Hey, Uncle Ben Top, HiTop Films here to talk about the universally beloved Sony film, Madame Web. Why is Madame Web? What is Madame Web. These questions have plagued my mind since I saw the film. Who knew that Adam Scott would be playing Ben Parker, who knew that Emma Roberts would be playing Mary Parker, who knew that there would be no mention of Peter Parker. This is possibly a Madame Web Rant, Rave, Ramble. I just feel bad for all the people involved. Why is Andrew Garfield Spider-Man in the thumbnail, is Andrew Garfield Madame Web? No, even if he should have been. I guess you could say that Madame Web is a BAD Spider-Man Movie. This fits formally into the HiTop Films Spider-Man Video Essay Series.

Thank you to THAT ONE DOESN’T COUNT for editing this video!

    I’m sorry seeing “Why is Madam Web” appear on my notifications fucking killed me
  • @lifeishard3725
    This man probably found out the original plot and sleekly told it to us.
  • @DrDirtyLeggz
    A Terminator movie with a Spider as a hunter should've slapped. Yet here we are, in the darkest timeline
  • @RayMcElroy50
    The reason why the original Spider-Man trilogy worked was because of Laura Ziskin It was because of her and her husband (the screenwriter Alvin Sargent) that the movies had depth Sadly, she died in 2011, during the production of TASM1 She was the only one at the time that cared about quality rather than quantity or toys sales

    "It feels like the spiritual successor to Elektra" is about the most damning, biting criticism I have ever heard about this movie, bravo

    As someone who watched the movie, I’ll say this… I had my share of fun when watching this film. Cinematography was the biggest highlight for me. Adam and Emma were surprisingly fitting in their roles. At times I even felt invested in the story (and then the 3rd act happened). But as Alex said at the end, the biggest problem isn’t the movie itself. It’s the reason this and all the other Sony-verse movies exist. They might be fun to ridicule, and some of the filmmakers might carry these movies with their effort and talent. But ultimately these films feel pointless, and you won’t remember them after watching. And unless Sony’s mindset somehow changes; and they stop meddling, butchering and micromanaging like crazy, Kraven, Silk and potentially other characters will also become a laughing stock in the eyes of many.

    I like how in this video you don’t just talk about the “wokeness” or how we “need male directions again instead of women” or any other of the things I hear on these clickbait reviews. This one is actually constructive and recognizes the people who made this as *actually being people*.
  • These Sonyverse movies started out as spin-offs of the Amazing Spider-Man movies. They were meant to be part of an interconnected Spider-Man universe, using all his beloved characters to tell a grand story. But sadly, that all fell apart because one movie slightly underperformed, and Sony through the idea out the window. It was a sad day. 😔

    I literally died when i found out that they reused a scene from spiderman 2 in the ending for the flash forward scene lmao
  • @JesseCaldwell06
    Hey Alex, I’m 17 I just wanted to say thank you for inspiring me to be a filmmaker
  • I was actually moderately hyped for Madam Webb because of the superhero costumes, then I learned that it was all a giant bait and switch and that killed my desire to see it
  • I am so glad you highlighted the “us strays need to stick together” line. My friends and I cracked up when she said that! I even wrote it down in my notes in the theater so as not to forget that gem of a quote.
  • Sniper Kevin Feige is probably the best thing to come out of the MCU since NWH for me.

    VENOM had the writer from 50 SHADES OF GREY (who is also directing VENOM 3) MORBIUS had the writers from GODS OF EGYPT (Who are also behind MADAME WEB) And KRAVEN THE HUNTER has the writers from TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT AVI ARAD ruined everything again, just like he ruined TASM series And he isn't even involved in MADAME WEB But he is behind BORDERLANDS though

    I just started college a few months back to study film, and I've been doubting myself a lot over those past few months, when it comes to writing, shooting, directing or anything of that matter, and I honestly started to question whether or not I really wanted to go down this path, but dude whenever you upload a video it reminds me just why I love movies so much, the way you talk about things with such passion and energy resonates with me so deeply, and they're such a nice reignition of that same passion for me. It doesn't matter whether it's Madame Web or Aftersun, your videos are always so full of love for cinema, and they make me remember why I love it too, so thank you :)
  • @dankbeans2711
    Absolutely love all of your takes on this film! Its irks me so much when i see a good premise being shaved down into something basic and universally-digestible by studios that are more concerned with churning out a fast one than telling memorable and moving stories. I wish more people in industry shared the love and passion that you have for genuine storytelling. Love the vid, as always cant wait for the next one!
  • Having seen the film myself, I can honestly say that my first reaction leaving the theater was laughter so hard and so loud, you'd think I was doing an impression of Ra's al Ghul at the end of B:TAS' "The Demon's Quest" Part 2. And not because this was a good movie.

    I mean Andrew’s Peter being destined to become Spider-Man with the whole Richard’s blood being infused in the spider… makes Andrew’s the only Spider-Man this COULD be connected to, no?
