a color, by the way), then just say it. don't try to make a monolith of brownish people.
This was probably a deleted scene at some point, but I thought it was too good to just leave as a deleted scene, so they incorporated into this short film. Even if I'm wrong, this was a great way to represent anxiety and panic attacks in a artful way. You literally feel like you're dying. Knowing you have all of this in your head, it's like a coca cola, you shake it up for so much and when youu have enough you just explode because you can't take it anymore
@@l.e.x.i.t.o yeah, someone else mentioned that its the suit from the first movie, but the reason she's not there is likely because her job is as a nurse: nurses tend to work long hours & night shifts!
The relationship with miles and his dad has always made me cry in each movie, the way that they both seem to seclude themselves and their emotions unless one or the other really needs them to listen or talk to them. I love the relationship there and how its been built, reminds me of my father. I hope that miles is able to save him in the next movie.
Miguel’s wrong. Miles is an anomaly he’s Spider-Man, our Spider-Man. No matter what it takes, Miles will find a way back to his Earth, save his father and stop spot. Even if it means he has to take on Miguel or the whole Spider-Society, he’ll win.
@@raymondmaciel4047No miles isn't an anomaly he is spider man even before the alpharex incident his spider got summon and even if spider would have to stop that his spider was still suppose to be here
this is so simple yet so touching. they did a good job at making anxiety not seem like this "quirky" or "fun" thing. and I mean under all that the kid is just a teenager, and being one alone isn't easy, let alone being a superhero.
I love how this puts into perspective not only how much of a psychological burden being Spider-Man and having all that responsibility while needing to keep it all secret and bottled up really is, but also the pain he felt in Across the Spider-Verse when he found out his friends, in his eyes the only people in literally all the universes he feels he can talk to, all abandoned him. He puts his life on the line every single day while trying to balance his every day life and keep his family safe by emotionally pushing them away and keeping secrets, then he finally gets to meet all the people he thought he could rely on and trust again and finds out they chose not to visit him for years. Man I love the character work in these movies.
Okay, let's do this one last time. My name is Miles Morales. I was bitten by a radioactive spider, and for the last year and four months, I've been Brooklyn's one and only Spider-Man, and things are going great
THIS is so important. "That person who helps others simply because it should or must be done, and because it is the right thing to do, is indeed without a doubt, a real superhero." Being there and just listening to someone's problems can save lives.
That’s sweet - he ended up spending time with his dad to help him through anxiety and let his dad know what he’s feeling, allowing him to connect with his son more
Except he basically lied to his father about everything bothering him, or minimized it all to the point of being ineffectual. Not sure they’re sending the right message with this one. Maybe Spiderman, a guy with a secret identity, a vigilante with a SECRET LIFE, isn’t the best character for this story.
I just noticed when Miles enter his house, you can see the dark silhouette of him in the mirror's reflection. I love those little details. It shows the other side of Miles and how he feels inside.
I absolutely love how they showed all the ways Superhero-ing would mess with his life. Seeing him initially fight back and then lose as a core part of himself is turned on against him was great. And seeing him choose to get help as limited as it could be was a great way to end it. Was so glad this wasn't a rehash of his ITSV trauma and a accumulation of his own life's problems
yeah imagine being called "Unresponsible" but you're actually responsible for saving the city or being called "selfish" even though you risk your life saving people all day. Being a hero definitely comes with trauma but you got to push through and not give up
I was thinking it either got mixed up by the horror movie, or that he couldn’t react to it since he was at home, whether that he because he’s in a safe place or just out of caution in case someone’s around.
@@overstim Feels like it was a combo of all the above. Not a real threat + Horror movie setting expectations + Safe place... it literally didn't go off until the second his dad intended to jump-scare him.
I noticed how Miles barely got to lay down or before down before being attacked, it kinda shows how even out of being Spiderman and out of being Miles he doesn’t get a break, or at least time to relax
@@crowdlycrow3632 Then notice how Miles barely even got any sleep to begin with, it's like telling him no matter, where he is, or what he is doing, he is doesn't get a break, even in his own sleep
@@fuzzyslippas It definitely puts in the question of Which form of responsibilities is more important, The risks and dangers of saving lives as Spiderman, Or being The Miles that everyone wants to succeed, obviously Miles wants “being Spiderman” to be more important then himself, while not realizing that he is still Human, and needs to move forward in that half of himself as well
Miles laying on the bed with wide eyes staring at the ceiling probably thinking "Why am I doing this" is peak cinema. All that weigh of growing up and living up to the mantle and trying to brush it off just to sink deep is such a great and believable reaction. This is why I love this character, he just feels real and not a cringe quip machine.
@@11porfo okay right I thought when u said “he feels real and not a cringe quip machine” you were implying that Peter is one which would be nonsense. I agree the mcu has become that since after end game
Miles might be the most relatable and down to earth superhero weve had in years. Everyones had nights like this where they feel weak and powerless and afraid and its represented do well here.
Words cannot express how big of an impact this movie series has had on me. I didn’t know this short existed until today & it still had me choked up at the end. I just wanted to hold Miles & tell him everything will be OKay. Superheroes have a ton of pressure on their shoulders constantly. Miles especially because of him being so young & in school. There’s so much pressure ahead of him to be as good as the older heroes with more experience plus getting good grades. Miles has a special place in my heart & it’s good to see he can confide in his dad even without telling him about his secret life
One thing I love about Miles in comics is ever since he got put in the 616 universe and got both his parents back, writers have been more willing to get vulnerable with the character. And he always has a support system to go to in his parents and Peter (especially once his parents learned about him being Spider-Man). It's great to read when he starts feeling overwhelmed with everything and can call his parents for support or is willing to ask other heroes to pick up the slack so he can take a breather.
I know everyone was memeing about this depicting a panic/anxiety attack because it became the "popular" thing to do (referring to movies covering the subject). But this really was a great depiction of them. The feeling of weight on your chest, like you're backed into a corner, your mind going 1,000mph - it's all captured so well. I'm really glad that this was able to be made and shared
@SpiritOfWisdom11 What demon are you talking about and spiders 🕷️ are associated with miles not to mention you haven’t even explained how it affects the mind just that it does.
I love this short film cause it reminds us that at the end of the day superhero's despite all their powers and achievements are still human. He's still a 17 year old boy at this point and all of his problems and responsibilities are piling up and will soon crush him if he's not careful. He should enjoy being a kid doing kid things.
For those who want to know this was an animated short from a film festaval or at least a short played before the main film. Remember that dream Miles had about being a spider a pooping out webs? Well this is that dream.
@tbg-brawlstars In across the spider verse miles talks to the spot (I think) and says “I had a dream about shooting webs out of his but” and @Jonathan_Collins thinks this is his dream about that line of dialogue.
I feel like this short film must resonate for a lot of people with anxiety. Although there are great parents doing their best to push you to succeed they don’t know the whole story, and how much stuff you have in your life going on that isn’t just school.
This felt like a mix of Sleep Paralysis and Panic Attack. Sleep Paralysis is where you see a monster in your "dream" and you know you can't do anything at all, having absolutely no strength, and having like a whole planet smashed onto your chest. Its a really good short film that sends the message about how sometimes its fine to ask for help, and sometimes we have to do better to offer help to those who might need it
Sleep paralysis is when your body is still in a sleep state while your mind is awake. The reason you can’t move is because your body restricts motor function while you’re sleeping to stop you from moving around as you dream. The “demon” comes from the chemicals in your brain that would normally let you dream being used while you’re awake, causing a hallucination. The often frightful nature is just a side effect of the fear and unease that comes from not being able to move.
@@Rebecca_George I guess you could say that at the start was him witnessing it as a human. Which further explains why it just looks like Miles. Overtime as he moves more and more freely, especially the fact he climbs and uses his power, his demon starts to turn as the Spider. 2 Conflicting demons. Him facing as Miles, and the other facing as Spider-Man. Maybe that explains how he’s slowly able to move freely during the “sleep paralysis”
I like how you guys depicted sleep paralysis, the LED strobe-light eyes on the sleep paralysis dude was EXACTLY how I have been seeing them for years and no one ever seemed to echo that.
feels like a trailer to the last sequel we’re gonna get@@Onepieceistheworstanime (Your user is so big it’s breaking my YTB’s technical ability to comment 😂)
@@OnepieceistheworstanimeIt's just meant to be a mental health awareness promo. It shows us how much Miles struggled to balance his double life (sometime after the first film), how much it was affecting him mentally to shoulder this much responsibility.
This short film is awesome to see, not just having Miles overcome his own mental health trauma and responsibility, but to talk about his own personal problems, which I figured that The Spider Within's story has already foreshadowing the plot for Beyond the Spider-Verse, it would focus on Miles and Gwen, with the latter having to overcome her anxiety and inner demons to find him and save everyone and dimensions they tried to protect to make a difference.
What a deep, mature, and wholesome story. Jeff used to be a strict father, that until he loses things. He knows the pain of loss. Hearing Miles out of where he stands with life without being harsh to him tugged on my heartstrings. Can't wait for beyond the spiderverse!
Only seeing this now but the anxiety miles is feeling is all to real. The shaking, the weight on his chest from the shadow person, the hallucinations of feeling things crawling on you and more. This is really well done and well executed.
I feel like Stan Lee would be proud of this; a short but sweet project on how, like all of us, even Spider-Man has something going on beneath the surface and I think the message of communication with a trusted figure over bottling it up is really important ❤
This and The Last Wish's portrayal of a panic attack was the best thing I have ever seen. As someone who struggles with chronic anxiety, seeing that level of accuracy is meaningful to me.
I kinda hope this becomes a part of Miles as a character, Comic Miles has been dealing with anxiety and panic attacks and seeing him overcome it represented in more media would be amazing
Wasn't the same thing that happened with Toby Peter McGuire? Where he was dealing with a lot of anxiety and depression that he couldn't shoot web from his wrists anymore? Because that's what this whole scenario reminds me of.
My god man, the paralysis demon being nothing but a black silhouette descending straight down with its hand outstretched is so accurate. That is how my first experience with sleep paralysis went down
I love how supportive and kind of a father Jeff is. Plans out time to hang out with Miles, gives Miles space when he needs it, and ready to listen when Miles needs to talk. It's so sweet to see. Also love the way Miles' anxiety is potrayed, like how his spider sense goes off even when there's no threat, simply due to how stressed out he's feeling. Really well done.
Its very rare that we see these types of themes addressed in comic book movies anymore, mostly because everyone knows everyones secret identity and theres no need to live a double life since its all merged into one. Im glad sony made this, its good for kids to see that their heroes struggle just like them and itll help get them through it
I love the little details in this, like the sleep paralisis demon being reflected in the mirror instead of Miles at 1:26, the spider pork figure in the bookcase at 2:34, the fact that the sleep paralysis demon beeing practicaly identical to miles representing the bad part of beeing an spider-man and more stuff that I shure didn't notice!
At first Miles didn’t want to talk to his dad about his anxiety and feelings of being overwhelmed, he tried to cope with it alone in his room with his headphones. When he realized he couldn’t cope with it alone he decided to speak to someone about it, his father. It is always important to vent your emotions and feelings with other people so you feel better. Holding it in will do more damage than good in the long run. Amazing short film ❤️
god, the sleepwalkin' (well, crawlin' in his case), sleep paralyze, the shadow man nightmare, the short breath, the chest pressure that makes u unable to breathe properly, every moment of this short movie is just a great depiction of stress and panic attack GOD DAMN MAKE A SPIDERVERSE SERIES ALREADY!!!
finally some characters who can accurately display what its like to be a kid nowadays, i like peter alot obviously hes my favorite spiderman and favorite character ever but miles is just so much more relatable, society sucks today, school is hard, people are hard, everything is hard, and miles characters represents anxiety, stress, someone low on sleep, it feels accurate
@SpiritOfWisdom11 the thing I would say to your viewpoint is that while this is a depiction of a panic attack, it's also an accurate representation of anxiety attacks for a lot of people. So while you may not agree with the portrayal or symbolism, that doesn't stop the people who deal with in real life from dealing with it and experiencing what they do. For a lot of people, accurate representation helps them feel less isolated. Visuals like this, while you may believe them to be detrimental, seem to have a positive effect on people.
His spider sense was white, instead of BLUE/RED nor Purple His inner dreams were confirming that he was loosing his confidence & braveness with his spider powers and being bad at school too. So if it’s another variant Miles, I could believe it but I really loved this short film!!
You could be right, Miles' mother wasn't in this short at all. And in that other universe at the end of the second film, it was Miles' dad that wasn't around. This is definitely building up to something big in the next movie.
The feeling of spiders crawling all over really sold it to me, the team behind this series never fails to amaze me. And I love that when Miles reaches out, his dad takes it. Especially fathers in film tend to be closed off towards their kid, so this with all the little details and jumpscares, is AMAZING.
I hope people who are suffering through things like this get the help they need and if you are one of those people reading this remember to take time and talk to ones you love about your feelings
YALL MAKE THE BEST MOVIES BRO like honestly the portrayal of anxiety and mixing a superhero movie with real life situations and emotions that are so well thought out and shown is pure wonders
I like how he sensed Jeff but still acted surprised to sell it. It contrasts how he's hiding stuff from him in the beginning of the short and then opens up to him at the end.
At 5:04, u can see the drawing of Gwen that miles is working on. Plus let’s not forget that Gwen also hasn’t stopped thinking about miles by keeping her haircut and the photo of them in her drum set.
They absolutely cooked with the sleep paralysis design. No creepy monster or anything, but rather your silhouette with glowing eyes, standing there
Yep, creepy at all 😭
It would be scarier if we were the ones experiencing it
@@AssassinJay I’ve experienced sleep paralysis before and my current method of dealing with it is to just forcefully wake myself up forcefully. Or it may be a nightmare idk, but I just force myself awake then sleep and rinse and repeat until I finally get a good roll.
I experienced that sh1t twice, but before that, I was actually aware of that issue so I didn't open my eyes, it was scary as hell, trying to move my body but I felt I was tied to my bed, I felt a pressure in my chest that gave me the feeling of not breathing properly, and all I could hear was some kind of distorted noise, I wonder what I could've seen if I had open my eyes💀
If it happens to you, don't be afraid, just deep breath and close your eyes. It'll fade away sooner, It helped me a lot🫡
In fact, I'm hoping it happens to me again. The next time, I'll open my eyes 😂
@@labbit35how do you forcefully wake youself up from it?
With the trope of superheros always having bad or dead parents, it's nice to see Miles' father actually be there to support him.
I mean...until the next movie
@@ToonsInk.We don’t know if he’s actually going to die. Miles is still trying to save him he has til next day. It’s still night time in the story.
**Spot Theme Intensifies**
me when uncle aaron
In the comics, Miles dad is dead. I don't actually think he'll die in the next film, but if he does, it'll be heart-wrenching
It hurt so bad to see him reject his dad like that when he put in all that effort, and then I realized I’ve done that before. This was fantastic.
Yeah, the things we took for granted and realized too late 😢
@@soulscyther666 Yeah it sucks that life always seem to go that way. 😔
My dad passed away 7 years to the day 😢there are so many things I wish I could say to him
Nah fr, Miles and Jeff's relationship is like 1:1 me and my dad's. Like I really wanna be closer, but we're just so different that it can be hard to connect sometimes, but at the end of the day we always got each other.
And then his dad without missing a beat pauses what he's doing and take scare of his son.
This is the single best portrayal of anxiety I have ever seen in media. It starts off small, you spend an hour just spacing out, staring at a spot on the floor, you crawl into bed, end up a crying mess while not knowing why, then finally talking to someone. Fantastic job.
Agreed. I also liked the portrayal in Puss in Boots the last wish
Tbh it's kinda like sleep paralysis seeing shadow random thing standing is kinda scary and creepy tbh
Or in my case. Just having it brushed off.
Jesus can cure it and help you
He will fulfill you more than anything in this world, I speak from experience (from when i did Romans 10:9-13), he loves you and wants to be in a meaningful (not romantic) relationship with you. :)

If you want proof that Jesus and the Bible are true look a documentary called “Ron Wyatt discoveries 2022” on UA-cam and a UA-cam channel called Expedition Bible. They both examine archeological sites and discoveries that prove the Bible, and even reference secular sources. (Just don’t convert to 7th day Adventism after watching the documentary) And lastly if you don’t know the gospel and want to be saved search up “abc’s of Salvation Teenmissions” on Google and it should be the first or second result. When you click on it read the whole thing, and do what it says and have faith in Jesus while you are doing it, do not doubt, and if it is hard for you to do what it says, ask Jesus to help you, have faith that he will, and *he will.*
God Bless :)

OK but for real? Jeff is such a well written father here.
Doesn't force his son to join in for movies despite putting on a very notable amount of effort for the two of them, cause he can see his son clearly wants space.

Honestly that's a freaky detail because I've never known the Spider Sense to raise a false alarm so it really speaks to the level of panic he's feeling in that moment.
As an anxious person since childhood, this whole clip was such a spot-on depiction of how it can feel at its worst. So well done
Jeff listening to Miles' frustrations without a question and making time for a stroll is so wholesome to see.
Miles’s father cares for him.

@@gianna526same. My dad has been for years, I would kill for this 😢
@@KikiKiki-le9qe yep, I'm in the car with my dad right now and I'm just like... Damn I wish he'd ask me how I was or give half a crap about my existence!
I love how they conveyed the idea of him having a panic attack without being completely straightforward. All his thoughts building up and him recalling the events of the day (which is normally a trigger), feeling like he can' t move, the sleep paralysis creature pushing down on his chest (like when your chest tightens and you can't breath), the swift swaying motions? The colours? The music?. This is amazing.
One of the reasons Miles is my favorite superhero is because he's portrayed as such a normal person rather than just a super strong superhero with no emotions (other than grief cause name a superhero that doesn't lose someone lol). You never see a representation of anxiety in a superhero that's as real as this, a long with his feeling of not fitting in in the movies, and his simple wish to not have to meet everyone's expectations.
That just who spiderman is.down to earth
that's basically every spiderman
Literally spider-man, home slice
Si, eso es lo que Spider-Man significa
I know everyone is saying "That is just Spider-Man", but really I kinda feel "That is just Marvel".
Marvel has always been written from the standpoint of "Person first, Hero second", trying to show that all of their heroes have actual lives, things that they are responsible for outside of their "Hero Job" and that usually being a hero hurts their "real life".
On a serious note: That depiction of anxiety where he put on the headphones only to find things got *even worse* was the most pitch-perfect thing I've seen in years. I've had anxiety for way longer than I've had it diagnosed, and while headphones can help when there's too much noise, it won't help when it's *coming from inside the house.* It can make you feel so *powerless* , but Miles made the right call here.
On a less serious note: _I wonder if Spiders-Man will show up in Spider-Verse 3?_
Spider's-Man
Why do u put so much bold and italics ur doin too much
Shit that would be horrifying
THIS!!!! I love to use music as a way to calm me down when I'm feeling anxious but sometimes with headphones, it can feel overly stimulating that I just need to take them off. Genius depiction!
When I start feeling anxious like this I exercise really hard until I'm soo exhausted that my mind can't fight against me anymore
I don't understand how the team behind spiderverse is just incapable of making anything bad. Seriously some of the most talented people alive

I like the way his anxiety is depicted by his spider-sense pulling a false alarm.
Best part of this whole short for me as far as depicting anxiety. What an amazing way to portray that using spider-man
It's saying "The call is coming from INSIDE THE HOUSE!!"
And it's crazy because it's like we do have somewhat of a Spidey-sense that tricks us, too. We don't notice everything, but we get those gut feelings and most of the time, it plays us. Or is that just me?
as someone with anxiety, this was a perfect way to portray it!
How can you tell what the spider sense is like saying
Love how anxiety is being talked about nowadays because it wasn’t when I was a kid. It feels better to know you’re not the only one that lives with this nightmare that never completely goes away.
Straight facts
there's anxiety and then there's GAD (general anxiety disorder) which is basically chronic anxiety that affects your everyday life. there is help out there. don't be afraid to reach out to a professional though, even if you don't think it's that bad. there is hope.
They been talking about it…
it adds one more thing to relate to because he's literally every single teenager
I'm in my 30s, you must be much older, cause anxiety was talked about when I was a kid

Anyone who has suffered from sleep paralysis knows that this is a great representation of stress and anxiety from everyday life can affect anyone to the sleep paralysis state. Being so tired but not knowing if you’re awake or asleep and unable to move seeing a silhouette press down on your chest and your can’t speak or do anything about it, captured it perfectly there. Good job Sony 👏

Try to take long breaths and face what you are seeing , helped me , maybe you also
Fr i still suffer from sleep paralysis really relatable
Miles: "I'll never step on another spider again, I promise!"
Spider: "are u sure abt that"
Indeed
I really like how they interpretated things like mental health and anxiety and stuff. The fact that Miles' stress between being a hero for the people while also trying to live as a normal kid and stuff is really getting to him, starts making him see things that aren't actually there. The sleep-paralysis demon thing was also done great! Just miles in a room staring at a wall, but a silhouette of himself just staring back at him, that's scary as hell!
i love how it delves into the mental/psychological effect stress can have on people. this shows awareness for those struggling with mental health and anxiety, this is how it feels.
in one of my own stories this is a major theme. Like its a team of magical girls and not a true deconstruction as their being normal heroes and the like but under the surface theres all these demons they are fighting andtheleader most of all but shes trying to be the rock for her team while she herself spirals deeper and deeper into a bad place
Jesus can cure it.

@@ImTooOldForThisNonsense I may have been paraphrasing out of not remembering his actual words but on reflecting and revisiting his actual quoted words, he says that adults would want to watch something for them which heavily implies he thinks adults are naturally inclined towards live action film.
And I'm not really sure what you're referring to with plastic trophies, I was just using Chapek as a notorious example of people _still_ saying animation is just for kids or other similar sentiments. It definitely is getting better and it is a dying sentiment but there are still plenty of people prepared to dismiss a lot of good stories just because the medium in which they're being told is animation.

Man, I love that they made this. It really brings Miles responsibilities and struggles to life, showing why he yearns to associate with other Spider people. It perfectly segways into ATSV

this is so simple yet so touching. they did a good job at making anxiety not seem like this "quirky" or "fun" thing. and I mean under all that the kid is just a teenager, and being one alone isn't easy, let alone being a superhero.
I love how this puts into perspective not only how much of a psychological burden being Spider-Man and having all that responsibility while needing to keep it all secret and bottled up really is, but also the pain he felt in Across the Spider-Verse when he found out his friends, in his eyes the only people in literally all the universes he feels he can talk to, all abandoned him. He puts his life on the line every single day while trying to balance his every day life and keep his family safe by emotionally pushing them away and keeping secrets, then he finally gets to meet all the people he thought he could rely on and trust again and finds out they chose not to visit him for years.

It’s actually heartwarming to see miles’ father support him when he’s down.
I absolutely love how they showed all the ways Superhero-ing would mess with his life. Seeing him initially fight back and then lose as a core part of himself is turned on against him was great. And seeing him choose to get help as limited as it could be was a great way to end it. Was so glad this wasn't a rehash of his ITSV trauma and a accumulation of his own life's problems
yeah imagine being called "Unresponsible" but you're actually responsible for saving the city or being called "selfish" even though you risk your life saving people all day. Being a hero definitely comes with trauma but you got to push through and not give up
1:30 Dad outsmart his spider sense and got him good is pretty hilarious.
I was thinking it either got mixed up by the horror movie, or that he couldn’t react to it since he was at home, whether that he because he’s in a safe place or just out of caution in case someone’s around.

Words cannot express how big of an impact this movie series has had on me. I didn’t know this short existed until today & it still had me choked up at the end. I just wanted to hold Miles & tell him everything will be OKay. Superheroes have a ton of pressure on their shoulders constantly. Miles especially because of him being so young & in school. There’s so much pressure ahead of him to be as good as the older heroes with more experience plus getting good grades. Miles has a special place in my heart & it’s good to see he can confide in his dad even without telling him about his secret life
I feel you.
One thing I love about Miles in comics is ever since he got put in the 616 universe and got both his parents back, writers have been more willing to get vulnerable with the character. And he always has a support system to go to in his parents and Peter (especially once his parents learned about him being Spider-Man). It's great to read when he starts feeling overwhelmed with everything and can call his parents for support or is willing to ask other heroes to pick up the slack so he can take a breather.
NO SPOILERS !!!
I know everyone was memeing about this depicting a panic/anxiety attack because it became the "popular" thing to do (referring to movies covering the subject). But this really was a great depiction of them. The feeling of weight on your chest, like you're backed into a corner, your mind going 1,000mph - it's all captured so well.

Because I watched it 2 times In theaters, one time being 1st day 1st show, I didn't see this
ooooooo thanks for telling us man, good to know
Miles: Who’s There?
@tbg-brawlstars
In across the spider verse miles talks to the spot (I think) and says “I had a dream about shooting webs out of his but” and @Jonathan_Collins thinks this is his dream about that line of dialogue.
@@tbg-brawlstars Do you not know what a film festival is?
Love how the spider and the dad are exclusively in this short knowing they'll play an important role in the third film.
Spider-man: Breathes
Writers: And I took that personally.
I feel like this short film must resonate for a lot of people with anxiety.
Although there are great parents doing their best to push you to succeed they don’t know the whole story, and how much stuff you have in your life going on that isn’t just school.
This felt like a mix of Sleep Paralysis and Panic Attack. Sleep Paralysis is where you see a monster in your "dream" and you know you can't do anything at all, having absolutely no strength, and having like a whole planet smashed onto your chest. Its a really good short film that sends the message about how sometimes its fine to ask for help, and sometimes we have to do better to offer help to those who might need it
Sleep paralysis is when your body is still in a sleep state while your mind is awake. The reason you can’t move is because your body restricts motor function while you’re sleeping to stop you from moving around as you dream.
The “demon” comes from the chemicals in your brain that would normally let you dream being used while you’re awake, causing a hallucination. The often frightful nature is just a side effect of the fear and unease that comes from not being able to move.
no shit, dawg, just enjoy shit without analyzing it.
My exact thoughts while watching this short film!!!
@@donda3545 Bold of you to assume I didn’t enjoy while analysing it.
@@Rebecca_George I guess you could say that at the start was him witnessing it as a human. Which further explains why it just looks like Miles. Overtime as he moves more and more freely, especially the fact he climbs and uses his power, his demon starts to turn as the Spider. 2 Conflicting demons. Him facing as Miles, and the other facing as Spider-Man. Maybe that explains how he’s slowly able to move freely during the “sleep paralysis”
I like how you guys depicted sleep paralysis, the LED strobe-light eyes on the sleep paralysis dude was EXACTLY how I have been seeing them for years and no one ever seemed to echo that.
What exactly is this? Is this part three or a prequel of some sort? I don't know wtf is going on.
feels like a trailer to the last sequel we’re gonna get@@Onepieceistheworstanime
(Your user is so big it’s breaking my YTB’s technical ability to comment 😂)
So you’ve never seen haunting of bly manor. That’s okay. But, it’s there too
it's in-between the 2 movies. Just as a character depth thing/ something to build hype for the last movie.@@Onepieceistheworstanime
@@OnepieceistheworstanimeIt's just meant to be a mental health awareness promo. It shows us how much Miles struggled to balance his double life (sometime after the first film), how much it was affecting him mentally to shoulder this much responsibility.
This short film is awesome to see, not just having Miles overcome his own mental health trauma and responsibility, but to talk about his own personal problems, which I figured that The Spider Within's story has already foreshadowing the plot for Beyond the Spider-Verse, it would focus on Miles and Gwen, with the latter having to overcome her anxiety and inner demons to find him and save everyone and dimensions they tried to protect to make a difference.
Nice to see Miles finally throw in a pinch of NYC slang with the “I’m buggin'”
Seeing movies dig this deep into characters is one of the most inspiring things they can do. True art🕷️
I ATE CAT
@@virus.zwho’s cat?
@@virus.z you make me wanna cry. That's (in my opinion) kinda cruel. But even so, i do respect your opinion
@@amethyst137_ I WILL EAT ANOTHER
What a deep, mature, and wholesome story. Jeff used to be a strict father, that until he loses things. He knows the pain of loss. Hearing Miles out of where he stands with life without being harsh to him tugged on my heartstrings.
Can't wait for beyond the spiderverse!
Only seeing this now but the anxiety miles is feeling is all to real. The shaking, the weight on his chest from the shadow person, the hallucinations of feeling things crawling on you and more. This is really well done and well executed.
I feel like Stan Lee would be proud of this; a short but sweet project on how, like all of us, even Spider-Man has something going on beneath the surface and I think the message of communication with a trusted figure over bottling it up is really important ❤
screw Stan Lee. He is a hack
1:27 OMG, his reflection in the mirror! Love little details like this.
I didn’t even notice
@@SLIMETHEKINGG there literally was bro lmao
What are we looking at?
Is this sarcasm? Wth you on about?
@@deltaechomusicnh555 Nah he meant like the reflection showed that spider thing
Seeing Miles under so much pressure and anxiety made me feel so bad + him coming out of his room to talk with his dad made me emotional 😭
Whoever made the idea of Miles' nightmare when he sees dark shadows of himself. Deserves an Oscar from giving us big goosebumps.
New version of miles to rizz up? 😏
It's true bro
you get oscars for acting
Yes lets make oscars even more of a joke than they already are. Great idea.
Its miles heartless (yes KH reference)
This and The Last Wish's portrayal of a panic attack was the best thing I have ever seen. As someone who struggles with chronic anxiety, seeing that level of accuracy is meaningful to me.
@PoorWorldwithoutgodbruh
That is what is so great about these scenes. It brings us in and we feel the emotion they are feeling. I felt that
@PoorWorldwithoutgodbuy it yourself poor boy
@@HelloImEnt chill dude, he’s probably still a kid, my god..
@@v1nceclone mejor, un golpe de realidad siempre es bueno
I kinda hope this becomes a part of Miles as a character, Comic Miles has been dealing with anxiety and panic attacks and seeing him overcome it represented in more media would be amazing
oh god, no pls no
Wasn't the same thing that happened with Toby Peter McGuire?
Where he was dealing with a lot of anxiety and depression that he couldn't shoot web from his wrists anymore?
Because that's what this whole scenario reminds me of.
@@Drackflame951movie is so good
It makes sense he suffers sleeping paralyzis and his "demon" is himself.
wasnt this a major plotpoint in the first film or am i misremembering
My god man, the paralysis demon being nothing but a black silhouette descending straight down with its hand outstretched is so accurate. That is how my first experience with sleep paralysis went down
I love how supportive and kind of a father Jeff is. Plans out time to hang out with Miles, gives Miles space when he needs it, and ready to listen when Miles needs to talk. It's so sweet to see.
Also love the way Miles' anxiety is potrayed, like how his spider sense goes off even when there's no threat, simply due to how stressed out he's feeling. Really well done.
Spider sense going off with anxiety is something I never imagined before, but it fits so well when portrayed here
@@steveishere8808 This also happens in Miles's comics.
the way this just proved that miles dad survives and he gets home
@@Jordaniscooldude this takes place between spider-verse 1 and 2
@@Jordaniscooldude This is set before Across The Spider-Verse
This is the greatest series of Movies Sony has ever produced. Keep the Spider-Verse going.
Beyond the spiderverse is gonna be hype
@@JediLegend_1miles will save his father
@@gleove1 I hope so...for Jeff's sake.
Its very rare that we see these types of themes addressed in comic book movies anymore, mostly because everyone knows everyones secret identity and theres no need to live a double life since its all merged into one. Im glad sony made this, its good for kids to see that their heroes struggle just like them and itll help get them through it
I love the little details in this, like the sleep paralisis demon being reflected in the mirror instead of Miles at 1:26, the spider pork figure in the bookcase at 2:34, the fact that the sleep paralysis demon beeing practicaly identical to miles representing the bad part of beeing an spider-man and more stuff that I shure didn't notice!
At first Miles didn’t want to talk to his dad about his anxiety and feelings of being overwhelmed, he tried to cope with it alone in his room with his headphones. When he realized he couldn’t cope with it alone he decided to speak to someone about it, his father. It is always important to vent your emotions and feelings with other people so you feel better. Holding it in will do more damage than good in the long run. Amazing short film ❤️
god, the sleepwalkin' (well, crawlin' in his case), sleep paralyze, the shadow man nightmare, the short breath, the chest pressure that makes u unable to breathe properly, every moment of this short movie is just a great depiction of stress and panic attack
GOD DAMN MAKE A SPIDERVERSE SERIES ALREADY!!!
i agree
agreed
A series with this animation quality wouldn't work at all lmao
We'd either get one episode per 6 months or the quality would decrease drastically
finally some characters who can accurately display what its like to be a kid nowadays, i like peter alot obviously hes my favorite spiderman and favorite character ever but miles is just so much more relatable, society sucks today, school is hard, people are hard, everything is hard, and miles characters represents anxiety, stress, someone low on sleep, it feels accurate
Miles is better written than peter ever was in film.
even im hard sometimes, it sucks
Nuh uh ☝
Have to put your faith in Jesus our saviour.
@SpiritOfWisdom11 the thing I would say to your viewpoint is that while this is a depiction of a panic attack, it's also an accurate representation of anxiety attacks for a lot of people. So while you may not agree with the portrayal or symbolism, that doesn't stop the people who deal with in real life from dealing with it and experiencing what they do. For a lot of people, accurate representation helps them feel less isolated. Visuals like this, while you may believe them to be detrimental, seem to have a positive effect on people.
I think this is a really good way of showing how actually hard it is mentally to be a superhero and not having anyone to help out or talk about it
His spider sense was white, instead of BLUE/RED nor Purple
His inner dreams were confirming that he was loosing his confidence & braveness with his spider powers and being bad at school too. So if it’s another variant Miles, I could believe it but I really loved this short film!!
The city also looks like from another dimension, it doesn't seems like the Miles we know
You could be right, Miles' mother wasn't in this short at all. And in that other universe at the end of the second film, it was Miles' dad that wasn't around. This is definitely building up to something big in the next movie.
@@kenswordsshe was in the scenes where he has inner thoughts about his parents telling him he could be better
@@kenswordspretty sure that’s just a collab project with Kevin Love Fund and nothing else
This is another dimension because Jefferson is alive here and Miles is still Spider Man in this universe
The feeling of spiders crawling all over really sold it to me, the team behind this series never fails to amaze me. And I love that when Miles reaches out, his dad takes it. Especially fathers in film tend to be closed off towards their kid, so this with all the little details and jumpscares, is AMAZING.
I hope people who are suffering through things like this get the help they need and if you are one of those people reading this remember to take time and talk to ones you love about your feelings
Hello
🙏🏾🙏🏾 thanks for that
Thanks buddy
YALL MAKE THE BEST MOVIES BRO
like honestly the portrayal of anxiety and mixing a superhero movie with real life situations and emotions that are so well thought out and shown is pure wonders
I like how he sensed Jeff but still acted surprised to sell it. It contrasts how he's hiding stuff from him in the beginning of the short and then opens up to him at the end.
I thought he was actually scared. PTSD from being Spiderman has him on edge.
5:55 - "Well, one girl" ❤
He is talking about gwen aaa
@@natt3965 They r so Meant to be with each other ❤
Gwen❤
Gwanda!
At 5:04, u can see the drawing of Gwen that miles is working on. Plus let’s not forget that Gwen also hasn’t stopped thinking about miles by keeping her haircut and the photo of them in her drum set.
