Walt Disney Studios

Do you think Disney will be smart and try having it debut the exact day when avatar: fire and ash comes out?

What other shows or specials are most likely to get one in the future basically what Disney plus Mcu installments are most likely to go physical?

What would happen if a chestburster from alien came out of Deadpool, would it become unkillable because they can inherit certain traits, deadpool would live but still.

Because this year is Disney’s 100 year celebration, I would like to discuss MCU nostalgia.

For Phase 1, probably the most nostalgia is seeing the iron man teaser after the movie in my transformers dvd from 2007.

Phase 2 is probably seeing the age of Ultron teaser, and knowing how serious Ultron got in the comics.

Phase 3 is probably watching Ragnarok in theaters, I don’t know why, I don’t even think it is one of the best, I just had a fun time.

Now I ask you if you care to share some of your MCU nostalgia?

I'm not sure if Ned is property of Sony or Disney, but if Spider-Man is going to get it's own show, why Ned would not?

SPOILERS FOR SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME

I want to see him rediscovering his magic, he freaking opened a portal without any kind of training, i need to see that again!!!

It would be nice to have one place to discuss all the announcements and events today. So here is this post.

Today, my fellow Spider-Man and MCU fans, is the 5th year anniversary of the amazing deal between Disney and Sony that allowed everyone's favorite wall-crawler to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It's been half a decade since Spider-Man join the MCU, and in that short amount of time, has had 5 MCU appearances, including two solo movies and three team up films with the Avengers. Tom Holland has been playing Spider-Man longer than the previous two actors, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, and has instantly become the most beloved live action iteration of the character due to his charm, kindness, and fun personality as both Peter Parker and Spider-Man. Spider-Man's popularity has increased heavily thanks to his appearance in the MCU and this deal between Disney and Sony to share the character has benefited both studios, as well as the fans. There have been a few hiccups, most recently the temporary split between Disney and Sony that took Spider-Man out of the MCU. But, thanks to Bob Iger and Tom Rothman cooperating with one another, as well as Tom Holland's drunken call to the Disney CEO himself, the deal has been extended for two more MCU appearances. Though, it is a high possibility that the deal could be extended even more after that, hopefully giving Marvel Studios more freedom to do whatever they want with Spider-Man and his characters in the MCU without any limitations from Sony.

Anyways, I just wanted to say this quick little post to celebrate the awesome 5 years we've had with Spider-Man in the MCU, and here's hoping to another 5 more, and possibly even more after that if Disney and Sony continue to play nice (or Disney just buys back Spider-Man permanently. Whichever comes first). Anyways, I want you guys to tell me your favorite MCU Spider-Man moments in the comments below, and tell me exactly what you hope to see in the future of the MCU regarding Spider-Man, his story, and his characters. Me, I'm hoping to see Oscorp finally appear so Norman Osborn can set up the Dark Avengers, and eventually become the Green Goblin. Also, I really hope that we see the Sinister Six appear in the MCU really soon. And I hope to see fan favorites like Black Cat, Silver Sable, Miles Morales, Spider-Gwen, Spider-Man 2099, and Spider-Man Noir, for example, appear in future MCU Spider-Man films or crossovers.

Spider-Man 3 is scheduled to be released on July 16, 2021, and we still don't know anything about the film other than it will deal with Peter being on the run after Mysterio framed him for murder and revealed his identity to the public. There's been rumors about what the film could be doing and who might be appearing in it, but nothing is concrete. This gives me the opportunity to address the top 10 things that I would like to see in the 3rd installment of the MCU Spider-Man trilogy.

10. A darker tone

One of the things I love about the MCU Spider-Man films is that it blends high school comedy and superhero action and gives us films that are both funny and badass. FFH is probably the most fun I had watching a Spider-Man movie in a while (besides ITSV), but in the case of Spider-Man 3, I think it's best if the film went for a more serious tone. Now, don't get me wrong, I still want to see humor in this film, as it's my favorite aspect of the Spider-Man movies, but with Peter going on the run and fighting for his freedom, innocence, and life, this calls for a more drastic and dramatic/serious tone. Almost like The Winter Soldier or Black Panther or Doctor Strange.

9. A more harden/mature Peter Parker

One of the complaints that MCU Peter Parker has gotten from fans is that he's too nice, gullible, naive, and immature, even for a teenager. Some fans also think that he's too trusting, like when he trust Mysterio enough to give him EDITH after knowing him for two days. I, personally, don't have these problems with Peter, but some do. So, for Spider-Man 3, we need to see Peter Parker complete his journey of a boy becoming a man. We need to see a Peter Parker who's less trusting of people since Mysterio betrayed him. A Peter Parker who's more hesitant to dawn the red and blue suit and starts seeing it as a curse. A Peter Parker who will try to push people out of his life in order to keep them safe and to prevent people from getting the better of him again. A Peter who is willing to get more aggressive if the situation calls for it. Spider-Man needs to feel less of a thrill for Peter and more of a hindrance for him.

8. Kraven the Hunter should be the villain

With the world hunting Peter down, it's obvious that Peter needs to stay out of sight in order for him, his friends, and Aunt May to be safe. Because of this, we need a villain that will challenge Peter on both a physical and psychological scale. Someone that will push him to his absolute limit. We need Kraven the Hunter. Kraven hunting down Peter would make for the perfect on-the-run story that I hope Marvel and Sony go for in Spider-Man 3. You can take elements from both the 616 and Ultimate versions of Kraven and use them for the MCU version. A famous hunter after Spider-Man's bounty, recording his every move for the world to see as he takes down his biggest prey. We could even see Kraven attack, threaten, or capture somebody important to Peter to draw him out, like Aunt May, or Ned, or MJ. Maybe take some elements from Kraven's Last Hunt, including the image of him burying Peter alive. That would be intense.

7, Set up the Sinister Six

I don't think that the Sinister Six should be the main villains of the movie, but I do want to see the movie set up the team for future Spider-Man movies. We already have a list of worthy candidates (Vulture, Shocker, Scorpion, Mysterio, Chameleon). We could get some settle hints of other villains looking to come after Spider-Man, like Doc Ock or Sandman or Electro or Jackal or Rhino. Who knows how many villains Spider-Man defeated off-screen? The possibilities are endless. In fact, my next post will be about my personal wish list for the MCU's Sinister Six.

6. A more personal story/Reduce the MCU's influence

Some fans have complained that the MCU has had too much of an influence over the Spider-Man films so far. With stuff like Iron Man, the Avengers, the Chitauri, the Battle of New York, Infinity War, Endgame, and the countless Easter eggs and references to major MCU events and items, some people feel like Homecoming and Far From Home aren't even MCU Spider-Man films, but MCU films with Spider-Man in it. Personally, I don't agree, but for Spider-Man 3, with the Iron Man relationship and the Infinity Saga over, it's time to take Peter back to his original roots. Which means that however Peter solves this problem, the MCU should take a bit of a back seat. Make this a more self-contained story like Black Panther or Doctor Strange, films that rely less on the influence of the MCU and can more or less stand out on their own. Peter needs to solve his problems without the help of Iron Man, the Avengers, or S.H.I.E.L.D. to back him up. Now, obviously, it should feel like it's still in the MCU and should have some MCU references, but the references should matter to the plot of the story. More or less, this story needs to be independent from the MCU and needs to focus on Peter relying on his own gear, as well as his own abilities. Oh, and while I love all 5 of his suits, let's not make the next one from Stark tech, less we hear that stupid "Iron Man Jr." nickname again.

5. J. Jonah Jameson needs to have a big role

J.K. Simmons reprising his role as J. Jonah Jameson in FFH brought Spider-Man fans (especially Raimi fans) to tears. Now that he and the Daily Bugle exist in the MCU, it's the perfect time to show how the former newspaper company will factor into the story of Spider-Man 3. Jameson has clearly started a smear campaign on Spider-Man as he believes that he is a menace and that Mysterio was the true hero in FFH. So, this could be a good opportunity to have him serve as a potential threat or foil to Peter Parker and Spider-Man. In the comics, it was actually jolly Jameson himself who funded Mac Gargan's transformation into the Scorpion and serve as the "Anti Spider-Man". And Mac Gargan still has a bone to pick with Spider-Man after the events of Homecoming. So, he could pay for Gargan's operation to become Scorpion and hire him to work with Kraven in order to capture Spider-Man. This would also allow for Marvel and Sony to further set up his recruitment into the Sinister Six if it happens.

4. Expand the backstory of the side characters

The characters in the Spider-Man films have been great. Ned, Aunt May, MJ, Betty, Flash. They bring a lot of fun and energy into this franchise. But, unfortunately, they aren't given a whole lot to do in the films. For Spider-Man 3, we need to explore the characters more. We need to see how Aunt May is dealing with Peter being hunted down. We need to explore more of her past and see the moment after she found out Peter's identity and how see dealt with it. We need to see the type of fear and horror she could be expressing knowing that Peter is in danger. And how she even dealt with Peter being Spider-Man in the first place. For Flash, we need to explore his personal life. It's been established in FFH that he currently has issues with his parents, as they didn't speak to him the majority of the trip in FFH, and didn't even pick him up at the airport. We need to see what causes Flash to act like a dick to Peter Parker all the time. For Ned, we need to see how he's dealing with Peter being a fugitive. We need to see if he and Betty's relationship will take a step further than it did in FFH. Maybe they comfort each other out of fear for Peter's safety and their own, and they get closer and closer and become a more serious couple. And as for MJ, we need to explore her personal life. The writers hinted that she has some issues with her parents, similar to how in the comics, MJ had a bad relationship with her father. Now MCU MJ is different from comic book MJ, but it's clear that she's meant to be the MCU version of the character, so let's take some Mary Jane elements from the comics and use them for Michelle Jones. Let's see how she's dealing with Peter being on the run. Does it cause them to break up due to Peter fearing for her safety? Also, dye her hair red. Please, Zendaya looks amazing with red hair.

3. Set up Oscorp and future Spider-Man characters/stories

Even though Spider-Man 3 will conclude the Homecoming trilogy, it won't conclude Spider-Man's story in the MCU. Disney and Sony can easily sign a new deal to extend Spidey's stay at Marvel, and he does have one more appearance after SM3. So, let's use this opportunity to set up future stories for the wall-crawler. For starters, Oscorp needs to serve as one of the next big bads of the MCU. Norman Osborn is basically the evil Tony Stark, all the power and intelligence but no heart. Oscorp could be a massive threat to both Spider-Man and other heroes like the Avengers. He could potentially fund the Sinister Six behind the scenes, as well as set up the evil counterpart for the Avengers: the Dark Avengers. The Iron Patriot armor is still around, so I could see Norman operating as the evil Iron Man when he's not running Oscorp or dressing up as a goblin and throwing pumpkin bombs. Also, it could finally confirm the theory that Avengers Tower will become Oscorp, something I will address in another post. You could potentially set up Norman as a post-credits scene, or in a small cameo role in Spider-Man 3, probably at the end of the movie to set up the Sinister Six again.

2. A major death needs to happen to permanently affect Peter Parker

Death has always been a staple in Peter Parker's life. It's sad but it's true (his parents, Uncle Ben, Gwen Stacy, Aunt May in Spider-Man PS4 and ITSV, and even Tony Stark in the MCU) Peter, unfortunately, loses people he cares about a lot, and it's always affected him in some way. Now, Homecoming and Far From Home haven't really dealt with the consequences of death before due to Spider-Man not really facing situations where somebody died because of him or he was unable to save someone in time. In Spider-Man 3, let's change that factor. Let's put Peter in a position where somebody has died because of something that Peter Parker directly or indirectly caused. Like somebody getting in the crossfire of a fight, or Peter fails to save someone in time, or Kraven or Scorpion kill somebody just to draw Spider-Man out. Now, obviously, it could just be a random person that became an unlucky victim, but I think we need to go bigger than that. This death needs to be personal; somebody close to Peter Parker has to die in order to raise the stakes and scar him for life. And after looking through the list of characters of who it could be, there's only one clear conclusion: Ned has to die. I know, it's terrible for me to even say that, and I love Ned, he's a awesome guy. But, MJ, Aunt May, and Betty, I see them having potential futures in the MCU. Peter can't use Aunt May at such a young age, especially since she's young herself. MJ has a lot of potential as a character in the MCU, if we explore her past more. And Betty needs to work for the Bugle. As for Ned, he's not turning into Hobgoblin, Oscorp could be joining the MCU, which means that Harry Osborn could show up, and a love triangle bromance between Peter, Harry, and Ned would be kinda weird. Really, I don't see Ned being a lasting character in the MCU. So, him dying makes sense, especially since it'll scar Peter on a personal and emotional level, seeing his best friend be killed because of him. This could cause Peter to become more hesitant to trust or befriend anyone in fear of them getting hurt or killed because of him. And if Harry does join, and he and Peter become friends. we could see Peter be less likely to tell Harry that he's Spider-Man in fear of him sharing the same fate as Ned if he got mixed up in Spider-Man's life. So, yeah, while it pains me to say this, I think that Ned should die in Spider-Man 3 in order to raise the stakes for Peter and cause him to be more hesitant on bringing people along in his life as Spider-Man.

1. Uncle Ben

This is the big one here, people. This is probably the biggest issue/complaint that we've gotten from fans about the MCU Spider-Man. Ever since Civil War, the biggest question on everyone's mind was "What happened to Uncle Ben?" Why doesn't Marvel mention Ben take much other than 3 indirect references to the character? Why haven't we gotten a direct reference, like a namedrop? Or "With great power comes great responsibility"? Why did Marvel not put Uncle Ben in Homecoming or FFH? Well, the answer to that is simple. Because we already had two live action film franchises by Sony which have shown the origin story twice, and have Uncle Ben be prominent figures to Peter Parker, fans decided that, for the MCU, it's best to skip the origin story and just go straight to Spider-Man. And Jon Watts and Kevin Feige has stated that, if Uncle Ben is to be a part of the story to the MCU Spider-Man films, he can't just be a simple reference or a quick namedrop. He has to have a important and prominent role to the story and to Peter Parker. And at the time, Uncle Ben wasn't important to the story yet, but he wasn't forgotten. Though this made the false accusation that Tony Stark (since he was Peter's mentor in Civil War, Homecoming, Infinity War, and Endgame) was replacing Uncle Ben, or became Uncle Ben 2.0. But that was never the case. The focus was on Spider-Man and his involvement in Phase 3, Infinity War, and the Infinity Saga. But, the Saga has ended now, which gives Marvel the opportunity to factor Uncle Ben into the plot of the story and have him play an important role in Peter's life again. Uncle Ben needs to physically appear in some way in the story (a flashback, a family photo, a voice-over, Peter's thoughts and memories, even Peter's dream). We need to see Uncle Ben play a role in Peter's life again and see him guide Peter in his path as a superhero. Hell, we should see the scene where Ben gets shot. And most importantly, Uncle Ben should be played by the original Spider-Man himself, Tobey Maguire. Tobey being Uncle Ben could serve as a metaphorical passing-the-torch to Tom Holland/Peter Parker, as it symbolically has the old Spider-Man pass the mantle to the new Spider-Man. This gives Raimi fans a chance to see Tobey in a Spider-Man movie again, and it will finally give Uncle Ben a prominent role again in a Spider-Man movie.

And that, my friends, is my top 10 list of things that I want to see happen in Spider-Man 3. My next two post will be on my version of the MCU Sinister Six and a poll asking you guys who you think bought Avengers Tower. Comment down below and let me know your thoughts. Let me know if you agree with any of the items I have on this list, and be sure to tell me exactly what you would like to see happen in the 3rd Spider-Man movie.
