Marvel has hit a new low with the immensely underwhelming performance of Madame Web. The film was ranked lower than Morbius in both ticket sales and critical acclaim. Forgettable characters and lack of action were topped off with subpar performances from the actors making for quite a disaster. A good plot could have helped, but the Dakota Johnson feature lacked that as well. As an extension of the Spider-Man films, Madame Web was a highly anticipated movie.
But it left many disappointed. Moreover, it revealed an arc from the history of Peter Parker’s life- a history that some fans had a hard time stomaching. The film broke a little too many hearts of Marvel fans across the globe—something one wouldn’t expect from a Valentine’s Day release.

Edinburgh University has said it is “disappointed” after it was forced to cancel the screening of a film that examines the clash between female rights and transgender ideology.
Adult Human Female, an independent feature from Reality Matters, was due to be screened on Wednesday, but Edinburgh University halted the event after trans rights advocates staged a protest outside the Gordon Aikman Lecture Theatre.
It is the second time the screening has been canceled after Ucu Edinburgh, the university union, derailed a similar event last December because it could be “detrimental to the safety and wellbeing of LGBT staff.”
Jk Rowling was among those who noted Wednesday’s cancelation, retweeting criticism from Kathleen Stock, an academic who resigned as a Sussex University professor in 2021 amid a trans rights row.
“Ucu Edinburgh, helping stop the screening of a film on their own campus. Academic freedom of thought is just of no interest to these people.
