EW: Kevin Feige and Tom Holland talk Spider-Man
- Thread starter Halbrand
- Start date
Have Miles replace Tom's Peter live action?
They could, I guess. I don't see it happening though. Tom is still really young
Disney should introduce Niles Norales as the completely original superhero Arachnid-Guy.
Basically, trying to continue Holland Spider-man without mcu is messy. Just let him stay in MCU, but like Hulk, show up in other movies with no stand alone Spider-man movies.
Meanwhile, use Miles Morales in Venomverse movies instead of Peter Parker to avoid confusion
I honestly think Sony should take Disney's offer for Tom Holland movies and use Miles as the anchor for their Sony-Marvel Universe. If they are as good at making Spiderman movies as they think they are, I don't think there's anything to lose - provided the cast the right Miles.
Doesn't Tony have lore screen time than anyone else in the movie? :p
I don't trust Sony to really handle Miles, plus I'm sure Feige had long term plans for Miles.
But yeah, I'd take that over no Spider-Man in the MCU at all
at what point will they come to a final agreement or disagreement? either way there has to be a spiderman 3...
They can't take too long. MCU is scheduled for the future already, Spidey needs to keep up
I wouldn't be shocked if Marvel doesn't want to be obligated to put a new Spider-Man movie out every two years either. They've been doing every 3-4 years for the sequels recently.
I mean, everything Spiderman belongs to Sony and they rightfully want to cash out. They simply aren't going to give Disney everything, so I'd take what I can get. And Tbh, there isn't enough room in Disney's calendar to make enough Spiderman content to fully realize the IPs potential.
Spider-verse was excellent, So there's potential. Sony needs to get their own Feige to handle their Marvel IP.

Just the movie rights , which is why marvel still makes comics and tv shows
Without proof, you ain't seen shit guy lmao.
There is no line for me. If Disney keeps gaining because people want to see their movies in theaters more than anyone else's, who gives a shit? Consumption trends have changed. Competition is ideal, but the competition needs to step it up on offering experiences people are enticed to spend money on to have in theaters vs. waiting for release on streaming services.
Pretty much.
I'm not about to wring my hands over Marvel Studios having tapped into how best to keep audiences engaged in a time when they otherwise might not even care much about going out to see movies.
There is nothing stopping rival studios from having the same success.
This idea fucking sucks.
I'd rather they kill him off screen than relegate him to support only. Spider-Man is a star, dammit.

So you'd have no issue with Disney owning 100% of the market then?
Wow.
Yeah, we're talking about movies... I shoulda been more clear..
One of the themes of the MCU is about the continuity between one movie to another. It would be jarring for a new Spiderman movie to stop referencing the MCU, but it wouldn't be impossible.
In some ways, I would actually prefer that, since I would like to see the franchise branch off into newer things. I didn't like the way Vulture and Mysterio tied back to the rest of the MCU, so having something like Osborn or Kraven as something separate would be a breath of fresh air.
You're probably the only one here fool enough to believe that to be a possibility.
They should do Spider-Gwen (Ghost-Spider is a terrible name) for the Venom-verse. That would actually be super interesting and could lead to some fun stuff, and no one would really give a shit if they did whatever they wanted with the source material. They could go in fun and original directions. And then they would have another spider to play with for the inevitable multiverse team up movie with Holland. Unfortunately it makes too much sense so Sony would never do it.
Also whatever you do, DO NOT TYPE "ghost spider venom" into google images. Shit is nasty. "Gwenom" is what you need to search to get Gwen with the symbiote.
It's a theoretical question.
But good to know you would support an actual monopoly.
Of course I wouldn't.
I didn't think anyone here was stupid enough to require me to note there is no possible line for me, but alas.
The movie industry will never be a monopoly, and only an idiot would surmise as much.

Honestly
They've got too much in the arsenal to be spoiling the fun by yanking peter Parker.
Sony still has a say on the movies date, hence why back when Phase 4 was announced, June-July was open.
Ah, back to childish insults. Truly the most enlightened and intelligent poster on this board with a level head.
I can see why Disney films appeal so much to you.
Sony has live-action TV rights. The only thing Disney has is animation rights. It would have to be a half-hour animated series or nothing, essentially.
You're also being very aggressive and antagonistic. This thread is way too hostile for a movie series, take a break and chill out. I fell victim to this too earlier and now I feel silly. At least we all agree Spiderman being ejected from the MCU is a bummer regardless of the context.
I don't agree at all. I'm happy that Spider Man is out of the MCU.
At least you're finally being honest.
You don't care about competition in the film industry. You just look down on Disney movies and those who enjoy them.
That's your prerogative, I guess.
all i can think about are those sony emails from years ago
yes people at that level that deal with that much money can be that dumb

Dude is constantly in Disney threads losing his shit, it's funny.
User Banned (5 days): antagonizing other users, history of similar behavior
I didnt know speaking on a subject and disagreeing with the hive mind was defined as losing my shit.
Sorry I disagree. I wasnt aware people with differing view points weren't allowed to talk about a subject .All hail Disney!
Actually I do. I see 52 films a year at the theatre. I care deeply about it.
But if you're going to reply with snark instead of discussing things like a normal person I return the favour.
I've seen you around long enough to know you just look down on Disney and their output.
Which, again, is your prerogative. As is accusing people of supporting monopolies.
Accuse? I asked you a question. You said their was no line and you have no issue if Disney dominates the market. You literally said it yourself then got mad about it for some reason.
The chaos of it appeals to me. Plus, with the almost certain prospect of X-men coming to the MCU, the quality is gonna tank and they're probably move away from the space sci-fi thing they've had going on, and it'll all lose its appeal to me anyway.
In your mind "dominating the market"="monopoly"? Troubling.
Again, I didn't think it was necessary to emphasize there's no actually possible line they could cross for me. Disney will never be a fucking monopoly, so give me a break with this shit.
I prefer Spider Man on his own, just like I do Batman. I like them having self contained stories in their own worlds. I like Holland as Spidey But I havent enjoyed at all how deeply entwined he is in the MCU and Stark. I'm happy to see him get a chance to stretch his legs on his own for once. I've found his character in the MCU to be as dull as sin, but I dont fault Holland for that.
See the issue is those things you're complaining about? The entwiness with Stark and the MCU? That's was pushed by Sony.
Any company dominating a single market to the detriment of other companies is not healthy for that industry.
I would feel the exact same if it Was Sony or Universal or WB.
The fact Disney gets rewarded for cynical corporate cash grabs like Lion King is just icing on the cake and adds to my distaste of the situation. They arent out here releasing cinematic master pieces blowing away the competition with quality.
I want all the companies to thrive, not for one to just become increasingly more powerful.
But you only seem to watch Disney films so you dont seem to give a shit or even acknowledge it as any type of issue. But you do you.
And thats fine. I understood the why. What better way to boost his box office than make iron man such a big piece?
But now that he is out they cant rely on that anymore and that interests me far more than anything I saw in homecoming or far from home. Seeing yet another disgruntled Stark enemy was not at all interesting and not what I want from spidey flick.
So like I said, I'm happy as fuck he's gone.
why does it matter that Vulture and Mysterio have a beef with Stark? The alternative is having them have a beef with Scientist/Movie Executive You Won't Bother To Remember The Name Of after their origin issue.
Like are folks forgetting that all of Spidey villains are either disgruntled Oscorp employees, disgruntled Oscorp competitors or just common crooks? Sony/Fiege were smart to pivot most of the villain origins over to Stark since the Green Goblin character needed a rest.
My favorite version of Spider-Man ( Spectacular) is just Pete having to clean up the messes Norman made and all the villains getting annoyed that this kid is in the way.
