A lot of people view her as Tom DeFalco's baby. DeFalco based Peter and Mayday's relationship on the relationship between his brother and his brother's daughter.

(There's also Marvel's continued insistence on making Peter seem "YOUNG". That makes a teenage daughter the kind of character they don't want to promote even if she is from an alternate universe.)

How will this tie into Tom's story?

I mean, we don't really know who the villain of this movie really is, do we? If the Multiverse really does come into play here, then there must be a cause for it. What Spidey bad guy can tap into the Multiverse? Seems like whoever that is will pull in other Spidey villains to go after Peter and then the other 2 Peter's will arrive via Doctor Strange to help him out.

Honestly, Topher Grace was a bad Venom but an excellent Carnage.

He was perfectly fine for what the movie needed him to be - a petulant Anti-Peter. The insanely rushed and underdeveloped exposition of who he is though? "I'm Eddie Brock. I'm a reporter. Oh also, I'm dating your daughter." Just... just what the fuck.

Raimi really had no interest in this guy, but then goes on to emphasize the wrong plotlines and rush others. And I get the story behind why, but...

Man, Spider-Man 3 is interesting for all the wrong reasons.

You know what? I know that she won't be there but I wish that all this meant that Madame-Web had a decent shot of showing up.

I never thought we'd get Morlun to appear in film.

Really disliked MJ in Spiderman 3, but it wasn't Kirsten's fault, that movie was an entire mess.

Give Tobey all the money, he needs to be in this.

Really hope they use this opportunity to tie off his story with a happy ending instead of Luke/Leia/Han-ing him.

Yeah it's weird...while I personally share Raimi's antipathy for Venom, that character being foisted in him by the studio does nothing to explain why he seemingly went out of his way to needlessly complicate other characters and storylines. It's a shame to because the ultimate heart of the story, that you have these three people who have become estranged, who need to learn to forgive before it destroys them, I still think there's something genuinely compelling there.

If the MCU can actually obtain Tobey's services, would he be the best caliber actor in their history?

Her and the MC2 as a whole was born of an era that the Marvel has kind of long since moved on from. And Marvel would never do for Peter what they do for Scott and Jean in having one of their time displaced kids running around in the main universe.

This is definitely Sony just trying to ape their own success with Spider-Verse, and it would be a disaster without Feigi and co. I'd much rather see Kraven.

If you're giving credit to Feige, you best believe he planned this multiverse shit before Sony's own Spider-Verse.

And people thought Spiderman 3 was too crammed with plots because they featured two villains. I honestly can't see this being an amazing film. (Heh).

The hell? So they are going Multiverse/Spiderverse with this? I thought the next Dr. Strange movie was the only one doing that?
Makes sense though, to save MCU Peters identity ,one of the other two Spidermen will probably appear in person with Holland Peter Parker - "See! I'm not Spiderman! He's right here!" Then Tobey/Garfield Spiderman swings off with Tom Holland standing there.

God dammit, I grew up with and loved the Raimi Spider-Man movies too but why are y'all so weird about this.

Multi-verse? Yeah. Characters from past Sony movies being shoehorned into an MCU Spider-Man movie? I highly doubt it.

Yeah this whole Spider-verse take has Sony's paw prints all over it. It legitimizes their efforts with SUMC, serves as a giant celebration of their previous movie attempts, and could potentially end by whisking Holland out of the MCU. Feige may be the one behind the wheel but I'd be surprised if this was his map considering the only thing he really gets is not getting Spidey completely ripped out of his hands.

Please don't fuck this up, this has the potential to be incredible. My only concern is that whilst I like the actors from Spider-Man it was raimi who made the movies what they were. Hopefully some of that magic still carries over.

There's probably going to be a scene where Tobey and Andrew unmask themselves to show that Spiderman isn't Tom Holland. Calling it right now.

Because the Avengers movies were so bad juggling six heroes in the first film and then like, 40 in the last one

It's about how you use the characters, not how many there are. Marvel figured out that problem a long time ago
