When The Verse is shaped by multiple creators, writing independently. Many different comic book titles are set in a collective continuity, making it easy to have a Crossover. In contrast, a single TV series with multiple writers is just the Verse with subcontractors. Likewise, when different continuities by the same author are tied together later by an Intercontinuity Crossover, that's Canon Welding.
The nature of the Shared Universe — multiple independent creators creating one continuity — can easily lead to a Continuity Snarl if it lasts a long time and the different creators don't take care to keep things straight. If a Shared Universe starts relying too heavily on continuity, especially if it's obscure or too reliant on each work in the Verse, a Continuity Lock Out may occur. When creators disagree on the direction the Verse should take, they may fight Armed with Canon. If some corners of the continuity are "off limits" to some characters to avoid theme-drift or plot derailing, then Superman Stays Out of Gotham.
When they go back centuries, and even further and further, long before copyrights and trademarks , the Shared Universe turns into one or more actual mythologies. Compare with The Verse, Expanded Universe and Canon. Contrast with Shout-Out.
Disney Live Action Reimaginings
The franchise "Disney Live Action" is unique, it is composed of several films all taking place in the same universe of fiction or rather world of anthology, until now the brand "Disney Live Action" is specified in its creation of remake of its classics, contrary to what many believe the franchise only includes films drawn or close to Fairytales, in this a live film about Mickey, Donald, Tarzan, Robin Hood or spin-off on Minnie or others would not be considered as a member of the franchise like Pete's Dragon was not, On the contrary of Fantasia which would be considered as such, Even if Oz is not a remake of a Disney classic, his live film is a member of the franchise, And even if Mary Poppins returns is a sequel to the original, the feature film is one of the future films of the series contrary to the original, the cinematic saga starting on the first stone of its edifice: Alice in wonderland in 2010, no other film made before is canon within the franchise. Since its inception the saga has spawned two films on Alice in Wonderland plus Cinderella, Maleficent, The Jungle Book, Beauty and the Beast and Oz, the Great and Powerful, several films are planned to incorporate the franchise: Aladdin, Tinker Bell, Peter Pan, Mulan, Snow White, Lion King, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Little Mermaid, Pocahontas, Prince Charming and many others. The franchise is one of the most lucrative of all time at the box office, the series of films spawned over $ 5 billion worldwide. since September the franchise has officially a name: Disney Live Action Reimaginings.
2010 Alice in Wonderland
2013 Oz, the Great and Powerful
2014 Maleficent
2015 Cinderella
2016 Alice Through the Looking Glass The Jungle Book
2017 Beauty and the Beast
Film
- Because Marvel Films holds the rights to all Marvel Comics characters not given to other studios (Spider-Man, X-Men, Blade, Daredevil, etc), they have managed to bridge together a single continuity family with links between the characters stories. Nick Fury makes a cameo in Iron Man referring Tony Stark to the "Avenger Initiative," Tony appears in the film of The Incredible Hulk talking to General Ross about putting a team together (also having a nod to Captain America), Iron Man II gave many hints to The Mighty Thor, and all of this will coalesce into The Avengers movie as a Crisis Crossover.
List of Shared Universe:
this list contains shared universes and not extended universes like Star Wars, X-Men, Despicable Me that do not group characters from different universes but to extend theirs.
Marvel Cinematic Universe
the shared universe based on DC comic-book characters
MonsterVerse
Dark Universe
Disney Live Action Reimaginings
the world of disney heroines:
snow-white, cinderella, aurora, belle, mulan, pocahontas, merida, rapunzel, tiana, moana, anna, elsa, alice, esmeralda, megara, jane, dorothy and even why not added the princesses or heroines of live action movies (prince of persia's tamina, john carter's dejah thoris, tron legacy's quorra, glinda from the oz movie and tomorrowland's casey) to confront a wicked witch or a evil queen who will be theodora or the first live action version of the evil queen from snow-white. this would probably be one of the first shared universes composed only of girls!
idea name of the universe: disney girl's power universe
the clash of the slashers:
freddy, jason, michael, leatherface are known as the fab four, but there are also many other popular slashers or serial killers, (pennywise, the dancing clown, carrie, chucky) take the freddy's 2010 version, the 2009 jason version, the 2007 michael myers version, the leatherface's 2003 version, the 2013 carrie version and the 2017 pennywise version ! get them together! this will be the most gore universe of all shared universes!
idea name of the universe: the slasher universe
the girl of star wars:
a star wars story adjunct to the main universe, just the time for a movie, see rey, jyn, leia and padme fight an army of stormtroopers or deathstroopers.
idea name of the universe: still à one-off, adjunct to the main universe, not canon, a what-if scenario, so still in the star wars brand.
some other little idea of universe:
King Arthur vs Robin Hood Universe
Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot meets Arsene Lupin
The Spy Universe: composed of 007, James Bond and Jason Bourne, then add Ethan Hunt's Mission Impossible and Bryan Mills from Taken. And maybe John Wick.
The Thing vs The Fly
Pinhead vs Jigsaw the torture horror universe
add Wall-E in the Star Wars Universe
add John McLane in the Spy Universe
add Katniss in the Star Wars Universe
Katniss and the world of hunger games has always sounded like a star wars on a futuristic land, insert a gadget version of katniss still incarnated by jennifer lawrence, this will only increase the resemblance with jyn erso.
the carry-bears kiss or punch the teletubbies the disney pet's universe Winnie the Pooh, Piglet Baloo from The Jungle Book and more animals fight a common threat.
add the Lord of the Rings universe to the Snow White Chronicles Universe some theories argue that the fans wants the two universes maybe linked already and the duology is a sequel to the LOTR and hobbit trilogies. Arwen and Snow White are so similar. Why not ? the Duology of Snow White is not really a fairytale movie but more a fantasy film like the middle earth universe.
the boom of human-robots:
the terminator vs robocop
one comes from the future of the future, the other from a near future, one is a robot with a human appearance, the other a human with the appearance of a robot, always assimilated, that even gave a comic!
idea name of the universe: nope, just a crossover
the minions against the rabbids !
the minions and the raving rabbids who clash for the supremacy of the moon, everyone has always assimilated the adorable yellow fellow to the stuppid little rabbits, a vs. movie would be the most joyfully silly fight of all time! make it happen!
idea name of the universe: a crossover, after everybody leaves on his side.
girl of the future: aeon flux vs ghost in the shell
the most futuristic fight: aeon flow against mira killian, charlize theron against scarlett johansson, no barrier, it's paramount both!

here we are not going to talk about shared universes "dreamed", but really plausible universes, especially if they are produced by the same company or studio, and that a link is really visible even if subtle.
Slasher Universe from Platinum Dunes
the remakes of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, a Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th, have something in common, they were all produced by the same production company: Platinum Dunes, all have the same tone, the same vibe, the even aesthetic, and above all, above all, they were all created by the same man: Michael Bay, the director of Transformers, Armageddon or Pearl Harbor. a quasi-shared shared universe: two things missing: a weak connection between the movies AND especially a remake of the only slasher that Mister Bay could not do. Halloween remake by Michael Bay did not see the day, although some artwork hang on the Net, the Slasher Universe is like the Dark Universe of Universal: Incomplete. pity... because not to be mistaken, it is clear that it was the project: a slasher universe, but what could be happening so that we could not see the most anticipated confrontation of the horror cinema: Freddy vs. Jason vs. Michael. vs Leatherface? !!
Aeon Flux and Ghost in the Shell by Paramount
there is a strong link between Aeon Flux and Ghost in the Shell, both have a similar plot, the two heroines are very similar, each has been "reprogrammed" and it might surprise you but there is an existing link that gives believe that YES, Paramount looked to weave a link between Ghost in the shell (2017) and reconnect the original 2005 Aeon Flux that would have been canon in the timeline and would make Ghost in the Shell the "sequel" of Aeon Flux !
Until March 2017, we can not know if the similarities between the 'Ghost in the Shell' and 'Aeon Flux' poster, with Charlize Theron, are just an anecdote or go beyond that. And he had to go to the evidence since it is a Twitter surfer who discovered what Paramount sought to hide! After the release of the first poster and trailer of the movie adaptation of the anime, some users have observed the similarities between the poster of the film and that of 'Aeon Flux'. Compare the two and draw your own conclusions.
https://twitter.com/Rlamperez Ric @Rlamperez "I think the #GhostInTheShell poster reminds me of something ... Even the typography of the actress' name is the same."
Paramount therefore wanted to get the message through a poster, so we could see a future movie or charlize theron might have taken his role as Aeon Flux to ally with the Major, Ghost in the shell. an missed opportunity.
and if the typography of the poster is not enough: a little reminder: the posters of A Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th remakes also have the same typography ...
Most Complicated Movie Franchise Timeline
you want a drawing?
It has nothing to do with movies, but I find it worse mistake was to let go SW in all directions, indeed it is good that it is diversified in several media (comics, novel, series, ect ...) But at the level of consistency there is nothing to respect (I think especially TCW), I do not know what the office of chronological management (if there exists ^^) but they are at the there should be a charter to respect before every book and script is written, but good business business. and at a certain moment one will wonder "that became the characters of Star Wars: rebels for all this time without ever appearing at any moment in the films ... At the same time Ewoks that overwhelm a whole battalion of Stormtrooper, it especially hurts to close a trilogy. This is not a battle that can be expected ! So... But that's another story !
the crossover Alien vs Predator is officially his own thing, Alien: covenant even insisted on it, david is the creator of xenomorphs, and never aliens have come to earth, but can it prevent imagining aliens 'AvP' be another instrument found by predators or even something else too? nothing prevents imagining that another form of unknown life exists in the universe of prometheus, although it is true that predators and engineers would certainly have come into conflict at some point!
DC Comics films based on comic-books
does something contradict the existence of the trilogy The Dark Knight? simply No ! Fans who expected to hear the name of a character already familiar to readers were shocked to discover in Justice League #50 that there aren't just one, but in fact three Jokers laughing maniacally around the streets of Gotham City. Unfortunately, we still don't know their names yet. Sneaky chair. So the Heath Ledger's Joker could still exist within the dc universe currently set up. And even the end of The Dark Knight Rises refers to the beginning of Batman v Superman, a bruce wayne towards retirement, aging, ready to go back to battle. Even Wonder Woman to some extent deregulate the chronology of the universe of movies, in Man of Steel, it was well said that superman was the first supernatural encounter of the human world ?! how can humanity be so surprised to see superman when wonder woman existed long before it !? so yes, the Christopher Nolan's Batman can very well be perceived as canon. Can Batman Begins be seen as the starting point of the chronology of the DC universe? well, we could almost tell you that yes!
Interesting Thing About the Ending of ASM2 When Spidey is about to fight the Rhino, his last words in the whole franchise is... "Ahh. There's no place like home." End scene
It's kinda funny how he said that. Considering right after that, Sony let Marvel use Spider-Man and now Homecoming exists. It's almost like they knew ahead of time he was gonna be back in the MCU.
would the amazing spider-man be semi-canon to the mcu? Do the duo of films contradict the events of homecoming? after all the series netflix have completely fucked in the air any trace of coherence within the universe of movies, so we are not close to that!
nothing ! nothing has ever really been clarified! Daniel Craig's James Bond is the same as the one represented by Sean Connery or Pierce Brosnan, we do not know!
