Sony should just return the rights to Spider-Man live action and focus on the animated movies.
It wouldn't matter. Disney would fuck them up. All of them.
Let Sony have one stinker.
Disney has been hit and miss. Sony has been all misses. GotG3 was good, and many of the shows, Loki, Echo, What If, Moon Knight, they have been good. I enjoyed She-Hulk, but I understand why many people didn't.
The point is, Morbius could be morbin around in the background of the upcoming Blade movie. Symbiotes could have been connected to the Necrosword. Kingpin, Daredevil, and Punisher are all coming back to the MCU and it would be excellent if they had Kraven, Rhino, Vulture, Shocker, Prowler, Doctor Octopus, Chameleon, et. al. to interact with.
Yeah 6 years ago I may have thought that letting Disney get all fragments of marvel IPs under their belt was for the best but I'm pretty sure Disney would just pump out similar bland garbage now.
I'm a big believer that bland is worse than bad, although it's worth saying the Sony movies have been bland, they've been less bland and more bad than the MCU.
I've been saying this for years. We can't trust Disney with ips we actually like. Especially stuff that would work better being with higher number ratings. Like pg16 or higher.
The last three live action Spider-Man movies were fantastic, though. It's everything else that they should return for sure.
You mean the 3 live action Spider-man movies made by marvel?
Are you being sarcastic? Marvel didn't make the Tom Holland Spider-Man films, they just negotiated them to be part of the MCU. Sony still made them, having final creative control over the films:

It was definitely a collaboration, each of these movies had MCU characters fairly prominent if not headlining.
Read the production section of the wiki. It talks about the agreements and how that came about.
TIL, interesting
