There Was A Time Before Marvel Was Hollywood’s Golden Child
With critical praise and box-office success, Spider-Man: Homecoming is another success for the Marvel. Not just the MCU but for the brand as a whole. In theory, when one does well so do the others. But the same can be said about failures. Sometimes one major mistake can trickle down and hurt others.
This list will be a mix of entire films, franchises, or moments that stink up the joint. Buckle up because this will be a bumpy ride.
6. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)
– It’s hard to pinpoint the exact thing that made The Amazing Spider-Man 2 flop. Again, the movie suffers from too many villains and too much of a “cheese” factor. While Andrew Garfield delivers another memorable performance, it couldn’t help anything. This movie saw so much hate that it forced Sony to reboot the franchise again this year.
The worst offender in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is Jamie Foxx as Electro. Blaming the script is easy as everything here is garbage. But Foxx is known to elevate any weak material, so it’s sad to see him lost in the shuffle. Add in the fact that he’s the weakest villain out of any Spider-Man movie and it’s safe to say Jamie Foxx won’t be returning to superhero movies anytime soon.
