OK, clearly unpopular take here, but I find Dakota extremely hot. I especially like her voice and her expressions as she speaks. That "I think you'll see it twice" part, go ahead and flame me, but I find that extremely sexy.
My perverted sentiments, exactly. It seems kind of twisted to comsoom Hollywood product that way*, but also hilarious,. *- The same way I've enjoyed generating a 250-to-3 ratio of "time spent watching TLJ" to "time spent watching people ripping TL:J"
I like the part where Ben Parker crashes another letter from the Pepsi sign into the one that's about to crush Ezekiel, then tells Madame Webb "we'll win by saving what we love, not fighting what we hate" while Ezekiel kills the girls in the background
I'm annoyed that when I mess up at my job, I get reprimanded, but when these Hollywood writers do the exact same thing, they get multi-million contracts and critical acclaim.
It's pretty cliche, but the movie should have been about her having visions she was going to get paralyzed, trying to do whatever she can to avoid that future, then at the end realize the way she gets paralyzed is protecting the girls and choosing to allow it to happen to save them. Would have made the end where she knows what's going to happen with Peter's family and doesn't do anything to stop it better, because she would know how important it is for those events to happen.
It's a working cliche for a reason. A hero's journey is still the most reliable way to define a character arc and make audiences care for the protagonist.
I always called it "Dracula: Unwatched." (Funny thing, that movie did fairly well at the box office but it got shellacked by the critics and so, Universal panicked. Which is how we got The Mummy. The uh, Tom Cruise one. Not the good one from the late 90s.)

The idea of two people who can see the future fighting would actually be very interesting, an entire “fight scene” could be them just staring at eachother while in their heads both are simultaneously having Sherlock Holmes style inner monologues trying to find a scenario at the same time to beat the other while physically maybe slightly shifting in an attempt to fake the other out
I actually really liked the Holmes-Moriarty scene you’re referring to. Also, if you want an awesome version of the concept you’re describing, check out Hero with Jet Li (at least I’m pretty sure that’s the movie it was in).

I had to get permission to access certain folders. All of that security was for a low-level employee to access videos and MRIs of children. Obviously a HIPAA violation if they got out, but not a matter of national security.

Me and my friends couldn't remember the bad guy's name. So we just called him Ceiling Guy. We head-canoned that he was at his most powerful indoors and on ceilings. The joke got funnier each time he walked or crawled on ceilings. The fact that he dies outside on the ground was the straw that broke the funny camel's back and we were actually wheezing about it in the parking lot.
I'm going to be honest; this movie is atrocious in almost every single front. But I find it hilariously bad. I was alone in the theater and I was howling with laughter. I swear this film is so incompetent it is amazing just to watch. Everything from the cinematography, editing, and writing are just terrible. The power of product placement is what kills Evil, I mean Ezekiel. It's hysterical. The attendant when I was finished asked cheekily how I liked it and I told her "it was awful but so entertaining.". This movie is NOT worth checking out in theaters. Wait for streaming, get a few friends and some drinks and have a laugh. The Marvels was terrible on multiple levels for how incompetent it is but Madame Web is just funny bad in how not to make a movie.
@Avarn388 Madame Web is Gen Z's version of The Room. Not as quotable or memorable, but a perfect -10 out of 10 movie, in its own right. Or maybe a -9, since at least they do a passable job with the cinematography and stunts, so not quite prefect yet.
I need the opinion of my fellow future authors: If I frame characters giving exposition dumps as an argument, could I get away with it? From my experience, people will repeat a lot of information to convince each other of the opposite opinion.
This was a crazy film. It builds up the insanity and ineptness as it goes, culminating in what might be the most atrocious effort-free ending i have ever seen. Its positively orgasmic. The second its over you look at the screen, look at those around you with profound disghust and self loathing.
In German, there is this colloquial phrase:"In die Bresche springen." The english version is quite the same:"To step into the breach." In modern terms, some Little Platoon will do the unthinkable & save us from certain death. A gentleman & a scholar, indeed.
1:01:24 The tragic bit is where she slowed the man down for 5 seconds trying to prevent the crash. If he just got in the ambulance, he would have cleared the intersection.
I could see her being pissed that her mother was gallivanting around the Peruvian forest while 9 months pregnant (which directly led to her dying in childbirth) but apparently that was too long a line to put in the movie.
In The Fifth Element, the protagonist and the villain never interact with each other the whole movie. Somehow, that's better than them only interacting in the finale (and maybe during an LSD trip a few minutes earlier).
But Platoon……….it’s a new take on a superhero story. It’s a female forward cast, so it’s good. All the cast have their natural hair on show, so that’s a thing to advertise. The cast is female, again….and diverse, and it’s great to have women that look like them being portrayed on screen to represent everyone who looks like them on screen….oh and of course, they are strong and brave…….and diverse
What you said about the movie using a inversion of Uncle Ben's great power, great responsibility line is absolutely true. So much so, that in the comics they did that, for a villain! In the Spider-Man story arc, The Big time, there's a parallel to what happens to Peter with the character of Phil urich. Phil, a former minor hero, snaps and kills the hobgoblin and replaces him as the kingpins enforcer. Add to the same time, he sells photos of himself as the hobgoblin to his Uncle Ben urich, a reporter at The daily bugle. In his last panel in the story arc, Phil thinks to himself about "how he has so much responsibility now. But with that responsibility, so much power!" It really highlighted the difference between this twisted "might makes right" mentality, versus the "might for right" Uncle Ben was trying to talk about.
22:00 Here's a way more intriguing opening. The villain has the same motivations, but isn't just trash. They retrieve the spider, but the mother is injured. He tries to save her with the serum they synthesized, but she dies in childbirth. He takes the second and only existing dose, saves the child and brings her back to civilization where he becomes rich using the powers the serum gave him to run hit jobs as a mercenary for any government willing to pay, but never revealing that he has those powers. He helps raise from afar as a favorite uncle, providing money etc... for her schooling, but she starts to have dreams of a frightening warrior killing people in horrendous ways. When one of those hits happens closer to her home she responds to the scene which is particularly grizzly, and has a episode where she sees that it is her "uncle" under the mask. She doesn't know if her visions are true or not etc... Could go a million ways from there, but it would be incredibly intriguing.
I know this is an old joke, but imagine if the Amazon spider venom was actually a powerful hallucinogen, and this whole movie happened inside the mom's head while she was tripping balls in the Amazon.
“There was some guys trying to subtly dump their girlfriends by subjecting them to Madame Web and vice versa.” I had to dump Madame Web by subjecting her to my girlfriend.
I think Dakota Johnson realised part way through production that she had made a mistake by agreeing to do this movie, so she phoned it in, took the money, fired her agent and moved on 😂😂😂
@@JeremySayers38 From what I heard, the script that Johnson received and made her agree to take the part was scrapped and she had already signed so she couldn't back out. And there were rumors that her agent at that time had lied to her and said she was going to be part of MCU and when she saw the trailer, she fired that agent and left the talent agency.
I love how you use clips from movies (even outtakes) that match the context or tone that you are trying to convey. Using the Captain America "cause i'm in charge" outtake at 1:21:03 was fucking hilarious.
You are the only creator that manages, without fail, to get me belly laughing at your pained, acerbic incredulity with whatever tripe you're confronted with. Thank you for risking your sanity to transform these execrable films into something genuinely entertaining.
@blind2d I don't really like any racial arguments that can't just have the races swapped and it sounds like something from a nazi. That's really all I could think of during black panther.
You are probably one of the few UA-cam creators I genuinely get excited for a new video, and then get disappointed when it's not 5hrs long. I really appreciate your work! Please keep it up!
27:07 you get the RDJ Sherlock Holmes Movie where Sherlock and his nemesis are sitting across from eachother going back and forth about how they would get the upper hand until Sherlock says fuck it and throws them both over the edge of a cliff
Dakota acts and talks like she's been lobotomized. She's so emotionless and takes so long to react and answer, for real it's like they did that icepick lobotomy on her that they used to do back in the day on hysterical women.
I figure she's a t800. She needs a minute to process what she's heard and to figure out how a hoomaan would react and then tries to fake a hoomaan response. The timing ads up
I've honestly never heard of Sydney Sweeney before this movie, but I've been having so much fun with Madame Web. It's like, if this could get made, literally anyone can write a movie. Like The Movie Cynic said, this is "god-tier trash." This is the daughter of "The Room." This movie girlbosses "Morbius" in every single way. Morbius is actually competent in most other things besides it's script. I mean, this is the Magnus Opum of horrible big-budget movies. This _literally_ makes Spider-Man Lotus looks good. It's incredible how it even exists.
Damn now that you mention Spider-Man lotus they might as well be in the same universe I get this weird undeveloped unconnected feel from this movie ever since I watched the trailer actually
As a woman with a similarly large bust to Sydney Sweeney I do feel the need to say that the universe frequently hides such assets behind a kind of frumpy nerd, lol
A former GF of mine was that way. She was self conscious of it and almost always dressed to hide it. We went to a beach and some of the girls who had always assumed she wasn't well endowed saw her.. it was gratifying to see such naked envy on their faces. Yes I'm a petty man but she put up with a lot of crap that was "just joking" comments.
This could all have been a writer kink for all we know, they write superheroes and don't go outside, so getting off nerd girls and making them hotter makes sense.
Hers are most likely fake, and she doesn't even seem like a real person at all. Never heard of her once until this trash. Almost like she didn't even exist before this trash or that all of her prior works were SSSSOOOOOO trash that it wasn't even necessary for anyone to point it out.
One of the most intelligent women I’ve known is a bit nerdy and has quite the spectacular bustline. A close runner-up is less nerdy and not quite so busty but almost. Bosomy brainy women aren’t all that rare, and underestimating a woman just because she’s so buxom is foolish.
When Madame Web said, "Get your hands off Ma-dame spider!" I webbed my pants. It was almost as good as when Ben said, "Take your ass and Park'er right there!" or when Ezikiel said "I'm evil!!"
the friction line frustrates me more than it should. Its just that it's so unrelated to walking on the ceiling because friction only acts transverse to a plane and you can't use friction to walk on walls because the normal force is too low. It would've been a more effective smart science nerd line if she shouted: "i can't walk ceiling cause gravity go down!"
You just inspired my nerd version of Angrish "Okay, that was short but made sense. The fact it was short means you're about to choose violence. We do it your way." Some extra: Why, does he-- "He": *Krav Maga* "That's a martial art. You want a Sample, go stupid! [The extra squeaks a NO] XD Funny how this crappy products inspire people to do better stuff HUH?
Yeah, I viewed Killmonger as a *believable* villian, because vengeful racism is absolutely a thing. But to genuinely find him sympathetic, the viewer would have to on some level agree with vengeful racism. So… I guess that film is useful for flushing out the people to be scared of.
you can find a character sympathetic without sympathizing with every single aspect of their character. this is pretty obvious if you have any sort of critical thinking skills. not everything is a stark diactomy, even "good" characters can have terrible qualities.
I think she was lied to about the premise. As another commenter pointed out, all this was ever going to be was a slop film designed to protect IPs from Marvel.

The directors who made movies like these are the kids who made up stupid rules in games and got mad when you didn't want to play with them any more. They are still mentally that same age.
I think there is an explanation for the newspaper midday print: the writers were very young in 2003, so they can not remember how printed newspapers work or they did not read them back then. So they think a printed paper is like the online vesion. Everytime there is a new article, they print and distribute a new version. And this is how the subway story is in the print later the same day.

Me and my friends couldn't remember the bad guy's name. So we just called him Ceiling Guy. We head-canoned that he was at his most powerful indoors and on ceilings.
The joke got funnier each time he walked or crawled on ceilings. The fact that he dies outside on the ground was the straw that broke the funny camel's back and we were actually wheezing about it in the parking lot.
That's funny lol
I think this classifies as canon lore.
I'm going to be honest; this movie is atrocious in almost every single front. But I find it hilariously bad. I was alone in the theater and I was howling with laughter. I swear this film is so incompetent it is amazing just to watch. Everything from the cinematography, editing, and writing are just terrible. The power of product placement is what kills Evil, I mean Ezekiel. It's hysterical. The attendant when I was finished asked cheekily how I liked it and I told her "it was awful but so entertaining.". This movie is NOT worth checking out in theaters. Wait for streaming, get a few friends and some drinks and have a laugh. The Marvels was terrible on multiple levels for how incompetent it is but Madame Web is just funny bad in how not to make a movie.
Even though these studios don't deserve the box office, I will say that I'm glad the people who watch this trash ironically have a good time 😂
Similar here I wanted to see how bad it was going to be 😂
OMG I'm going to watch it now. Also watch The Regime with Kate Winslet, it's really good so far.
@Avarn388
Madame Web is Gen Z's version of The Room. Not as quotable or memorable, but a perfect -10 out of 10 movie, in its own right. Or maybe a -9, since at least they do a passable job with the cinematography and stunts, so not quite prefect yet.
I need the opinion of my fellow future authors: If I frame characters giving exposition dumps as an argument, could I get away with it? From my experience, people will repeat a lot of information to convince each other of the opposite opinion.
This was a crazy film. It builds up the insanity and ineptness as it goes, culminating in what might be the most atrocious effort-free ending i have ever seen. Its positively orgasmic. The second its over you look at the screen, look at those around you with profound disghust and self loathing.
😂
There’s nothing quite like it. It’s a sadistic film that masochists have to love.

I could see her being pissed that her mother was gallivanting around the Peruvian forest while 9 months pregnant (which directly led to her dying in childbirth) but apparently that was too long a line to put in the movie.
“I forgive you, mom, for having the maternal instincts of a Tasmanian devil”
In The Fifth Element, the protagonist and the villain never interact with each other the whole movie. Somehow, that's better than them only interacting in the finale (and maybe during an LSD trip a few minutes earlier).

But Platoon……….it’s a new take on a superhero story. It’s a female forward cast, so it’s good. All the cast have their natural hair on show, so that’s a thing to advertise. The cast is female, again….and diverse, and it’s great to have women that look like them being portrayed on screen to represent everyone who looks like them on screen….oh and of course, they are strong and brave…….and diverse
Absolutely love the editing in your videos. I say this literally every time but, the use of the South Park clips is always spot on.
What you said about the movie using a inversion of Uncle Ben's great power, great responsibility line is absolutely true. So much so, that in the comics they did that, for a villain!
In the Spider-Man story arc, The Big time, there's a parallel to what happens to Peter with the character of Phil urich. Phil, a former minor hero, snaps and kills the hobgoblin and replaces him as the kingpins enforcer. Add to the same time, he sells photos of himself as the hobgoblin to his Uncle Ben urich, a reporter at The daily bugle.
In his last panel in the story arc, Phil thinks to himself about "how he has so much responsibility now. But with that responsibility, so much power!"
It really highlighted the difference between this twisted "might makes right" mentality, versus the "might for right" Uncle Ben was trying to talk about.
That’s incredible
@@ryonalionthunderit’s only to be expected, I think… incredible that they used it here as a hero thing when it’s so villainous, yes.
Madame Web conjured up the grim reaper and told him about his toxic masculinity 😮
HA!!
Reaper is a woman but go off.
Your channel is so good I literally have my therapist watching. Thank you Little Platoon
You know it's bad when you'd rather watch a 2 hour roast than the actual movie itself
22:00 Here's a way more intriguing opening. The villain has the same motivations, but isn't just trash. They retrieve the spider, but the mother is injured. He tries to save her with the serum they synthesized, but she dies in childbirth. He takes the second and only existing dose, saves the child and brings her back to civilization where he becomes rich using the powers the serum gave him to run hit jobs as a mercenary for any government willing to pay, but never revealing that he has those powers.
He helps raise from afar as a favorite uncle, providing money etc... for her schooling, but she starts to have dreams of a frightening warrior killing people in horrendous ways. When one of those hits happens closer to her home she responds to the scene which is particularly grizzly, and has a episode where she sees that it is her "uncle" under the mask. She doesn't know if her visions are true or not etc...
Could go a million ways from there, but it would be incredibly intriguing.
Sounds a bit like Spiderverse. Interesting concept
I know this is an old joke, but imagine if the Amazon spider venom was actually a powerful hallucinogen, and this whole movie happened inside the mom's head while she was tripping balls in the Amazon.
Would certainly explain a few things.
An Occurence At Spider Clan Pool, sort of

I think Dakota Johnson realised part way through production that she had made a mistake by agreeing to do this movie, so she phoned it in, took the money, fired her agent and moved on 😂😂😂
Can Dakota Johnson not read or ask her Mum and Dad if the script is any good? Cause they are both rich actors but NO it is the agent's fault.
@@JeremySayers38 From what I heard, the script that Johnson received and made her agree to take the part was scrapped and she had already signed so she couldn't back out. And there were rumors that her agent at that time had lied to her and said she was going to be part of MCU and when she saw the trailer, she fired that agent and left the talent agency.
@@annabanana7659 I wonder who made the rumours, her new agents,
I love how you use clips from movies (even outtakes) that match the context or tone that you are trying to convey.
Using the Captain America "cause i'm in charge" outtake at 1:21:03 was fucking hilarious.
It is nice to see people appreciate these details in the editing, they often make it a much longer job but comments like these make it also woth it !
You are the only creator that manages, without fail, to get me belly laughing at your pained, acerbic incredulity with whatever tripe you're confronted with. Thank you for risking your sanity to transform these execrable films into something genuinely entertaining.
Thank you Platoon for being the only voice I’ve ever heard that accepts Killmonger was bad and stupid.
MauLer and EFAP think the same.
Killmonger was a villain, so yeah he was bad, but he did bring up some good points about Western colonialism
@blind2d I don't really like any racial arguments that can't just have the races swapped and it sounds like something from a nazi. That's really all I could think of during black panther.
@@fujifilm5127I guess that's fair but Killmonger was and remains the villain...
It's okay because he's black
You are probably one of the few UA-cam creators I genuinely get excited for a new video, and then get disappointed when it's not 5hrs long. I really appreciate your work! Please keep it up!
That scene should have ended with "You're a smart man. You could make trillions on pharmaceuticals from the spider venom" "Oh yeah."
27:07 you get the RDJ Sherlock Holmes Movie where Sherlock and his nemesis are sitting across from eachother going back and forth about how they would get the upper hand until Sherlock says fuck it and throws them both over the edge of a cliff
Dakota acts and talks like she's been lobotomized. She's so emotionless and takes so long to react and answer, for real it's like they did that icepick lobotomy on her that they used to do back in the day on hysterical women.
Yeah, its downright uncanny
They need to bring that treatment back. Discarded too soon.
I figure she's a t800. She needs a minute to process what she's heard and to figure out how a hoomaan would react and then tries to fake a hoomaan response. The timing ads up

Isn’t her mom the same way, though?
I've honestly never heard of Sydney Sweeney before this movie, but I've been having so much fun with Madame Web. It's like, if this could get made, literally anyone can write a movie. Like The Movie Cynic said, this is "god-tier trash." This is the daughter of "The Room." This movie girlbosses "Morbius" in every single way. Morbius is actually competent in most other things besides it's script. I mean, this is the Magnus Opum of horrible big-budget movies. This _literally_ makes Spider-Man Lotus looks good. It's incredible how it even exists.
*its script
("It's" means "it is")
Also, I assume you were kidding, but it's "Magnum Opus," not "Magnus Opum."
Damn now that you mention Spider-Man lotus they might as well be in the same universe I get this weird undeveloped unconnected feel from this movie ever since I watched the trailer actually
@@jake12466 I kinda like Magnus Opum though... or Opium perhaps. Think I'll use it as my next internet name, after I get tired of Tits McGee.
Which means everything that comes after will look better by comparison
As a woman with a similarly large bust to Sydney Sweeney I do feel the need to say that the universe frequently hides such assets behind a kind of frumpy nerd, lol
A former GF of mine was that way. She was self conscious of it and almost always dressed to hide it. We went to a beach and some of the girls who had always assumed she wasn't well endowed saw her.. it was gratifying to see such naked envy on their faces. Yes I'm a petty man but she put up with a lot of crap that was "just joking" comments.
This could all have been a writer kink for all we know, they write superheroes and don't go outside, so getting off nerd girls and making them hotter makes sense.
Hers are most likely fake, and she doesn't even seem like a real person at all. Never heard of her once until this trash. Almost like she didn't even exist before this trash or that all of her prior works were SSSSOOOOOO trash that it wasn't even necessary for anyone to point it out.
One of the most intelligent women I’ve known is a bit nerdy and has quite the spectacular bustline. A close runner-up is less nerdy and not quite so busty but almost. Bosomy brainy women aren’t all that rare, and underestimating a woman just because she’s so buxom is foolish.
"Evil is now incredibly rich" and not a day older! Although, I guess, that might be something to do with spider venom, so they get a pass on that.
When Madame Web said, "Get your hands off Ma-dame spider!" I webbed my pants. It was almost as good as when Ben said, "Take your ass and Park'er right there!" or when Ezikiel said "I'm evil!!"
"I saw R2-D2 and I caught the Clap!"
I can't believe you got through that ending without using that Simpsons clip of Milhouse whining about a fireworks factory.

the friction line frustrates me more than it should. Its just that it's so unrelated to walking on the ceiling because friction only acts transverse to a plane and you can't use friction to walk on walls because the normal force is too low. It would've been a more effective smart science nerd line if she shouted: "i can't walk ceiling cause gravity go down!"

Yeah, I viewed Killmonger as a *believable* villian, because vengeful racism is absolutely a thing. But to genuinely find him sympathetic, the viewer would have to on some level agree with vengeful racism. So… I guess that film is useful for flushing out the people to be scared of.
Those people ironically are very vocal and are black supremacist. They make the KKK look like progressive Buddhist monks.

Bingo. I agree completely.
you can find a character sympathetic without sympathizing with every single aspect of their character. this is pretty obvious if you have any sort of critical thinking skills. not everything is a stark diactomy, even "good" characters can have terrible qualities.
Because of Madame Web, I now know who Sydney Sweeney is. And that made it all worthwhile.

The "how are you poisoning me?" was my favorite line in the movie. It's so bad.
I think there is an explanation for the newspaper midday print: the writers were very young in 2003, so they can not remember how printed newspapers work or they did not read them back then. So they think a printed paper is like the online vesion. Everytime there is a new article, they print and distribute a new version. And this is how the subway story is in the print later the same day.
