You're not understanding what I'm talking about. Marvel and Sony have had a 50-50 joint venture in Spider-Man merchandising since Sony purchased the rights back in 1999. What Disney did was simplify the relationship by purchasing the full merchandising rights for the character from Sony in exchange for their participation in the films...in other words Disney has absolutely no say in what goes on in Spider-Man films, unlike what some people think is going on right now. The most they can do is probably use certain things from the Sony films in their own due to the purchase of the merchandising rights which probably simplified what exactly Disney is allowed to use in their films...there's likely nothing else besides that.
I heard somewhere that Marvel studio looks into the movies to ensure that the character isnt bastardised too much or something
