Second just behind “Morbius” in the “formidable horrible films on characters who are only relevant because they have links with Spider-Man” category, “Madame Web” seemed to be one of the last films in the era of superheroes when he arrived in 2024. Deeply hated by the critics and only tolerated by the figure Spireds of Dakota Johnon Sweeney and Isabela Merced), Web “initially seemed to have trouble passing the milestone of the $ 100 million box office. Although he finally ended up barely cleaning this obstacle, his production budget of $ 80 million means that it was a solid flop – both commercially and critical.

All this almost certainly contributed to the apparent death of the Spider-Man universe of Sony (SSU), which was strangely silent since “Kraven the Hunter” fell (and failed) in 2024. With the Sony Superhero franchise, which was struck after being struck “Madame Web” Bucket Popcorn with many MCU jokes. Decided to pump the breaks on the excess connection MCU / SSU teasing long before this film was even in the first.
The news of the popcorn bucket “Madame Web” canceled and from a similar themed cup from Reddit, where the images of these products are also available for visualization.

The Mrs. Web Popcorn canceled bucket is very fun in the MCU
At the end of the day, it is not very difficult to understand why the powers to have opted against the buckets and the cups of popcorn. Their conceptions revolve around the emblematic Marvel Daily Bugle newspaper, with titles that refer to many characters with deep MCU connections. In a title, Stark Industries of Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is called to provide inadequate financial remuneration to its workers. In another, Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) embarks on a new career as a magician of Las Vegas. Elsewhere, the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) is accused of using steroids, while “Spider-Man 2” and “Spider-Man: No Way Way” the bad Doc Ock (Alfred Molina) opens a new clinic. On the cosmic side of things, the headlines mention the new Groot talk show (Vin Diesel), explore cults and theories around Thanos (Josh Brolin), the media threshing of an interview with a drax dressed in the form of Drax (Dave Bautista), a future American president. There is even a story about Thor’s alleged illegitimate child (Chris Hemsworth).

The conceptions, so legitimate, are in fact quite impressive … But, like U / Chemistry11 of self that it was noted later in the wire, the most likely reason for their scurfing is also the most obvious. Sony has only the cinematographic rights on the Marvel characters who are connected to Spider-Man, so there is absolutely no way that Disney does not feel in the slightest thought that Sony makes fun of several MCU characters established which are well outside the competence of the company. For this reason, the big titles of Blooking Daily Bugle probably spent Doom for buckets and cups, the second person who knew the situation of the rights of the character saw his conceptions.
