10 Upcoming Movies That Will Fail If They Don’t Do THIS

10. Focus More On This Corner Of Their Universe - Kraven The Hunter

At a glance, the evidence seems to suggest that Sony's Spider-Man Universe is going largely to plan at this current moment in time, with the first two so-so Venom flicks making a boatload of money and even Morbius somehow managing to become an unexpected meme hit.

However, the biggest criticism fired that last entry's way acts as a lesson that Sony would be wise not to ignore during the production of their next batch of Spider spin-off endeavours.

In tacking on a limp set of end-credits scenes depicting the MCU's Adrian Toomes (Michael Keaton) bizarrely teaming with the titular vampire (Jared Leto) late on, Sony's need to connect their universe with the Marvel Studios section of the super-sphere ultimately felt entirely unearned and desperate.

Sure, Tom Hardy's showings as the iconic symbiote didn't change the game by any means. But it did at least feel as though both stories were dedicated more to effectively establishing Eddie Brock and his immediate surroundings/dilemmas than latching onto Kevin Feige's sprawling franchise; even Let There Be Carnage's MCU-linking end-credits scene felt like it added more intrigue to the hulking alien's connection to Spidey.

And with Sony now pushing back Kraven the Hunter's release nearly ten months to October 2023, here's hoping that time is spent further fleshing out Aaron Taylor-Johnson's "animal lover" and not figuring out a way to squeeze him through a multiversal portal.
