Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse

I finally got to see Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse just a few hours ago (I caught it as a rental), and I really enjoyed it very much. It was the perfect blend of comic book seriousness and humor, with just the right dash of silliness ("Do animals talk in this dimension? Cause I don't wanna freak anyone out..."). Despite the comedy, the movie still managed to be an enthralling Spider-Man adventure.

My favorite Spidey villain is Doctor Octopus, and I loved this new interpretation that was used in this film. Doc Ock was a great menace (along with the Kingpin) here. I think it's safe to say that this is my favorite Spider-Man movie, next to Spider-Man 2 (which had Doc Ock as the main villain, natch). I hope we get to see more of this Spider-Verse, especially more of Gwen Stacey, who rocked really hard here--maybe Gwen can be in her own movie, perhaps? Huh? Please?.
