You're looking too hard for a controversy that isn't there. This is a Sony live-action Spiderman adjacent film. All of them have been terrible. Madam Web is terrible too.

People criticized Venom, Venom 2, Morbius, and now Madame Web. People will probably criticize the solo Kraven movie whenever that comes out too. It's not a conspiracy against women, it's that Sony seems to fundamentally not understand how to make a good superhero flick.

It's not limited to non-Spiderman either. ASM and ASM2 were trash as well.

Sony hasn't had a good Spider-Man movie since Spider-Man 2 in 2004.

Into the Spiderverse was pretty stellar though, and Across the Spiderverse was a good sequel. I'd say both are on par with the original Sam Reimi trilogy, with the caveat that they are fully animated productions instead of live-action.
