Spider-Noir on Amazon Prime is a take on the black and white Spider-Man from the comics and is played by Nicolas Cage, who also played a version of this character from Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse. This post WW1/prohibition/Great Depression era world sees Ben Reilly, a retired Spider-Man who has to find a new reason to be a hero, since the normal Spidey tragedy happens to him. This is a fairly true to the classic film noir stylings and Cage goes full Nick Cage and we absolutely loved it.0:00 - The Spider/Intro1:10 - Initial impressions6:00 - Noir has two definitions8:50 - A who’s who of character actors11:40 - The Spider of it all 18:00 - Some of yall don’t under the “noir” in Spider-Noir23:35 - It’s a good story53:30 - What we’vebeen watching/What’s next
