Sonys contract for Spider-Man states that they have to make a movie every 5 years and 9 months to keep the rights to Spider-Man. That’s probably the only reason they made this movie. If some executive actually thought that people would wanna see a movie about a forgettable side character in the Spider-Man comics, then they are beyond brain dead and should be fired

I know fans wanted the films to be more "comic accurate," but they didn't mean they should adopt the same business practices that make the comics unreadable to anyone who isn't a nerd with an insane amount of time and patience to wade through sludge just to find a gold nugget.

A Public Domain Spider-Man horror Movie could work and have potential, if done correctly. Have the film be about Peter who has recently became Spider-Man succumbing to the radioactive Spider bite and becomes a Man Spider creature (like in the Comics and 90’s series). And then a while later loses control and goes a massacre, killing anyone nearby, and possibly taking out some of his rouge’s gallery, that would be interesting. But what am I going to expect😒 they’re most likely going to pay a nearby middle aged man to dress in a small Spider-Man halloween costume and then film it with a phone😂

I don't know anything about the original character, but turning a paralyzed, blind old lady into a 30 yo able-bodied woman is a huge shame. I admit I'm not a movie buff, but the only movie with a disabled hero protagonist I can remember off the top of my head is Daredevil. And I don't recall any old lady heroine protag. I'm sure the actress has done a great job with what she was given, but the og Madame Web sounds and looks a lot cooler.

A Final Destination style movie with an elderly paraplegic woman at the center giving ominous and cryptic warnings to people could be fun. You could even make it an anthology movie to introduce characters who don't have the charisma to be the villain of a mainline Spiderman film.

"Bad Movie Fatigue" really needs to replace "Superhero Fatigue" as the go-to phrase of choice. Nobody wants to watch a bad movie, regardless of the genre. The problem with the "Sony Spider-Verse" is whoever they put in-charge of it clearly doesn't care about the source material. Even without Spider-Man, Sony still has some decent characters that they have access to that could be turned into good films IF they get people to work on them that care about the characters.

American here, ticket prices go upwards of 13 bucks USD. Comparatively cheap compared to some other countries, but then again, any money spent on this movie is money well wasted.

Being an American, next to everything here is pretty exorbitant, including ticket prices. But then again, any money spent on this movie is money well wasted.

I largely agree with the sentiment that this is a “bad movie” problem more than it is a “superhero fatigue” problem. I’ve recently been re-watching the Infinity Saga over the last year as part of a review podcast, and many of the mediocre films from that saga at least have solid scripts and excellent production quality-even if there isn’t much emotional impact. What we are seeing in a large chunk of the last several years are corporate decisions trying to replicate lightning in a bottle when the secret is just to make a good freaking movie. Even if commercially it fails after that, you at least have a movie that is guaranteed in some way to be a cult classic, and you can make some of that film’s budget back down the road in distribution and media sales.

I'm personally glad Sony is doing its own thing in the corner because atleast it gives me relief knowing the MCU isn't doing as bad as that.

Crazy how Sony could save money only relying on spiderverse movies, yet they choose to burn money with Morbius, Venus and now Madame Web

They are in the same boat as DC with trying to make Marvel styled movies.... DC does great when they make Joker, The Batman, Dark kNight(Trilogy); Dark tone, realism, Character development and Arcs.... Sony has a better chance at creating long lasting memories with audiences by doing the Spiderverse styled art with real life character arcs, motivations and experiences...

I see. It is unreasonable of me to expect movies throwing the equivalent of a small country's GDP at a project to actually care about telling a good story. Silly me.

Sony literally just needs to cast a second Spider-Man they can use in their movies. If they really don’t want to use Peter Parker because of Tom Holand, then they need to introduce a live action version of Miles Morales and use him.

The credit scene hot potato game with venom between studios is genuinely hilarious

Here's what I don't get: if it's all about holding onto IP rights, why not save money by cutting the 150m to 50m and giving it to a promising director with a passion? If it flops, you saved money. If it's a hit, you're better off than where you're at now. Since these movies are essentially write-offs for the time being, why bother with a committee? It doesn't make any sense.

You know you are in serious trouble when the best idea you can come up with for your Spider-Man franchise is to make Spider-Man the villain. But I absolutely agree with the idea that we are suffering from bad movie fatigue instead of superhero fatigue. That is certainly true!

I'm gonna be true to myself and say that The Marvels was infinitely better than this even if it's a low bar. At least, the trio had chemistry and was bonding throughout the movie with and without their powers. You don't really see that in this movie and the three girls who are supposed to be Spider-Women in the future were just people for Cassie to babysit until Ezekiel is defeated.

The concept of making a film around a side character of a main character without mentioning the main character is kind of insane

"Fine, take Peter Parker, we'll just go hard af on Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy!"

Ngl, if they hired Garfield to play a dark Spider-Man in this universe, it'd immediately make bank It could and probably would be garbage, but it'd make bank

I've felt this way since The Winter Soldier. I dont want a multi hour soap opera episode i want a self-contained story that leaves the possibility of expansion if I like it enough

2:17 sorry, but we’re a SPUMM household here

My theater went crazy when she said “May the Force be with you” best movie experience of my life

This movie should've been Charlie's Angels with spider-themed powers.

I have FANT4STIC flashbacks.

I study film at University and I talked to my teachers about this. Not Madame Web specifically, but about why do big companies make movies that are just...bad and unwanted Well, to put it simply, it will sound very harsh, but from what my teachers said, the main thing that people care at such big studios are mostly money and their image. Basically, the overall tactic is to plan out a few movies for the year, invest all your best in a few ones, make a few very bad ones just because (to see if maybe those "bad ideas" could work somehow) and then make some movies that are both made with care, but they don't expect much with it. Now, I asked why don't they care about each movie and make each one perfect. Well, once again, money. You can make 10 perfect movies, but no one can guarantee that by 100% following the vision of the creative team will always work. So, to avoid that, big studios just hope they manage to make a cash cow film to earn huge amounts of money in years to come, have a few movies that blow up for a short period of time and some spare ideas that they made just because. It is very sad to learn that bad movies may just be bad on purpose and no matter how hard you cry or how affected you feel, or how much are you worried about the actors and the vfx and Overall quality, if the heads of the company didn't care about it, be sure that thing won't shine. It is painful to understand that in reality, no matter how much you love movie making or movies in general, no matter how many ideas you have and how much time you pour into them, at the end of the day, you may end up most of the time in front of people who tell you that all that matters is money being made and that's it. It is sad. I was so disappointed to just have to accept that all the "bright" ideas in my mind will never be better than money for certain people (and I'm afraid most). So yeah, bad movies are sometimes made on purpose or are made by mistake, but if the studio did not care about it's performance and how it will affect their image, then don't even bother complaining to the moon and back about smth. Edit: Also I believe there is some stealing done through movie making with such high numbers.

I feel like so much film criticism has boiled own to obliquely saying "the writing is bad" with zero observations to back it up. I like how you actually unpack the ways in which the movie actually feels poorly executed from various angles.

I feel like it would have been good if they didn't hire the morbius writers and if they didn't dub like it feels like on set when they said a line than somebody comes and says "hey dont say that line we changed it again"

The thing thats weird about the 5 year thing is that they didn't even need to release the film to meet the deadline due to kraven, and then venom 3 will come out before the deadline again. So there was no reason to release this film now when its such a mess. They couldve even waited just a few months after venom 3 just to buy some extra time and used that time to make the film coherent

This wouldn't be happening if copyright hadn't been extended so many times and Spiderman were in the public domain already

Post-Madam Web I have to wonder if the cost of producing these Spider-Flops trumps the benefits Sony feels they get from retaining the Spider-Rights.

I'm not trying to justify Dakota Johnson's acting abilities, especially in this movie. I will point out that the characterization of Cassy Webb makes waaaayyy more sense when viewed through the lens of "Cassy is a 30 year old Gen Xer from New York in 2003".That generational key point actually makes her....odd personality quirks way more realistic. I remember how my own brother was at around that age, around that time frame and it tracks.

You're onto something good, keep it rolling

You have to feel bad for the director. She spent decades paying her dues in the industry only to be given this train wreck by Sony. Everything about this movie stinks of corporate meddling. I highly doubt the script and all the bad decisions was her fault. But now her reputation is being smeared while Sony gets to renew their license and get a nice tax write off.

I really hope those suits at the top start learning really fast that the “cheat code” of getting billions of dollars from lazy superhero movies doesn’t work anymore. I love Superheroes, and it sucks to see them get ruined over and over just to setup some cinematic multiverse.

There was a rumour that said that Madame Web went through extensive reshoots. This was also said by Dakota Johnson herself. Apparently the move would have originally featured Spider-Man(ANDREW GARFIELD) and a few other Spider-Man related Easter eggs. And would have ended with the birth of Peter Parker but the whole thing was scraped due to timeline issues. Take that as you will. 😅

It's not Superhero fatigue. And I know this because whenever a *good* superhero movie comes out. It takes over the world for a solid week.

The Spiderman debacle reminds me of when Gotham technically wasn't allowed to have the Joker in their series to make sure "audiences weren't confused" with this alternate universe style of Joker, so somehow, the Gotham bumbled their way into technically having TWO Jokers who carried the iconography, the symbolism, the wink-wink-nudge-nudge references -- but weren't allowed to call him the Joker.

Wait! I had no idea morbius had anything to do with spiderman!

These super-hero rights contracts should’ve had a clause where really bad performing movies/shows (or ones that hurt public opinion on the characters) either shorten or void the contract. “You didn’t treat our girls with any damn respect, and our boy spidey’s been pretty mistreated too….

Enjoyed your refreshing take on the movie. Sony trying to keep their Spiderman rights makes total sense as to why they dumped this movie and ran. Also sucks to have a superhero movie with no superheroes and no costumes except for pretty much what you see in the trailers.

This was the most fair review and state of the game update. SSU and even MCU now are tragically out of juice as they stopped letting real creatives have the wheel that care about a properties. Content by committee on over blown budgets will kill the industry for awhile.

It can work - Dune for example, it was worth watching even tho the first movie was basically opening for the story to unfold. It can be done, just not here

If you think this was a filler episode just look into the 1994 Fantastic Four movie, at least this got an official release.

Why don't they just cast a different person for Spider Man?

It's frustrating that the film's pitch is basically Final Destination Vs Spider-Jason and yet it was fumbled so hard even the trailers sucked. Being hunted by a Spider Totem who's gone gloves off is a death sentence, even more terrifying if they think you're powerful enough that they have to use stealth since they're now basically Batman with Xenomorph powers. Precognition is one of the few abilities that might save you, and even then it's going to be flooding you with visions of your gruesome death. How do you make that boring!?

My favorite part was how every character loves carrying around Pepsi (or PepsiCo subsidiary) products but I don't think anyone actually drinks or opens the cans on camera

I hope everyone from the Sony universe show up for an avenger-like movie. It would be really really funny.

You gotta follow the screen writers and directors, when I see Morbius writers I'm not going

I like to think I'm in the know about films and recent media. But I legitimately did not know this move existed until I saw this video. That's how inconsequential it is.

The funniest thing is that I didn’t even know the movie was out until seeing this video. I have never once been given an advertisement for this film, the only reason I knew it even existed was because a month ago I saw someone on twitter thirsting over a promo that Dakota Johnson did.

The fact that the whole internet has united to shit on this movie is nothing less than beautiful

Maybe we’re in the Silver (or Bronze) Age of comic book movies. We had our Golden Age of Dark Knight, Winter Soldier and the Infinity War arc. Now the writers (and producers, etc) don’t know how to keep the train going - though they know that they have to.

That evil Spider guy reminds me of CW's The Flash, where every season you would have (at least) one new evil Flash and some of them looked really generic like that

If the story telling quality was still at The Avengers level, the studios would still be raking in billions. This is entirely a quality issue.
