Sony made the three best Spiderman movies on their own (first 2 Raimi ones, and Spiderverse).

Game Informer got gutted and oh well.

Does Disney give all the profits to the creative team and film crew or do they sit back and expect the profits on their movies?

Imagine being such a wimp that you side against a whole entertainment franchise (mcu) just out of spite, some people in here are mentally on the level of toddlers.

Sony made 6 Spider-man movies.
2 Are great
One is good but cheesy
The other are awful.

Mcu made 2 Spider-man movies
One is great
One is good
His cameos in other mcu flicks were awesome.

Sony has Tom Rothman, MCU has Feige.
I'm siding with MCU because of quality not because I'm a fan, which I am.

Marvel truely has to curse the day back when they must have sold the rights.

Correct.

I'm also way less torn up about this than if it had happened prior to Endgame.

Amazing spider-man was better than the MCU spidery film imo.

Then throw Spider-Man 2 and Spiderverse on top and it’s game set match tbh

Anyone scratcing their heads at all the feelings in this thread should give this video a watch.

sorry sorry he is agender:

Peter Coffin(?)
@petercoffin
leftist video person (agender/any/all)

[benjipwns]

Last year, Peter Coffin, a bearded, male-presenting feminist, came out publicly as nonbinary because “I am physically happy with myself but severely dislike my place in the gender dynamic.” In fact, Coffin wrote, “it just felt like the dynamic didn’t apply to me.” Ignoring the fact that Coffin still reads as male to the world at large (and will continue to reap the accompanying benefits of such, whatever they might be), it’s not hard to see the reasoning: Men are Bad. I am Not Bad. Hence, I am Not a Man.

Some enbies are androgynous or bounce between looks, and others are assigned male at birth and present masculine and others are assigned female at birth who present feminine. Writer Peter Coffin, for instance—a bearded father of two who is married to a feminine-presenting woman—came out earlier this year as “agender,” a subsidiary of the nonbinary identity. Why? Because, in his own words, he “disliked [his] place in the gender dynamic.” So, instead of working to dismantle a hierarchy that places men at the top and women at the bottom, he simply stopped identifying as a man, while, of course, still receiving all the privileges of people who look like them. I suppose that’s one way to deal with structural sexism.

While there's been no comprehensive census of people calling themselves nonbinary (much less agender), gray-bearded fathers like Peter Coffin, are, from my observation, the minority.

Disney will shift everything to Kamala now. Feige probably regrets wasting the Stark relationship rocket push on Spider Man when this could have been used on Kamala who they have control over.

Can you imagine how big it would have been for a girl with middle eastern heritage to be the leader of the Marvel Universe? That would have been some real social impact.

[benjipwns]

if one of my alters is an agender 21 year old who likes niche video games can i buy that girl bubble tea?

[Boredfrom]

Pretty sure they always planned to introduce a young hero so that they could have a leader that would be around for decades. Spider man was going to be just that. And there was talk of Kamala Khan getting a movie franchise. That died and then young Spider Man became a thing. You could for sure have plugged Kamala into Spider Man's current spot.

Homecoming is legit one of the worst MCU movies and about on par with the ASM flicks.

Yes. I hope they find something very far away from the video game industry.

Hopeful the two sides will come to an agreement though.

still waiting for a superhero movie to be better than Hellboy or Blade 2

basically guillermo del toro is the king of superheroes

Had no idea he directed Blade 2. No wonder it was so good. Makes sense that Blade 3 was a complete trainwreck as he didn't work on that. Though there are other reasons beyond that I'm sure.

Edit: Wesley Snipes refusing to open his eyes for a random scene so they were CGI added in for example 
Edit 2: Though seeing that the directer for 3 was the same writer for 1 and 2 and went on to write other good movies before and after (give or take) I'm kinda surprised how completely awful Blade 3 turned out to be.

So now off-site stuff isn't banworthy? Pretty sure there was more than one occasion where off-site "detective" work was used to get members banned and the mods happily obliged (while also giving a tepid "Hey now! Not internet detective work!" after banning the target).

Blade 3 was plagued by Snipes and the director David Goyer being at extreme odds (Snipes refused to talk with him at all on set) and... well... Having Goyer as a director. It was pretty tired and using all of the shitty ropes mandated by executives to "expand the franchise". The DVD has an incredible featurette of Goyer the writer interviewing Goyer the director in split screen where he fellates himself about how talented he is. Goyer has a pretty stellar resume but in reality it's not at all clear he's that good, even by his own admission. He's more of an outline guy, and him and Norrington drew a lot from Snipes to make Blade somewhat of a charismatic character on screen.

Careful now RE, don't get sued...

[benjipwns]

Who are we to call someone childish? We should worry a little less about ManaByte and a little more about our own damn selves, frankly.

People dunk on users here all of the time, especially when they perpetuate dumb bullshit.

You may not have noticed, but there has been a conscious effort here to stop that after a certain YouTuber committed suicide.

Additionally, it's just... y'know, a shitty thing to do.

You don't have to be a yes man, but there's a way to criticize that doesn't involve -- for example -- posting screenshots of deleted tweets with the express intent to embarrass and mock their author.

It's not okay to shit on people. If someone deleted their embarrassing tweet, maybe it's because they were embarrassed by it. For someone to then repost that tweet with the express intent to further mock its author... Like, you don't know what that person is going through. It's not okay and it is never okay. Surely it doesn't take someone admitting publicly that they're struggling with mental health issues for you to see any merit in sparing them public humiliation.

[clothedmacuser]

That’s an obfuscation by saying no action. It’s no public action. There could easily be internal and HR actions that are not public knowledge for obvious reasons.

The truth is they don’t care, firings is all they’ll accept.

they don't accept firings are you kidding me

I took a quick trip in my alternate universe generator here is one of many posts from the universe where thq fired the hr guy responsible

While the gesture of eliminating [MOD EDIT: real name removed] is appreciated, I'm still not sure whether I can trust this company.  A corporate culture that leads to making such a staggeringly bad decision is surely deeply rooted and something that is normalized among other employees there.
How do we know this man's closest coworkers weren't laughing right along with him?  How do we know he didn't spread his chan ideology to them, or even inherited it from them in the first place?

I am confident that playing any future games from this trash company would at the very least leave a sour taste in my mouth.  Thanks but no thanks.

This is why we need unions. 

Wait no,   this is why unions are bad when bad people get them.
