Far From Home has made over one billion dollars.


And aside from Sony's monetary contribution, they really aren't the one's to credit for that success. The reported 30% that Disney asked for seems more than fair to me. Granted, I'm sure there is plenty more to the behind-the-scenes of this story either way.

I think there will be some sort of announcement at D23. Seeing Spider-Man Vs Venom would be nice though.

These f*ckers are laughing it up behind closed doors while playing with fan's expectations. This is most certainly a negotiation tactic, a very public, spicy one.
In the end Sony and Disney will settle another agreement, pat themselves on the back while the media reaps the revenue from the traffic this is generating, and will generate.

Call me the minority but I respect Sony for standing up to the Goliath. Disney wants to control everything that is pretty obvious. People are hating on Sony and seemingly do not want to believe that Disney may just have been the big bad Wolf in all this.

THR says that Disney wanted 30% of the profits, not 50%. It seems Sony is pushing the higher figure to make itself look like a victim when it was the one to walk away from negotiations. We'll find out the truth when Sony gets hacked again. In the meantime, we have more [frick]ed up Spidey sequels to look forward to.

This is why we can't have nice things.

What interesting is all these fanboys pledging allegiance to one multi-national conglomerate over another multi-national conglomerate because of a fictional character. It's really weird. Y'all are weird.

Marvel isn't even responsible for the best Spider-Man film (Into The Spider-Verse)... Hell, they aren't even responsible for the SECOND best Spider-Man film either (Spider-Man 2).

I wish somebody would volunteer to take on half my costs and all my work and still give me 50 percent of the profits.

I've always been taught watch for the people who stay silent. They always have something up there sleeve. With that said Disney must be planning something cause theyve said nothing. Also at this point just figure something out Disney and Sony. I want my boy Tom Holland and Kevin Feige to have smiles on their faces again. (I say Feige cause it seems the only thing both sides agree on is that hes been nothing but helpful).

Most people will side with Disney, for obvious fanboy reasons, but if the reports are true, then Disney truly are greedy mofos. 50 % increase for just splitting the bill on top of merchandise? Wow.

Totally OT: This site needs to migrate to better software ASAP. It has always been weird but now it's just ridiculous.

25 is reasonable. I said from the jump 75/25 makes sense.

“Tom Holland, the youthful British star who became a fan favorite, isn’t going anywhere soon”

Signed on for two more movies

Yes, Marvel obviously produces better superhero movies than Sony. But PLEASE...at this point, only a partisan nutjob would defend Disney. And Disney's silence speaks volumes.

5 percent of first dollar gross means they get five percent of the gross on the first day and then nothing else fwi

So Sony would prefer to keep 100% of their low 500-600 million worldwide gross, instead of 65% of 1.3+ billion, plus bonuses from Marvel for using their character Spider-man. They would actually have more profits staying with Marvel, instead of on their own. Way to go Sony, guess you'll learn the hard way again.

@noahthegrand

They also got to use Spidey in 3 crossover MCU movies which no doubt is a sweet deal.

Dude had a pretty sizable role in Infinity War, too.

Remember when talks fell through between Disney and Fox and Comcast was going to swoop in? It’s still early in the drama.. if I knew how to gif on here I’d be eating popcorn with Michael Jackson lol

This report doesn’t add up.

Disney no longer wanted Spidey?

Yet somehow they end up making Spider-man posters along with Captain Marvel and Iron Man at this weekends D23 expo?

Lol

I mean, there seems to be so much misinformation out there that I really don't believe, nor really care who is saying what. All I know is that I have enjoyed this Spider-Man and his adventures in the MCU so far and would prefer to continue to see those things. I'm not going to out blame on either company, this feels like old high school drama, stuff is being reported that contradicts earlier reports and each new report has new updates hours later.
