  I’d argue that those are Sony movies, not Marvel.

  Back when Marvel was financially struggling, they started selling off rights to various characters. Sony bought Spider-Man (and a handful of other characters), and that’s where the Tobey Maguire movies came from. It’s also why the X-men will likely never be a part of the MCU, because Sony owns the movie rights to (most of) the mutants.

  The Spiderverse movies are basically Sony riding the wake of the Tom Holland hype. To be clear, they’re phenomenal movies. But they’re only tangentially related to Marvel.

    Oh I agree, I was just being pedantic because OP said “Marvel”.

    But they also have some of the most incredible visuals I’ve ever seen in an animated movie. I still maintain that the second one could be watched entirely on mute, and you could still understand the story.

  The only Marvel movies I like and they are not even made by Marvel.

    Since I’m already being pedantic, technically produced by Marvel Entertainment.
