Spiderman is [no longer] out of the MCU
https://deadline.com/2019/08/kevin-f...er-1202672545/
It was fun while it lasted, but Sony once again is stupid and has cancelled this deal. Might as well call it Sony hates money. |

In the good news, this separation means I will never have to endure another minute of Venom. What a crap movie that was. Now if we can somehow cut Deadpool out the MCU will be nearly perfect.

Everyone always says how bad Venom was but it made a billion dollars. I thought it was decent.

Spider-Man: FFH grossed $1.1 billion with a budget of $160 million. Would you rather have 100% of that or 50%? Spider-Man is a 1000 ft tent pole and now it looks like Venom may be as well. Even if the other movies are money losers, Sony will still have a profitable franchise by far. |

I think this will be a bigger lose for Disney if the deal falls through.

Curious what the numbers were on the Garfield Spiderman movies. I thought those were bad, although not as bad as McGuires Spiderman 3. That franchise is bulletproof if they made anything close to the last two. To me, adding Spidey to the MCU brought what was becoming a forgettable franchise back from the dead.

Rumors that something could be announced at d23 regarding Spiderman.
Also Ms. Marvel, She Hulk and Moon Knight announced streaming series! On Disney+ So pumped. Ms. Marvel confirmed to show up in a future movie. |

IMO,;the Spider-Man Franchise is dead in the water especially if they have to do a soft reboot/retcon.

I know, I'm going to save my money and not see the next installment if it's strictly Sony involvement

In the comics Ms. Marvel is an Inhuman, but it would make a lot of sense to make her a mutant instead. Sidestep all the TV baggage of the Inhumans and let her be the introduction of mutants into the MCU.
