Hope you enjoyed seeing spider-man team with the Avengers while it lasted. This sucks. Apparently it all came down to money.

You mean the never-ending barrage of super hero movies isn't all about money?

I felt Spiderman and the Avengers weren't really a good fit together anyways. So long as they keep making Spiderman movies then I'm fine.

I never really warmed to Spiderman as a character, although I suspect that was mainly becuase of the movies Sony pumped out in the early 2000s before Tom Holland and the MCU.

Heh, I feel the opposite. Whiney conflicted recently spider man is off putting.

The last decent movie I loved with Spiderman was the one where the opening scenes he saves the people from the electro guy. Kirsten Dunst was the best MJ. The new Emo feel is grating.

I think the Marvel/Sony collaboration has given the guys at Sony enough fuel to be able to produce Spidey movies that follow the same premise for a while...its just the whole "loose ends remaining loose" that will become hard to gloss over in time - i.e. Spidey is now an Avenger. He's involved with the wider Marvel universe and the end of Far From Home cements that.

We'll wait and see, I guess.

I am looking forward to the second Venom film. I thoroughly enjoyed that...

I am still waiting for someone to make a decent Spidey movie that is actually about a superhero not the teenage angst of Peter Parker...

Will they ever let him grow up?
