Sony's Spider-Man: Now a Part of the MCU; And Now Not Again; And Now Is Again

[The Twilight Mexican]

Hey, at least we know they're not completely crazy now.

 

[Tennyo]

I think we all saw that coming.

 

[Super Mario]

I'm glad they're not as desperate as I thought they were.

 

[Tetsujin]

Sony and Marvel discussed crossover

 

[Tennyo]

I just heard about that. Let this happen, Sony!

I mean seriously just stick to video games. :/

 

[Tennyo]

Rumor: Sony Japan is peeved and may force Sony Pictures to cut a deal to share Spider-Man.

Granted, this rumor is from the same people who claim the Aunt May movie was legit so take that as you will.

 

[Super Mario]

Apparently, a petition is being held to have Spidey have his homecoming with the big leagues at MCU. I implore you, spare the poor kid humiliation by the idiots of Sony and have him chill with Groot and Rocket Raccoon one day by signing this.

More stuff from the Sony hack

Can't say I condone hacks and shit but I have to admit it is highly interesting to see how these negotiations and corporate communication actually play out. =P

 

[Tennyo]

Same, but it does make me feel better about the possibility of a recast. It looks like Andrew was fed up with Sony's shit and wasn't afraid to show it. I'm sure he knew what he was doing.

 

[Tennyo]

It's fucking official you guys, holy shit.

I don't know how to feel about this.

Excited yet sad because this probably means no more Andrew but still!

 

[Ghost X]

I am not bothering to get excited yet, as much as I admittedly typed in all caps upon reading it .

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

Faith in Jesus restored.

 

[Tetsujin]

 

[Super Mario]

Haaa, I can go pray now, miracles do indeed happen.

New MCU film order: http://www.theverge.com/2015/2/10/8010259/marvel-moves-release-dates-because-spider-man

I'm wondering if we'll actually get Miles at some point now.

[Super Mario]

It would be fun to have Parker AND miles in one film though it brings Iron Man vibes to have Miles as Parker's besto friendo. I hope he does appear in Civil War, it would be fun.

 

[Tennyo]

I would love for that to happen.

Peter/Miles team up film, let's go!

 

[Super Mario]

I kinda like the idea as well, it would diverge from the comics wherein they're in separate universes but in the cinematic world they're best friends and got irradiated separately and a climactic confrontation with the sinister six forces them to team up to stop them. It would be cool.

 

[Tetsujin]

Although it's funny how we will get yet another reboot basically.

So I'm guessing Sinister Six is off the table now?

 

[Super Mario]

Along with that other garbage they've been 'promoting'.

 

[X-SOLDIER]

I'm kinda thinking that since Miles' catalyzing tragic "Uncle Ben" character is actually Peter Parker, the more comic-centric story route would still work. Backlash of the Civil War events could lead to a "Death of Spider-man" scenario since his enemies know who he is and where to find him, and they hunt him down. That works as the catalyst for Sony officially moving away from the Peter Parker story (which has already had 5 films in two continuities), and transition into Miles' story for the new Spidey films moving forward. Sure it means that you would get and lose ANOTHER new Peter Parker, but *shrugs* I think it'd be more than worth it.

Also, while I'm a little sad for Andrew Garfield, I'm simultaneously really glad that he & Emma Stone don't have a Spider-man film where they're not together in it.

Whatever you do Marvel, please bring back the Danny Elfman theme.

And JK Simmons as JJJ.

(not gonna happen but a man can wish)

Anyway, with Spidey appearing in an MCU movie before his next solo film, that pretty much only leaves Civil War as the only logical choice.
Civil War is really shaping up to be Avengers 2.5 at this rate.

 

[Tennyo]

This article agrees with you on Civil War

 

[Claymore]

Woah ... didn't think it would happen.
