I know what will get audiences excited about Spidey again....Jeff fuckin Nathanson

[samsha22]

Sony might be trying to cash in on this franchise as much as they can (movies every 2 years for next 10 years and give the rights back to disney.  Superhero movies might be the current BO flavour. But who know what will sell in the next decade. It can be westerns or monster features or Sci Fi or whatever

[Chewy]

One of the problems is that all of the films are set in New York. Franchises that run for a long time tend to mix things up with all kinds of exotic locations, Spidey's pretty much stuck in NYC.

I want a RIO or Dubai spidey..spider man on top of Burj Khalifa will sell for sure...

Spidey's more limited than other franchises in that regard since he needs a whole bunch of skyscrapers to swing around. There are only so many cities that could work

He doesn't have to be. I don't know if the comics take him out of NYC ever, but even if they don't who cares? The movies should.

He could go to London.

Hong Kong...

Imagine someone posting this on BOM back in 2004. "That's a good result for Spider-Man 2, not far off the original at the domestic box office. However, a Thor movie has a good shot of one day boasting a bigger domestic box office then a Spider-Man movie."

Des Moines, Iowa is the answer.

The NYC setting isn't so much the problem as Sony not knowing what direction to take the franchise in. They are out of ideas. Also, they don't have other superheroes to cross-over with Spider-Man. Sony is milking every last bit of milk out of the utter at the moment.

It can be hills or trees as well..They should think out of the box.

[MovieMan89]

Hong Kong...

HK or Shanghai would be awesome. Been to both Shanghai and NYC, Shanghai is every bit of a skyscraper playground as the latter.

Des Moines, Iowa is the answer.

 

Clearly.

[Dementeleus]

Keep Spidey in NY. I don't see why he has to move. 

[CJohn]

Nah, America already sent them Gerard Butler after he saved the White House to save whatever the fuck is falling in London. They don't need Spider-Man.

If he does not move, audience will move to screen-2 playing neighbours.

LMAO, now that's when you know Spidey franchise is reaching rock bottom.

Response in 2004: Who's Thor? You think a movie about Norse mythology will ever have a chance at out-grossing Spider-Man?

[DAR]

Spidey in Milwaukee.  Or else I could wait for the Great Lakes Avengers movie to be made.
