Sonys vidare satsningar på ett eget Spider-verse har inte gått helt enligt planerna, och senaste filmen Madame Web har som de flesta av er nog vet, sågats längs fotknölarna. Fans likväl som press har inte sparat på gliringarna och många beskriver den som den sämsta superhjältefilmen i världshistorien.
Det verkar inte heller som att Dakota Johnson, som bekant spelar huvudrollen i filmen, hade det värst kul under inspelningen. För i en ny intervju med Bustle beskriver hon upplevelsen som något hon aldrig vill tvingas genomlida igen.
"I had never done anything like it before. I probably will never do anything like it again, because I don't make sense in that world. And I know that now. But sometimes in this industry, you sign on to something, and it's one thing and then as you're making it"
"It becomes a completely different thing, and you're like, 'Wait, what?' But it was a real learning experience, and of course it's not nice to be a part of something that's ripped to shreds, but I can't say that I don't understand."
Johnson nämner också hur filmers innehåll i allt större utsträckning verkar dikteras av kommittéer. Något hon finner otroligt olustigt.
"It's so hard to get movies made, and in these big movies that get made — and it's even starting to happen with the little ones, which is what's really freaking me out — decisions are being made by committees, and art does not do well when it's made by committee"
"Films are made by a filmmaker and a team of artists around them. You cannot make art based on numbers and algorithms. My feeling has been for a long time that audiences are extremely smart and executives have started to believe that they're not."
"Audiences will always be able to sniff out bullshit. Even if films start to be made with AI, humans aren't going to fucking want to see those."
Håller du med vad Johnson säger, och har du själv sett Madame Web?
