It wasn't even 5%. It was 5% of opening weekend (maybe day? I can't remember) sales. And Marvel brought 50% (not just 50%, mind you, 50% co-financing) to the table, but when you're negotiating for more, you always hit the highest you'll go right out the gate hoping they take it, but never expect it (same with negotiating for lower - always start the lowest you'll be willing to go). Unfortunately, according to Disney/Marvel, at least, Sony wasn't even willing to talk and just was like "It's 5% or you're out." And Marvel thought "well shit, if they're not even gonna play ball, we'll go home."

throwing shade at kevin feige like punks.


yea the same guy who was consulting for them on those shitty andrew garfield movies and venom while overseeing the entire mcu is too busy for more spiderman movies. sounds legit.

i agree.
While Spider-Man has one of the coolest rogues gallery in comics, there is a payoff seeing him interact with non-Spidey characters and vice versa, Marvel characters interacting with him.
He adds to the completion of classic characters together on the big screen.

Plus i dig the banter among the various Marvel characters in a movie.

Speaking of Marvel characters...another of my Marvelous Joes:

Love the aesthetics! Another astonishing job! Is there a backstory to the MU of the Marvelous Joes?

I frigging love the classics! What was the recipe for him?

Hard to be a web-swinger in the wide open layout of the West Coast (the few stand-in New York shots don't convince). But man, those funky opening themes really do it for me...

Awesome bro and it is nice as is.

Thanks. I bought a couple of Human Fly comics from a 10 cent box at a comic store when I was a kid and fell in love with the character. Something about a stuntman/superhero clicked with my preteen brain.

He's a fairly straightforward build. The two batons were from the MU yellow costume Daredevil and the rest is Marauder Task Force.

The body is the red & white Rescue-Ops. The head is a red balaclava (with painted white stripes). The shoulder harness a Steady Cam Harness Rig. The rest is a belt and various armor, c-clips, pockets and pouches. I also added 2 helmet plugs to the holes on the sides of the belt (I find the plugs are a good way to fill extra webgear holes). For now, you can't buy the white pocket/pouches with a red fastener outside of the fully geared up Rescue-Ops figure. I was told it'll be a few months until they are offered separately.

Thank you.





No major backstory to my Marvelous Joes.
It's basically the MU adapted into a SHIELD vs HYDRA war as opposed to GI JOE vs COBRA with various third parties & vigilante mercenaries inbetween.

i'm a fan of Marvel Comics, GI JOE figures, and the 3.75 inch scale. So i'm customizing Marvel Universe characters into GI JOE figures and nicknamed them Marvelous Joes for short. i was surprised how many of the JOEs can be adapted easily. i have a fun time doing it.

i'm just now getting around to actually taking pictures of them, thanks to all the creativity this forum inspires.

Falcon to follow.

Fixed that for ya bro ;)

Sender that is a great idea and great execution. Can you take a quick group pic of all the ones you have done?
