What is a studio to do when they have the rights to a much beloved (very) 1990's comic book villain staple (co-created by none other than Todd MacFarlane - look at the guy, you can tell) BUT now the rights with Spider-Man - the one people kinda sorta *really* want to see - are sort of up in the air between one studio and another? When you got Tom Holland around as Peter Parker... what if you just don't, you know, use him and make your villain movie solo? But wait, what if you can get world-class actors like Tom Hardy and Michelle Williams (and maybe not quite world-class but still good ones like Riz Ahmed and Jenny Slate)?
Um...
WE don't know what was in their minds making this movie, but was it actually *good*? Special Guest Star Matthew Catania (of the blog Matt THE Catania, link below) joins Jack to discuss and dissect this weird symbiote of a Hollywood product. Oh, and up front with you all, the "turd in the wind" will be discussed up front.

Other clip is from the SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN cartoon.
