Homecoming "Spider-Man Summit" Thread

Sony is asking way too much in those emails. Marvel refused once, they can refuse again. This is not looking good. **** Sony, man.

Remeber the first deal was offered in October, the second in November.

The counter from marvel would have been submitted after the leak. They do want him, and they know Sony may cave, so they'd at least send another offer.

That's probably still with sony, post leak. They've got the following options;

-Continue ASM series without Andrew Garfield.
-Reboot by themselves.
-Reboot with Marvel.

Right now they are in absolute shambles, they've offended a lot of people, will get sued, have lost at least 50 million on the interview, have potentially more hacks to come, and are basically the laughing stock of the film industry right now. Pair that with increasingly poorly performing spidey movies, they really are backed into a corner. The leaks of the potential deal have only made matters worse as they face extreme pressure from the GA and hardcore fans alike to make a deal with an objectively more succesful studio.

To put it lightly, sony are completely *****. No ifs or buts about it.

At this point the only thing we can know for sure is that Spidey WILL go back to marvel, its just a matter of WHEN it will. Absolutely no chance a Solo-Sony-Spidey will recover, eventually they'll have to stop. Their only other option is to work with Marvel now.

There is no concievable scenario, based of the information we have right now, that ends with Sony holding the property in 100% perpetuity for years to come.

This is coming from someone who really really loved all 5 spidey films, and the TASM Series especially.

Sony must make a deal if they want spidey, and perhaps even their entire film division, to prosper. They're on life support people.
