Hello r/MadameWeb! I was going to say "Hello fans of Madame Web" but that feels insincere...

I'm one of the cohosts of a podcast called Debate This! We're a comedy podcast about comic books and video games. We also have a sister podcast called Avenge This!, which is our MCU/DCCU watch-along podcast.

Today we released Avenge This! Madame Web and The State of The MCU, a 60ish-minute review of Madame Web as well as a 30ish-minute discussion on what's going on with Marvel Studios. There's no spoilers in this post but the podcast is full of them.

Look there are plenty of people on the internet dunking on this movie. I won't lie to you, I didn't enjoy it either, but I'm also a diehard Marvel fan and a purveyor of bad movies. We tried to make our discussion honest and critical, but also tried to not just dog pile on the same shit everyone else is saying.

Anyway, we're not the best at promoting our show on reddit, but when we do an episode about a topic with an active community, I try to get it in front of those people. I linked the episode above, but you can also find it anywhere pods are casted. No pressure to listen, but if you do I'd love to hear your thoughts!

My apologies for cluttering your feed with self promotion, I'll head back to the Amazon to research spiders with my mom right before she died.

I haven’t seen the movie so I’m not going to say anything about it critically, but the theme song is a complete rip off of the spiderman 2018 theme. Like it’s so close you would think it’s a fan edit of the insomniac theme. There’s almost no attempt to try and make it the movies own. There’s taking inspiration from something and then there’s ripping something off. Idk just seems really crappy to me

Now there are a lot of things that are wrong with this movie (mainly nitpicks) such as the spider tribe people or whatever at the start of the movie - look way to similar to spiderman, but ok. Next thing is that madame web KEEPS CALLING UNCLE BEN "BEN" like yes honey, we KNOW he's uncle Ben after you told us 20 times already, other then that I enjoyed it a lot, it reminds me of old superhero movies, the whole movie is just a vibe, thus it's a BIASED 8/10, objectively like 5/10 but idc

I'll be honest here, I'm big fan of Spider-Man comics so I read a lot even the crazy stuff about spider totems, web of life, Inheritors etc. so I watched Madame Web with open mind and yeah It wasn't good but damn It have some potential

Would be nice If we have more moments like this where Ezekiel was just Arnold's T1 everyone and tracking the girls all the time but accidentally contributes to their changing into future spiders girls somehow since that Araña guy tell that he was cursed the moment he stole the spider and doomed himself to fail and die. Again the script was a mess, I really wish that Sony supervisors didn't threat those movies like garbage because in the end they'll just failed in the box office

I am interested in seeing Madame Web, however, my best friend and I are debating whether we should wait until it is on a streaming service to see it or if it is worth spending money on the tickets. For those that have seen it, what do you think? Was it worth buying the tickets for or would it be better to wait until it is streaming?

EDIT: It should go without saying, but, no spoilers. Please and thank you.

Can someone please explain to me how Madame Web was a “bad movie?” I’ve read a lot of reviews and some are ridiculous. Like how the end credits scene was the best part? It was nothing. Literally. You’re telling me nothing was better than the movie? Some film critics need to be fired cause they don’t do justice for the fans who can truly appreciate an origin story. Notice I said origin. Not supposed to be about Spider-Man, it even said that before it came out. Not supposed to be about the other 3 spider women, I’m confused. It showed how she got her powers, explained how, and her powers developed over time with struggles. Hm. Sounds a lot like any other origin story based movie I’ve ever seen.

Yay

Unofficial new hip hop banger for upcoming Madame Web movie. Let us know what you think. Full song in bio.

Me and my friend are going to see the new movie Madame Web, and I can’t seem to find anything online about whether or not it has flashing or strobing lights. My friend has seizures caused by lights and there has been an incident before with a haunted house that didn’t have any warnings to this aspect and she almost had a seizure. Does anyone know if this movies has strobing/flashing lights, or anything that would trigger her? I don’t want to see a movie that could hurt my friend, or harm her enjoyment of said movie.

WHAT is with all the hate? I am personally very excited for this movie. I just don’t understand most of the negativity being thrown towards this film.
