I don't hate the thought of a Marvel Spiderman movie. But it looks like it'll be pushing Captain Marvel and the Black Panther movies back a year each for it, which does not thrill me. It would be cool if they went with the Mike Morales version of Spidey.

Hey. New board.
I don't think we'll see a Spidey origin story from the MCU. They know better. Especially since they're bringing Spidey into an Marvel movie first. We didn't get a rehash of the hulk's origin story in The Avengers, so I don't see them giving an origin for a supporting character, especially one as iconic as him.
It will be interesting to see how they integrate him if they actually DO stick with it being the same Spidey as the last movies, though. Why didn't he help in Avengers?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
"Hulk out with your bulk out!"
excellent. I read all of that in their voices.

The best thing about the Spider-Man news is that now they can have J.K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson. I imagine the Daily Bugle has a few things to say about Tony Stark...

If I remember correctly he lives and goes to school in Queens. The battle might have been over by the time he heard what was going on.

The handwavium I heard was that he was doing damage control at home.

I don't think the Chitauri made it out of Manhattan, so any damage he had to deal with at home was probably caused by rubberneckers gawking at the big hole in the sky.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If Marvel had owned the rights to the character at that time, I would have loved to see him show up after the credits bitching about delays on the 7 train.

BTW, does Stan Lee only show up in movies coming out of Marvel Studios?
