Sony Pictures Entertainment Brings Marvel Studios Into The Amazing World Of Spider-Ma

[CyberCubed]

The point is this is the first time Spiderman will be in the Marvel universe, so of course it will be Peter.

Had we had a series of successful Spiderman movies with Miles being introduced in a spinoff that would have been another story.

Even younger Peter Parker, and Sony's plans for a female spin-off are still on. Fiege won't be involved in any of those ideas either.

Malibu Stacey. New hat.

It could probably get away with being a soft reboot.

Sony is still moving forward with the Sinister Six, Venom, And More, The Amazing Spider-Man 3 is canceled.

Pretty awesome that Feige is producing the Sony Spidey flick without collecting a fee. He really wants Spidey in the MCU.

This is disappointing. The MCU is gonna be so cluttered now, especially Cap 3. Thor 3 and Captain Marvel getting pushed back several months pisses me off. And now the Inhumans movie will be after part 2 of Avengers 3... completely disinterested in that now.

I mean, I get why people are excited but I've already seen Spider-Man team up with the Avengers in cartoons and comics. Don't HAVE to see it in live action.

Also kinda bummed about the Amazing universe, I liked the Spidey movies and was interested in the crazy spinoff ideas.

Nope, nope, nope...... Peter's biggest appeal has ALWAYS been that he's the "everyman" hero. He's not super good-looking. (He's been described many times as "average". And his physical description actually accents that. His hair is brown, eyes are hazel or brown, depending on the artist. Just- unremarkable. Not "really cute" or "buff". He's also the kind of guy who can blend in with a crown easily due to having an unremarkable face with no memorable features.) Nor is he "buff". (In fact, he' very lean, just well-toned. His weight is listed as 175. Let that sink in. He's very slim, for a male.) He's also a bit on the short side for a guy- 5'10". There are lots of WOMEN out there taller than Spidey! Artists have depicted him as being somewhat good-looking at times, but his features are always very "normal" without a lot of unusual traits to have to draw in. His most trademark feature is arguably his hair, which has usually had that little Jerry-curl in front. Other than that, he's not really much of a "hunk" type of hero, unlike Thor, Cap, or Even Tony Stark, all of whom are seen as "handsome" in the comics.

Every Spider-Man movie so far has been pretty bad so I hope they get him right this time. Spider-Man is one of the most well-known and popular Marvel heroes and people expect a lot from his movies.

[LeotheLateBloomer]

What can I say except FINALLY! But if TASM 3 is cancelled, does that mean the S6 movie and Venom will exist in the MCU? It'd be pointless if they didn't.

Sam Raimi's Spider-Man & Spider-Man 2's critical success will disagree with you there.

I sincerely hope so. No doubt Sony will hold creative control over them too though.

Y'know, I'd actually really like to see a one-off followup to the original Spider-Man movies with the whole team back. An older, married Spider-Man's last adventure. Maybe introduce Mayday/Spider-Girl as a capper - not setting up a spin-off necessarily, but showing Peter passing on Uncle Ben's message to the next generation. It'll never happen, but I'd love to see it.

I can't see them going with Miles right away, but Marvel is very invested in the character and I'm sure they're thinking about working him in at some point.

Well, #DonaldForSpiderman was trending again yesterday...

I think that was a necessary "evil" - they have to work with Sony for this deal, and that means making some room for their film slate as well - they can't put a Marvel movie up as direct competition for a Sony/Marvel Spider-Man movie, so they've got to make some room in their schedule for Sony to have a spot at the table. And on the flip-side, this also means they avoid Spider-Man being a direct competition for their own, lesser-known properties. It's not a perfect situation, but I think they're just trying to avoid conflicts. I can be patient.

I don't get why everyone liked Spider-man 2. Doc Oc was done completely wrong As far as personality goes and killing him was a bogus move.

American Sniper has critical acclaim too. Doesn't stop it being considered a piece of s*it in some people's eyes.

[plastroncafe]

I liked the first Raimi Spidey flick, but everything that came after was a wet hot mess. Toby was a great choice for Peter, but a less than great choice for Spidey. Garfield was the only good thing about the reboots.

I disagree. His very first appearance flat out stated that he became mentally unstable from his fusion with the arms, and the movie portrayed that beautifully. And HE chose to sacrifice himself to atone, no one "killed" him. Ock was never a "bad" guy in the beginning, his mental instability, hubris, and the new-found power made him that way over time. But even in the comics, he eventually sought to redeem himself- Superior Spider-Man, anyone??

I feel the opposite. My personal favorite of the original trilogy was two- everything just gelled so perfectly, and bringing John in as a possible rival made for some great personal tension/entanglements that Peter is so well-known for. "Losing" his powers on top of everything else just made the whole thing feel so much more dire, for me, and Ock was my favorite villain portrayal out of all the movies thus far. Well, Gobby in the first was a close second, but Octavius has always been a favorite of mine due to his intellect and charisma. Let's face it, anyone who can con Aunt May into marrying him is an awesome villain! And Garfield was my biggest gripe in the new films. Decent Spidey, but BAD Peter.

Because its's the best Spidey film to date.
It's called an adaptation of Doc Ock*, and a damn good one too.

Interesting comparison. Maybe it is, I haven't seen it. Spidey 1 & 2 on the other hand, are not. Everyone knows that.
At least wait until after this year's Oscars before claiming that American Sniper is critically acclaimed. I hear that it's nothing like the book it is based on. It might go the same route as American Hustle and not win a single on of its nominations for all we know.

[BabyTurtles]

yay Peter Parker again.......it's not like anyone's getting tired of him right......

This is like getting 2 Flash reboots starring Barry Allen.....why can't we just have Wally for once?

[Candy Kappa]

Personally, I think it would have been interesting if they gender-bent Peter, and then made her the same etnicity as Miles and use the very nice Spider-Gwen costume.

We won't get a Black Widow movie, so a Spider-Gwen could be a nice addition.
