Fuck Sony. At least they'll get whats coming to them - Spiderman's whole character has been built around the MCU, flatly removing that is going to make quite a bland, jarring movie.
Not to mention with it being removed from they MCU, there will be LOTS of people no longer interested in the movies anymore so really Sony is just shooting themselves in the foot. I'm never seeing another spiderman movies in theaters ever again. Fuck Sony. Fuck Venom. Fuck Morbius.
no dipshit this is called damage control
Sony realized it fucked up bad but it's too late Based Disney is going to remember this and in a few years the announcement will come that Disney is buying Sony Pictures
God I hope not
Disney deserves it for doing accounting fraud
>flatly removing that is going to make quite a bland, jarring movie.
this so fr*cking much
No one cares about Uncle Ben or Spideman villains that don't tie into the greater MCU. There's a reason no one went to see Dark Phoenix
>Usual disneybot panicking
Lol get fucked
wow so you're telling me they're going to keep making Holland Spider-Man films even though FFH only made like a billion???
youtube.com
>Spiderman's whole character has been built around the MCU
Yep, those whole 50 years he was worthless until Daddy Disney came and told me how to feel about Spiderman
this
the tom holland spiderman, you fucking spastic
trying to reboot spiderman AGAIN just after the MCU appearances, yes that's going to be fucking difficult you mongoloid
fuck Tom Holland and Fuck kevin Feige
>There's a reason no one went to see Dark Phoenix
Yes, disney sabotage.
>Disney sabotage
Or maybe it was just that people no longer cared about the X-Men franchise outside of Wolverine and Deadpool? But yes, the mouse purposely sabotaged a film they were about to own
Name one Japanese company that has sold put to Americans.
bahahahaha
how
more like just no one wanted to see it, seriously who would spend money to see Sansa's konk face not-act for an hour+ you don't even need to watch it to know it'd be bad
other superhero movies from other companies is capable of making money, even in your fantasy world the X-Men franchise isn't enough of a threat for the Mouse to care about
Japanese law prevents foreign companies from buying Japanese companies.
The last major attempt at buying a Japanese company ended with the French Automaker CEO Carlos Ghosn detained in Japan, unable to flee, as Renault tried to buy Nissan and Mitsubishi.
One of the most power car company CEOs in the world is now facing a lengthy prison sentence in Japan.
So if Marvel/Disney attempt hostile takeover, Japan will have no problem jailing anybody from Disney or Marvel if they ever set foot inside Japan.
OH NONONONO WE GOT TOO COCKY SONYBROS
Sony Pictures isn't Japanese dumbass
....so tom holland spiderman is such a weak character he cant stand without the MCU? Sounds about right.
Japan Law ia weird
...you know Sony Pictures has their offices in California, right?
Also why are you making this a pasta?
That tweet is fake news dude.
Sony is just giving random shit
Prettu based
Because he thinks it makes him sound smart
It seems to me Disney leaked the info about the dealings because they knew everyone would pile onto Sony and push them to take Disney's terms
No but its parent company is. If they want Sony Pictures they regardless have to go through the home office.
Nice try, Mousecuck
The main Sony Boss in charge of all Sony Divisions lives in Japan.
Anybody from Disney will need to fly to Japan, place their two feet on Japanese soil, and kiss the ring.
Why would Sony make a bad deal? They've got everything the other wants. They gain absolute nothing giving Disney half of everything
Disney doesn't know how Japanese companies work. Leaking info like this is not good.
Bob Iger need to drink Japanese Sake with the Sony CEO in Japan before talks can even begin.
Sony doing Sony. I wish this surprised me.
They must have the biggest idiots in the industry on their executive board to think that they can maintain the success withouth the attachment to the MCU and Feige.
Their level of arrogance is off the flippin charts.
It'll be the equivalent of a reputable construction compny building a skyscraper and then the local government coming in and saying "we got it from here" and finishing it off with popsicle sticks and hot glue.
Jesus Christ you're either retarded or baiting. Either way stay seething mouse tards
I don't know but that's probably why Disney leaked. Now everyone is talking about how bad a move it would be. At the very least it's bad PR
I'm so mad we're gonna have to deal with this insane autist spamming shit about how Disney has to go to Japan and then they'll get arrested or whatever the fuck they're on about now
I mean it's about as real as the original announcement

Sony is a joint stock company.
The "boss" isn't worth a shit, unlike the shareholders who actually own the company.
Why are you talking about things you barely understand? "Kiss the ring"? What kind of retarded vision you have of the world we live in?
Not even saying that they would have any interest in buying a company full of debts like Sony.
>The main Sony Boss in charge of all Sony Divisions lives in Japan.
And he's been wanting to get rid of the studio for years you stupid fuck
If anything he'll kiss Iger's ring and beg him to take it
>Not even saying that they would have any interest in buying a company full of debts like Sony.
Debts don't matter this is personal now
Why don't they just make a tv show? Spidey movies just don't have the "weight" that other characters seem to carry.
>Based Disney
Literally end your pathetic existence for the sin of typing those two words together.
Fake 2017 shit.
You retard.
why you deleted my comment Janny? u mad?
>One source said that a deal might still be reached between Disney and Sony. Disney is believed to have expressed concerns that Feige was spread too thin due to other Marvel projects plus original projects for Disney Plus.
> the dispute is allegedly over a producer credit
that's your "producer without name" silly disneycuck
They're riding high off Venom and FFH doing especially well. Keep in mind these are the same people that, even within the same e-mail, mentioned that while ASM2 only pulled in ~34 million in profits, they could still -totally- make 2 billion off a Sinister Six movie.
>disney buys sony's tv and film division
>feige fires pascal minute 1
>Sony Pictures Entertainment Inc. (known simply as Sony Pictures and abbreviated as SPE) is an AMERICAN entertainment company
>Through an intermediate holding company called Sony Film Holding Inc., it is operated as a subsidiary of Sony Entertainment Inc., which is itself A WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY of the Tokyo-based multinational technology and media conglomerate Sony Corporation
I hate it when you dumb faggots argue about shit you have no understanding of. Yes Sony Pictures is based in California, but it is owned by Sony, a Japanese company. Whether Disney can buy them or not won't be decided here, it'll be decided in a court because of the unique circumstances of Sony Pictures' incorporation.
It seems it was Disney who declined any further deals.
>"Sony insiders counter that Rothman did offer compromises but Disney declined"
This feels like just another phase of negotiations, the point where both sides claim they can't make a deal and they're totally fine walking away from the table, all while hoping/praying the other side caves a little and sweetens the deal.
Disney has altered the deal. Pray they don't alter it any further.
Disney ironed out the James Gunn shit and bought back FF and the X-Men, I don't doubt their ability to play a bunch of chumps that are Sony's execs
too good to happen
This. And they did this while coming out on top, so I don't see how this is a done deal. They're probably just waiting for Sony to cave in.
all while making suffer the fans!
Wasn't he her assistant once? It'd be pottery of the highest caliber
They won't be buying it because it doesn't make any sense, but Sony Pictures has their legal offices in USA and they are on the stock market.
Foreign's law isn't worth shit, if someone would want to do an aggressive take-over, they would be able to do it (over the Studios, not the whole company)
>legitimately believe Dark Phoenix was going to be good and Disney sabotaged it

In 1997 the director signed a distribution deal with Disney. It was to prove a springboard to global renown, paving the way for a dedicated exhibition at New York's Museum of Modern Art and helping him secure the 2003 Oscar for Spirited Away. Even so, the nature of Miyazaki's films has been tweaked in transit. In Japan his films are blockbusters the whole family can enjoy. In Britain and the US he remains a predominantly adult, art-house phenomenon.
Miyazaki taps a cigarette from a silver case. The Disney deal suits him, he explains, because he has stuck to his guns. His refusal to grant merchandising rights means that there is no chance of any Nausicaa happy meals or Spirited Away video games. Furthermore, Disney wields no creative control. There is a rumour that when Harvey Weinstein was charged with handling the US release of Princess Mononoke, Miyazaki sent him a samurai sword in the post. Attached to the blade was a stark message: "No cuts."
The director chortles. "Actually, my producer did that. Although I did go to New York to meet this man, this Harvey Weinstein, and I was bombarded with this aggressive attack, all these demands for cuts." He smiles. "I defeated him."
Among the many things for which former Hollywood mogul and alleged predator Harvey Weinstein was notorious were re-editing movies as he saw fit, earning the nickname “Harvey Scissorhands.” But when Weinstein was handling Princess Mononoke’s US release, Studio Ghibli wouldn’t be bullied and sent Weinstein a samurai sword with the words “No cuts” to prove it.
Back in a 2005 interview recently reposted by Metro, SoraNews and Kobini, Studio Ghibli’s Hayao Miyazaki told The Guardian about the experience. At that time, Disney had the rights to Princess Mononoke in the United States, and Harvey Weinstein, who then headed up Disney subsidiary Miramax Films, was overseeing its release.
Jesus fucking Christ. I’m not too fond of Disney. But yeah, a movie that nobody cared about seeing and also was practically a more worse retelling of The Last Stand written by the same guy who did that, yeah it was totally Disney’s fault on that one.
This.
FUCK SONY.
AND FUCK SONY SHILLS.
>Yes, disney sabotage.
Dude they sabotaged themselves with the expensive reshoots (including a scene that was pretty much lifted from Captain Marvel) and the limited worldwide release. It's like they didn't even want their money back.
Pretending this was in any way caused by Disney when their first trailer was downright terrible is naive at best.
>have an interview when FFH came out with Pascal saying they were working on Spider Man 3 already
Don't be surprised if they end up announcing that it was all just exaggeration, I'm surprised they announce it like this with no official statement from both studios
Well duh, these negotiations take a while. Don't be stupid and fall for "sources say". I'm still waiting for Man of steel 2 with MBJ.
>but it's parent company is
Sony as a whole abandoned Japan and moved to New Cali. Besides they won't be losing much if they lose Sony Pictures, they can still make movies with their gaming division.
>the dispute is allegedly over a producer credit
If it turns out Sony just wants to stop crediting Stan Lee, fuck 'em. He sold them those rights, he earned that credit, pay his damn estate the money and get back to work.
Nice delusion mouse cuck
A lot of faggots spew this shit but it's not the way it actually is
And the reality is that someone could buy Columbia Pictures and then right there all the Spider Man rights revert back to Marvel
Its time to step up
>no dipshit this is called damage control
But Sony can't use Damage Control anymore either!
Would the mouse have the balls for an hostile takeover over Spiderman?
Yeah if we get a fourth fucking Spider-Man, I'm done watching Spider-Man movies.
the fuckin shit is over its done deal with it
This. If Holland Spider-man sucks because he's Tony's sidekick and everything is so tied to Iron Man and the MCU how the fuck are they going to continue with an abrupt cutting out of all those elements? You're consigning the movie to be obviously studio mandated and missing most of its fingerprint.
So either reboot, a shitty movie, or maybe just maybe the MCU stuff wasn't as bad as Yea Forums claimed
i wanna eat marisa tomei out
FFH saw most of the profit go to Sony, which is why Disney wanted a 50/50 split.
>Japanese law prevents foreign companies from buying Japanese companies.
>This fucking meme again
I'm sick and tired of you Yea Forumstards saying this, either come up with a source or stop spreading lies.
>He was arrested at Haneda Airport on 19 November 2018, on allegations of under-reporting his earnings and misuse of company assets
>Tokyo on 4 April 2019 over new charges of misappropriations of Nissan funds.
Now piss off
>implying anyone wants to see X-men 3 2.0
>Disney declined
Now I'm worried for Sony
Fuck Disney
>Spiderman's whole character has been built around the MCU, flatly removing that is going to make quite a bland, jarring movie.
Especially Tony Stark but it's really the ONLY thing that this version of the character has going for him. So yes, remove that and he's nothing, he can't support his own movie by himself. The MCU connection is needed.
Disney wanted 50% or the partnership would end
>as a whole
Goes to show how little Yea Forums does research.
Disney would've had more to gain by Dark Phoenix doing well than it bombing like it did. Now there's zero hype around the X-Men IP and Disney is going to have to wait the better part of a decade before the audience recovers from mutant burn-out.
>proof = my ass.
>lies
You get a source lazy ass.
>Disney would've had more to gain by Dark Phoenix doing well than it bombing like it did
This. According to the sources from the shareholder meeting in Fox, they were disappointed by Fox's performance and the losses involved in the last two X-Men movies (including one that they don't even know when/how to release it). Pretending that Disney would sabotage a future sale even though it would mean taking all the debts said failures would entail shows a clear misunderstanding of how these companies are ran.
>Spidey can no longer stand on his own two feet without the mcu's help
how pathetic.
>tom spidey cant stand without the MCU
just like you, pathetic.
And they somehow shot the billion-dollar Star Wars franchise in the proverbial knee, never doubt their ability to sabotage themselves.
Well, time for a reboot, we got literally nothing to lose.
>konk
Ok, I know it's an insult and british slang most likely, but what does it mean?
>*gargle gargle* mouse cock good *choking noises*
based
>Fuck Sony. Fuck Venom. Fuck Morbius.
agreed
wait ... is that why you hate Disney so much? you're jealous that someone is sucking off your dad? you hate your mom wut?? hahaha
>Name one Japanese company that has sold put to Americans.
It doesn't have to be Disney buying Sony. Sony Pictures is hemorrhaging money. It's one of their worst divisions. Playstation is one of their better ones. I can see Sony liquidating their movie division to Disney to get it out of their hair and apply those resources and money to better divisions. Maybe they could even hope to sweeten deals with their better performing game division.
Why would they sell their most important franchise for pennies.
>in before not for pennies
Then Disney won't buy it.
lol seething
Where is it then?
How's their music division doing? But Disney buying Sony pictures has to be some violation of antitrust laws
Nothing's stopping them from buying the studio, taking back the rights, and then splitting the studio off. The rights are more important than the studio.
No because Sony Pictures isn't doing well at all and buying them over just one successful IP they have would be extremely dumb.
Sony rep says me believe me guys they said it
>Spiderman's whole character has been built around the MCU
Eat a dick. Some of were reading the comics YEARS before this "shared movie universe" nonsense.
Its calles Sony Playstation you dumbass they are never going broke because of it
Sony is headquartered in America. They haven't been Japanese in YEARS.
Your mouth is firmly on that Mick Dick, user?
Dumbass doesnt realize its the same company of Asthe PS4
Fuck Disney.
Let their movieverse burn.
Shitsney isnt based, shill
Sony just released an official dichiaration saying the negotiations where about Sony wanting Feige to produce the next movie.
Sony is headquartered in America. They're not Japanese.
