Sony and Disney weave

 web of discord over 

Spider-Man

TOKYO/PALO ALTO, U.S. -- 
Walt Disney's decision to
 bar its A-list producer from l
eading future Spider-Man
movies risks a key element 
of Sony's entertainment
 business.

The duo seem to have hit an 
impasse when Disney sought 
a scheme that would split proceeds evenly.

Industry watchers speculate 
that Disney decided to walk
 away with hitmaker Kevin Feige
 after Sony balked at the proposal, fearing the loss of income.
