The twitter reactions are honestly worrying me. People are really more fucking stupid then i thought.
They sure are. Amazing how many people are ignorant of what profit entitlements come with co-financing deals.37 pages in and people are still taking about this "50% of the profits" stuff. It's 50/50 co-financing, we don't have the details on the rest yet. Some are charging really hard for one company or the other and it's quite strange.
Lol. Leak the receipts. Era would explode if they found out they Feige was a part of Spider-Verses success.
The absolute worst. Hope Sony stands their ground. Last thing we need is Disney getting even more control of the film industry.
Omg, I don't...... What do you think Disney doing this for?Thanks, corporate greed! Ruining our real lives, and also our escapism!
There's a reason they made Zendaya Michelle and not Mary Jane. Peter dies and now she can take over in the MCU. Lol
For Sony to justify giving away 1/2 their profit, assuming they on their own are quite capable of making Spider-Man movies that gross lets say $850-$900 million on their own ... it would mean the Marvel Spidey pics would need to be pulling $1.7-$1.8 billion each ... and sorry but MCU has nowhere near that kind of box office catchet outside of the Avengers all-star films.
The strength MCU has in just stand alone superhero films is kind of overblown, they are consistent but they can only reliable pull over $1.3 billion with Avengers.
It doesn't make any business sense for Sony, I know some people want to harp on them, but giving away half your profit for a $1.1 billion film when you probably could've made $900-$1 billion on your own and kept 100% of that is simply stupid business.
It'd be like Nintendo agreeing to give 1/2 their profits to Microsoft in some kind of product deal so that the Switch can sell maybe 110 million units instead of 100 million.
The tweets going wild too, people be sillyCan't tell if he's joking or not. .....please tell me he's joking.
The Buzzfeed article says the following:37 pages in and people are still taking about this "50% of the profits" stuff. It's 50/50 co-financing, we don't have the details on the rest yet. Some are charging really hard for one company or the other and it's quite strange.
Omg, I don't...... What do you think Disney do this for? Why did they purchase Fox assets?
Really? Taking bubbles to extreme heights.Yes, and sharing off site content from a user is ban worthy. so you better watch out what posts you quote.
What? Why would Sony agree to a 50% split when they own the IP (as far as movies go)? I get it that MCU fans are mad, but this is definitely not on Sony.
Either way, Disney is just pushing to see how far they can go. I'm sure there's going to be a deal in the end.
Sony was 100% financing the Spider-Man movies anyway, not Disney.It's not 50% of the profits. It's Sony paying 50% of the production costs.
Disney purchases FOX and fired all those thousands of people so the Fantastic 4 could be FREE!!!!
Disney totally the good guys there.
I mean Tony Stark literally passed the torch. The storylines would be all sorts of wrecked.Sounds like it's still being negotiated. I'm hopeful it will get worked out.
wait i thought sony owns the game rights?!Disney is gonna take the Spidey license away from Insomniac now.
He's also responsible for X-Men 3 and Origins turning out as bad as they did.Tom Rothman, the guy at the Helm of Sonys Motion Pictures Group was previously at Fox and is (partly?) responsible for fantastic four and trying to not get Deadpool made.
I keep my hopes in check
I don't know about that. TASM2 has a better suit that the MCU versions.
They do.

Lol. We're joking in an Era thread relax.
Maybe they'll pull a Gunn, walk away for a few months, keep developing in secret, and then reveal they worked everything out so stock prices can shoot up for everyone!Sounds like it's still being negotiated. I'm hopeful it will get worked out.
I would just like to say on behalf of all MCU fans (I polled them all independently) we have decided to release and disavow ManaByte
thank you for understanding
Pretty sure even at a 50 50 split far from home would have been more profitable than the amazing spiderman series
I'd be totally fine with this.There's a reason they made Zendaya Michelle and not Mary Jane. Peter dies and now she can take over in the MCU. Lol
I hate the X-MenWell, if this does come to pass, just imagine how glorious it will feel in a few years when the live action X-Men charge into battle to the 90s cartoon theme song in full orchestral arrangement.
Some people say, 'I hate to say I told you so'.
Not me, I don't feel that way.
Toldya!
Can't tell if he's joking or not. .....please tell me he's joking.
