In this film, the main character discovers sunglasses that reveal the way the world truly is. When the character has the sunglasses off the world looks "normal," but when he has the sunglasses on the world is surrounded by short phrases that show most things in the world are ran by money and manipulation. The film uses mise en scene to distinguish the opposing views. Specifically, the "normal" world is full of color, while the world that reveals the truth appears dull as it is in black and white. The opposition in this film functions to clearly explain ideas. The opposing views clearly show the idea that the normal world is not reality and most things in the world have hidden meanings used to manipulate humans.
In this film, two Spider-Mans (Peter and Miles) are fighting against a villain (Doc Ock). As they continue to escape Doc Ock and her team, they unexpectedly receive help from Gwen or Spider-Woman. Mise en scene is used to illustrate the contrast between the characters. For example, in the beginning of the scene, both Spider-Mans are wearing the same outfit. This shows that they are on the same team. In contrast the villain, Doc Ock is wearing different colors and an entirely different outfit. The other villains in the scene are wearing all white. Gwen is also wearing all white, but once she saves Peter and Miles, her costume reveals a pattern underneath that is like both Spider-Mans' costumes. This reveals that she is on their team. The opposition in this film functions to create identifiable character types. Through costume, colors, and language we learn who is a hero and who is a villain.
