Having read this I believed it was really enlightening.
I appreciate you finding the time and energy to put this
information together. I once again find myself spending a significant amount of time both reading and leaving comments.
But so what, it was still worthwhile!

Huh. That wouldn’t post either because I originally had “The obvious a-n-s-w-e-r is …” But I changed it to “The obvious choice …” and it did post. Stupid internet!
(I had to add hyphens in the previous sentence because for some reason this comment won’t post without them, maybe it doesn’t like this word?)
(had to split this up into 2 posts, wouldn’t work as one)

The obvious choice is the Black Cat, but I don’t think she can sustain her own comic book, let alone her own movie (sorry Brad).

I can’t speak for DC, but this is Sony doing this, not Marvel. They are limited by the characters in the Spider-Man universe. If there was a credible female in the Spider-Man movie universe they could spin off into their own movie, I bet they would do it in a heartbeat, anything to keep making Spider-Man related movies and keep the rights.
@#1
If I may point out the utter absurdity of the whole thing for a second, Think about this. Marvel/DC act like they are now scared to take a chance on a superhero movie with a female lead. *coughwonderwomancough* And yet they’ll try something so desperate as a movie headed by not one villain, but a whole group?
The funniest thing wil be listening to them give any excuse for it besides the obvious.
Sony executives’ response when asked when they will give up the rights to Spider-Man: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTdO-w3xnpw
I know, I know, it’s so obvious, but it needs to be stated again. This SO reeks of desperation. We CAN’T lose the rights to Spider-Man!!!!! Come up with something!!!!
Even though I am suspect of a Sinister Six movie working, I had the same misgivings about Superior Foes of Spider-Man which has turned out to be an great book, so who knows.
And The Cabin in the Woods was awesome, very smart and funny and self-referential to horror movie cliches, so this may be just what an SS movie needs.
