It's a disaster

And it's a boring disaster so it won't even get Cats like "what the gently caress"

There will be no Skimbleshanks

The railway cat

It might!

Well, having now seen this tangled-up IP gossamer firsthand, we can say that Madame Web isn’t as bad as its somewhat botched promotional campaign might suggest. It is, in fact, way worse. A genuine Chernobyl-level disaster that seems to get exponentially more radioactive as it goes along, this detour to one of the dustier corners of Marvel’s content farm is a dead end from start to finish. It is the Cats: The Movie of superhero movies. Not a single decision seems of sound mind. Not a single performance feels in sync with the material. Not a single line reading feels as if it hasn’t somehow been magically Auto-Tuned to subtract emotion and/or inflection. The sole amazing factor of this Spider spinoff is that someone, somewhere signed off on actually releasing it.

Dads love Madame Web. "For some reason".

and a bit where Toxic plays on the radio and the DJ is like “this song’s gonna be huge!” - no poo poo, you idiot, it’s a new Britney song in 2003 [Toxic also wasn’t released as a single until 2004, but that’s the least of this movie’s problems]



Madame Web vindicated, 6 stations in Radio & Records' sample of 50 stations reported adding Toxic to their playlist in early December 2003, over a month ahead of being released as a single :v.

I'm confused about the ADR thing, I'm guessing its due to a rewrite, but what kind of rewrite would require you to re-do literally all of the villains dialogue but nobody elses?

Well maybe you have a James Bond movie in which the villain's plot revolves around release a virus, but the movie was set to release in April 2020, so you change it to be "nanobots" instead.

I don’t believe this is proof they thought they were going to be in the MCU, especially when you consider Marvel Entertainment (the company responsible for licensing Marvel properties out to other, non-Disney studios) doesn’t have an Instagram account.
That's not true? Did you post something vile on an @marvel post that got you blocked?
