Spider-Man is Entering The Marvel Cinematic Universe
- Thread starter Colonel Nasty
- Start date
Sony stands to gain from the larger audience that the stand alone Spidey films will attract. By appearing in the MCU they instantly re energize the franchise and have Kevin Feige overlooking the direction of the films.
Disney/Marvel gains perhaps their most popular and iconic character that can be used to boost their already successful franchises and drive more merchandise. It opens up opportunities with Civil War and Infinity War.
He's going to take out his anger on the Mario movie.

They are going to introduce him in another movie (rumor from before was Captain America 3). With that in mind, I'd predict no origin story. Probably just some quick synopsis during the opening credits of his solo movie.

I just realized something....
People...we're all a bunch of nerds who know this info before the general public will know/care.
Can you imagine being at a midnight showing to a big movie and the Civil War teaser plays?
With IM, CA, BP, SM?
O_O!!!

No x100000.
Civil War is doing above Avengers 1 numbers.
Actually, it's pretty shit that new characters and new stories have to be pushed around to make room for yet another incarnation of a character that has already had multiple movies made.
The leaks also suggested that Marvel wants to recast young. They're probably gonna play it like Spectacular Spider-Man did. He's been at web-slinging for a while, but not for too long.

Ansel Elgort seems like he'd be right up Marvel/Disney's ally - not really known enough to command a huge paycheck, but has enough of a resume that they won't be a complete hot mess?

I find Spiderman silly and boring, so for me I don't really see how his addition into the universe add anything of value.
Lol what?

EDIT: Better list ^
They'll both be fine. They're like two months a part. Plenty of time for each to make money.
This is the first and hopefully proper MCU version of Spiderman. That's a huge deal! He's one of the most important marvel characters and he's finally home. We will still get those other stories so nothing is lost.

I don't think we'll ever see a superhero movie that doesn't star the default character. In movies I think we'll always get Hal Jordan, Bruce Wayne, Barry Allen, Clark Kent, Tony Stark, and Peter Parker because that's what the casual audience knows even though the casual audience doesn't know Flash and Green Lantern in general.

Whatever world-building SHIELD is doing/will do will continue to happen. The show will continue to air until then more than likely if its ratings stay anywhere near what they are right now. Even if it does go away, they'll just transition the main characters they need (Skye, Coulson, May, etc.) to the MCU. Inhumans will be fine. It will probably be to Phase 3 what Ant-Man is to Phase 2. A movie that takes place after the Avengers, but still matters going forward.

Fuck this for pushing back the almighty Black Panther though, for real.

Considering they were scheduled on the same day originally and WB was the one to move, I'm not sure that Marvel is too frightened.
Marvel was able to fix the hulk. They can fix spidey.
People who keep shouting Miles Morales forget officially until he appears Spiderman doesn't even exist in the Marvel Movie Universe. You have to start with Peter Parker even if you want Morales eventually in because Morales is inspired to take on the whole gig because of Parker.

They were to be released on the same weekend but after The Winter Soldier DC was like Fuck no and moved it.
And-a ooh-ohh
Hey (hey) Nothin's a matter with your head, baby, find it
Come on and find it
I'm hoping that they do what the The Incredible Hulk did and give the gist of his origins/previous happenings in a few minute long credits montage.
They could actually very loosely tie in that montage with most of the first Amazing Spider-Man if they wanted to but they'd likely have to retcon some minor things.
