Sony doesn't have a role in the Avengers movies. Sony doesn't make a cent from the use of Spider-Man on the movies.

Disney make money of the Spider Man movie even though they don't participate in it, they take all the money on the merchandise and wanted to make more money on the movie by forcing Sony to allow them to participate on it. So they were butting in and demanding more, and want to be seem as good guys in it.

Did I read that right? I thought someone said that Sony made 1.1 billion on a Spider-man movie that Disney *they themselves made, and Disney wanted more. This doesn't seem accurate.

You read it WRONG :P


Sony made 1.1bn on their own Spiderman movie  (we re not talking about avengers or the like here).
Not something disney makes.

Basically Sony does all the hard work, makeing the entire movie, putting in the risk (capital/funding) and production ect.
And disney comes along and says "give us 50%" (or we take away your movie director + wont allow spiderman in MCU movies anymore).

This isnt about the MCU, but the Spiderman movies that Sony themselves make.
Disney wants 50% of the profits sony makes on them..... dispite Sony owning the IP and doing everything themselves for the movie.


Disney is basically bullying them for no reason, when its clear they dont deserve to just magically get 50% of the profits for no reason.
Yet in this thread, you see people writeing "screw sony" ect. and sideing with Disney.
