    Spider-Man: No Way Home. Mixing the different versions of the same character from different adaptations was a really cool, modern idea I don’t think could have been done without our Cinematic Universe/Superhero boom in recent years. I can’t think of an example of that from the past. There’s no James Bond team up movie or Hannibal Lecterverse or anything like that.

    Unfortunately, I think it’s a really boring trick to see a second time, and now we’re going to have to see the same idea repeated in every superhero movie for years to come.

      I think they could have built up to it 20 years ago, it’s just no one took the time to make movies, then establish the multiverse. Probably couldn’t happen with James Bond because it’s based too much in reality, but a fantasy franchise could have easily pulled off a multiverse movie.
