Latest Sci-Fi News: ‘Across the Spider-Verse’ proves a very crucial thing about Sony as Harrison Ford shuts down the Han Solo vs. Indiana Jones debate once and for all

The new 'Spider-Man' sequel delivers in all the important ways.

There are a lot of movies to look forward to in 2023. From Christopher Nolan’s new biopic to Denis Villeneuve’s Dune sequel, and Greta Gerwig’s Barbie, even Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City, this seems to be the year where cinema giants come to square off against one another. But one other movie, heralding from the inundated superhero genre, is finally here to give them all a run for their money.

Black Mirror‘s whole existence can be justified by its insistence to depict the future of mankind in a pessimistic light. The same is also true of the upcoming sixth season, which will take fans back to its bizarre world of sci-fi intrigue and absurdism. And if you won’t take our word for it, the producers have just released a trailer that seems to embrace all the weird technological advancements awaiting us in the near future.

Across the Spider-Verse is one of 2023’s best movies, but what does that say about Sony’s filmmaking future?

People nowadays approach superhero movies or television shows with an air of reluctance and nonchalance, but Across the Spider-Verse is finally here to prove to us all that you can make a great superhero flick if you put enough passion and originality into it. The sequel’s reviews seem to indicate another masterpiece awaiting you in theaters in two days, but what does that say about Sony? Well, if you were to ask us, the company should focus its efforts on animated films from here on out, as this is where they seem to shine the most.

And though we wouldn’t really hold our breaths over that possibility, it’s not an overstatement to suggest that the company might even be able to compete with Disney or Warner Bros. somewhere down the line if they stuck with this formula.

Harrison Ford can’t comprehend why fans would pit Indiana Jones against Han Solo

I don’t know what people expect to see from Harrison Ford after experiencing the sharper edge of his bitter humor over and over again. The man simply doesn’t care as much as you do about the characters he brings to life, so don’t flinch when he snaps back at you for asking him a nerdy question involving Han Solo or Indiana Jones. As an Esquire interviewer recently learned that the hard way, it’s even worse when you mention the two characters in the same sentence.

Oh well, this is just Harrison Ford being playful in his own way, and we can’t help but love him more for it.
