They COULD HAVE DONE IT, legally The people saying "They didn't have the rights" are incorrect, they do have all the rights to MAKE the movie, that's why Hulk can be in crossover movies But any Hulk movie has to be DISTRIBUTED by Universal

You, the moviegoer seeing it in a theater, would not have noticed any difference, other than the Universal logo at the beginning of the credits But Disney would've noticed Universal picking up a nice chunk of change for every ticket sold, and they would have been PISSED

And then they wouldn't have been able to put the movies on Disney+ without paying Universal a huge amount of money and Universal probably would've cut a separate deal with Netflix to show the movie there, or made it a "Peacock Live exclusive" or something

In the long run this wouldn't have made Peacock Live much more of a threat to Disney+ (I guess it depends how good these hypothetical movies would've been) But Disney would've been PISSED

It's pretty obvious the only reason Spider-Man worked out the way it did was because Sony was continuously faceplanting and Disney offered a ridiculous deal Sony felt obligated to take. None of the same leverage is available for Universal.

I'm low-key expecting there to someday be a deal between Disney and Universal where Universal gets something really major and Disney just gets Hulk movie rights and some theme park rights.

I can literally imagine them negotiating over the final, "modern" sitcom parody on WandaVision (the one most relevant to their current bottom line) "If you have to reference an NBC sitcom make it The Office That ship has sailed in terms of cultural impact"

Getting in a fight over "We don't want the show to remind people of The Good Place" "But the WHOLE IDEA reminds people of The Good Place"

So the house in that episode looks very close to the Modern Family house and the marketing emphasized the connection to Modern Family even though when they were writing it they were absolutely thinking of the tone of a Michael Schur sitcom (Office/Parks & Rec/The Good Place)

I totally didn't get The Office from it at all, since I primarily associate that with Ricky Gervais' shit UK original. (Are you offended Ricky? Stop namesearching yourself so).
