I probably posted about this before at least once, but: when law enforcement agents or lawyers are presenting a file to someone, they always just toss it on the person's desk. That's just rude. They are right there. Hand it to them.

Basebf555 posted:Well they are unnecessary(to the plot). Both are characters that barely appear in the movie and really don't have a lot of connection to the plot in any meaningful way. The fact that they're based on real life events doesn't seem to me to be relevant here. Goodfellas and Casino aren't docudramas. Samual l Jackson’s death was tied into the plot as it is the start of robert De Niro’s character killing all the loose ends.

If you didn't see Captain Marvel this probably won't make sense. Fury was replaced by the main Skrull dude. He leaves a voicemail for the actual Fury telling him about the stuff that has happened. The movie then cuts to Fury listening to the voicemail while chilling on a beach. As the camera pans out we see that it is not an actual beach, merely a room simulating a beach. The camera keeps panning out and Fury is on a space station/ship with a lot of people working in the background. He then asks who took his shoes. The end.

My guess is that they'll be doing Secret Wars next, just so we can get the alien symbiote on Spider-Man, then get the Venom storyline. Oh, and it makes for an easy way to introduce the Fantastic Four/Galactus. Hell, we still haven't seen Adam Warlock yet & he was teased back in Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

yeah, a big part of the point of the Fox merger was to loophole themselves the rights to X-Men/Fantastic Four/as much of whatever else Fox has had their grimy fingers all over for the past couple decades as they can get their hands on. Now they just have to slot everything into the main MCU, which you can see the groundwork for in several of the more recent films

Pilchenstein posted:Disney don't have the rights for that, do they? They do, what they dont have the rights to is Venom. I didnt see the Venom movie that came out recently (I thought it looked terrible, but a lot of my comic book fan friends seemed to think it looked amazing, but then I've always been a little meh on Venom as a character). If it performed poorly then Sony might licence Marvel back the rights to Venom, like they have with Spider-Man. If it performed well then its full steam ahead on the sony spider-man-characters-without-spider-man-verse. I reckon the reason adam warlock was teased then nothing came of it was probably because he could have been pencilled in to be in Guardians 3, but then that got delayed due to the whole thing with Gunn being fired. Or it was a random tease for the comic fans that was never intended come to anything (like Howard the Duck) or that the plans simply changed (Like The Leader being teased in Hulk).

That's not quite what the deal is. Marvel can use Spider-Man in exchange for Sony being able to use MCU characters, but Sony makes 100% of the money from Spider-Man stuff and Marvel gets 100% of MCU stuff he's in. Sony still made Homecoming and Far From Home.

Venom made a shitload of money, so I have no doubt they're trying to make a franchise or at least a sequel out of it. Honestly I think it'd be cool to have Tom Hardy in the MCU how they currently have spider-man in it.

The real  thing would be for MCU Peter to work at the Daily Bugle in the next Spider-Man movie, have him meet Tom Hardy's Eddie Brock, do the "Sin Ester" storyline, have Brock leave, then have it segue into Sony's 1st Venom storyline.

Sony and Disney co-produced the MCU spider-man films, then Sony distributed them*. As far as I know Sony couldnt have just put Captain America in the Venom film or anything. Tom Holland is contracted with Marvel/Disney, not Sony. I'm probably wrong about the exact contractual/legal/licensing situation but the gist stil seems to bel "Sony owns the rights to make spider-man movies. In exchange for money/share of the profits/co-production with marvel they let the property be used by disney.". *I was always told the reason they didnt make a Ruffalo Hulk film is that Universal still have the rights to distribute any solo Hulk movie and after MCU movies started smashing box office records they ddint want to give anyone else the distribution. I guess Spider-man is more important than the hulk to make it worth it. Still, this way we got a stealth planet hulk movie in Thor Ragnarok so I'm not complaining.

I've just looked it up, they are planning a Morbius the Living Vampire movie and Venom 2 for 2020, with other movies to follow.

Yea you really can't trust anything Henry Hill says, he was a pathological liar. Towards the end of his life he was a regular phone caller to the Howard Stern Show and he was still non-stop lying even then, about stupid poo poo too.

Venom was fun in an exuberantly dumb way. That version of Eddie Brock was way older-looking than both the Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland Spider-Men, was based in San Fransisco rather than New York, and didn't reference any other Marvel or supernatural stuff. Also (Far from Home spoiler), The Daily Bugle outs Peter as Spider-Man in the mid-credits, so that's going to be a snag in starting a journalism career. Still, those aren't insurmountable obstacles.
