When in doubt, spiderman thread.

Rule to live by.

[–]someone_FIN -2 points-1 points ago

Wat.

[–]ColeCola12 49 points50 points ago

He wasn't in the movie because in the comcs he wasn't introduced until later. (Avengers 2)

[–]gevlah 52 points53 points ago

Marvel also doesn't own the rights, unfortunately. So we may not end up seeing him in A2.

[–]Thor4269 11 points12 points ago

Didn't they just rebuy the rights for the amazing spiderman this summer? Idr

[–]Flytch 18 points19 points ago

The Amazing Spiderman is being produced by Sony, who do own the rights.

[–]ZeekySantos 6 points7 points ago

Do you think Sony would be super nice and lend the rights for the avengers movie? Or even for a price?

[–][deleted] 21 points22 points ago

lets be honest with ourselves....

[–]ZeekySantos 9 points10 points ago

You're right. Sony does have a track history of being pretty cool guys. Not like those assholes over at Valve.

[–]sparton192 1 point2 points ago

You broke my funny bone :(

[–]Chicken-n-Waffles 3 points4 points ago

It has nothing to do with characters but business. Paramount bailed Fox out on the budget for Titanic if they got distribution rights internationally.

Likewise, Sony would want the same bit since it's a Disney/Paramount film, there isn't room for a third. And Sony has their own picture out this summer with Spider-man that they don't want to dilute the public psyche with too many Spider-man movies.

I'm sure Fox would want to do the same with X-men but that also has contracts with talent to deal with . Would it count as one of the three films or not? If not, then can the talent negotiate a larger pay scale? Would the talent want to suit up and share screen time with the centered talent as part of a contract deal?

[–]ZeekySantos 2 points3 points ago

I was making a joke, but okay buddy. I'll take that explanation at face value. Seems legit enough.

[–]SOLUNAR 0 points1 point ago

^ i wish reddit had more of these replies

[–]nitefang -1 points0 points ago

Well, seeing as how they just restarted the franchise in order to keep the rights, I think Marvel can't offer them enough for the rights.

[–]Thor4269 0 points1 point ago

Makes sense

[–]whitetzor 0 points1 point ago

Serious question, why do they show the marvel thing before the movie then and not a Sony start up thingy

[–]shitterplug -4 points-3 points ago

Good... I can't fucking stand Spiderman.

[–]monocle_otter 11 points12 points ago

i'm glad at least a couple of people know why he wasn't in the avengers first movie

[–]hoojAmAphut 9 points10 points ago

The comicbook universe pisses me off. New York is Spidermans city... was he in another country during the invasion? What about the Fantastic Four? Couldn't be bothered to dick with it? X-men? RAAAAAAAGEEEEEEE

[–]James_Wolfe 16 points17 points ago

Spiderman is not Spiderman yet, the X-men were out of town, the Fantastic Four are just assholes.

[–]SocietalReject 1 point2 points ago

FF were off-world?

[–]Betterthanthrown 0 points1 point ago

Off dimension

[–]monocle_otter 2 points3 points ago

i tip my hat to you sir, i was thinking about this also but when ever i would bring it up, people would be like " they aren't part of the avengers".

[–]poompt 1 point2 points ago

Considering his impending reboot, I'm assuming he's not yet become Spiderman.

[–]Methedras 9 points10 points ago

Sony owns the rights to spiderman films. He will likely never be seen in an avengers film, or any other film that sony do not also own the rights to.

[–]capt_0bvious -2 points-1 points ago

he was probably being a bitch and crying in his bedroom or something because he can't get a girl.

[–]Darthferret 10 points11 points ago

no...... he's owned by sony thats why

[–]maplebars 0 points1 point ago

More people need to know this

[–]IPThereforeIAm 5 points6 points ago

Looks like his first foot didn't catch the wall.

[–]CasedOutside -4 points-3 points ago

FALSE.

[–]PhiladelphiaIrish 3 points4 points ago

It looks like this guy was doing it for a kid's party, and the flips he did before he failed were actually impressive. Video.

[–]Dead_Rooster 0 points1 point ago

He handled that like a champ.

[–]Knightmare 5 points6 points ago

The pros all learn to let their spines take the brunt of the fall.

[–]jarjack -1 points0 points ago

lol

[–]DeathAngelNick 1 point2 points ago

I thought it was because spiderman wasnt a main avenger.I mean there are tons of avengers but Hulk,Thor,Captain America,Ironman,Wasp,Ant Man,Hawk Eye,Nick Fury,and Black Widow always struck me as the main ones.

[–]epraider 0 points1 point ago

Well, he was a New Avenger, and he's currently part of the Avengers and the Fantastic Four. I think he wins.

[–]afanofBTBAM 0 points1 point ago

wheres the video of arthur the weather man laughing at the video this is from? i was gonna link to it but i couldnt find it on youtube :C

[–]SHMEEGMAN 0 points1 point ago

Actually, if anyone gets down this far, Spider man is in The Avengers movie. He just doesn't have a main role. He has a cameo for all of 4 seconds

[–]Mac_Attack18 -1 points0 points ago

what scene?

[–]SHMEEGMAN -1 points0 points ago

The scene where Tony Stark says "I'm bringing the party to you" right before that you can see him on the ground (its an aerial shot) web slinging people out of the way from falling debris

[–]redfive5tandingby 0 points1 point ago

Pics or it didn't happen.

[–]Bk7 0 points1 point ago

Ah yes, the rare and elusive, Peter Parkour

[–]Blink182ismeh 0 points1 point ago

I'm glad disney doesn't have the rights to spiderman yet and hope they never do, every marvel movie they've put out has been a let down, the stories have been horrible, and they're putting way too many out

[–]nutella_vermin -1 points0 points ago

[–]elfurioso -1 points0 points ago

This is probably my favorite video on the Internet. I've seen it I don't know how many times and it still brings be to tears.

[–]soadscars -1 points0 points ago

It's okay he has time to practice

[–]fechera -1 points0 points ago

If I have learned anything from MotoGP crashes, that is a broken collarbone.

[–]toppswagg -1 points0 points ago

I don't think you should be in an action movie with a broken neck

[–]newingtonnew -1 points0 points ago

I love how he was shambling up to the wall.

[–]MikielJackson -1 points0 points ago

This gif is hilarious - thank you.

[–]rrtaylor -1 points0 points ago

I love when he tries to recover and play it off like he's not in agony

[–]GarbagePailChud -1 points0 points ago

At least he made it into The Italian Job!
