Blind Justice in: "Blindsided!"

 

Blind Justice is back for their third appearance on the blog!  I still have not seen Madame Web.  are there any redeeming factors to that movie at all, or should I just skip it altogether?

Blind Justice? What a pleasant surprise! It's been a long time since we last saw them. About the same length of time , in fact, since we last heard from the Silent Partners!

As for Madame Web? It's a lot like the Halle Berry version of Catwoman. Suitably action-packed, if you're looking to kill a dull afternoon; but otherwise forgettable. In retrospect, however, it's sort of a prequel to "Capt. America: Civil War" in that it depicts Mary Parker giving birth to infant Peter with the help of his Uncle Ben (paramedical partner of young Cassie Webb)! It also introduces the Peruvian Spider Clan from "Amazing Spider-Man Annual 2001.

There's only one reason to watch that truly dreadful movie: Sydney Sweeney!


.... or does that count as two? 🤔

Being a Marvel fan needs a reminder of their range. And like all the mutants and Spidy, Matt suddenly loses his powers. Cool beans.

I'm not 100% sure. But, I think that means Isabella Merced is a perfect 10. :-)

I found Madame Web to be quite enjoyable, as long as one focuses on the title character and doesn't expect it to turn into Spider-Women.

You know, I feel like having Blind Justice meet the Silent Partners could get… interesting. What do you think?

And I still haven't watched Madame Web either, I actually keep forgetting that it exists.

I haven't seen Madame Web either, but from what I've heard...yeah, I'd recommend skipping it.

Like the man said: time-killing, but forgettable.

It's still way better compared to the Czech-made reboot of Resident Evil that just came out today I speak from first-hand experience as one of only _10_ people in the theater during the Opening Day matinee!

@Anon657: Oh, yeah! That's definitely not a good sign. :-(

How about adding the blind cab driver from Alan Moore's Top Ten?

And while we're at it, why not a group of cab drivers? Offhand, besides the one already mentioned, there's Shrevie from the Shadow, Space Cabbie, Ebony White from The Spirit (go for the version from Darwyn Cooke's run rather than the old-school version), and ... I'm sure there must be others?

They could be called something like "Fare's Fair."

Art thou forgetting Moon Knight's Jake Lockley persona?

Marc Spector probably has.

I liked Madame Web although she didn't once remember the character in the comics I remember.
It was the start of a low budget superhero movie, though it was clicheed and girlpower nonsense. It wasn't bad, really.
