Most of Sony's value is tied up in the electronics side of the business. In terms of media power alone, Sony is weaker than Disney - it ranks around 6th while Disney is 1st, and is about 1/5th the value. Regardless, Disney's also far influential because they tend to control more facets of media (ie, the main reason why everyone was so afraid of a Fox-Disney deal, making them even more powerful). And they're VERY willing to strong-arm almost anyone to get their way whenever they feel the need to do so. It's the same mentality that makes them famous for being one of the most litigious media companies out there as well. To be fair, was Sony going to make more money on Spidey going it alone than they would letting Mauschwitz run the show? I have my doubts there. Venom - Budget $100M. It made $205.2M globally. Far From Home - $160M. It made $1.131B globally. I'm not quite seeing how playing nice with Disney is them getting the short end of the stick here. --- The SBA has closed for business, we thank you for your patronage Assassins. ~there's always free cheese in a mousetrap. <cite>WhiskeyDisk posted [p:928051368] in Valley of ...
