So we never learn how to have sex? Dammit, I thought I’d finally find out!
I thought Gaga got naked at some point.
Your reply was an hour ago.
That’s four.
It’ll survive but it’s hard for it not to be tainted. Vince’s dad started the company but once it got off the ground in the early 80s and was renamed WWF, Vince ran the show for the next several decades. He was in charge for its most prolific eras and also was a driving force in bringing wrestling to a more mainstream audience. Talking about wrestling history from this point on will always have an asterisk.
My point being that those other characters have fans and franchises while Madame Web never did as she was just a side character who appeared sporadically in Spider-Man.
Iron Man and Deadpool had a fanbase and have had their own comic series, cartoons, video games, toys, etc.
Madame Web never had those things.
Going by Secret Invasion, they didn’t stop being morons.
I think it was meant to he but did they specifically say the name Jessica Drew? That might be a way around the copyrights.
I think Marvel/Disney has the rights to Spider-Woman and Sony has the rights to… the rest. So they made a movie about The Rest.
It’s not a failure because chicks are in it, it’s a failure because they took a bunch of c-list characters who had nothing to do with one another in the comics and put them in a movie.
You are lucky.
I think that distinction goes to Love and Thunder. This one is bad but that one was just bafflingly terrible.
Yeah, they want to have their own cinematic universe and have been trying to set up a Sinister Six movie for ages. The funny part is, they don’t seem to know what Spider-Man they want to use.
They were gonna put Andrew Garfield in but then change their mind and have Tom Holland so it could be in the MCU and then when they realized a young Ben and May show up, they took Spidey out all together. This means they really have no idea how this fits into the movies and don’t care.
I think it was more to emphasize how Mystique joined Magento’s squad and turned evil. Not that much came from that set up by the next film but that’s also a weird thing the later X-Men movies did. At any rate, Azazel was said to have died and Mystique met Nightcrawler a few movies later with no implications of anything.
Again, I’m not sure why you think he’s being polite. Can you give examples? The dude was gradually getting more and more hostile the whole way through except for the last two seconds of the clip when he gives a slight smile and pats Bill on the back:

“ Nope, he lies with a smile on his face and nice manners.”
Yeah, when people lie, they tend to act nice and polite. Kinda defeats the purpose otherwise. And even then, his lies involve being nonchalant about the hooker that OD’d at his house, telling his friend that his buddies were playing head games to scare him and said the piano player deserved to get beaten up. Not exactly Mr Niceguy.
“ He "threatens" him like a friend.
That sort of nicety, you know”
I don’t know about your circle of friends but I never had any of mine threaten to kill me and my family.
It’s weird that you don’t want serious thrillers to be realistic though.
What nicety? He outright lies to, then threatens the main character. He is painted as nothing BUT a monster. You claiming Kubrick condoned that sort if thing is baseless.
And what exactly is the alternative beyond being realistic. Did you want to see Zeigler shouting, “The world shall be ours” while lightning strikes in the distance? It wouldn’t make any sense considering what we know about him.
What makes you think either of are on his side? His behavior is common in thrillers like this where a rich, powerful guy is just hanging out in mansion, giving warnings not to look further and it seems pretty realistic to me. When some rich and powerful people were up to no good, I don’t think they’re skulking in the shadows, laughing maniacally like a cartoon villain. They’re probably just hanging out at hime with the family, go to rich people parties and then do the shady stuff.
In fact, in lesser movies, when a character the audience thought was on the up-and-up is revealed to be evil, the character’s personality suddenly does a 180 and it’s always bad. It’s terrible writing.
