@3m18s “they talked A LOT about diversity”

ah, what a brave new world, where empowered females have to scrounge from IPs established by men to have a shred of success.

Another story of corporate greed will deprive us of the great rendition of Spider-Man that we finally got, with Sony putting its head up its ass once again.

it looks like Sony will bet on crossing Spider-Man and Venom, which is something fans want, but Peter Parker will be completely absent from any future Avengers movie... and they won't be even able to mention his name.

Hopefully they can get their shit together for Phase 5 when a big event that would cross Avengers and X-Men could take place.

Sony made a BUNCH of money with the game, spiderverse and far from home. So, they're realising that spiderman is huge again, so it kinda makes sense they wanna hold on to that property.

I for one, am kinda happy to see other players in the "hero movie" field tho, I hate to see Marvel dominating it so much, which means they'll just stay formulaic with their movies, which is bad.

Well yeah, they made money and they can’t/won’t give credit.

They are milking a cow that is alive and kicking because Marvel/Disney lent producers to supervise the properties and give them a new life, Kevin Feige in particular, and they are not even credited. It was worth to give the fans what they wanted, it’s admirable and I’m really surprised they made the arrangement in the first place. Now they are trying to cash back some… and I mean not for free, Disney wants to co-produce by putting money in the Sony movies.

Also it’s arguable that Spider-Man is doing so well because of the crossovers in Avengers movies: people expect spidy movies to move forward the overall narrative.

I do agree on the principle of competition, but that can/should be done with their own IPs. Find other comics that haven’t been given justice if you are so confident.

It’s convenient to ride the wave when someone paddles you out to sea. Btw it sounds like Marvel has the videogame rights so Sony is not getting the whole cake.

Anyway after such a shitstorm there have already been rumours of “its still negotiable”, so we’ll see. Marvel clearly was prepared to the possibility since Phase 4 doesn’t have crossover titles but mostly new characters.

First Black Widow trailer

I am waiting for this actually:

Gutted the release moved to March.

Also it was confirmed that Spider-Man “3” will introduce the multiverse in the most classic depiction, with both McGuire and Garfield’s versions of Spider-Man appearing, along with some baddies like Electro and best of all, Molina’s Doc Oc.

We were scrounging Didney+ from friends that are just cancelling it now, so can watch a couple of episodes only

 

[D3ads]

Just started re-watching the films again in more or less chronological order, it's weird watching the first Captain America then Captain Marvel and then Iron Man, over a decade of time difference...

Wow, I’m negatively impressed by how a show that is only 6 episodes long does nothing to establish the villains and their motives in the first two episodes.

The only thing that is said is that the “baddies” want “a world United without borders”… since when that’s a bad thing!?

[blackdog]

Marvel doesn’t break the Internet anymore, or am I just off the news cycle that I find this stuff accidentally 

 

[dux]

No one cares anymore. It's too much. I tapped out after end game.

[Vilham]

You can always count on Dux to come in with some positivity. 

[FMPONE]

He’s right tho.

But, if they did a very good Dr. Doom movie, that could rope me back in…

I'm surprised you made it to end game... the last avengers I've watched was the first one. I'm officially too old for this super hero bullshit.
