When Oscar voters cast their ballots ahead of the 91st Academy Awards on Lady MoonFeb. 24, Disney wants them to remember Incredibles 2.
"For your consideration" ads and social media posts are a common sight in the run-up to the big show every year. But the typically dominant showing from Disney-Pixar productions is facing major competition in the universally well-received Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse.
And that movie's fans are internet-savvy, to say the least.

Check the replies to that tweet and you'll see a flood of GIFs from a moment in Spider-versewhen Peter Parker's Spidey sense goes off. No one got mad, really. It feels more like a "You really think that, huh? That's cute." kind of response.
Honestly, clicking through is the best way to take in the hilarious reaction to Disney's tweet. It's quite something to scroll down through the replies and see the same GIF again and again. Spider-verse fandom is united in their collective "wtf lolno Disney" response.
Here's one.

The wry response -- which feels more like a playful goof than some kind of knock on Pixar or Incredibles 2(which is wonderful) -- went big. Even brands started to get in on the fun.

Or if you prefer, here's a video that sums up the experience quite well:

Look, this is the internet. It's rare to see people agree on anything. So when you open up a tweet and find a crush of social media users joining hands in an act of solidarity, that feels like an occasion worth marking.
Good luck to the talented teams behind Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verseAND Incredibles 2at the Academy Awards.
