Spider-Man belongs and ONLY belongs to Sony and yes that includes Tom Holland’s version who was cast by them in the first place. He works for Sony. Sony allowing Disney to use him in avengers is irrelevant.. I’ve already addressed why that doesn’t change anything in the posts below.
Believe what you want but my actual point is NWH’s success has little to do with what’s happening in the MCU. The characters from previous successful Sony Spider-Man movies is what made NWH a success. Outside of that if you look at disney/marvel movies in 2021 whether it’s eternals or Shang-chi they didn’t generate anything like the hype or success.
Who owns the rights to Spider-Man?
Sony Pictures
Sony Pictures own, finance, distribute, and exercise final creative control over the Spider-Man films.
He is a cameo, the title of the movie should spell it out for you. He’s only there briefly as a plot device to open the portal then Spider-Man literally removes him from his movie. Now Spider-Man’s friend has the portal powers so he served his purpose.
NWH is a Sony film. Sony doesn’t release MCU flicks. Just because two Disney characters cameo in Sony’s spider-verse that doesn’t change that just like when Sony let’s Spider-Man cameo in the MCU films like the avengers it doesn’t suddenly make them Sony films.
The last Dr Strange opened to $85m and finished on $232m 6 years ago.. You really think cameos and inflation will get close to the last films final run on opening weekend?
We’ve not actually had a “MCU film” open above 100 million yet since the pandemic so I think this prediction is spot on.
NWH was “Sony’s Spider-Verse” movies of Spider-Men and villains bringing in three movies worth of fans and hype.
Yes but whoever is making the decisions to make every film get 45’d in 2022 obviously hasn’t learnt there lesson from making every film a HBOMAX day and date release in 2021. They’ve shot themselves in both feet now by not making it a case by case basis after the disaster last year.
They all do this but the difference is this movie literally comes out on streaming in a coupe of weeks so trying to convince people to sit through 3 hours again when it’s that close is basically like trying to have you cake and eat it.
Well I would also think not but apparently shareholder aren’t pleased with the low Disney plus subs and it’s stock level from previous quarter so I don’t think it’s impossible.
This tweet is kinda scraping the bottom of the barrel comparing a 2022 batman film to films like shrek 3, the first iron man or transformers from over decade ago.. inflation corrected this comparison looks silly.
It’s already giving me a headache just trying to understand what he’s mumbling to Batman. And this scene is supposed to be better than what replaced it in the movie? No way I could sit through 3 hours of this. Definitely kept thinking he’s overacting through the whole thing.
