This is the re-re-reboot so Sony can pointlessly hold onto the rights to Spider-Man and company, right? I find it hard to believe that it's been profitable enough to attempt to maintain, what with the relatively weak villain-centric films no one asked for.

I can understand Tom Holland aging out of the character as they all eventually do, fine and dandy. Just seems that selling this wedge of Marvel property to Disney for a few billion might strangely be the better move.

Right there with ya. I project more into the billions, but the stubbornness persists. The notion of a unified Marvel cinematic universe continues to elude us. Oh well.

Why would Sony ever sell spiderman back, the last three spiderman movies made almost 4 billion dollars?

Worldwide box office:

Spider-Man: Homecoming - $880,166,924

Spider-Man: Far From Home - $1,131,927,996

Spider-Man: No Way Home - $1,926,899,310

Surprised no one else pointed this out, but no this is not the re-re-reboot of Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters. Tom Holland's Spidey exists in the mainline MCU and his movies have all (to this date) been made with Marvel. The godawful side character movies are what's getting rebooted.

Ominous to chose the most universally reviled spidey story. Gonna retcon all that MCU aren't ya Sony?

Iirc the first two Tom Holland movies were basically made by Marvel for Sony, since the last one it's more of a cooperation effort

You could be right, but my point stands - Holland's Spidey movies have nothing to do with the rest of the Sony films that are getting a "reboot."

For a short moment I was excited because I thought it would be the third Spiderverse movie…

I’ve gotten literal death threats for saying this before, but, I liked Brand New Day way more than anything from the JMS run. I liked the Dan Slott era way more, and Superior was a fucking blast.

Your comment is how I realized it's not :(

My care levels have plummeted

See I can understand making a deal with Mephisto to bring back Aunt Tomei.
