Is like XMen set in Spiderman World or Avengers world etc.
 
No mainly due to Studio rights, for instance, X men and FF could technically cross over because they are both undr Fox.


Spiderman has nothing to do with any other film except Ghost Rider because it is under the Sony Banner.



Hulk is now under the Paramount Banner and can cross over with Iron Man, in fact it already has in the FIRST hint of a Marvel Universe portrayed on the big screen.

as of right now no hope for classic Marvel battles like


Hulk vs Juggernaught,
Hulk vs Wolverine
Hulk vs Spiderman
Spiderman vs Wolverine.



we could ver well have Iron Man vs Hulk, and the avengers being assembled usings existing character configurations and actors under the paramount Banner
 
all movies produced (in its entirety) by Marvel Studios are :oldrazz:
 
It actually isn't a "Paramount" banner. Paramount just distributed Iron Man (& are going to distribute IM2, THOR, CA, & AVENGERS) while Universal distributed TIH. Marvel themselves made or are making these movies and sold distributions rights as they saw fit.
 
The fact that Marvel's films can't share a cohesive universe (due to studio rights) is perhaps, the biggest downside when compared to DC (which is entirely under Warner Bros.). I did sort of get a kick watching the Oscars a week ago when Hugh Jackman was on stage acknowledging Robert Downey Jr.'s work in Tropic Thunder (Wolverine was talking to Iron Man:woot:).

Nope. 'Twas never the case. You won't see webbing on the Baxter Building or a big gaping hole in Lady Liberty's head in a Spidey movie. And you will never see an image like this.

Spider-Man doesn't have anything to do with Ghost Rider either, Sony or not.

I'd call it a bonus personally. As long as X-Men exists in it's own mutant bubble, Spider-Man maintains it's upbeat and colourful persona, Ghost Rider and Blade run with their respective horror-themed foundations etc. then studios and directors won't have as much precedent to throw in large amounts of extraneous clutter.

Tell that to Brett Ratner. Or Sam Raimi.
 
Iron Man, the Incredible Hulk, and the upcoming Thor, Avengers, and Captain America movies are all set in the same universe.

Movies not made by Marvel Studios like Punisher, Blade, Fantastic Four, X-Men, and Spider-Man are not.
 
I always wondered this. I guess it's cleared up for me.
 
Here is what they should do in the upcoming Avengers and what not films,
Have Cap's sheild be made of adimentiam, have a character reading about mutants in the daily bugle, and stuff like that.
Connecting all the films without having cameo's or crossovers.
