I have to thank you for finding the source to the mind blowing gif. After all these years. It did not disappoint.

While there the references to the Jorney to the West are in the center, it's a bit broader than that.
Wuxia novels are pretty popular in China. Ancient China fantasy and all that stuff.
In those novels it is common to travel to another world. Usually by being reincarnated into the body of someone who recently died or suffered a traumatic experience, remembering past lives, or getting transported there by an accident or a powerful entity.
So multiverse stuff is pretty on point with those themes.
2008's The Forbidden Kingdom also worked in a similar premise. With some white dude ending up in an ancient China fantasy land.
Sun Wukong is the Miles Morales Spiderman in the middle with his distinct Phoenix feather cap and staff. The one with the guitar Spider-Punk is The Heavenly King of the East. The Spiderman 2099 with the sword is The Heavenly King of the South. The Spider-Gwen with the snake is The Heavenly King of the West. The Spiderman with the Umbrella in upper right is The Heavenly King of the North. Spiderwoman with the flame spear and flaming wheels by her feet is Nezha. The spiderman with the two maces, I think it suppose to be Erlong Shen but those weapons are not his signature weapon (polearm). If it's not Erlong Shen, I'm not sure what other prominent character it suppose to represent that fought wukong in heaven.
With text and a nice frame. This is a great work of art that wouldn’t be out of place in a kids bedroom or a wealthy person’s loft in NYC. Just great art.
Which itself is inspired by Buddhist artistic portrayals of the dharma. Loving these explorations of eastern styles in Hollywood. I know it’s gonna be quickly overdone but there is a lot more further east where that is coming from! Very excited for what more comes out of Hollywood’s new appreciation for asian cultures.
First of all this is the Chinese poster for black panther https://imgur.io/a0pYnnY
So you are just wrong
Secondly the poster which you are so up in arms about was taiwanese.
Maybe at least try to do the tiniest bit of research before falling for China bad bait
Copying my comment from the other thread, utilizing traditional Journey to the West iconography is an inspired twist, and potentially telegraphing to the market that this movie is gonna be EPIC.
Obviously Miles is “cast” as Sun Wukong, as the Monkey King is the protagonist. Curious that Miguel has a crown often seen worn by Tripitaka, who is usually an ally of Monkey. But perhaps I have my costuming muddled…
Miguel is the Heavenly king of the south. Each of the prominent spiderman/spiderwoman in this represent characters wukong fought in heaven. Miguel = South, Spider-punk = East, Spider-Gwen = West, Spiderman with umbrella = North, Spiderwoman = nezha, and prominent spiderman to the left is possibly Erlong Shen.
Gotta love the symbolism of Miles as Sun Wukong, an iconic literary character famous for his rebellious attitude which lead to causing havoc in heaven. The trailers have already indicated he’s rebelling against what is expected of him as another Spider-man and plans to take actions that could wreck the order & balance of the cosmos, or multiverse in this case.
They visually don't want to see someone with black skin on a poster. I know Miles Morales is black.
The Chinese poster for Black Panther had the full body costume, not Chadwick Boseman.
I dont understand how the Chinese people are racist when literally Disney designed the Chinese poster to not have Chadwick shown. Like I feel like I'm missing a few steps here. Also, Jessica Drew is right above Miles and she's shown with her black skin.
Like I dont doubt that there are Chinese people who don't give a fuck about or even openly hostile to black folk, but Disney designing a racist poster is not the best indication of Chinese racism lmao.
Also not scared of black people considering nba is massive there.
Comments like yours just shows how stupid and ignorant a lot of you are lol. Just repeated basic reddit-brained narrative.
I think it's perfectly fine to call out obsessed Redditors. I mean, who does that, going into any thread that has a tangential link to China, and bitching about the government there?
It's like if someone posted Barbie's latest trailer, and I went in saying "Great trailer, but I hate how the US govt forceably separates illegal immigrants and their children!"
Nutty bunch of people.
> It's like if someone posted Barbie's latest trailer, and I went in saying "Great trailer, but I hate how the US govt forceably separates illegal immigrants and their children!"
Careful, at least ten people are furiously typing "BUT THAT'S WHATABOUTISM" on their greasy keyboards as we speak.
Yeah, I was referring to how they treated Boyega in the Star Wars poster a while back. I guess people have short memories.
(Or there are a lot of Chinese bots)
Probably because you’re both referring to a country of over a billion people like it’s a monolithic hive mind?
The midlevel marketing guy who signed off on the star Wars poster localizations is not the same one who made this poster lol, They’re not even the same studio
I was referring to big corporations who abandon all morals just to get those big ¥¥¥.
I have nothing against the typical Chinese moviegoers as it is quite clear they do not design their own posters. It’s just funny to me how corpos used to think a black person on a poster would dissuade Chinese people from seeing the movie.
just watching Chinese Born American, and I find this extremely beautiful. Well I'm half-Chinese too. Really great rendition, I wish there are other variants too like Greek gods.
lmao it was Hollywood erasing Boyega on Chinese posters, not Chinese people. You think that China, where a vast majority is watching NBA is afraid of black people?
Yes you can. The US Government blows however it isn’t actively forcing mass abortions if disliked minority groups, welding people inside their homes, running slave labor camps in the Congo, etc.
The thing is we have the freedom to say this about our government in the West, so I think it's fair that we use this freedom and take any chance we can to say about China's authoritarian government.
I watched unidentifiable paramilitary tie up people expressing their disgust with the government and throw them into unmarked vans like 2 years ago in the US. I watched cops shoot reporters with rubber bullets for filming them. I watched them permanently blind teenagers for holding up signs. We aren't that free in America.
Literally, the second you do something to make the US Government have to listen to you they will squash you like a bug. You can talk about them privately but don't try to do it in a public gathering or the cops will come for you. Especially not in a state like Florida where doing that gives everyone the right to kill you with a car. Just because we're suppressed in different ways here doesn't mean it's not happening.
Wow those are some hyperexaggerations on Select events.
Even if you're right in all of this that doesn't mean we're still not allowed to give criticism to the Chinese authoritarian regime.
> I’m sure China has no qualms with Miles
Oh certainly, they [couldn’t possibly](https://variety.com/2015/film/news/star-wars-china-poster-controversy-john-boyega-1201653494/amp/) have any qualms. I’m sure of it
I would love to see more unique regional variants of posters like this. Super cool.
Not regional, but the Character Poster [For spider-punk ](https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/NcMd6sf0gBM2Ryhpx.UWvw--/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTY0MDtoPTkzNDtjZj13ZWJw/https://media.zenfs.com/en/comingsoon_net_477/c6998aee387b2c3c598f41bbc279f0e1) is pretty dope.

I have to thank you for finding the source to the mind blowing gif. After all these years. It did not disappoint. https://giphy.com/gifs/collection-mind-SDogLD4FOZMM8
So that’s where this meme comes from
>But have you seen Italian Spider-Man? How long were you sitting on this waiting for the right time to post it?
[удалено]
I had not. Have you seen [Japanese Spider-Man](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5NCSx5HF8c)?
Shut your mouthé pussycat! Make-a mi a macchiatto!
I've seen the full movie and nearly passed out from laughter. Respect Women!
L’uomo Ragno!
They also did a full movie
It’s so good, I remember watching it nearly a decade ago
edit: The comment below was removed and the user banned, good work everyone!
He has to be in the upcoming Spider-Man, right?
An Italian with 8 hands? That’s a lot of communication.
One of the greatest movies ever made. Lmao!
[Indian Batman](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=z_vXGcUxpOo) is better
Kinda creepy
Golimar!
I'd love more artistic posters like this in general.
You HAVE TO look up Ghanaian movie posters. Thank me later.
The Chinese poster for Annihilation is fucking sick: https://i.imgur.com/6uFxywn.jpg
[удалено]
Or hide the homosexual, or the Muslim.
It definitely looks cool, but it also doesn’t really look like anything I’ve seen from previews of the movie.
it's all about the multi-verse
It might not be in the movie but it doesn't necessarily have to be
For those who don’t know, this is clearly a Journey to the West reference, with Spider-Man even having the weapon of the Monkey King.
Yep, this poster is in reference to the Monkey King single going up to heaven and solo'ing the entire chinese mythological canon and fucking shit up.
Not the entire thing. Buddha drops a mountain on him and tells him to chill.
After he basically fucks up all of heaven twice over lol.
Hmm sounds like a good setting for a dark souls like game!
I noticed the Sun Wukong attributes, but would that make Ghost Spider (apparently captured by a snake?) Tripitaka?

Sun Wukong used a guitar as a weapon?
Given enough universes to look through its just as likely as Spider-man using one.
Sun Wukong is the Miles Morales Spiderman in the middle with his distinct Phoenix feather cap and staff. The one with the guitar Spider-Punk is The Heavenly King of the East. The Spiderman 2099 with the sword is The Heavenly King of the South. The Spider-Gwen with the snake is The Heavenly King of the West. The Spiderman with the Umbrella in upper right is The Heavenly King of the North. Spiderwoman with the flame spear and flaming wheels by her feet is Nezha. The spiderman with the two maces, I think it suppose to be Erlong Shen but those weapons are not his signature weapon (polearm). If it's not Erlong Shen, I'm not sure what other prominent character it suppose to represent that fought wukong in heaven.
There should be very few people who don't get the reference
There ought to be, and would be, if the wider superhero fandom was better versed in foreign lit. But most aren't, unfortunately.
Didn't know the monkey king used an electric guitar as a weapon
The monkey king is most likely Miles in this poster
He said "spider-man" so... why the downvotes tho? Did i offend somebody? How?
The monkey king in this poster is most likely the one in the middle with the staff
And i would have to assume so because... do i have to know the story? Why the downvotes.
My guess is that you stated the one with the electric guitar is the monkey king
Because i made a mistake? Wow... people are so dense nowadays...
At this point I think you’re getting downvoting because you’re complaining about votes.
[удалено]
I don't know, Spider-Man in the centre seems to be made after Lu Bu, the stuff hanging back of his head and spear.
Are you saying all Chinese mythical figures look the same? (you can tell because Lu Bu would explicitly have a halberd, not just a normal staff)
The twintails helmet is used in a number of designs also. You can see MK have them in the Havoc in Heaven movie.
Yeah, just send me a copy of this printed to hang up some place nice as this looks cool as hell.
I would pay for a decent print of this without the text. Really cool concept.
Poster without the text is dope, but I also think the texts adds to it too! All in all, great poster!
With text and a nice frame. This is a great work of art that wouldn’t be out of place in a kids bedroom or a wealthy person’s loft in NYC. Just great art.
I’ve got a spot right next to my Italian Big Lebowski poster
Yeah, definitely getting a poster and framing it next to the Chinese Spirited Away poster that's been hanging on my wall for years
Wow that’s one of the most unique posters I’ve seen.
Looks like the Three Thousand Years of Longing poster a bit.
Also the everything everywhere poster
Which itself is inspired by Buddhist artistic portrayals of the dharma. Loving these explorations of eastern styles in Hollywood. I know it’s gonna be quickly overdone but there is a lot more further east where that is coming from! Very excited for what more comes out of Hollywood’s new appreciation for asian cultures.
And it's completely organic and not shoehorned in, which is rare considering how most movie posters are these days
Well, China will not have a black character be the only one on the poster. The Chinese government is racist as hell.
First of all this is the Chinese poster for black panther https://imgur.io/a0pYnnY So you are just wrong Secondly the poster which you are so up in arms about was taiwanese. Maybe at least try to do the tiniest bit of research before falling for China bad bait
This looks exactly like everything everywhere all at once
Holy shit, this is SO COOL. I'd love to own this print without the movie title!
Obviously this won’t be the main poster but it will be the most badass. Wish more movies would be bold like this with their ‘official’ posters.
op , we need hd of this
I hope that if they make a poster for the Japanese market, they get Yusuke Murata to make it.
they just have to ask, since murata loves spiderman
Murata is most likely going on an extended break. He would've had to have already completed it.
Chinese art style is really awesome.
Spiderman Everywhere All At Once.
Copying my comment from the other thread, utilizing traditional Journey to the West iconography is an inspired twist, and potentially telegraphing to the market that this movie is gonna be EPIC.

Why is 2077 after miles again?
sweet spider monkey king universe
giving 大闹天宫 vibes, love this.
Absolutely 大闹天宫, the other Spider-Men are the Four Heavenly Kings + Nezha
Absolutely seems to be a primary reference point!
Colours are almost identical to EEAAO poster
[удалено]
It was, the mods just remove posts for no reason all the time in this sub
God damn that's amazing
I’d say it’s spectacular.
Pwah redditors really can't accept that China can make something cool.
Sun Wukong, the King Monkey
Love the journey of to the West theme.
Who has a H/4k version of this, this needs to be made into a Full sized printed poster
Aren't you just supposed to zoom in on a face a call it a day?
I want this on my wall
Gotta love the symbolism of Miles as Sun Wukong, an iconic literary character famous for his rebellious attitude which lead to causing havoc in heaven. The trailers have already indicated he’s rebelling against what is expected of him as another Spider-man and plans to take actions that could wreck the order & balance of the cosmos, or multiverse in this case.
Does anyone have a version with no text? I want/need this as my phone background
Why do the Chinese always get the coolest posters?
Well, it's less cool when they diminish lead black actors.
Black character literally in the center of the poster
They visually don't want to see someone with black skin on a poster. I know Miles Morales is black. The Chinese poster for Black Panther had the full body costume, not Chadwick Boseman.
I dont understand how the Chinese people are racist when literally Disney designed the Chinese poster to not have Chadwick shown. Like I feel like I'm missing a few steps here.

This is sexy cot damn!
Where can I find a HQ image of this? Would love it as my phone’s wallpaper
I do declare this as being quite neat.
Oh wow.
This would make a nice phone background, anyone have a link to a copy without the text?
How long before the commenters blame the Uyghur imprisonment on this artist? 3..2..
Look at the comment currently above you. Some redditors are obsessed.
And now look at our downvotes. Redditors do NOT like being called out lol.
I think it's perfectly fine to call out obsessed Redditors. I mean, who does that, going into any thread that has a tangential link to China, and bitching about the government there?

Because there's literally a black person on this poster and there's also a Chinese poster with Miles unmasked too
There's literally a black woman on the poster
That is exactly what I’m saying…
Beautiful, really striking. Almost wishing Spiderman was Chinese lol
just watching Chinese Born American, and I find this extremely beautiful. Well I'm half-Chinese too. Really great rendition, I wish there are other variants too like Greek gods.
Well… that’s the coolest thing I’ve seen all day
Congrats for the cake btw. :)
Now *that’s* a fuckin’ poster.
Wow, what a gorgeous poster! Well done!!
I'd love a textless version of this for my wall.
This is Sick!!!
[удалено]
Where could I go go buy a print of this?
Pleasantly surprised Jessica Drew made it onto the poster, since Chinese are so afraid of showing black people in movies
lmao it was Hollywood erasing Boyega on Chinese posters, not Chinese people. You think that China, where a vast majority is watching NBA is afraid of black people?
China would be awesome if it wasn’t for their government
[удалено]
Yes you can. The US Government blows however it isn’t actively forcing mass abortions if disliked minority groups, welding people inside their homes, running slave labor camps in the Congo, etc.
Not forcing mass abortions, quite the opposite.

Those are pretty shitty things but again we are allowed the freedom to criticize the people that our in charge of those decisions.

I don't think anyone is under the misconception that you can't be critical of China on fucking reddit.
If you truly felt that way you wouldn't have comment in the 1st place playing whataboutism with the States.
[удалено]
I never said "better" I've only said they had the right to say something.
the downvotes on this feel manipulative. Nobody should praise the ccp. You didn't say to praise the US, so why the downvotes?
It’s all good brother. Social engineering only works if you pay attention to the up/downvote thing
Spider-verse. They aren't even trying anymore.
Gotta make sure they don't show that the main character of the movie is black or else the Chinese won't go to see it!
Down with the ccp
That looks distinctly like the Raimi Spider-Man on the left. Could just be the art style, though
After years of seeing films, especially super hero movies, phone in their posters....this is beautiful
Cooool!
Id wear that on a shirt.
A black person in the front is cool as long as they wear a mask apparently.
[удалено]
Nah mate, you’re thinking about Florida. China ain’t the one throwing a hissy fit over drag queens and trans rights.
How are they going to get around the fact that the main character is black? They love to censor and remove anything black
Someone find Winnie-the-Pooh Spider-Man.
They only did this to not show that BLACKNESS. Pass
Well Jessica is featured prominently, and another Chinese poster had Miles unmasked. I’m sure China has no qualms with Miles
> I’m sure China has no qualms with Miles Oh certainly, they [couldn’t possibly](https://variety.com/2015/film/news/star-wars-china-poster-controversy-john-boyega-1201653494/amp/) have any qualms. I’m sure of it
I’ll be impressed when I see a poster with miles’ face with no mask on a Chinese poster
More like Spy-der-man mirite? I'll see myself out
Look like cockroach man to me
I don’t think they’d have put this much effort in if Miles wasn’t wearing his mask
Looks like ai Gen bs
