If it comes to it, it'll be a bit sad watching Sony destroy a thing that's been built up over the last two movies. Though it wouldn't be the first time they've torn a thing they've had success with in the third movie.

Right, it also means 0 quality control from Marvel, which is arguably a bigger change than the characters they are able to use, if you want to parcel it out.

And yeah, I totally understand the sentiment that it's a bad thing for Marvel to no longer be involved. It scares me too. But, why do you leave out "Into The Spider-Verse" as proof that Sony can produce good films? I know the animation medium is different, but I don't believe that is reason to discount it as a well made Spider-Man film produced by Sony. The producer's role is largely the same in both instances.

And I'm not saying "all praise Into the Spider-Verse" either. It's not even my favorite Spider-Man movie, but I honestly found it way more entertaining then Captain Marvel, Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Ant-man & The Wasp, or Dr. Strange. All which are recent Marvel films, which bored me to tears.

That right there leads me to believe that Marvel is plenty capable of delivering boring films and Sony is capable of delivering great ones.

Marvel is the safe bet. The much safer bet. I hope a deal is worked out. But don't you get a at least a little excited about the possibility of Sony pulling a Fox Studios and bringing in an awesome director to give us a film to the caliber of "Logan" (something I don't think the MCU has been able to do yet, as wonderful as it is)?
Imagine an A-list director coming in, with a slightly smaller budget, slightly less sutido interferrance, and delivering a moody vision of "Kraven's Last Hunt"? That's just one possibility, but there are doors that open, with Marvel stepping aside.

Anyway, I don't mean to nag at your position. I'm just picking your brain a bit.
