I would watch Morbius over the Doctor Strange sequel any day of the week, and I love Sam Raimi. The MCU deserves its reckoning, even though I thought The Marvels was fine-ish, too. Outside of the first Guardians I was getting tired of the MCU all the way back with Iron Man 2.

As for Madame Web... I might use it to justify my Alamo Drafthouse Season Pass subscription, but ehhhhhhhhh

Dr strange 2 rules. It’s stupid as hell and there’s a lot of Raimisims and it shits on wandavision which stunk

It's already spawned more memes than Morbius and it hasn't even released

All the memes are just reheated Morbius ones like it’ll make webilliob dollars or whatever

The only reason they needed to do the multiverse was to get tobey and Andrew back. Who cares now.

Wolverine is a bonus but that’s honestly cool bc of jackman and Reynolds friendships.

With all this talk of Madame Web being the superhero genre's version of Cats 2019 I have only one question:

Is there also a Butthole Cut?

(Release the Cats 2019 Butthole Cut, you cowards!!!)

Everyone who made it is a butthole

Also I really cant believe the character’s last name is Web. Like, not even a first name where they could explain the coincidence away. It’s a last name. How did this pass the supervision of all the creatives and producers.

Remind yourself who directed the Garfield movies

It got a same day HBO Max release iirc which probably hurt it a fair bit at the box office.

No way. Black widow had the same thing and made a blackbillion widollars. Dune is a complete failure and flop in every way.

It’s not sexist when it’s something that actually happened. Both Johnson and Sweeny tagged marvel studios excitedly sharing the announcement of being in it.

Could’ve been a mistake of the tagging but still. It’s not something invented from the ether

well why not posted:

the idea that the cast did not do their due diligence about this not being MCU is a joke. it’s ridiculous to think that someone in the movies is less au fait than the children who watch these things

It’s really not. Lots of actors don’t give a poo poo about nerd stuff and show up to do their work and then go home.

I remember hearing a story from Darren Lynn boseman on a podcast when he directed spiral where he talked working with Sam Jackson. Jackson doesn’t meet with the director until he walks on set. He doesn’t sit and have convos about anything other than “tell me what you want to do”

Apparently he Jackson got mad at him for coming into his trailer before he showed up on set.

Maybe this isn’t true or maybe it’s because DLB stinks but still.

A lot of actors are dumb dude. Not all of them are nerdy enough to care about anything other than their job. And agents are also dumb, not understanding what is a good idea for their client.

Any person with a brain would know to not take a job making a movie of a d list superhero character from the studio who made Morbius. But yet here we are.

Venom worked because Venom is a pretty popular character and Tom Hardy had passion to do it. He didn’t show up to get a paycheck.

Honestly thinking on it probably no one promised anything except that it’s a marvel movie.

A lot of people don’t know the different licenses if they’re not plugged in. So these people get a gig working on a marvel movie…they’re gonna think they’re making a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie.

It’s why Matt smith called Karen Gillen because he thought this poo poo was all the same and not something wildly different

Well with Kingo idk that movie just didn’t work. But Yelena of Black Widow went on to be a fan favorite character and I think some of the other cast members are showing up in thunderbolts. So there’s a pretty big difference there

Shes a popular MCU character. She’s been in one of the spin of shows and is going to lead the thunderbolts

That’s a pretty good career move for an already cool and popular actor.

Venom wasn't decent because of Care Levels,

Yes it was. If you cast anyone else in that movie it would be pretty mediocre. But Hardy’s enthusiasm for his weird take on this character elevated it to something more fun and unique than your standard superhero thing.

Black Adam didn’t stink because the rock cared or didn’t care. It’s because the rock keeps hiring really lame filmmakers to make his stuff. He hasn’t made a good movie starring himself since the rundown. (Pain and gain doesn’t count because he’s not the main main star but he did own in it and it is great. )

Choices because they cared

I do not understand what’s to argue about saying people cared about venom which lead to their choices that made the film interesting. What made it good was the fact that Hardy went for it and got weird with his choices and fought for those choices, because he cared.

What’s the problem with saying cared lol

Niel breen is a bad example because he owns. His art is stupid and weird and unique. No one makes anything like him


But I think she had a bad agent who said this gig would do well for her career. And what happened is the studio at some point cared more about making money and decided to committee the hell out of it during production which made the film miserable to make.
