Great that the money is going to Cancer research, but is seems that Sony is really phoning this in. If the person with the winning bid pays out over 5 grand, they should get the works.

The starting price was 99 cents so these bidders either really want to be in the film or are just doing it cuz the money is going to a good cause. Gonna be interesting either way. And the winner will be announced on a tv special that'll air on ABC, CBS, and NBC Sept 5th. I wish I had enough money to do this. Not to get in Spidey 4 but to just donate to cancer research.

Then just donate money to Cancer research. They could use donations with out having to give something out. Every little bit counts.

Yeah really. I can't believe you didn't know that it works that way.

Don't have $5,000+ but want to make a difference? Donate here. Just click the 'Donate Now' tab.

It really doesn't matter... the studio et al can write off any of the prizes as a Tax write off (someone correct me if I'm wrong), so the studio doesn't EVEN have to pay anything. It's just free PR...

Right, which has nothing to do with what I was saying. I'm saying don't wait for a BENEFIT for donating to cancer research, if you really want to help, then help.

Hoffman was great even if I tend to forget his existence. I’d love to see Spider-Man 4 with Raimi and Tobey but I wonder if they could recapture the magic of the original trilogy. I even think the third movie is pretty good even if I have my issues with it. There’s something at its core that still makes it more appealing than *most* MCU films.
Maybe it’s the practical effects or the TLC you can feel put into it. It’s a film more than a product whereas the reverse feels true for the MCU.

Don’t get me wrong, I do love the MCU when it’s firing on all cylinders. I rewatched Civil War the other day just to confirm that that the MCU used to be awesome - it was.

Has anyone been following the progress of the Spider-Man 4 fanfilm? The director Eric updates his Youtube channel semi-regularly with news on the project whenever he gets permission.

Looking back on my posts in here...yikes, I was way too harsh on Raimi back then. I sort of have a better appreciation for these films now (still don't like Dunst's MJ though), also my comments about Venom's lack of relevancy aged REALLY badly...
