What ?!! I Didn't Know That .

They seem to be at an absolute loss as to what to do next. First it was TASM 3 in 2016 and #4 in 2018, then #2 came out and #3 was pushed clear to 2018 and Sinister Six filled the spot in 2016, with tons of rumored Spider-Manless spin off films happening around that time. Then after that some of the spin off films were axed, including Venom's, then the Sony hack unleashed Sony's reboot plans and the deal they were trying to get with Marvel along with Garfield's possible axing, and now that all seems scrapped, with the Sinister Six along with it as the TASM #3 is going ahead as originally planned. What a bloody mess.
Great picture indeed :D
It just gets more and more embarrassing for Sony! :-t
Sadly that sounds like common sense though! Sony does not seem to see it at all!
Yes it does make sense.

I'm not behind this Sinister Six movie at all. Nope. The point of the Sinister Six was that they were six villains who fought and lost to Spider-Man, and they teamed up because they could win as a team where they failed individually. What's their motivation in this film? They got some fancy toys from OsCorp, so they're going to fight Spider-Man because... they got some fancy toys from OsCorp?
And if they go the right route, what, are we gonna have ten minutes at the beginning of the movie of Spider-Man defeating five out of the six of them? That doesn't work well either. This movie is just a bad idea, period.
Then again... DC's making an Aquaman movie...
We also don't know just how much Spidey will be in this film, which is also a factor. Nobody wants to see a Spider-Man film without Spider-Man, or one where he gets only a brief cameo. I fear Sony are going to spend so much time on these villains that web head will be lost in the mix, and may barely show up at all.
The news regarding Sony and Spidey and Marvel these past few weeks has just been all over the place, so I don't know what to think anymore, and what updates to take seriously. At the very least, I hope Andrew is still Spidey in whatever future plans Sony has for the franchise, and if not, he got royally screwed just for speaking up and saying the truth that nobody else would.
All things considered, I'd rather just see TASM3 than a Sinister Six film. The plot line of TASM2 beckons for a continuation as soon as it can be achieved, and if Sony wait too long to head into production it may make matters even worse for them and their "brand." If nothing ever comes of this, at least they succeeded in adapting Gwen and one of the comic world's most tragic stories to the big screen with honor, redeeming the sour job Raimi's third film did to her character. I shutter to even think about their interpretation of her in that movie.
Zack Snyder Called A Radio Show To Defend AQUAMAN!

. I can't wait until people see Aquaman is a beast. The reason Aquaman is looked down on is because of the show Stupid I mean Super Friends. He was great before that show. But post that show no one read the comics. Even Batman became a joke because that show. It wasn't until the Dark Knight Returns that he got his respect back. Aquaman has had great comic story's during the eighths and nineties. Then he got reimagined again in the 2000s. Even then still people thought he sucked. He has become more famous from the New 52 but nothing really new was added. Because before that he was awesome. But for whatever reason people decided to pick up his comic series. I personally liked him more before the New 52. But what do I know. If people are starting to like him that's great.
I'm in Aquaman's corner too, exactly for the reasons you stated. He's never really been given a fair shake, but given the proper creative team, he could have his rebirth.
I have massive hope in Snyder and his team to give him a stunner of an onscreen adventure, and I think Momoa fits the build of the Aquaman I've wanted to see in a film for a long time, i.e., a tough badass with golden locks and beard who takes to task those harming the oceans with a massive trident. I think how the character was adapted in the JLA cartoon was great, and to see Momoa take on the character in a similar vein would be a dream come true:
He's characterized as a caring and protective father and loyal king to his subjects, while still able to dish out a whooping should the need arise to save his kingdom.
I very much agree. Sinister Six more than the Fantastic Four reboot. The Fantastic Four (because that name is so very original) has at least a little bit of hope behind it, in my opinion. It's been almost 10 years since Rise of the Silver Surfer, and I honestly didn't find that film bad, just not as good as the first.
Granted, The Fantastic Four would fare a little bit better if it had the X-Men film universe behind it, but I understand the reasons behind setting it in its own universe.
Sinister Six, on the other hand, has to introduce at least four new villains (if Rhino and the DeHaan Goblin are both members), and they have to do something. What would they do, if not fight Spider-Man? And if that were the case, why not just make Amazing Spider-Man 3: The Sinister Six? Why give them their own movie? After all, ASM2 was called Rise of Electro in some territories.
Sinister Six has so much against it, especially after all this rumoring and all the negative reactions to ASM2.
Glad I'm not alone!
Which is hilarious when you realize just how much they screwed up Dillon's character in that film and basically gave him no conceivable sense of character whatsoever. And of course, any of the footage they shot that deepened his character was left on the cutting room floor once the editing process began. Funny, that.
Indeed. They did the same with the Goblin's scenes, too.
I read that in the first film they cut out a lot of the stuff with Pete's parents too, and jammed it into #2 as well, like the opening plane crash scene. Apparently that was actually filmed during the first film's production.
More and more, this just tells me that Marc Webb and the cast and crew wanted these films to be, as the titles say, Amazing, and Sony just wanted average, but average with Amazing box office numbers.
(I *HATED* Gwen's death with a fiery passion even IF Kane drew it & Romita inked it).
That Raimi bypassed that whole thing was totally great with me.
AS2 just dredged it all up again, and BADLY. SONY made sure it was even worse.
Summer 1973. When I stopped being a superhero comic book fan. Four colour PTSS.
At least I still had Shang Chi...
