Sony is the real villain in the MCU

Edboy7962026-01-17 02:21

Arguably the biggest one that's yet to be defeated

Amm-O-Matic2026-01-17 02:58

Yup. Don’t think Marvel will ever be able to pry Spider-Man’s movie rights out of Sony’s hands. Thankful for the Raimi films and the partnership to allow Spidey into the MCU but wish the rights could just be handed over at this point. The villain solo movies are absolute garbage.

Edboy7962026-01-17 03:20

Absolutely, to the point they had a whole line of of Spider-Man adjacent movies with absolutely no Spider-Man and canceled it all except (hopefully) Spider Noir apparently to be released on Amazon(?)

And then idk if I could ever recognize Sony as an entity having anything to with the greatness that is the animated Spiderverse films aside from having their tainted name stamped all over it

ANGLVD3TH2026-01-17 05:27

If it makes a difference, the Sony Animation branch of the company is incredibly independent from the rest of Sony Pictures and has always had a pretty good record. Two entirely different studios with their own creatives, etc.

Edboy7962026-01-17 05:30

This is precisely what I suspected

DrD__2026-01-17 09:09

Sony's live action tv stuff has also been pretty good, its so funny that they keep falling on their face in live action movies, but are succeseeding in almost every other medium (animated movies, tv, video games)

ProfessorElk2026-01-17 02:23

Perhaps the real villains were the movies Sony made along the way

Creepy_Cupcake37052026-01-17 02:23

It’s funny because they fought so hard to retain the rights, and then just put out absolute slop after slop movies. Generational run between madame web, morbius, and venom the last dance.

Paladar22026-01-17 02:25

You forgot Kraven lol. I don’t blame you

Creepy_Cupcake37052026-01-17 02:26

😂

vally992026-01-17 02:28

I think Kraven was the best from all of them

Paladar22026-01-17 02:33

Honestly I agree I think. I enjoyed it okay. Rest of them though… Venom 1 was fine but that’s it

BarackaFlockaFlame2026-01-17 03:01

i had fun for most of the venom movies honestly, but that's because i'm a big fan of venom aaaaand tom hardy lol.

they were not great movies by any stretch, the last one especially being a stinker. You don't try and rush King in Black.

Carrnage_Asada2026-01-17 04:28

I think I enjoyed the one with carnage? Im not totally sure though because I only saw it once and its possible I was just being biased because I love carnage. Its not mentioned often so im assuming its at least not awful.

CaptHayfever2026-01-17 04:46

The first 2 Venom movies were carried by Hardy's performance (though Harrelson understood the assignment as Carnage), but he was clearly getting tired of it in the 3rd. (The only thing comparable in the entire rest of the Venomverse was Matt Smith in Morbius, but as not-the-protagonist, he naturally has way less screentime.)

And every shot of Knull looked like a Devil May Cry cutscene.

Meizas2026-01-17 06:48

Still hoping we get a Venom/Avengers crossover for a proper King in Black movie

spidervenom6192026-01-17 05:16

I actually kinda like Venom 2 but that's probably my Carnage fanboy bias speaking lol.

Venom 3 should be hated more then any Marvel studios show or movie release, that film is a crime against humanity which how bad it's butchered Knull.

DSmooth4252026-01-17 02:45

Same. It wasn’t good to great but it wasn’t bad in the way Morbius or the last Venom movie was. I skipped Madame Web.

BarackaFlockaFlame2026-01-17 03:04

Madame Web isn't even bad in any good way at all. It was impossible to watch. I skipped through different parts and it is quite literally on the same level as Secret Invasion. I only finished that in the hopes that there would be something eventually worth my time. X WRONG.

33810242026-01-17 03:17

I was pleasantly surprised by Kraven. Its a solidly mediocre film, that you can mindlessly enjoy

CaptHayfever2026-01-17 04:47

It's inoffensive, I'll give it that. It didn't inspire revulsion in me like Morbius or Madame Web did.

ChildofObama2026-01-17 08:02

Kraven was the SUMC’s most competent movie, in terms of writing, character development, even visuals.

The Venom trilogy is just dumb fun, the second one is my favorite, cuz it acknowledged how ludicrous the premise is and they just made a silly romantic comedy.

spidervenom6192026-01-17 05:15

You know the sad thing is that after the massive failure that was the Venom the Last Dance, no one in my family has even seen Kraven yet.

We didn't even bootleg it, we all just skipped it lmao. I would rather watch Batman and Robin over Kraven.

dksweets2026-01-17 07:43

If you were born in roughly 1990 you know Batman and Robin is a classic. Can’t accept this slander.

Edboy7962026-01-17 02:27

Sony on self destruct speed run

Tristonia72026-01-17 02:28

The thing is they only put out that slop so that they can keep the rights to Spider-Man. Pretty sure they have to make a movie within a certain time of eachother or else the film rights go back to Disney. They don’t care to waste money on garbage like morbius because they’re printing cash with spiderman

Worst part is we can’t have cool spiderman cameos in stuff like daredevil because Sony would want 99% of profit for including him for 5 minutes

FX1142026-01-17 02:51

They do have to actively use the rights, but these movies are coming out way too close to each other for that to be their purpose.

eagc72026-01-17 03:30

I mean the contract from 2011 that got leaked when the Sony hack happened did said that if Sony is able to deliver X amount of movies within 8 consecutive years, then they have the option to extend the time limit.

Of course its possible that part of the contract may no longer be available given its been a decade, but if its still in place or at least a revised version is still on place, it may not surprise me why Sony may wanna bump out as much Spider-Man movies as possible.

CaptHayfever2026-01-17 04:48

Exactly. And also, the Holland MCU films count as using the rights anyway.

CitronSufficient10452026-01-17 03:31

If I were in charge of Marvel, I’d remove Spider-Man after the Secret Wars reboot, not renew the deal with Sony, and let Sony damage the brand enough that they’re forced to sell the rights back.

Special_Kestrels2026-01-17 02:29

What I really don't get is the fact that they hire garbage writers and directors for those live action stuff.

Madame web as a cool time loop movie could have been interesting instead of what we got.

_OUCHMYPENIS_2026-01-17 02:56

That movie just kind of happened with no real consequences at all. It existed, if it wasn't for the fact that it was a "Marvel" movie, no one would remember it.

daniel-sousa-me2026-01-17 04:37

I think you're describing 90% of the movies based on acquired IP

alex4942026-01-17 11:02

I think it has to be some kind of tax scam lol

_steve_rogers_2026-01-17 02:58

The last dance on Stan lees grave

BarackaFlockaFlame2026-01-17 03:00

i had fun with the venom movies, but i knew last dance was going to be a huge blunder because I read the comics it was supposed to be based off of and there was absolutely NO WAY they were going to do it justice, especially since it was supposed to be the final movie... yet it ends with that massive cliffhanger... wish they did something original. It did still have fun moments, but that's probably only because I am a big fan of the character.

eagc72026-01-17 03:33

Well in regards to the cliffhanger, that was more intended for future SSU movies than the Venom franchise, as appearently they wanted Knull to be the big bad of the SSU whom all of these characters were gonna have to face against.

NononDracula2026-01-17 04:00

The Venom movies were so so fun, but yeah it stinks that the final was on a cliffhanger, apparently this was due to them planning to do movies with Agony, for some reason. probably why she got the Fortnite skin as well.

ballinb0ss2026-01-17 05:53

Yeah but how are the spider verse movies so good from the same studio I don't get it.

sdpr2026-01-17 06:21

Into/Across the Spiderverse are fucking fantastic films. Some of my favorite in general.

Sucks they can't translate that formula to live action films, but whatever.

Mega_Dragonzord2026-01-17 06:31

I sadly actually like Morbius, it’s not great by any means. But man watching Matt Smith have an absolute blast in it is great. He knew the exact movie that he was making, and decided the scenery was delicious.

MyTimeToScamNFT2026-01-17 02:38

Sony got the rights to Spider-Man fair and square. If Marvel wants to keep the Spider-Man rights they shouldn't haven't sold them

RoninRonanAgamotto2026-01-17 02:42

Right! Thank You! People pretend Sony should give rights back for charity. They got it fairly, it's Marvel who sold them. It's not like Sony ripped off Marvel to advantage of their bankruptcy days. It was a fair deal.

There won't be a MCU today if Sony didn't take the risk with Spider-Man back in 2002.

People clamour for and shift goalposts saying Sony should give rights back to Marvel. Instead if they really want Spider-Man back, fans should be asking Disney to buy out Spider-Man back. And the argument, well you know Sony would never be interested in selling Spider-Man rights. Well I would like to tell you, There is a price for everything, question is that whether Disney is willing to pay it or not.

NononDracula2026-01-17 04:05

Yeah, and honestly all the demands for them to hand it over to disney just because Morbius exists is bizarre, as if Disney hasn't had massive blunders with Antman 3, Thor 2 and Thor 4. I don't think we'd have anything like Spiderverse if Disney had full control and that movie was huge on the animation industry.

Luci-Noir2026-01-17 04:10

Most of the stuff is good or decent as well. It’s like everything in the MCU is some masterpiece.

Fancy-Trousers2026-01-17 04:48

It always feels weird to see people cheer for corporate consolidation just because it's related to a fictional character they like. Don't get me wrong, I'm a Spider-Man fan, too, but Disney's decades-long attempts to get a monopoly on people's childhoods is pretty gross. If everyone wants Sony to stop making garbage spinoff movies they should stop watching them. Of all the ones they've made, so far Kraven is the only one to lose money at the box office. Even Madame Web broke even at minimum.

DrD__2026-01-17 09:15

>There won't be a MCU today if Sony didn't take the risk with Spider-Man back in 2002.

In more ways than one, obviously marvel selling spiderman (and xmen to fox) paved the way for more superhero films

But the mcu was also born of what marvel had left, outside of hulk the other early mcu characters were not that popular pre mcu not nessisarily obscure, but the xmen and spiderman are on a whole other level compared to the avengers before the mcu. They wouldn't have chosen iron man to lead their films.

Tristonia72026-01-17 02:45

[deleted]

FX1142026-01-17 02:53

Funny, the best Spider-Man movies have no crossover with other properties.

Unitedfateful2026-01-17 02:50

Nah see Sony are a villain and not that nice sweet mum and dad company called Disney.

labbla2026-01-17 03:43

Yup, they have no reason to give up the rights. And they still make lots of cool stuff. We wouldn't have anything as awesome as the Spider-Verse movies if the rights were with Marvel.

FrostyD72026-01-17 04:39

It's hilarious that Sony gets the heat from fans when they are just being squeezed by Disney. And Disney knows how to fan those flames and use it against them.

palk0n2026-01-17 08:00

"awww the fans wants spiderman to be back to disney, we should do that to make them happy!"

is that want the fans are expecting? lmao

Pizzanigs2026-01-17 02:42

Right. How dare the holders of the rights make a streaming deal that suits them?!

Unitedfateful2026-01-17 02:51

Yeah I know right.

We need to protect that small, indie studio Disney
Boo Sony how awful they bought the rights fairly and use them fairly to make their own content.

Why won’t anyone think of Disney!

Tristonia72026-01-17 03:14

No one cares about Disney making money. You somehow missed the point.

We want all these hero’s to be able to be freely used whenever the writers want, as they were in the comics

Unitedfateful2026-01-17 03:17

Which means Disney being a monopoly and owning everything

See Netflix acquiring warners which is horrifying for the movie industry

Ffs this sub 🤦‍♂️

Tristonia72026-01-17 03:30

You’re slow if you think owning spiderman, a marvel character, would make Disney, who owns marvel, a monopoly.

Scmods052026-01-17 03:14

Nah. Fuck Disney. Fuck them controlling everything and churning out rubbish. We need diverse studios and avenues of storytelling.

Razatiger2026-01-17 04:42

Im sure Sony offered this deal to Disney. But nobodies got Netflix money atm.

NoobFreakT2026-01-17 06:10

Nope

Tanthiel2026-01-17 06:53

There would be no Marvel to make Iron Man without the money from the rights sale, which kept perpetually bankrupt Marvel in business for *just a little longer* back in the early 00s. MCU fans who don't respect that everything they have now was made possible by Sony, Fox and New Line are trash.

mmazurr2026-01-17 08:35

Hot take but I don't think it's so bad. They've mostly played nice and they are actually able to turn around production for the Tom Holland films pretty quickly, which can't be said for Marvel anymore. We got 3 Spider-Man movies within a ~4 year period. Pretty big difference compared to Dr.Strange, Shang-Chi, Blade, Captain Marvel where these movies take forever to get greenlit. It's not all great, true, but Sony seems to actually know how to produce movies in a timely manner.

HopperPI2026-01-17 02:06

No. This is for Sony films, not Marvel films. Look at what the article actually says.

Sylar_Lives2026-01-17 02:07

The Spider-Man movies with Holland ARE Sony films

ArchimedesNutss2026-01-17 02:08

Not entirely

PokemoWho2026-01-17 02:10

But they are distributed by Sony.

Informal-Ad22772026-01-17 02:11

Regardless of them being a co-production, Sony still owns the rights to the character, thus, making it so that Sony and Netflix *can* ink this deal.

HopperPI2026-01-17 02:16

Title: new deal separating spider-man films from Disney.

Article mentions nothing about this. Specifically states two spider-man animated films. Also states:

“As part of this deal, Netflix will also license rights to select SPE feature film and television library titles.”

Tristonia72026-01-17 02:14

You realize no way home is STILL not on Disney plus? Sony absolutely has total control over where the movies are watchable on

FX1142026-01-17 02:53

They are entirely financed and owned by Sony.

HopperPI2026-01-17 02:12

Except they aren’t. Literally, go read the article. They mention nothing about MCU movies and specifically mention into the spider-verse and the sequel which are wholly produced by Sony.

Sylar_Lives2026-01-17 02:18

Why is No Way Home not on Disney +? I’m telling you this is the way it is.

HopperPI2026-01-17 02:33

You can LITERALLY google that question and get the answer.

WebHead12872026-01-17 02:46

Hmm according to Google Spider-Man Homecoming is a Columbia pictures movie

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2250912/companycredits/

Last I checked that’s Sony.

HopperPI2026-01-17 02:58

Are you really this dense? I didn’t say IMDb. Or even Homecoming. Use Google:

Spider-Man: No Way Home isn't on Disney+ because Sony Pictures holds the distribution rights, not Disney, and their licensing deal for the film was separate from the main MCU streaming agreement, keeping it tied to other services like Starz or Netflix for a period. While Disney has a newer deal for Sony films released from 2022 onwards, No Way Home (released December 2021) falls under older licensing, meaning its streaming rights rotate between different platforms rather than being exclusive to Disney+.

DvnEm2026-01-17 02:16

The Spiderman films being discussed IN THE ARTICLE are the Spider-verse films.

Sylar_Lives2026-01-17 02:30

Yea, but the Holland movies are also Sony and considering No Way Home is not on Disney + it stands to reason they will be included in this.

DvnEm2026-01-17 02:35

Reading the article, it doesn’t push for that logic whatsoever. They would’ve openly advertised the film or series part of the deal.

Which part of the moon are you reaching to?

outside_josh92026-01-17 02:52

You aren’t crazy. That guy is just a troll. It mentions nothing of MCU films.

To the dick head above……. MCU Spider-Man movies aren’t Sony films. They are in partner with them but they aren’t Sony movies. Have some critical thinking skills.

Antrikshy2026-01-17 05:03

They are all Sony films, but you’re right that Sony Marvel films seem to get special treatment on Disney+.

Antrikshy2026-01-17 02:06

Don't they have a separate deal with Disney that puts Sony's Marvel movies on D+ after some period of time on Netflix (and maybe Starz)? Does this deal change anything about that? Do we even know?

This is all in the US of course, I dunno how it works in other countries.

eBICgamer20102026-01-17 02:08

Yeah but we don't know who will be bidding for pay-2 window.

ScaredFamousfan2026-01-17 02:15

I’m pretty sure Disney is ready to pay a hefty sum to
keep their exclusive pay window 2 access

OkOil3782026-01-17 02:28

Or maybe it’ll come as a package deal along with producing SM films

AGQA_222026-01-17 05:16

Hopefully they need more Sony library in Disney platforms, we'll see

John7117112026-01-17 02:10

This time it is internationally as well

Gnulnori2026-01-17 04:34

I think Roadrunner gets it after year 6.

Kevsterific2026-01-17 05:08

In Canada homecoming is on d+ but not far from home or no way home

SonicFlash012026-01-17 15:35

Raimi Trilogy, too

raze4642026-01-17 07:30

That deal is for **all** of Sony's movies once they leave Netflix, not just the Spider-Man films, and right now it's set to expire at the end of 2026.

Antrikshy2026-01-17 07:37

Long ago, I thought I read this. But I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen it happen in reality.

drdax21872026-01-17 07:53

For many years all Sony movies would go to starz to stream, and then elsewhere afterwards. Starting in 2022, they would go to Netflix for 2 years, then Hulu, then elsewhere. Source: https://www.sonypictures.com/corp/press_releases/2021/0408

This re-ups this existing agreement and makes it worldwide. The reason you see Spider-Man movies on Disney plus is because their rights expired to stay on Netflix, starz, etc

Antrikshy2026-01-17 08:23

Disney+ definitely seems picky and choosy, because I don't remember seeing equally old Sony movies on there.

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) and Ghostbusters (2016) come to mind. Neither is on Disney+ in the US.

That's why I thought they had a separate deal and the public misunderstood.

ryanixer2026-01-17 12:08

in the uk, they aren't on disney+ currently, but they apparently were a few years ago.

crough942026-01-18 10:00

I’ve just been looking and all the new Spider-Man films and across the spiderverse ones are on bbc iPlayer. But they all expire at various points this week. My guess is they were on tv over Christmas so they got a month on iPlayer.

tekkenjin2026-01-17 14:11

right now in the UK none of the spiderman movies are on disney plus. In fact I streamed the 2002 movie off a dodgy website and airplayed from phone a few days ago because I was too lazy to look for my old bluray/dvds.

AAC08132026-01-17 02:12

God I hate corporate glazing. ‘We are so happy to have another reason to force people to pay us 🤑’ Just say it, man. Don’t pretend you fucking loooooove Sony movies, Netflix-guy. You want more users and higher profits

ckal092026-01-17 02:29

Part of capitalism is gaslighting the public that corporations actually give a shit about them in any way other than extracting the most money possible from them

Unitedfateful2026-01-17 03:07

This comment is hilarious considering the amount of Disney glazing going on here

“why can’t they be a monopoly so I can get what I want, fuck the other studios”

We are essentially down to a handful of studios now.

All the legacy studios are gone or folded into their parent companies

MGM
Warners
Fox
Etc

McNugget632026-01-17 02:14

Is the spiderman IP the only think keeping Sonys doors open at this point or what

eBICgamer20102026-01-17 02:16

Nah they have anime and PlayStations productions now. Demon Slayer even beat Superman and Fantastic Four worldwide.

chainsawwmann2026-01-17 02:17

Kpop demon hunters is sony and that shit is huge

Kumbackkid2026-01-17 02:50

To bad they sold all the rights to Netflix

DrCircledot2026-01-17 03:36

they will keep making more of these animated films that become global phenomenon

SuperIga2026-01-17 02:22

Did you forget PlayStation exists or something?

Unitedfateful2026-01-17 02:53

This sub is braindead.
It’s basically “wahhh I want Disney to be a monopoly and own everything, Sony evil”

“Pfft Sony don’t do anything, now let me go turn on my PlayStation…”

cenasmgame2026-01-17 02:58

To be fair, Sony Entertainment and PlayStation were two distinct arms of the company for so long, it was only when Sony Entertainment was losing money they rolled PlayStation into it to keep it from being in the red.

Point still stands, Sony aint hurting for money

FX1142026-01-17 02:55

Sony's revenue in 2024 was over $90 billion.

daniel-sousa-me2026-01-17 04:41

That's a lot of Spider-Men

Worthyness2026-01-17 02:58

They have one of the biggest streaming services for anime distribution in the US and their TV division is pretty dang good at cranking out tv series. They just don't own their own streaming service (outside Crunchyroll), so all their stuff is sold to other streamers for distribution

Alternative_Pay1392026-01-17 03:14

TIL Crunchyroll comes under Sony. They ain't never going broke because of Anime, Spidey and PlayStation.

schwiftydude472026-01-17 04:06

They own the dubs and distribution for all the big anime, have PlayStation games that can be adapted, and just spent like $7 million on Snoopy and the Peanuts IP. That’s on top of whatever revenue they’re making off of Kpop Demon Hunters right now. Sony’s booked and busy.

Alone-Farmer-54102026-01-17 07:23

On the contrary, Sony Music, Sony Interactive Entertainment (PlayStation), Sony Semiconductor (camera sensors), and the electronics division remain profitable. Sony Pictures is profitable due to its smaller scale and stability, producing various television series, and Crunchyroll has grown considerably. The company is doing very well, with increasing profits, low debt, and rising free cash flow.

Relevant_Active_23472026-01-17 02:15

They have their hot garbage SPUMC movies on Disney Plus but still wouldn't allow Holland Spider-Man in there...

What kind of bs is this!?

GetReady4Action2026-01-17 02:26

Homecoming and Far From Home are there, just no No Way Home.

HighSeverityImpact2026-01-17 18:00

No Way Home came out 4 years ago, and I haven't seen it since the theater. I'd bet there are a lot of other people like me who haven't seen it since then, not to mention people who didn't catch it in the theater at all.

If it were finally allowed to be on Netflix, it would have hit #1 instantly. Not sure what it would take financially, but it does seem like Sony is paywalling this film with no benefit to themselves.

BlargerJarger2026-01-17 02:16

I’m happy for Disney to not have rights to some of these movies because they refuse to release anything on disc in my country. Means I can buy Spiderverse 3 and Tom Holland 4 on disc.

Labyrinthy2026-01-17 02:38

Spider Verse is necessary on disc. Even with high quality streaming it looks like shit compared to the 4K disc.

TehnoMuda2026-01-17 04:04

There is another way of watching those movies if you get what I mean

BlargerJarger2026-01-17 04:18

My shelf demands no less than physical media.

CaptHayfever2026-01-17 04:53

Disney doesn't have general distribution rights to *any* of the solo Spidey films; they only have streaming. Sony can put out a disc of those movies whenever they want wherever they want.

ScaredFamousfan2026-01-17 02:16

They have yet to put No Way Home on any streaming platform besides Starz I doubt they’ll be putting the spiderman films on Netflix during the first pay window

murdo1tj2026-01-17 03:11

I wanted to watch No Way Home the other week and lucked out finding it at my local library on Blu Ray. Shout out to all the libraries out there!

robbie-dobbles2026-01-17 05:10

I've built much of my plex library with rentals from the library. Great resource.

Jealous-Flamingo43872026-01-17 06:20

This sounds interesting. Any idea how someone could go about doing this? Or point me in the right direction of where this information could be found?

robbie-dobbles2026-01-17 06:27

Pretty easy process. Get the disc, use a tool called makemkv to grab the files off the disc and then use a tool called handbrake to convert the files into smaller ones of a more manageable format.

With makemkv it tells you what files are in there and you can decide if you want extra content or just the main file. You can remove extra languages and captions to reduce the size a bit.

With handbrake there are tons of preset outputs so you don't have to be an expert in the specifics of audio or video.

In terms of Plex, you make sure you name the files so it can recognize them, put them on whatever machine you want to use as storage and then add the app to your devices. They've apparently gotten more stingy with features being licked behind premium. I bought the lifetime pass years ago so I'm not up to date. It's actually becoming a worse tool imo so I'm debating trying an alternative

Goaliedude39192026-01-17 14:38

Why not just use handbrake to extract the files off the disc as well?

robbie-dobbles2026-01-17 14:40

I wasn't aware it could? Back when I started that was just the process people used.

ghalta2026-01-17 16:40

It takes much longer to encode the file then it does to extract the file. If you use handbrake to do both, then your drive sits spinning for much much longer, wearing it out that much faster.

Also, make MKV is just better at extracting. For my drive, for example, make MKV wrote custom firmware that replaces the drives native firmware, allowing it to simply choose not to utilize any file protection, so it can extract from more discs.

Acting like Sony Pictures Core is irrelevant smh /s

daniel-sousa-me2026-01-17 04:38

Are you kidding? Everything should be there! The quality of the stream rivals Blu-ray!

kidnamedzieeeegler2026-01-17 09:24

Isn't that exclusively for Sony devices only?

daniel-sousa-me2026-01-17 10:55

I think the high bit rate streams are only for Sony devices, but you can find online friends who can share the files with you (look for WEB-DL tagged as CORE)

kidnamedzieeeegler2026-01-21 06:34

BCORE too. Because Sony Pictures Core used to be Bravia Core, so some torrents still have the BCORE tag.

fastheadcrab2026-01-17 05:06

The image quality of that service is exceptional when viewed on Sony TVs

Luci-Noir2026-01-17 04:10

It’s free on Pluto TV.

FictionFantom2026-01-17 05:08

That sounds like a regional thing because NWH is 100% on Netflix in Canada

Doytoend2026-01-17 05:11

Same in Germany and it's now on D+ along with the other Spidey stuff.

jjkm72026-01-17 05:25

NWH has been on netflix Canada for a while

Terrible-Second-27162026-01-18 01:51

No way home is on Netflix in Canada

Illustrious_One_41092026-01-18 05:54

I’m using a Vpn for netflix canada but it’s not showing up is it a specific region in canada or does netflix not like Vpns anymore? I use express vpn

Terrible-Second-27162026-01-18 05:58

I think they just removed it recently actually

Professional_Ad_54372026-01-17 02:17

I wish Apple had done this deal. They would have played ball with Marvel/Disney in a much better way.

Ericandabear2026-01-17 17:15

Thats a crazy take

Step1Mark2026-01-17 17:19

I don't know if I can agree with that.

Apple is notoriously walled-gardened for a lot of services.

Professional_Ad_54372026-01-17 02:20

Is it also worth noting that Sony has some existing deals with HBO - would the new deal secure the future of PlayStation Production titles? Like Last of Us. Etc.

FiveDollarRimjobs2026-01-17 02:22

Well that kind of sucks

Rick_Sanchez12142026-01-17 02:23

Okay? So? Spider-Man films will be on Netflix. Great, big deal.

IndominusTaco2026-01-17 02:27

the MCU spider-man movies should be with the rest of the MCU collection

Rick_Sanchez12142026-01-17 02:49

As if 65% of US households don’t already have Netflix. Argue semantics and complain if you want, most people outside of the Reddit echo chamber won’t give a shit.

el_palmera2026-01-17 03:15

Bro doesn't know how to use the word "semantics"

Rick_Sanchez12142026-01-17 03:21

I’m a semantisizer, not a poor without Netflix

outside_josh92026-01-17 02:53

They will be. Read the article.

eagc72026-01-17 03:18

The deal doesn't prevent the Spider-Man films from going into Disney+.

Sony and Netflix didn't sign a deal where Netflix is the only place Sony films will ever be released period and won't be available elsewhere

The way the deal works is that Netflix gets first dibs on upcoming Sony films once they had ended their theatrical run, so say BND will hit Netflix first, then after roughly 1-2 years had passed, then Disney can get their hands on BND.

RussellNorrisPiastri2026-01-17 02:23

lol never change marvel

spderweb2026-01-17 02:26

All the spiderman movies are on Disney Plus though. So I assume it's time gated, as always.

Own-Papaya-42642026-01-17 02:29

So was all that trouble of getting homecoming and FFH on Disney plus just a waste of time now?

eagc72026-01-17 03:06

Should be noted that the deal doesn't prevent the Spider-Man movies from getting into Disney+. and in general this deal affects more newer releases, like expect Brand New Day to be on Netflix for a year or 2 before it can go to Disney+

This is just an extension of the already existing deal Sony and Netflix has, only that its now gonna be worldwide

JyconX2026-01-17 02:32

Dang it. :/

allthenamesaretaken42026-01-17 02:41

The Spider-Man Disney/Sony situation is the IP version of a bad divorce. Both parents fighting tooth and nail to pretend they're getting along for the sake of the kid(s), but it's so transparently toxic that it just hurts everyone. And at the end, most if not all of it is just about money.

NOUGHRICE2026-01-17 02:42

That's why there is ZERO chance they use the next Spider-Man movie to introduce mutants.

jaccw162026-01-17 02:42

This is so fucking stupid and annoying

StormCloudRaineeDay2026-01-17 02:44

This is the definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

LostGuy2422026-01-17 02:48

Man sonic is so fucking idiot i truly wish Marvel have the Spider man rights

Sorry-Secret-23472026-01-17 02:55

I just dont get the whole deal with keeping Spiderman ostracized from the rest of marvel… i know it’s about the money but it is annoying

Impressive-Bug-49552026-01-17 02:57

Where is the mention of 7 billion?

kneuster2026-01-17 03:05

No way Home was recently added to D+ in Germany. The other 2 Tom and the 2 Andrew Movies and Into the Spider-Verse (which is ironically called ‚a New Universe‘ in Germany) Are there. Tobey is missing.
Don‘t know if that adds anything to this topic. I just thought it‘s weird that the German D+ has more Spider-Man Movies.

eagc72026-01-17 03:13

Not really, as this deal more or less impacts newer releases. so expect this to impact more Brand New Day, Beyond the Spider-Verse and any newer Spidey films in the future

Disney and Sony has a Pay 2 contract, meaning Disney will be the secondary home after Netflix had streamed that movie for 1-2 years

eagc72026-01-17 03:10

Now one thing that needs to be pointed out as i know there will be alot of confusion and the assumption that this means Netflix will be the only place period that you can see Spider-Man films and they will never be available somewhere else........ is that the deal doesn't prevent the Spider-Man movies from going into Disney+.

This is just an extension of the current Netflix-Sony deal in which Sony's early-mid 2020s releases went to Netflix first, now it goes longer than that as the deal was supposed to expire this year and its now gonna be worldwide. if the terms of the deal are the same as the original one, upcoming Spider-Man films are gonna be in Netflix for a year or 2, before Sony has the option to release them on Disney+ or another platform

Currently Disney and Sony has a Pay 2 contract, meaning they will be the second home once Netflix's rights to that specific movie expires.

Tim_Hag2026-01-17 03:23

The smartest thing Sony has done in recent years is not make their own streaming service

No-Juice33182026-01-17 03:37

Good. With D+ saying they'll make AI content, they don't deserve it

Dr-Dale-Donald2026-01-17 03:51

Spiderman just keeps getting screwed for decades, leave him alone!

FluffyMoomin2026-01-17 04:01

Does this affect Sony Pictures Core?

moonknightcrawler2026-01-17 04:01

They can’t separate them from my 4k shelf, so that’s ok with me

onetwoskeedoo2026-01-17 04:04

Just give it up already god damnnn

Superdarklinks2026-01-17 04:12

Being a spidey fan and not owning the movies digitally or physically at this point 🤨

Ik that financials obv aren’t the same for everyone, I’m just glad to have not been on this weird streaming train of not knowing where the movies would be since they’ve been all over the place in the past decade.

AMassiveGamerGeek2026-01-17 04:13

Jesus so Netflix has billions just lying around?

A_funny_user_name2026-01-17 04:23

I live in UAE and all the Spiderman movies appeared on Disney+ here a couple of weeks ago. All at the same time, up to and including No Way Home.

storksghast2026-01-17 05:13

Cool. So fucking what. Watch the movies wherever they're available.

Diskobots2026-01-17 05:13

I could have sworn that a clause that Marvel has with Sony is that if they sell Sony, the rights to Spider Man goes back to Marvel.

Wise-Locksmith-64382026-01-17 05:22

I hope Disney+ renews the deal with Sony so that we can have all the Spiderman movie titles completed

OutsideIndoorTrack2026-01-17 05:34

If you feel like you want to have all your movies in one place, just buy them yourself

TheMagicalMatt2026-01-17 06:33

This is why people will always default to piracy.

Personally, I'm fine with physical media, but obviously there is no positive future for streaming.

tehCharo2026-01-17 12:25

I cut off Netflix two years ago after they kept raising rates and limiting logins, fuck you if travel or have multiple devices you want to use, all for direct to video movies and b-tier classic TV shows slop. I'm not paying a monthly subscription for a single Spider-Man movie.

pickrunner182026-01-17 08:34

Just buy the fucking movies and fuck all this
