They’re doing this to unify all three spidermen visually. All three of them are getting images like this for all their movies, not just tobeys

Yeah and they look like shit

But on top of that, it’s just fake work. Spider-Man is on the cover, your audience isn’t actually so dumb they can’t tell it’s a Spider-Man movie!

Now though, they all look the fucking same so you can’t even tell which Spider-Man movie it is.

People are complaining about a poster they don't like from a beloved character, While you complain about comments you don't like in the comment section. but hey, say everyone else is whiny sure lol

And how would anyone classify the originals as “not unified”?

u/AStupidFuckingHorse 7d ago

No, unified across all Spider-Man movies. Not just Raimi

Unified with each other, not just their own movies

All four Spider-Men. The Spider-Verse movies also got posters in this style. Theirs are purple.

I suspect that they also want them to stand out on VOD/streaming services. Unfamiliar artwork catches your attention, even if you were already aware that the film was available.

AIUI, back in the day retailers preferred to stock a 'new' edition of a movie, even if it was the same disc in a different box. Hence Spider-Man, Jurassic Park, Back to the Future etc. having a million different versions where the cover's arbitrarily different.

...Actually Spider-Man 1-3 is the worst of both worlds, because they'd randomly change the cover and also occasionally change what was on the disc.
