Hello, and welcome back to another edition of CBMs Of Earth 2. This edition of the CBMs Of Earth 2 series is Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 5, in case you couldn’t read the giant title on the front of this post. This is, in fact, a continuation of Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man franchise, and will be treated as such by the team here at Blog Of Hell’s Kitchen. Anyways, let’s get started.
Release Date
11/ 7/ 2014
As a small joke, I decided to make both this film, and the next Spider-Man film, to hypothetically debut on the first Friday of November, which is where Marvel has recently started putting a movie of their own, so it comes out at the beginning of “Oscar Bait Season”, which is the period from the end of October all the way through the end of December that studios generally schedule their more artistic movies to keep them fresh in the Academy’s minds.
Cast
- Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man/Peter Parker
- Bryce Dallas Howard as Gwen Stacy
- Anne Hathaway as Black Cat/ Felicia Hardy
- J.K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson
- Rosemary Harris as May Parker
- Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane Watson
- James Cromwell as Captain George Stacy
- Ray Winstone as Kingpin/ Wilson Fisk (after credits)
Changes
Again, of course, Spider-Man 5 never happened in real life, and considering it’s hard to compare this film to something that never happened, let’s compare it to the fifth Spider-Man movie to release worldwide, The Amazing Spider-Man 2. And again, those are two completely different films. And once again, please remember, everything is different, and it’s stupid to judge a fish for it’s tree climbing ability as Einstein said. Or, don’t judge a shitty Spider-Man franchise for trying to be a quality Spider-Man franchise.
Ramifications
Now here’s where shit gets fun. In my universe, Columbia, who as you may not know, owns Sony, decides to buy the rights to Blade (and related characters, i.e. Hannibal King, or as you might know, Ryan Reynolds in Blade), Doctor Strange, Brother Voodoo, and Morbius. And since Ghost Rider has a couple scenes in the next film, his rights don’t revert back to Marvel. So, with all of those characters coming, Sony would be able to do a Midnight Sons film. If you don’t know who the Midnight Sons are, they basically a supernatural Avengers team, which just sounds like a great movie. Marvel ends up packaging most other supernatural heroes to Columbia, because Marvel doesn’t want any potentially R-Rated material, because they can be bitches, and Columbia is 110% open to it. And speaking of rights, I believe Columbia and FOX would be able to work out a plan to share Kingpin, to prevent Marvel from getting him back to use for Daredevil.
As always, thanks for reading. Join us next week for the final edition of Sam Raimi’s second Spider-Man trilogy. But until that time, thanks again for reading, and remember, to have a nerdy day.
