[Floridian]

Megaton right? I don't know it doesn't feel like that to me.

 

[GrizzNKev]

I AM CURRENTLY MASTURBATING

 

[Future PhaZe]

Smart move for Sony

 

[munchie64]

And people doubted heh.

Wonder which MCU film he'll show up in? Sounds like it's gonna be before the solo one.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

SAVE US WHITTA!!

 

[Byronic Hero]

Finally. About time.

 

[ezekial45]

Awesome.

Still wish they'd give Garfield another shot. He deserved to be in a good Spider-Man movie.

 

[Cipherr]

Holy fucking shit.

I can't believe they were able to swing this with Sony. Now they have like everything they want for the MCU. Nothing stops this train.

 

[Fiktion]

Someone update the timeline, what's it look like now?

 

[Sojgat]

Well, shit.

 

[MechDX]

About time!

 

[Troubled Bat]

WE FUCKIN' MADE IT!!! ヾ(*´∀｀*)ﾉ

 

[PeskyToaster]

From the mouth of Marvel themselves. This is great.

 

[Zukuu]

Fuck yeah. Finally a good Spiderman? Also, oh my good, he might be in Avengers?

 

[crmetteer]

OMG I'm so happy!

 

[EightBitNate]

New Spider Man as well

Oh boy

 

[rexor0717]

Awesome! If its better than ASM 1/2 then I'm on board. Sorry Andrew Garfield!

 

[EatinOlives]

Finally!
I know people will be angry it's likely the Amazing franchise, but I'm happy about it.
Shame it likely won't be in time for Civil War, but they still have a lot of potential stuff to cover.

Are you sure about that? The article mentioned that "the new Spider-Man" will first appear in an MCU movie.

 

[darkwing-buck]

Nice

 

[Secret Character]

Is this real life?

 

[otapnam]

Holy shittttttttttt

 

[HUELEN10]

WE SPIDEY NOW

 

[MisterHero]

MAGUIRE-MAN OR NO SALE

THAT IS MY DEAL MARVEL

 

[ReiGun]

This pleases me.

 

[indigo lily]

About time!

YES. OMG CIVIL WAR.

 

[Floridian]

Better late than never I guess.

 

[mreddie]

 

[Fiktion]

Feels like the fall of the Berlin Wall.

 

[MattyG]

OHSHITSON

 

[Forkball]

How is he gonna fit in? Can he fight Thanos? Will his movie be after phase 3?

 

[Permanently A]

ITS FUCKING HAPPENING!

 

[Ridley327]

Sooo....

Logan Lerman?

I would prefer my Spider-Man to not be a moss covered piece of driftwood, so probably.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Thank God. Mutants next plz

 

[An-Det]

Holy shit, this is exciting. Since they say 'collaborate on a new creative direction" and there's no mention of Garfield, I'd be surprised if he'd be back and expect they'd try to shed any relation to the TAS films.

 

[vinnygambini]

Holy shit it's happening!

Article should be included of OP of the deal:

Sony Pictures Entertainment and Marvel Studios are joining forces on the next iteration of Spider-Man. Kevin Feige, who has steered a ton of hit franchise launches for Marvel, boards the project as producer. He will produce the next films with Amy Pascal, who just left the executive suites at Sony for a big production deal.

Under the deal, the new Spider-Man will first appear in a Marvel film from Marvel’s Cinematic Universe, and then Sony Pictures will thereafter release the next installment of its $4 billion Spider-Man franchise, on July 28, 2017. There had been rumors that Sony might sell the webslinger back to Marvel and Disney but that’s not what is happening. Instead, Sony keeps its top franchise but this opens the door to Marvel Comics’ biggest superhero being able to cross pollinate in the Marvel universe. That has been a key benefit in launching Marvel hits from Iron Man to The Avengers. There had been talk that Spidey would surface in an installment of Captain America. Now, that can happen.

Matt Tolmach and Avi Arad, who produced the most recent Amazing Spider-Man films, will be exec producers.

Feels like the fall of the Berlin Wall.

lol

 

[Mr.Swag]

Is it funny that I am more interested in the financial information about this deal than the cinematic shit?

 

[CO_Andy]

Can we get a new season of Spectacular Spider-Man now that Ultimate has been cancelled?

 

[BTM]

Well holy shit

 

[Neoxon]

Does this mean I can finally get my Norman Osborn led Thunderbolts movie?

MAHVEL PLS.

It's James Gunn's passion project after the GotG trilogy, so be hopeful.

 

[……forgetit]

Holy fuck it's happening

 

[Shard]

"Sony Pictures will continue to finance, distribute, own and have final creative control of the Spider-Man films."

Welp, there goes most of my interest.

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

This thread is going to be huge.

MAGUIRE-MAN OR NO SALE

THAT IS MY DEAL MARVEL

Eww no thanks.

 

[lalugubregondola]

Finally! It's going to be awesome

 

[Silkworm]

But is Spidey in MCU or is MCU now in Spidey?
Guess it doesn't matter which way they want to spin it but too bad "Sony Pictures will continue to finance, distribute, own and have final creative control of the Spider-Man films". :-\

 

[Hexa]

It's finally happening. And it looks like Sony is keeping publishing rights too? If so some pretty damn good negotiating must have gone on.

 

[BronsonLee]

Since it says he's gonna be in an MCU movie before his movie in 2017...

That fucking means Civil War.

 

[FStop7]

I wonder if the NK hack forced the issue or if it was Sony's financial problems, in general. Maybe both. Either way, it's good for us.
