The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) Full Reaction

i see.. interesting insight.. i was thinking a lot about how they can be connected.. but probably i wasn't aware of the Disney that purchased Marvel.. now despite their differences, i like all 3 of them! you can see how different they are.. while they made you think about the same character.. and their stories.. and how eventually get connected with the MCU.. the most recent Spiderman we don't know much about.. unless we will connect it with his prequels

Fantastic story intuition, you two. I’m always amazed how you always guess story points moments before they occur! And you're so good at getting into the characters' heads -- you can even foretell what they may say. What magic you both have! As for the movie stories involving Spider-Man, it's somewhat complicated... Here's a general overview: There are 3 different movie story lines for Spider-Man because Marvel Studios went through three different Hollywood production agreements: (1) Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2, and Spider-Man 3 were made with Marvel Studios working with Columbia Pictures. Spider-Man 3 did not make as much money as was hoped for, so they decided to “reboot” the Spider-Man story. (2) The Amazing Spider-Man and its sequel The Amazing Spider-Man 2 were the rebooted story line of Marvel Studios and Columbia Pictures. While these movies were being made, Disney was making production agreements with Marvel, and eventually Disney ended up purchasing Marvel. (3) After Disney purchased Marvel Studios, the MCU was officially born. Spider-Man then got integrated into a new movie story line. In this movie story line, a story line that the Marvel comic books had for many decades, Spider-Man knows Iron Man, the Avengers, etc. as he does in the comic books. So Spider-Man was rebooted again by Disney into the MCU that exists today. As you probably figured out by now, the 3 movie story lines are not directly connected to each other. They are all good, each in their own unique way, at showing how much background this one Marvel character has -- Spider-Man is Marvel's flagship character, and now has over 60 years of storytelling about him made by Marvel (which began in 1962). And so, the moral of the story with Spider-Man and Marvel is that no one story line tells everything about Spider-Man fully. Marvel is always generating multiple story lines and multiple universes in multiple media (comic books, cartoons, The MCU, etc.), and in some way some version of Spider-Man will always be in all of them.
