WELCOME TO THE MARVEL MULTIVERSE -*RIP STAN LEE & Boseman* - XMEN97 release 3/20

[rfx45]

I am not sure I follow just becaue Feige is incolved in all stories in MCU and now somewhat a consultant for Sony. I think he will be consistent with the events in MCU but I don't know, just don't see Spidey being a big feature character in MCU, again if I were Sony I'd want to still do my own thing with that character and make major stories with him. I'd let him fight along the Avengers, make cameo and be part of the group that takes down Thanos but he can't be the one that does the deus ex machina or the one that beats him.

Well I mean Spidey works best on his own anyway. All I really want to see is him fighting along side of the Avengers and showing up here and there. This works best for Sony honestly because instead of trying to dish out all his best stories instantly, they could use some of the MCU stuff. Like after this first trilogy is over or whatever, he could lead his own squad of Avengers his age similar to the cartoon or something like that.

No I get what you are saying but that would require a split between studios and that wasn't part of their deal. Doing that would mean Spiderman would star in his own MCU film and if I were Sony, I'd ask for a percentage of profits and then production cost/share, etc... will be the issue like it was before. I just don't think a movie with a Spiderman centerpiece is practically giving Spidey back to MCU and I am not sure Sony will allow that unless they get a big chuck of the profit from it.


Via Variety:

Marvel Studios won’t pay Sony Pictures for the rights to put Spider-Man in “Captain America: Civil War,” the “Avengers” franchise or its other superhero films, as part of its new partnership with the studio, according to sources with knowledge of the deal. At the same time, Marvel won’t receive a cut of the box office for any of Sony’s films that feature Spider-Man. Sony won’t receive a percentage of the revenue Disney makes from Marvel’s films that have Spider-Man, either.

It's 'put on the suit and let's go a few rounds' lol

whoops, yea that. etiher way, Cap gonna wash Tony.

to think he was bout to kill Tony before he was stopped..

Who has that hook up here? Looking to sign up now getting kinda bored

it was @lokid300s for like $15/yr. MU is AMAZING. so expansive.

 

[rfx45]

I think they do care just because that is likely one of the big factors in getting your future projects green lit.

It was released in 8 theaters opening week and made 162k. That's over 20k a screening.

For perspective, TWS averaged 24k a screening and Thor 2 averaged 21k

It was widely noted that the studio botched the release and ****** it up for award consideration. I don't remember the exact numbers but it almost broke VOD records and doubled its box office revenue.

Evans is fine, If he loses a role it's because he's competing with the 3 other Chris' lol not because of Snowpiercer

*Doubled opening weekend box office revenue, not total box office money.

What was the budget? Just curious.

I mean even if it did that much on a per screen basis, it still didn't make the big bucks and if I were an exec and I am looking to profit, obviously I'd pick another that would be more profitable.

I totally get what you are saying but there are more to is just those simple numbers. Take Superman Returns for example, it's budget is bloated because they added the cost of the failed Burton/Nic Cage Superman budget to it so the profit became much less and many if not most saw it as a box office bomb.

Oh, I see. Well ****, at least he's here. They should figure something out in which they'll both benefit. Or Disney should just nut up and the MF already.

I'm not building a franchise around Evans if I'm an exec but if I'm making a Safe House type film (the Denzel/Reynolds movie) he's pretty high on my list.

I don't think Snowpiercer set him back at all, it showed he could be a leading man away from Marvel.

Now I wouldn't give him a directing gig that's a gamble I'd avoid

All guesses on my end, can't claim to be an expert on the matter when it came to Snowpiercer. I still it hurt him in some ways though.

But what he wanted to do was direct and that didn't seem to pan out well so that might just be why he is staying? He hasn't actually stated it so we'll just have to see if he "bites the dust" in CW.

 

[tay1]

Snowpiercer did well. It was pretty much acclaimed. 95 RT rating, and good scores on other sites from what I remember. And it made double its budget. Evans will have work for a while.

 

[sea manup]

have there been any set photos of antman in CW? wonder if he will upgrade his suit

tony and war machine bout to get washed

yet another movie where the central conflict is largely starks fault, the MCU would be better off without him 

Well according to reports, the conflict will start due to Crossbones, and Crossbones is Cap's villain, so technically....

crossbones is just a bad guy, stark literally creates his villains 

it may be crossbones that starts it but the its still everyone disagreeing with tony that is the "civil war". dude is basically a communist tbh 

He's really only created two villains for himself. Tony made the armor to escape from his kidnappers, using his technological skills and basing it off an old invention of his father's, and Obadiah Stane then found the pieces of said armor, rebuilt it, and used it against Tony. Not Tony's fault, as Obadiah was already a villain and set up the entire process that led to Tony creating the armor.Tony didn't even know Vanko existed, and said villain used leftover knowledge from his dad, who worked with the Arc Reactor to become a villain. Justin Hammer was envious of Tony in every way, and then teamed up with Vanko to kill him. The Mandarin and all, along with Ultron, is the most direct involvement you could say Tony's had. And Ultron involved Banner as well, plus some mind-tricks from the Scarlet Witch. That incident could've gone differently.

If this Civil War is anything like the comics its actually everyone disagreeing with the American Government, not Tony.

 

[robinvandamn]

I think he "dies" in CW and we get Bucky with the shield for a little bit & Cap comes back in IW 2 but after that I have no idea. I've been starting to think everyone dies in 1st half of Phase 3 so don't pay me any attention

Why not?

It's always risky having actors try to become directors. It depends on the film and the scale they're working with but I'd much rather be the third studio to give him a chance than the first

there are set photos of Rudd but nothing with him in the suit

Marvel will forever hold this L for not casting a Miles Morales as the new center of their verse

 

[nomnom]

No way Marvel makes Spidey the center regardless of which Spidey when Sony still maintains some control over him

 

[jays25]

Miles Morales the center of the films? Ridiculous.

 

[alleyzonjay]

If this Civil War is anything like the comics its actually everyone disagreeing with the American Government, not Tony.

well Tony was on the Governments side, so youre still disagreeing with Tony.

he also built RoboThor that killed their buddy which was in part why Spider-Man and others switched sides.

so i disagree with you too lol.

 

[robinvandamn]

Marvel will forever hold this L for not casting a Miles Morales as the new center of their verse

and what Miles stories would you of liked to see adapted?

Dudes own series's just recently started being centered around him lol

 

[rfx45]

Age of Ultron was nothing like the book outside of, well, Ultron?

 

[KingdomFlatbush]

Wut? These are movies. Make some **** up. Their job is to make **** up

Yeah, but then they're also disagreeing with Mr. Fantastic and numerous other heroes on their side, who also supported the Registration thru the very end. (As well as literally thousands of people that work for the government and keep it running lol) Just saying, implying that this is Tony Stark's idea and everything is wrong. Hell, Captain America went rogue because Maria Hill tried to have him arrested before the Registration Act even passed, when he made it clear he wouldn't be going along with it. That in turn had nothing to do with Tony. Tony became the face of the Act, but with or without him it was a set of laws that had been passed by the American government, which he was then just standing behind.

 

[robinvandamn]

Wut? These are movies. Make some **** up. Their job is to make **** up

If there is a compelling miles story that you'd like to see then the complaint makes sense. Otherwise it's just stupid

 

[Fozz]

Miles Morales the center of the films?

Ridiculous.

As great of a job Bendis has done withe Miles Morales and the Ultimate Spider-Man, I don't think any of his stories are movie worthy.

And I don't see Marvel with a  L for not making Spider-Man black.

 

[nomnom]

Age of Ultron was nothing like the book outside of, well, Ultron?

Yup, no Wolverine and time travel haha
