WHAT AN ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE, STYLIZED, AND CONVOLUTED COMIC BOOK DROP! Spider-Noir Episodes 1-3 Reaction & Breakdown with John Humphrey, Jon Maturan, and Andrew Gordon! Spider-Noir Full Series Uncut Watch Along: https://www.patreon.com/thereelrejects - Check out the DC Studios: Showcase Podcast HERE https://app.magellan.ai/listen_links/7wrn94 - Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ In this video premiere review and reaction, we break down the incredible performances of the main ensemble cast, featuring Nicolas Cage (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Longlegs) delivering an incredibly layered performance as the weary, cynical private eye Ben Reilly, Lamorne Morris (New Girl, Fargo) bringing massive emotional weight as the intrepid Daily Bugle reporter Robbie Robertson, and Brendan Gleeson (The Banshees of Inisherin, Braveheart) commanding the screen with pure gravitas as the ruthless mob boss Silvermane. Our hosts react to major highlights like the stunning opening POV sequence that beautifully echoes classic wall-crawling cinema, the intense close call where a targeted gas explosion goes off for a three-dollar job, and the absolute comedy of Ben’s internal struggles with his bad back. We also dissect the incredible suspense of the apartment sequence where Ben is forced to hide out in a tight closet while Flint Marko and Winston search the room, leading to a shocking trail of wet blood on the ceiling, before unpacking Silvermane's counterfeit web where he marks his bills to hunt down a rat, setting up a massive graveyard cliffhanger that leaves our hosts completely floored. We evaluate the incredible film-noir language, character arcs, and technical execution that make this series an absolute masterpiece, so drop your thoughts in the comments below! #SpiderNoir #SpiderManNoir #SpiderNoirPremiere #ReelRejects #NicolasCage #LamorneMorris #BrendanGleeson #Silvermane #Sandman #Tombstone #MarvelNoir #SpiderVerse #TVReaction #WatchAlong #FirstTimeWatching #FilmNoir #seriespremiere SPIDER-NOIR EPISODE 1-3 (B&W) REACTION: https://youtu.be/QbIGi2iRc1I SPIDER-NOIR EPISODE 4-6 (B&W) REACTION:https://youtu.be/-G5NiRocHR8 IRON MAN MOVIE REACTION (ROAD TO DOOMSDAY): https://youtu.be/4eNvK8Ga75M IRON MAN 2 MOVIE REACTION (ROAD TO DOOMSDAY): https://youtu.be/PwZ9INFAO8I 0:00 Checking In! 02:26 Spider-Noir 1x1 28:43 Spider-Noir 1x2 57:17 DC Showcase Podcast 59:32 Spider-Noir 1x3 01:29:04 Spider-Noir season 1 review Follow *Andrew Gordon* https://www.youtube.com/@MovieSource https://www.instagram.com/agor711/?hl=en https://twitter.com/Agor711 Follow *Jon Maturan* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonmaturan/?hl=en Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Co-Editor: John Humphrey Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Movie Talk (News, Spoiler Reviews, & Film Rumors!!!): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw8fPQ-21NVSb2IOwIiHbVt8 Youtube Video Reactions & Discussions: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_qwcPsN_vOxXC6IVzrOQYG Sketches & Short Films: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_zWuTRfBOUP3aYyIYRzc2y

It's crazy this series deserves a second season. Nicolas Cage hit the jackpot with Spider-Noir. He understands the character so well and able to blend his love of cinema with superhero storytelling. The black webbing when watching it in Black and White is spectacular and Brendan Gleeson as Silvermane is perfectly cast where he brings that Al Capone quality to the Irish mob boss and wanting to maintain his power status is the most important thing for him.

Honestly, I’m glad that the color version of the show lives up to the same quality as the black-and-white version.

Honestly the only show where i had to run back the intro a couple times because it's so good🔥 Really like how both color and black and white look fantastic. Even during the depression they make it bright and so vibrant, the colors, the camera work is so satisfying
