...for all of Disneys rights in Star Wars. This means Disney also gets the video game rights to Spider-Man, but they also lose all the theme park and merchandising rights (as well as film, TV, comic book, etc.) rights to Star Wars.

Disney doesn't even have in house studios for video games anymore. Everything is outsourced.

It's not worth it.

By the way, this doesnt necessarily mean Sony gets those Star Wars theme parks. Disney still owns the lands and assets. But Disney would have to retcon those parks to not be Star Wars, license the theme park rights from Sony, or sell the parks to Sony.

Sony only has rights to the movies. Why would Disney give up the rights to any of their properties, let alone Star Wars?

Disney still owns the rest of the rights to Spider-Man.

Because Spider-Man is the most profitable Marvel character of all time, and its clear that Disney has a hard on for owning it. Also, Disney drove the value of Star Wars into the ground.

I don't see any scenario where the movie rights for Spider-man would be worth more than the entirety of Star Wars.

Even Far From Home (which is the most successful Spider-man movie of all time) only made a smidge more than Rise of Skywalker.

The rightwing conspiracy theory that Star Wars is worthless now and Disney is bleeding money from it is constantly hilarious. Fuck off SMAL

Disney would never do this. I can see them trading away Movie rights with the caveat that Disney has full streaming distribution rights but Disney is essentially a toy company and most of the star Wars money comes from merchandise.

Huh, when you put it that way, any movie that Disney produces is basically a long ass advertisement for their toys & other merchandise.

Spiderman isn't worth all of star wars even after the past 10 years.

Like Spiderman pre MCU would maybe be worth Star Wars post Lucas. But the MCU and Amazing Spiderman films have greatly negated Spidermans influence.

That's a description of cartoons in general, but Disney also has a brand identity and some things are more valuable to the brand than others. Star Wars doesn't have the 90-year history with the Disney brand that Mickey Mouse does. It will always be considered a George Lucas thing they bought.
