This sounds like a mobile game. They would be idiots to not call it the Spectacular Spider-Man.

I dunno, I could see them ditching The _______ Spider-Man to avoid anything remotely close to The Amazing Spider-Man

 

[Busty]

Ironic title given that Sony Pictures are wholly financing and distributing the film worldwide.

It's less of a 'homecoming' for Spider-Man and more of a visitation from his family as he serves a life sentence in a maximum security prison...., in space.

Spider-Man And His Amazing Friends (From Other Marvel Films)

 

[richiek]

There is exactly zero demand for a new spiderman film. Even spidey fans are tired of this shit.

Give it a rest.

lol

Is that his sister?

hehehehe

Yeah, Homecoming sounds like more of a subtitle for the animated movie. It wouldn't be a bad name for Holland's movie, but it's not that great.

 

[Tevren]

Spider-Man re-Pete'd.

Yet another Spiderman reboot. Fuck

Where have you been?

What about Avenging Spider-Man

 

[-shadow-]

Spider-Man: Who Cares What We Call It Because You're All Going To See It Anyways

I never saw the sequel to the reboot and honestly haven't even given a single thought to this new reboot. I doubt I'm actually going to watch it.

 

[Sanjuro]

Awful title. The world is ready for Spiderman.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

What about Avenging Spider-Man

even worse

 

[phanphare]

they should just call it "Spider-Man: We Promise Not to Fuck it up This Time. Honest. We Got Marvel in on it. You Guys Like Them, Right?"

 

[Arnie7]

lol that can't be true.

 

[B33]

Just make a good Spider-Man movie, Marvel/Sony.

I don't care what you call it.

Edit: Fine, they're both responsible.

Thanks for posting. That was really amazing. Pure, childlike excitement.

[CloudyTuba]

What Homecoming story are they talking about? When I search the googles, I come up with 252 which is about Spider-Man coming back home from Secret Wars with his Symbiote costume. I'm thinking I must have the wrong one.

 

[old manatee]

Man, I hope they finally tell us about Spider-Man's origins.

It doesnt have to be an adaption.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

Awful title. The world is ready for Spiderman.

This...actually would be a good title. Unorthodox, but they said they wanted to go for an indie vibe with this one.

The World Is Ready For Spider-Man

 

[Busty]

Just make a good Spider-Man movie, Sony Pictures.

I don't care what you call it.

Fixed.

Spoiler

Bring in Kraven the Hunter as the antagonist, and reveal in the climax that him and Spidey both have aunts named May. Then they become best friends.

 

[CloudyTuba]

I never said anything about the movie being an adaptation. I'm questioning the link the article is making between the title and the comic, using it to suggest that Iron Man and Cap might show up.

 

[tomtom94]

So is there any truth to the rumour about Cap and Iron Man appearing? Because that seems to be the bigger story here.

EDIT: Also

Fixed.

From what I've heard, they were involved with the casting and have to sign off on everything, but Marvel's the one who's calling the shots. Sony is just distributing the picture.

Edit: Okay, it's a collaboration.

 

[Fandangox]

Either way, it doesn't sound like this is the movie's title, maybe an indication of where they are adapting.

"The World is Ready for Spiderman" has a nice ring to it.

I think it will just be "Spider-Man" though.

 

[Kilrogg]

Spider: man, remember the first movie? That one was good.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

So is there any truth to the rumour about Cap and Iron Man appearing? Because that seems to be the bigger story here.

It was said since the deal was reached that there would be one or more appearances from Avengers characters in the solo movie.

 

[richiek]

Or have Kingpin mention Vanessa and Peter replies by saying that that's Aunt May's middle name.

 

[Kevinroc]

So nobody is talking about Morlun as the possible villain? I must admit, I would not expect interdimensional energy draining steampunk vampire as the first villain in a new Spidey film franchise.

 

[B33]

Thanks for the free idea for my Spidey spec script.

 

[Busty]

Sony are wholly financing the film. Fiege has a producing credit for sure but at the end of the day Disney isn't even an active investor in the film's production.

You are delusional if you think all Sony is doing on this film is signing cheques. Especially with Tom Rothman at the helm.

They could use the version where he wasnt made shitty, but I dont see him showing up in the first movie

Lol this is good.

The first JMS ASM trade was called "Coming Home." That was the story that introduced Morlun.

(That was the joke.)

Yeah, you're right, Marvel's not entirely in charge, but I've heard Sony has had a back and forth with them throughout the process so far.

If anything, it's a collaboration. I should have said "Sony/Marvel."

Sony knows they messed up with The Amazing Spider-Man series. They signed a deal with Marvel because one of the most iconic comic book characters of all-time's movie performed under expectations because it was awful, and they know it. Otherwise, why would they agree to sit down with Disney and negotiate?

They may not be investing money, but Disney is still invested in the film. Spider-Man's in Civil War and Marvel's cinematic characters are rumored to be appearing in Spider-Man's solo movie. Like it or not, this Spider-Man is now part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and represents their brand.

They both want the movie to do well. I don't think it's unreasonable to think Marvel's a significant creative contributor to the project. This is more than just a Sony Pictures production or Marvel Studios production. It's a collaboration.

Yet another Spiderman reboot. Fuck

It's Marvel so it will be in good hands.

 

[JSevere]

I actually really like this title. Makes sense since Spidey is "coming home" to the Marvel Universe, and since it takes place in high school and homecoming is a HS event

all the other suggested titles are kinda iffy. "Ultimate Spider-Man" or "Spectacular Spider-Man" can get confused with the animated series and might be too similar to "Amazing Spider-Man", "The New Avenger" apes off "The First Avenger," etc. and I don't like just "Spider-Man" since it's too plain and there's already a movie named that
