That looks better than expected for Sony.

At least it's better than Morbius. Dakota is just a horrible actress. Not sure how much changed since the screening back in August, but I don't have high hopes.

Runaway

I'm more than pleasantly surprised.

Since this has been so long delayed I wonder how long they've wrapped up this cast if this actually does well. I know Merced is already on tap to play Hawkgirl in the Superman movie.

Why So Blu?

Spiderverse now on the CW. Looks like whatever.

I kind of have a weird respect for Sony throwing millions of dollars at a theatrical movie featuring maybe the 103rd most important Spider-Man character. That's commitment to the i.p. There's almost 0% chance I'll see it, but I respect it nonetheless.

Could be alright. It looks better than other Marvel films by Sony.

It didn't have Tom Hardy singing "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off" to himself while making breakfast, so that statement can't possibly be true.

It's really odd to me that they didn't do a live action Spider Gwen/Ghost Spider movie (I realize that would be tough without Gwen in the main movies, but it's multiverse so..) or a Jessica Drew Spiderwoman movie or basically anything else besides this and Morbius. I mean maybe someone had a vision about... Madame Web... and came to them with this but I doubt it.

Not that I mind Miles and Gwen being in far superior animated movies, it just seems like a weird thing to pass on when all you have is the Spider characters.

Also Adam Scott as is certainly a choice. Can't wait until the officially adapt Trouble.

Now that I would watch

Why So Blu?

Post #26 already had the trailer up.

stingermck

It must have changed because earlier it was half behind the scenes trailer.

That's a good point about Spiderwoman. Regardless of which Spiderwoman (and there's 2 different ones in this movie), that name alone seems like it'd 1000x more marketable than Madame Web. Maybe the deal with Marvel and the MCU precluded then from making a Spiderwoman movie? Who knows.

fujishig

And I don't believe for a second that those Spiderwomen (and spider girl) costume shots are anything more than a cameo in the movie itself, otherwise why not plaster that everywhere?

Spiderbite

It looks better than the last several films by Marvel. Seriously.

This definitely wasn't on my radar, and I have zero knowledge of how Madame Web is connected to the Spider-Verse. Who is the Spider-Man that keeps popping up in the trailer?

Sydney Sweeny looks like she thought she was in one of those ugly duckling movies where the girl puts on glasses, dumpy clothes and musses their hair and the jocks dare the popular quarterback to take her to prom.

devilshalo

Ezekiel Sims... yeah, I dunno who he is either... well past my days of collecting.

fujishig

He's basically not really a villain in the comics so like Madame Webb herself there's probably only a tangential connection between comic character and on screen character.

It was in JMS's run where Spider-man's powers weren't just given to him by a radioactive spider, they were granted to him by that spider through some hocus pocus spider totem. So he's like one of the original people with "spider totem" powers and he's been watching Peter all his life to protect him from some interdimensional bad guy named Morlun who hunts people that are granted the totem powers (he also hid Silk away). Morlun is the one who hunted spider characters across the multiverse and is where the whole spiderverse came from (though those movies wisely avoid him) And the only reason I'm putting this nonsense in here is because I'm sure it's not going to be touched upon in the movie.

Sydney Sweeney is Julia Carpenter, basically a Spiderwoman (but not Jessica Drew from the original cartoon) who was introduced in the original Secret Wars and originally had a costume like Spidey's black costume. Celeste O'conner is another Spiderwoman (still not Jessica Drew). Isabela Merced is Anya Corazon, Spidergirl. Basically all the E list characters that you might see in the background of spiderverse somewhere.

RocShemp

This looks like an easy pass, given how generic the trailer makes it look.

Decker

This has quickly become a Kevin James-like internet meme thing :

Hazel Motes

Looks like a pretty bad movie.

The Antipodean

Looks utterly horrible. Dakota Johnson cannot act her way out of a paper bag. After watching the trailer, I agree with this take:

What's next, a Kraven the Hunter fi... oh, wait.

This whole "Spider-Man movies without Spider-Man actually in them" sub-sub-genre is not one I had on my bucket list a few years back...

Abob Teff

I have to admit, I laughed when one of them threw something at her as she was claiming she could see the future.

Looks "bland with potential." Something enjoyable enough to eat popcorn to for 90 minutes.
