Marvel Cinematic Universe | We had a good run, and now it's over

eh, I believe they'll reach a compromise, and probably within the next few months, but I have a hard time believing they'd resolve the impasse in time for D23
Can you post some tweets? I've only seen that James Oliver(sp?) guy saying it's over.
Sony called up Marvel and said "aight we'll cancel Morbius."
...
"Deal."
new Deadline article, doesn't sound good, sky is falling, everyone panic, etc.
err... so now the story is Disney start at 25% and later up to 50% when they feel it's not going to work (why would they do that) instead of starting at 50% before dropping to 30 or 25%
the story keep changing every time an article is coming out

Those people aren't insiders and even 'real' insiders have no credibility on any of this. Negotiations between Marvel and Sony lingering on for months, but how many Twitter insides ever had anything to say about it? Then the story breaks this week and suddenly a dozen different Twitter randos have the inside scoop on what's been going on in these meetings? The bullshit is so transparent.
yeah, figured as much. Too good to be true.
Not a single one of these "Sources" has any cred
It's almost as if no one has a clue except the people at Disney and Sony.
First Spider-Man's out and now Ms. Marvel's solo series is delegated to the small screen. I thought this week was supposed to bring good news.
Kit Harington cast in mystery (but probably not for much longer) MCU role
Has anyone ever commented on why Chris Pratt gets a "with Chris Pratt" in the Endgame credits? Most of the others make sense but his.
that's not what they seem to be teasing, not that it matters much either way
in all likelihood, hardly anyone outside high-level Sony and Marvel/Disney execs does for sure. lotta folks just need to calm down for a bit imo
Holy fuck yes, a Ms Marvel show! She will get a whole show, and appear in the movies. It's more than we could have dreamed of. And damn, ever since Richard Madden joined I've been secretly hoping for Kit Harrington to join since he's my favorite Stark on GoT and here he is! What a day for Marvel fans!

Hopefully it has some nice budget (I mean, it will of course). She's definitely making the jump to the films, so it's exciting that we're getting our first taste of a character through a show, say, 6 hours long.
Pour one out for our boys Matt and Wilson.
would be funny in a cruel-joke sort of way if THR misreported it and this show is actually from Marvel Television, though Feige has said he wants to use the character so I doubt that's the case
Like assuming she does get a movie, this is the best of both worlds for me, TV allows for a character to get further fleshed out compared to a movie.
Jessica too
Yea I remember that sort of

Me. marvel has a creative lead and showrunner, things like that aren't done over night for a TV show especially for something as big as Disney+.
The Marvel Studios shows are going to get a good budget and the care that the movies get. And Kamala will still get to appear on the big screen since she's in a Marvel Studios production. And we don't have to wait as long for her to make an apperance limited only to movies since she's a second gen hero to Carol. And she'll have plenty of time to develop her character. More than the two hour limit each movie has.
... Why are we saying this is bad news?

Because people feel like she is "relegated." I was afraid this was gonna be the new norm as soon as they expanded to Disney+ shows.
It's so cool that we'll get at least six hours of her debuting in a show. It'll give us much more downtime seeing her daily routines and family practices expanded on. We can dwell on it so much more than a mere two hour film ending with a third act action scene. And then there'll be more time to celebrate when she crosses over to the movies too. Hopefully then she does get a solo film, and not only cameos, so that Muslim audiences gets to celebrate on a big scale like was seen with Black Panther and soon Shang-Chi.
I'm also quite indifferent to the whole Spidey deal. I never wanted him to lead the frontline of the MCU but I do want him to interact with the larger universe, although the Stark-connection could be a bit too much at times, I also feel like they were finally over that edge with the end of Far From Home. While I feel Sony have made better films with Raimi's two first Spidey flicks, and done better action and production with the ASM duo, it's still a bummer. I'm hopeful Sony and Disney will figure out a deal eventually so haven't spent my energy on this.

Something is off with all of these reports.
So now they are saying that Disney offered 25% as their initial offer? And that was just for the movies they produced, not equity in the license/franchise? And then they went up to 50% because Sony wasn't accepting 25%, hummm what?
And to make things look even more off.....the other report was saying Rothman was willing to give up 25%.
So if Disney wanted 25% for just the films they produced and for the duration of the contract and if Rothman was willing to give up 25% presumably for the same.....then what's the issue?
Besides the fact they are not seeing eye to eye and are going their separate ways I am taking all these reports with a HUGE grain of salt.

Maybe they wanted 25% of the spinoffs too and Sony wasn't willing to give that up? I don't know, this whole ordeal is pretty confusing.
That report specifically says 25% only of the movies that Marvel Studios and Feige had a hand in. At this point I think these reporters are making shit up to see what sticks. One of them has to be correct.
The Deadline article said Disney's offer stood for "half a year". That implies that Disney asked for the 25% deal way before Far From Home. Then the movie released and totally blew passed everyone's expectations, most likely changing Disney's attitude about the deal and feeling they were now entitled for more if this was the kind of numbers Spidey was gonna start pulling.
Which would be a pretty shrewd move if so. "Quality doesn't come cheap" and all that I guess. Sounds like Sony should've closed the deal earlier.
sorry y'all, come at me if you must but I'm super happy Kamala is being introduced in a series and not a movie. her origin story is perfect for a series.
Feige is spending blockbuster-level money shooting these series. With the right Director and DP, these will look as good as movies while getting room to breathe.
