>Insider Jeff Sneider revealed that Sony initially wanted Andrew Garfield to be the Spider-Man of the Madame Web world. The production studio altered its course after Garfield declined and decided to include Tom Holland's Spider-Man. However, this caused a timeline error as Madame Web was reportedly being set in the '90s, prompting them to reshoot and eliminate any references to Spider-Man and a specific year. Sneider also indicated that the primary reason for the movie's reshoots was to eliminate all '90s references, ensuring alignment with the timelines.

you know there's some braindead execs and writers who are thinking"10 years ago, you know, the 90's"
They're not wrong though
hey i have been saying for years i want more shit set in the 90s.
the fact that we're getting it and it SUCKS is beside the point.
Sony shoving a Spider-Man spin-off through production without even having a concrete idea of how, even if, it'll connect to one of the existing films? Unheard of.
how does sony still have a film division
Almost entirely Spiderman, aside from inside out and the Jumanji movies they haven't had anything else enter the top 10 for a decade.
inside out is by pixar tho also spiderman carrying sony outside of gaming has got to be the most random thing ever
Jesus Christ it's even worse than I thought. What's weirder is that Jumanji is the only other pillar they have. Those are the two most random ip's to keep you afloat.
i mean theyre trying to diversify their movie output w video game adaptations but considering uncharted & the rest of sonys recent live action films..
Now that you mention it the playstation has always been successful while having the least noteworthy ip's in the medium. Like aside from god of war and ratchet they kill everything off each generation.
xbox literally only has halo & a racing game but yeah sonys modern gaming output has pretty much just been remaking the last of us a billion times and its a shame too cuz sony actually has rly great ips
imagine if nintendo makes a film studio but cant use zelda cuz sony has the film rights
most sony exclusives are japan only
That hasn't been the case for a very long tine.
And now they're adapting games from their competitiors with the Zelda movie. The frick's goin on over there
I thought that was universal.
Sony's fronting the cash for Zelda. Universal still has production rights.
>xbox literally only has halo & a racing game
Palworld too.
no way palworld is actually owned by microsoft
They don't. Pocket Pair is indie
>spiderman carrying sony outside of gaming has got to be the most random thing ever
It's pretty fascinating to watch a company scrape the bottom of the barrel just to not lose the Spider-Man rights. I was surprised they cancelled El Muerto, I figured they'd be desperate enough to keep going with that.
>inside out
Didn't that shit come out almost ten fricking years ago
it wasn't even that good
Venom x jumanji crossover when
Their bad movies don't cause them too lose as much money as their successful movies. They've been a mess for decades.
but surely their bad movies cant make that much right? like morbius bombed
>how does sony
>Almost entirely
>the most random thing ever
>even worse than I thought.
>They've been a mess for decades.
I love how the special needs rejects here can't spend 5 seconds on a simple browser search.
While the last decade IS a lot of Spider-Man, similar things are true of the other studios. The third column represents market share....
If you go back just the past 15-18 years, it's Fox that has really shit the bed - especially since it's been a steep downhill trend since 2015, or well before the House of Mouse bought them, and Paramount which hasn't been able to even keep in the 10% range, save for the Top Gun outlier.
Everyone is bunched together for market share, except for about 4-5 years between 2014-2020, before lockdown, that Disney/Buena Vista had huge paydays but even then, they barely made it above 25% market share a few of those years, so 10-12, even 15% is the norm for the major studios, so Sony/Columbia has been at norm for the past two decades.
NOW - do they have brain dead ass hats in their C-Suites? Sure, the LEGIT leaked emails more than proved that.
>Sony is barely above Universal who made almost the same amount of money with less movies
Ouch.
The horrifying thing is that Sony is better off now than it was in the mid/late 2010s
Venom made a billion dollars
Sony Pictures Entertainment is a prime example of falling upward. The more they frick up royally the more successful they seem to get.
FRICK OFF
At least that means we might get awkward Brie hitting on Sydney Sweeney?
Context?
The context is it's an edit.
Thank god. civil war was dumb enough that it could be real.
So what?
So you wanted to bump the thread off page 10 because you couldn'taccept people don'tcare about this thread. Pathetic.
Here, let me bump it again from page 10 just for you.
>let's keep making Spider-Man movies without Spider-Man!
>*SNOOOOOOOORT SNORT SNORT*
>It's gonna work sooner or later!
>*SNOOOOOOOORT*
>Coke slave! Bring me another cocaine bucket, this one is empty!
Cocaine = instant bad idea powder.
Venom made money, Venom 2 did well considering it was released during a Covid year.
They're making the others on a much lower budget, so they're not in the same situation as the MCU where they practically need to make a billion just to break even. That's going to be a trend Hollywood as a whole is going to have to start following, and just scale down the budgets of movies.
Cocaine is not a drug that makes you more rational.
>MCU where they practically need to make a billion just to break even.
You can't honestly believe this.
There are anons on this site that have claimed the MCU has been dead since the first Avengers movie.
The funniest part was when Black Panther came out and the anons kept claiming it was a flop even as it kept making shit tons of money.
Disney put so much money into the Marvel movies that they have to be hugely successful to make a profit. Had these films had standard budgets, they could’ve gotten by with small successes for several of them.
Why not just make a Venom verse?
Make it a little darker, edgier. If the movies are not explicitly set in the 90s, they can still feel like the 90s New Line Cinema era. There's nostalgia for that Blade/Spawn/The Crow era of capeshit.
A Venom movie.
Morbius in a Venom sequel.
Man Wolf in a Venom sequel. (Just put the Spider Monster characters in Venom)
Sydney Sweeney in a sexy Black Cat movie.
Silver Sable in a sexy Black Cat sequel.
A sexy noir ish Jessica Drew Spider Woman movie (Madame Web can still be the clairvoyant character)
A Sinister Six heist movie
Kraven as an ongoing antagonist across the movies.
Carnage as the big bad Thanos and Maximum Carnage is their endgame.
Call it the "Dark Web" Universe.
If you can actually nab Andrew Garfield, have the twist be that he's in his 30s, wears the Black Suit, is married to MJ. Evoke that 80s/90s MacFarlane era.
Is it schlocky? Yeah. So? People like schlock as long as it's fun. It's just capeshit.
>Is it schlocky? Yeah. So? People like schlock as long as it's fun. It's just capeshit.
Exactly. Nothing wrong with making popcorn entertainment for the masses.
>Sydney Sweeney in a sexy Black Cat movie.
Modern day Halle Berry Catwoman
How does a studio so completely lack self-awareness that they keep pumping out shit, when it's obvious they should have just fired everyone above the line and started from scratch?
how do these people have jobs? I don't understand. It's not hard to know what the story is before you start shooting. Get a guy to write you a script. Get garfield's answer before the script is written. Then you can incorporate Tom Holland if you want. I'm honestly impressed by the incompetence.
Because thats not how franchise movies get made now, even marvel is shooting on a weekly basis, and thats why most of it is awful greenscreen.
What/where/when scenes take place change constantly, which is also why reshoots are constantly happening, theres an entire rooms full of producers that contractually have to be heard and whoever is on assembly has to desperately stick all these lego pieces together to construct a half decent movie that test audiences (read: morons) think is good.
Its a nightmare.
Source: worked vfx on a couple marvel projects and have plenty of friends that stayed in the field.
Good for Garfield. He wants no part of that shit movie
>Reviving a dead spin off idea made after the conclusion of Spiderman 3
Its amazing how Snoy can easily hire writers to destroy the MShitU with one character and yet they keep fricking up.
