Plus, Agent Carter is a character who is established as an agent. They basically were like "we need an Agent Carter. Who is the only female character with name recognition that we have? Let's just make Spider-Man's kindly old aunt a femme fatale." Nobody goes to see Aunt May be a spy. Because she's not. It's such a desperate, hacky "me too."

I would watch an Aunt May movie if she was basically Mary Worth and Peter Parker was newspaper Spider-man. I would watch it so hard.

One thing that is alarming from those emails is Sony having the temerity to ask for approval power (in addition to seeing the script) over Captain America 3, and wanting to be able to use Marvel characters according to their own discretion. I think the last ten years have shown that no one in Sony should have influence over anything creatively. Their just a pus filled boil waiting to be lanced, at this point.

Those aren't really all that ridiculous as opening questions, which they were, and you've pretty severely distorted some of them.

All these Spider-Man negotiations are really boring to me, though, I'd be more interested in the failed negotiations with Fox.

Marvel wants Silver Surfer and Galactus in exchange for Daredevil, but Fox decided to let Daredevil go. Probably because they know they have plenty of X-Men characters already.

Yeah the Spider-Man ones are basically "we're attempting to do anything at all with the franchise to rebuild interest", maybe make him older, maybe younger. The Fox 70's Daredevil idea, the various X-Men spin off attempts (especially the lead up to First Class failures) or Marvel's attempt to fire everybody at various points would be more interesting. .

Riven posted:Plus, Agent Carter is a character who is established as an agent. They basically were like "we need an Agent Carter. Who is the only female character with name recognition that we have? Let's just make Spider-Man's kindly old aunt a femme fatale." It's especially jarring since Spider-Man's real parents were actually spies in the comics. Actually, that reminds me, they could adapt Waid's Spider-Man:Family Business OGN. It has an adult Peter as the protagonist, plus Teresa Parker could be their new Agent Carter. Spies and Superheroics sounds like a winning combination if you ask me. But I guess you'd need to do a lot of rejigging with the villains. Maybe take a cue from Spectacular Spider-Man and have Tombstone in place of the Kingpin, since he's probably tied up with Daredevil's rights. Might be pretty good.

reignonyourparade posted:just in case Movie Exec Superstition makes them think "Catwoman Mark II would obviously be a failure." Watching studio execs try to figure out what "the kids of today" want is like watching a dog trying to eat a slice of lemon and getting angry and confused that its mouth parts feel weird and hurty. "God loving drat it, the polls said that kids like 'emo culture' and dancing so we gave them an emo dancing Peter Parker and the loving ingrates snubbed us! Those ungrateful fuckers!"

More like the symbiote cured him of being emo, hence the dancing. Spider-Man 3 is also still the highest-grossing movie of the 5 Sony made.

Spider man 3 made money because Spider man 2 was good. Amazing Spider Man didn't make money because Spider man 3 was bad. That's kind of how it works with superhero movies.

Sunday's Spider news http://www.thedailybeast.com/articl...-in-capt-3.html http://www.screengonzo.com/2014/12/14/scoop-a-meeting-of-the-minds-to-occur-between-marvel-sony-early-next-year/ quote:One plan, according to the source, is that Marvel would include an after-credits stinger that would center on Spider-Man. As we can expect, filming for Captain America: Civil War is gearing up for a February/March start, so the timing would certainly fit to get something like this filmed. Our source tells us they are prepping 3 stages at Pinewood in anticipation of the Cap 3 project. quote:“I really feel, in my heart of hearts, that the new spiderman [sic] in cap 3 could just appear in his own film, be it sinister six or a kick rear end spidey film of his own, after that intro in cap 3 and people would be cool with it,” wrote De Luca.

The article also says that Marvel and Sony have a meeting planned in January. I think this is leading to Spidey showing up in Cap 3 after all.

If that New Avengers stinger turns out to be true that's a pretty logical place for Spidey to show up

Ugh. Just when fox was starting to steer x-men back to palatable territory, hey decide their superhero team isn't team-y enough and shove the f4 down our throats. News flash: literally no one likes both the x men and the fantastic four. Keep that poo poo out of the x films. You are a dog. These teams don't even fit.

I like them both, but I still think it's really damned stupid to try and mash them together just because. There are more than enough mutants to feed the team need.

I enjoy both, but I also agree that out of any combination of Marvel's four pillar franchises (Avengers, Spider-Man, X-Men, F4) those two are the least compatible with each other.

Just reverse-Pietro them in as a stretchy mutant, fire mutant, invisible mutant, and rock mutant.

If not handled carefully it would come off quite tone-deaf and make the FF look really pompous and pampered. Mutants, the hated and hunted minority group du jour meeting (battling) the gorgeous rich celebrated adventurers? Yeesh.

I vaguely remember a comic where someone (Wolverine?) is trying to prevent Spiderman from escaping something and his internal monologue is basically how screwed he is because Spiderman has gone up against guys like the Hulk and the Juggernaut and nobody has ever managed to squish the bug. If they ever do get Spiderman in one of the Avengers movies it'd be great to have a Spidey-fan pandering scene where he basically clowns the entire team.
