All studios who own Marvel properties should join together and make a Civil War adaptation. Make it a 3.5 hour epic movie.

Yeah, Marvel! Stop being stupid! Why don't they just do a DC crossover as well? Everyone's been asking for it. Batman vs Avengers vs Spiderman

@StingyFox

though the x-men universe cant fit into the mcu
the x universe has too much problem, and depths as is. it wouldnt fit into the crossovers, but spiderman can.

it'll never happen. Everything that the cinema sins guy said can be refuted. Sure they love money but having Spidey in avengers will not in any way improve avengers box office. everyone who watches spiderman already watches Avengers. Note: i said avengers and not cap or thor or even iron man. The marginal income from spidey in avengers is close to zero.

Next, opening up xmen to avengers just makes the two universes incompatible. this aint a fuccking comic book. in avengers there is no acknowledgement of mutants existing. Same with spidey films there are no hints that the avengers exist. there are many more reasons. Spiderman in x-men is just another mutant. there is nothing fantastic about 4 in the x-men universe. once again, you can do it in the comics as there are only less then half a million comic book fans or even less. With movies, people want grit, realism and consistencies. the audience of the movies is largely non-comic book readers who dont give a shit and will never pick up a comic book.

For Marvel, Sony and Fox's sake, a crossover should be set in an alternate universe. Same actors, same setting they've laid out for each franchise, just pretend as if they've co-existed all along. None of them have to worry about it affecting future films/story, unless they want it to.

Problem is who would direct it.

I agree. I think Sony, however, has always had a shred of pride when consulting Marvel about a possible crossover. Sony has never said "just take him for a film and have him play with the Avengers". I'm starting to think Sony might do just that. Look at the post-Avengers bump that Iron Man got. Iron Man got a whooping 94.8% increase in its box office from its last film. In comparison, should Sony's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 top out at around $710 milion (which I think it likely), The Amazing Spider-Man 3 would make around $1.3 billion. Marvel would, then, also be able to use Spider-Man which they've never been able to use before and, perhaps, increase their profit margin. I don't know if it would make more money than it would otherwise because I simply don't know and neither would the studios. But if it makes more than The Avengers, Marvel would at least have reason to question if it helped.

The X-men universe is in the 70s right now. Next movie will be in the 80s. Eventually they can do a modern day Avengers crossover.
Stryker and Trask were Hydra. Take it from there.

Or they could do a 3-part 3-studio Civil War, which each studio taking a movie a piece.

Nah just kidding. Not gonna happen.

dang, CinemaSins creativeness has really taken a tumble since last year..
this videos used to be good and make sense..
now its almost like they are doing this just to talk s#it..
one can tell just by going around this site that the majority of people dont want Fox's X-men to cross over with movies by MS due to inconsistency and lack of well written stories.. except for Xmen2, FC, and DOFP, that people feel its safe to say Fox is in the right path..

I think a X-men X Avengers is more likely. For those of you saying it could never happen because they don't even acknowledge mutants exist you obviously didn't stay around for the end credits scene of Cap 2. They don't have the rights to "mutants," so hence "the age of miracles." Marvel is trying to work mutants into their MCU as best they can. I'm sure if they had the rights it'd be the age of mutants instead. They're just trying to work in characters who were born with superpowers. We'll that's the way I see it anyway. With ALL the villains in the Spidey universe coming from ONE source it'd be hard to believe that The Avengers just wouldn't say, "hey it seems this guy is the reason for all these super powered villains," and then just wipe him out in one shot. The only way they I could see them fitting in Spidey is if he did like a cameo (say the end fight sequence) where a lot of secondary/undeveloped characters were introduced or used. Avengers 3. It will happen. There's no way that the current Avengers alone could take on Thanos. I imagine its going to be 3 hours of everyone from the Avengers (including the characters they add before then), GOTG, as well as the tv universe.

Dear CinemaSins,

I enjoy your videos nitpicking movies and take them all in good fun, even when I don't agree. But whenever you talk about Marvel comics characters, you make me roll my eyes so hard I think I can see my own brain die. Please talk about something else from now on.

Sincerely,
Spock o'Clock (AKA Party Time)

I like his idea. Spidey shows up in Avengers, and an Avenger or two shows up in one of his movies. It's brilliant!

In order to get a Marvel vs DC cross over, we must first get over the large wall that separates Marvels various properties. I still find it stupid that we can't even get one singular Marvel Cinematic Universe. Oh well, at least we're getting more movies out of this!

I'd be down for it happening but it'll never happen. Spidey has a "slight" chance and that's it...

More likely to see Dark Horse/Image/Valiant characters to crossover on the big screen first than Marvel characters spanning several studios happening sadly.

I would actually love for it to happen but i don't see a crossover happening any time soon. I only wish that Marvel acquires the rights to Spider-man and The Fantastic Four.

more likely to see a Spiderman & X-men crossover !
