Sony want money. Having him in more movies is gonna give him more exposure, leading to more money. Is there a good reason for Spidey not to show up in Avengers 3? No, there isn't.

To sell you need someone who wants to buy first.

Infinity war seems like such a perfect excuse for Spider-Man go to space and got the symbiote costume. Imagine how much money can get just from black costume spider-man alone. Then they can do Venom for stand alone spider-man movie which will get a lot of money as well simply because of Venom.
Nobody gives a shit about Venom. Give me Mysterio or Kraven. Hell, I'll even take scorpion.

I wish.
I sure am glad Marvel got their hands on Spidey before Sony was able to move on with that Venom spin-off.

With regards to my question, I was wondering more like, if there was an actual personal reason for Parker to wade into the intergalactic stuff beyond doing the hero thing because it's the hero thing to do, but then I guess that's also personal for him, as what he's gotta do too. Power and Responsibility, that whole thing.
Still... we have the Airport Fight, and then Homecoming to establish what he can do as a teenager. Are we gonna have to take it on faith that he can be more than just a momentary nuisance to Thanos and whoever's fighting on his dime?
Other than Thor, Hulk, Vision, Strange, Captain Marvel, Wanda, Groot and maybe Ant-man and Drax, none of the characters have any business trying to square up with Thanos.
So yeah, I see no reason Spiderman shouldn't be involved. There'll be other obstacles besides just Thanos anyways.

MCU venom will be played by michael cera, who quips throughout the whole movie then jobs to spider-man.

Outside of michael cera bit (which is ridiculous, no one hires that dude anymore), that's basically what Venom is.

Did you capitalize the S in Scorpion when you quoted me?

... Oh wow, I did. Sorry! >_>
I just keep remembering hearing Avi Arad saying The Venom, and my headcanon is that Avi is the reason why we have Venom Snake in MGSV: The Phantom Pain.
Doc Strange was fantastic. Best origin story together with Iron Man and Ant-Man.
As for the reports about Mads being wasted, I think as a villain Kaecilius had more depth and screen time than the average MCU villain. Liked his philosophical ideas and they definitely tried to make his motivation less black/white, not the usual "destroy/conquest the world" stuff.

Besides they can quite easily bring him back as the terrestrial host for Dormammu, his way of showing himself on Earth, or something like that if they wish so, seeing as the movie didn't technically end with his death, but rather with him being assimilated to the Dark Dimension.

Yeah, they should've stuck with the comic art rather than including movie footage and concept art.I hate the new Studio fanfare
Music is alright but the animation is really not good.
I really like the new music, though.

Only downside to the new logo for me is no Spiderman.

The music on the Civil War logo was absolutely epic. Just said "this is the culmination of everything thus far, it's going to be big"
The logo in Guardians was also perfectly placed. They need to make sure however it looks in Infinity War that it's used effectively.

why would fox not work out a deal with disney? if Doom/Reed were to appear in Infinity war no one would complain since it's the culmination film. After that I can't see them popping up.
It's not like anyone cares about them anyway after last years trash.

If I had to guess, I'd say there'd still be some leftover resentment from when Perlmutter shit the bed on the inter-studio relationship, in addition to the idea that Fox had the magic touch with the X-Men and Deadpool, so there's no reason they can't make F4 and rake in all the cash and acclaim.
But, I think Fox is getting worried about X-Men. Apocalypse sort of came and went which is a bad sign for a big budget tent-pole. I think they're going to rely less on Singer and more on these new directors they have lined up, though its worrying that none of their projects have really come together in a tangible way. Maybe after Logan we'll get the glut of casting announcements for "New Mutants" and "X-Force" and what not.

why is this thread not as active as the DC one? this thread dies for days at a time sometimes.
Because there are about a million individual active Marvel threads running right now with numerous ongoing discussions for Marvel fans on this site:
Doctor Strange thread.
Doctor Strange review thread.
Doctor Strange Spoiler thread.
Iron Fist production thread.
Agents of SHIELD Season 4 thread.
The Defenders production thread.
Spiderman Homecoming production thread.
Additionally, outside of those numerous productions, there hasn't been much major MCU related news in the last few weeks considering we won't be getting another MCU film till next year.
In other words, patience!

I'm seeing Doc Strange Saturday.... then I will be free!
We're going to get the announcement for Captain Marvel's director soon. Yep, any day now...

Yeah this is the main reason. And we've talked about it before as well. Usually we decide to try to not do a production thread for something because those also don't have news for long gaps of time, and then inevitably someone makes one anyways and the cycle repeats.
Additionally, the week of release of a new film it is sometimes a bit slower than usual (like now) due to people wanting to avoid spoilers, as they are technically allowed to be posted here.
Maybe we have luck
Well, one of the guys in favor of selling the movie department just left. It'll be interesting to see who wins the battle.
Personally I think focussing on sports right alone is a bad idea. I'd be surprised if the shareholders agreed.

When it comes to the Fantastic Four and chances of returning to Marvel, I keep my hopes very low. That way it doesn't hurt as much when nothing happens.It seems like that decisions regarding the sell out of the movie department of the Constantin AG (who owns the Fantastic Four rights and is just helped by Fox) are going to be made on the 9th.
Maybe we have luck
A fiery-headed fella on a motorcycle gave Robbie Reyes a similar condition during a flashback on this week's Agents of Shield.
Y'all should watch Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Probably. That's normally how it goes, no? "We have no plans for *character*, you can use them for Netflix/ABC/Hulu/Freeform/whatever."

It went kind of like that. They way I heard Jeph Loeb tell it, Marvel came to him and asked him if he wanted to use GR and he plus Jed and Maurissa were like fuck yeah we do.
TDLink
Member
It was on SHIELD so it means absolutely nothing and is barely worth talking about.
Yeah it's definitely the latter. Once a GR passes the Spirit of Vengeance on he's no longer GR anyways. So really they basically "wasted" Johnny on a quick cameo and if they ever do use him in the MCU now it would be in a flashback/something that takes place in the past.
But I really doubt they have any plans for him or GR in general whatsoever, which is why SHIELD gets to use him.

OH SHIT, WHAT? JOHNNY "THE MAN" BLAZE SHOWED UP?
Glass Rebel

Y'all missing out if you're not watching SHIELD S4. First 6 episodes might have been the best Marvel TV ever.
I don't watch Agents of SHIELD but yeah, I caught the scene on YouTube and that was a seriously cool moment. Honestly shocked Marvel would let the producers use a character like Johnny Blaze on an ABC tv show, instead of potentially keeping him in their back pocket for some kind of theoretical Phase 9 reboot of the character.
I know I keep saying this, but if they just borrowed the rights to Victor Von Doom so they could use him for the main MCU villain for Phase 4 after Thanos and my life would be complete. If they filmed a secret post-credits scene for Infinity War with Vincent Cassel as Doom...my lord.
I love me some AoS but I don't know if I'd personally go that far.
Robbie is a great addition though.
