132 My Pitch For Sony's Spider-Man-Less Cinematic Universe

April 01, 2017 04:54

So Sony has green-lit a Venom movie for 2018, and they are working on Black Cat and Silver Sable movies as well, but there's the catch...they will not take place in the MCU, so they will not be able to interact with the current onscreen Spider-Man. Is this a good idea or a bad one? Are there other Spider-Man heroes and villains that could have good films? Listen in to hear my thoughts on this recent announcement!
