I know, I'm going to save my money and not see the next installment if it's strictly Sony involvement
What do you mean by "twice"? The original trilogy was a success, though too much meddling from the suits messed up the final movie. [Reply]

Venom shoehorned in the 3rd installment that Raimi was preasued to include by the Sony executives.
The Amazing Spider-Man sequel was such a shitshow they ended that continuity.
Brandon Routh's Suoerman Returns was also a box office success, but the fans ostracized it to the point where it took 7 years to resurrect the Franchise [Reply]

Also Ms. Marvel, She Hulk and Moon Knight announced streaming series! On Disney+ So pumped. Ms. Marvel confirmed to show up in a future movie.
If this weren't the new woke MsheU I would be excited. Moon Knight would have been perfect for a Netflix show. And when Peter David wrote She Hulk and the book was a very sarcastic comedy based adventure series (think a toned down Deadpool) I really liked it. [Reply]

Thanks for the reply, as I wasn't sure where you were going with your post. But Marvel's had some relative duds, too, and Sony did have the first two Spider Man entries, so I'm not sure it should be viewed as cut and dry Marvel = Good, No Marvel = Bad.
But, we'll see what the future holds. For me, Spider-man not being in the upcoming Marvel Wokeverse is not something I automatically view as a negative. In fact, keeping the web slinger out of that may be a very smart move for Sony. [Reply]
I think the argument is that Sony's meddling impacted the Raimiverse so much that it not only tainted Spiderman 3, but it destroyed the chances of a Spiderman 4 and 5 in that universe (which Tobey, Kirsten and Raimi were all originally on board to do).
Still, Spiderman 2 is a solid, solid flick from that universe and still holds its own after the advent of the Nolan era and the Marvelverse. It's hokey, but it wears that hokeyness on its sleeve and balances that out with fantastic performances from Maguire and Molina. [Reply]

I just watched last weekend. Didn't enjoy it that much while watching, but as I've been thinking about it this week, I really like it. Need to watch it again. [Reply]
