Make no mistake. Sony’s latest attempt at a Spider-Man spinoff, Madame Web, is bad. Pretty much everything about it is bad: the script, the acting, the cinematography, and more. But, in our mind, one thing towers over the rest. The king of all things Bad-ame Web. But, to talk about it, we have to dive into spoilers.Unboxing Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition Playstation 5 BundleThe main narrative drive of Madame Web stems from the bad guy Ezekiel (Tahar Rahim) having visions of his death.

Madame Web is a two-hour trailer for the movie you think you’re watching, but actually aren’t. If that’s confusing, welcome to the world of Madame Web, where everyone—the characters, the actors, the audience, and everyone in between—is confused about basically everything, all of the time.

Johnson is joined in the film, from director S.J. Clarkson, by a trio of other Spider-Women, including Euphoria superstar Sydney Sweeney as Julia Carpenter, Isabela Merced (Superman: Legacy) as Anya Corazon, and Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire‘s Celeste O’Connor as Mattie Franklin.…

I’m pretty sure it’s been quite a while since TWD made me feel like a character was in real danger or did anything that made me wonder what was going to happen next.” I am pleased to report tonight’s episode surprised me, made me anxious, and left me wondering what’s coming next week.Now, given that next week’s episode of The Walking Dead is…

I’m pretty sure it’s been quite a while since TWD made me feel like a character was in real danger or did anything that made me wonder what was going to happen next. Tonight’s episode, “Faith,” was a pretty egregious example of The Walking Dead’s continuing failure to do either.You know what?

In tonight’s episode, it choo-choo-choosesto gather its characters (well, most of them) for a single, coherent plotline that will lead directly to the final conflict with the Commonwealth. One could even say the show is running at full steam toward the end.
