MG in the media
Feeling conflicted having just watched Madame Web on Netflix. Good to have main stream exposure, but I believe like most streams a bit of misinformation. I hope the attempt was to bring MG exposure, and was a bread crumb for more inquisitive minds to follow further.
Hi
, I also recently watched Madame Web and completely agree with you. I also hope the attempt was to bring more exposure to MG but I felt the execution could have been much better. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Best, Allison (Team Member) I was not going to watch this as I definitely have super hero movie fatigue after the last 10 years. I mean I love ironman but I'm tired of the origin superhero movies now..... Need a break. I may check out madame Web and report back 😛. Do you think it misrepresented MG and in what way? There's so little MG in the media on the whole. So poorly understood. Shortly after I was diagnosed with MG there was an episode of doc Martin (a British medical comedy drama) where someone with MG does something ridiculous... I didn't watch it but it worried my parents somewhat unnecessarily.
If I'm honest I find some websites written media that talk about MG often misrepresent it as well. Often well meaning though.I hear you and agree. MCU is not as entertaining when it first came out. No more guidance from Stan Lee. Madame Web was trashed in the ratings and I see why. Regarding MG I came away thinking the diagnosis was a death sentence. I don't know if that's how it played out in the 80's comic book, but in today's understanding, not so. The reveal just had me do a double take.
