    Wow. That's both incredibly surprising & incredibly exciting to me.

    Though, thinking about it, that does make sense. Amy Pascal is done at Sony. Iron Man is dead in the MCU. Venom & Into the Spider-Verse were both big successes. They can seemingly still use Tom Holland w/out Marvel Studios/Disney. Plus, Disney pushing for more ownership after acquiring Fox does fit the Disney brand. Also, I remember wondering after "phase 4" or whatever was announced how the Marvel Studios-produced, Sony-released films would fit Disney's growing schedule/monopoly.

    As someone both frustrated w/ Iron Man-ized Spidey & sick of Disney taking everything over, I dig it & am excited for the possible Tom Holland/Tom Hardy crossover. Though I generally like Kevin Feige & don't like Jon Watts, so possibly keeping the latter w/out the former could be rough.

    This has to be a negotiation ploy. No way would both parties fail so hard in getting together. This would screw Sony over more in the long run than Marvel/Disney. Give it a couple weeks before they announce they reached a deal.

    Tom said a couple years back that once Spider-Man is out of the MCU he’ll be out of the role. So if this stays Sony will have to recast, again.
     
  5. Going from a 5% per first dollar gross to 50/50 co-financing would screw Sony over more in the long run.

  6. I'd put good money on Tom Holland not turning down that Sony check.

    As if he couldn’t be successful with other roles making bank without signing a new contract with Sony.
     
  8. He’s not getting *that* check for other roles.

    This could effect things outside of the films which sucks. Since Sony bought insomniac, Marvel might be like nah, you’re not allowed to make a sequel to your game.

    Everyone getting mad at Sony just strikes me as ridiculous. If you want to be mad, you should at least be mad at the right people. Disney is a monopoly that thrives on being as controlling as possible. This is not a surprise.

    The tweets & blogs blaming Sony instead of the awful Disney monopoly juggernaut are gonna be so dumb, lol.

    And, Tom Holland once said he was signed on for 3 Spider-Man films & 3 Marvel films, so I wouldn't be surprised if he's already signed up for the next one regardless of Marvel Studios' involvement. And, it only takes one good experience w/out Feige for him to wanna keep going, especially if they make a big, like, Planet of the Symbiotes or something w/ all their live action Marvel properties. Holland would probably love to work w/ Hardy.

    i don't see arguing how this is dumb for sony at all. they get to keep 100% of the character now. so what if the movie doesn't make 800m, it's gonna make more than 400m lol

    it's dumb on the MCU's behalf considering now they are down to 0 characters for anyone to care about going forward

    I got Mysterio so I don't really care at this point. The only thing that will bother me is randomly having Peter no longer appear in the MCU. Talk about continuity disruption. Are they going to play it off that Peter is forever hiding due to his identity being revealed? Oh wait, they can't even mention that now. whoopsie.

    How long before the picture of Spidey being ripped apart trying to hold the Ferry together in Homecoming is used for a tug of war photo between Sony and Disney.

    I dunno about you but I am absolutely ready for a 4th Spidey reboot. I hope one happens each decade.

    “Deadline's sources state that two additional Spider-Man movies are in the works, and that actor Tom Holland and Homecoming and Far From Home director Jon Watts will still be participating. Producer Amy Pascal, who has worked on every Spider-Man film universe entry since Homecoming (including Venom and Spider-Verse) will also stay on.”

    it’s literally in the article lol. if his contract says he’s doing them, he’s doing them my man.

    I wonder which MCU films Disney will "coincidentally" schedule to release a week or two before Sony's Spider-Man films. F4?

    “The greatest teacher, failure is”

    I’m definitely in the minority that I’m kind of okay with this. As much as I didn’t like Venom and liked Spidey in the MCU, the MCU doesn’t need Spidey to be successful. 1. we were blessed to have him in for 5 movies. 2. It has so many characters especially with X-men and fantastic four and the slew of new heroes they are introducing.

    Where as in the long run Sony’s spiderverse needed Spidey. Which means another superhero universe with a different vision. Also rather than waiting years for Spider-Man movies while the MCU has to produce so many other characters, well be getting him more often.

    Just don’t fuck it up lol

    If they're not tied down to Marvel Studios' schedule anymore, wonder if they'll shoot for summer 2021, trying to keep that every other year pattern going. Though, with Doctor Strange in early May, Batman in late June, & Suicide Squad in early August, that'd be a tough crowd. Guess they could go for late May?

    2022 has untitled Marvel films slated for February (Black Panther 2?), May, & July, so if they wanna keep him as a summer blockbuster franchise, that could be a harder year to shoot for. Plus, Sony doesn't exactly have much else coming out in 2021 from what I can tell.
