so, should I skip this? I'm seriously considering it.

 

Absolutely! You don't need to see the future to know you'll waste your hard earned money with a mediocre product.

 

Save the money to watch Dune 2 and Godzilla vs Kong 2

You have to wondere, from these comments, if the producer knoe what the hell they were doing.

Baby Peter is born in 2003 in this movie. Take from that what you want.

So it's written to be Holland even though there's zero way he's going to show up in this

Thye might have been smarter just to ignore the issue, way Venom did.

SO except for Venom, which seems to be aone off based on the charecter's popularity, the Spidey spinoff movies are not working very well?

[Krissykins]

Why was the villains voice not matching up to the actors mouth? It was distracting lol

Most of the movie was ADRed to death. Many lines from Dakota didn't lined up either.

Sony have been stuck into a corner with their Marvel characters. They mostly have half developed villains and their friends and families. The El Muerto movie they scrapped was based on a character that had only appeared in 2 issues of a comic book. Madam Web and the characters presented wouldn't classify as popular characters or characters known to most Spidey fans. Sony don't have characters with enough foundation, story, or cultural cache to justify making movies about them in the same conveyor belt process Marvel and DC can. I think Sony are aware because apart from this years batch of movies that have already been shot and produced, they haven't been any sign of development on any other of the announced movies they had planned (what happened to Hypno Hustler???).

IDK but both El Meurto and Hypno Hustler seem to have been conceived of as star vehicles where the lack of a pre-existing storyline was sold as a plus. Does the death of El Muerto mean Sony ditched this new concept or did they just reject bad bunny?

I bet money that those movies are scrapped (I remember they had stuff with Spike Lee and Olvia Wilde lined up too). I know they've got TV shows in the works for Amazon. Im guessing Sony have pivoted towards them rather than movies.

The concept behind Morbius and Madame Web are interesting, and having those movies build to a team up with Venom and Vulture could have been exciting. The idea behind this shared universe is good, the problem is the execution. It doesn't even seem like Sony is trying to make something good.

His was almost the full performance though? Wonder if it was ropey delivery from the actor to begin with, but still lol

He has said in interviews that he ADRed 70% of his dialogue.

Oh so it was the same guy, yikes. Hammy delivery either way then.

One thing about getting older is spotting all the era-related inaccuracies in new movies set in a time when you were younger. For example: theres a guy here playing a PSP in 2003

Two full years before it was officially released in America.

God , that is pure incompetence. A lot of films use ADR, but if done compently you can't tell it is ADR. This is just plain bad film making.

That is not unusual, what is unusual is that the ADR was done so ineptly. Over 50% of the LOTR films were ADR'd but you could not tell. No excuse for this plain old incompetence.
