Madame Web
If I found out that they had hired Tommy Wiseau (from The Room infamy) to do a dialogue pass on the script and to direct some of the scenes I wouldn’t be surprised. Will go down as one of the worst big budget movies ever made. Perfect for Mystery Science Theater 3000 and a mountain of fodder for Ryan George's Pitch Meeting and Cinema Sins. The most entertaining aspect by far was it’s radical ineptitude. There were multiple shots/scenes where it seemed like the editor used the practice shot and not the real one. The dialogue seemed like it had been written by a half bright middle schooler and the delivery of the dialogue by the actors made it seem like they had a bet to see who could deliver it the most like an initial table read for a Kirk Cameron version of the Star Wars prequels. All of the villain’s dialogue was ADR’d (recorded afterward in a sudio) but that isn’t even the worst part about it, his lines and the delivery of his lines were even more bizarre than the fact that the replaced all of his on set audio. I feel like one of the producers kids had the power to make decisions on this and after watching a screening of the movie demanded that the bad guy sound more like greasy haired Jon Claude Van Damne movie villain.
