Because it worked so well for Spider-Man 3 and both ASM movies.

And both Ghost Rider movies, even though they're not apart of the Spidey universe. They still count because they're Sony (standalone) films.

LOL. 

Wasn't only the first Ghost Rider made by Sony? I can't see any information about them making the 2nd one. 

Nope, it was distributed by Columbia, which is owned by Sony, so still a Sony film.

Spiderman should have been a public domain character by now but Disney lobbied against it

Not gonna lie, I don't care whose fault it is, I just want to see all Marvel properties and IPs controlled by one corporate entity. Doesn't have to be Disney, but if they can get it done, fine. Tired of seeing Spiderman separated from the rest like this. Better yet, actually, if I had a magic wand, I'd put all Marvel IPs into the public domain. Then I could actually enjoy every company's attempt at a cinematic universe, all in one lifetime.

Same here. Also, not just Spiderman, but to a lesser degree also the Hulk (Disney doesn't own the publishing rights of Hulk movies, hence why there's only one in the MCU)

And like I said in a previous post, I think Disney has gotten too big and needs to be cut down to size, preferably by making Marvel, including Marvel studios and all IP and ongoing contracts, it's own entity again, completely separate from Disney.

I agree, Disney is too big. Ignoring the magic wand and focusing on something more realistic, Marvel is very successful, so a fair breakup of Disney into Disney and Marvel, giving Marvel all the rights to Marvel properties that Disney currently owns, and all the value generated by those properties, would give them plenty head start to acquire the rest of their missing properties. Then they could just partner with Disney, Sony, or whoever else as necessary to make the movies, with them owning the IPs and licensing them to whoever is making the movie for them, under their direction.

Disney has lauched a bot army to attack Sony tonight using #SaveSpiderman Tons of identical tweets coming from crooked "Disney Ops"

Now #SaveSpidermanFromSony is trending and the "Sony attack tweets" are getting 5k-20k likes in the last 3-6 hours. Disney's pulling ops to place social media pressure on Sony to fold. Walt Disney would fire crooked Bob Iger on the spot if he was still around today.

After Amazon (who's twitter army was rather weak) Disney's army is doing much better. 

Gross. Not surprising though. I just saw Jeremy Renner, the one true Bourne, weigh in on the situation. Seems to think this 100% on Sony.

He's either schilling for his overlords, or an idiot.

Why not both? Usually I don't regard actors as genius.

Ha. Could be. I really don't know much about the guy, but was unimpressed with his take on this situation to say the least.

Hey @sonypictures we want Spider-Man back to @therealstanlee and @Marvel please, thank you #congrats #spidermanrocks #🏹 #please"

All the other quotes in the linked article seem to be from other people not to mention I'm sure his publicist has someone hired to run that twitter account...

I'm not sure what you're seeing that I'm not. The article headline: Avengers star Jeremy Renner slams Sony over fued with Disney, Marvel, may be overstating the matter, but it's not inaccurate in presenting his take as to to who's at fault. He puts the onus for Spider-Man's exit from the MCU squarely on Sony. And whether or not it's him or his publicist is irrelavant. The name of his Twitter account is renner4real. If he can't back up what he says on twitter because his gacked-up publicist wrote it, he should change his name to something more ambiguous. Too bad punctuation isn't allowed in handles. renner4real? would fit the bill.
