Well right off the bat it’s all connecting on with Venom and likely Morbius. Venom was crap and the last three Spider-Man films they’ve done on their own have sucked.Even if they're good?
Maybe they’ll surprise me.

Live action is where the conversation is at.I mean, the last Spider-Man film they made was the best Spider-Man film and an Oscar winner
Okay. The fact of the matter is they just showed the studio is capable of creating top-flight, master class Spider-Man content.Live action is where the conversation is at.

The team on Sony Animation is completely different than the team that will be working on the live action movies.Okay. The fact of the matter is they just showed the studio is capable of creating top-flight, master class Spider-Man content.
Point is, Spider-Man 3 and both Amazing Spider-Man movies were mediocre to bad.
Regardless of what the deal was, Sony is really shooting themselves in the foot here. The future of Spider-man (At least the live action version) is the MCU. Far From Home was their highest-grossing film ever because it was in the MCU. Take that away, and there goes their success. #boycottsony is already blowing up on Twitter. Sony you had Venom and Spider-verse but you got a little greedy. It's unfortunate that by the time Sony learns they they need the MCU to make live-action Spider-man successful, it will be too late. The MCU will have already moved on.

Sure, no doubt. If the same people were to lead new movies, I'd be worried.
How in the world is Sony the ones being greedy here when Disney was trying to shake them down for 50% of their biggest franchise? lol
Two, Disney didn't really try to necessarily shakedown - they didn't demand 50% of the franchise, they asked to co-finance 50% of the movie (which they currently weren't paying for... anything), in exchange for the larger 50% cut. Sony did not negotiate.
Personally I think this was the weakest part of the newer Spider-Man movies...so I can't say I'm all that disappointed in losing them.
You're pretty much the minority opinion on that one. Homecoming and Far From Home have made so much bank because - aside from being great films due to Feige and Marvel Studios' involvement - they're part of something bigger. We've had five live-action movies of Spider-Man being on his own, and look how that turned out: Two great movies and three poorly-received to terrible ones.
Sure, but I think Sony's realized now that a solo Spiderman universe can only go so far...You're pretty much the minority opinion on that one.

Audiences love the MCU Spider-Man. That's a whole reason why audiences cried at the end of Infinity War, went nuts when he showed up and Tony hugged him in Endgame, or why Far From Home became not only a billion dollar movie and the highest Spidey movie ever, but Sony's highest grossing movie ever.
Sony has a track record of mismanaging the character. Into the Spider-verse is one thing, as amazing as it is, but live-action? Spider-Man has succeeded in the last few years and clicked with so many people thanks to Marvel Studios and the MCU.
Spider-Man is *all* Sony has. No matter what, that kind of negotiation is a non-starter. I don't blame Sony for telling Disney to shove it.
They have Jumanji now (assuming the second performs), but otherwise, yeah, this is a real issue for them. I'm not suggesting Sony was wrong to reject Disney's offer - far from it, I don't know the breakdown of payouts and I'm sure they did their own formulations - but I think we are underestimating how badly Sony frequently screws up its own blockbusters without outside guidance and/or sheer dumb luck. The Dark Tower, for example, still looms in my mind.

The production company won’t change so likely Holland and the creative team won’t. Just Disney/Feige isn’t part of the overall vision.
