I'd like to see a franchise reboot, myself. I mean, shit, Spidey is one of the more charismatic superheroes they have, so why do they have a guy playing him who has the personality of a dead moth?

How about a less pompous Spider Man movie where he's been Spidey for a while? Where Spider Man throws out zings and acts a little wacky like he usually does?

Where Venom actually looks like he could rip Spidey a new one, or where the Green Goblin doesn't look like a Power Rangers villain? Movies where Sandman is still a prick, and so is Harry Osbourne?

Don't get me wrong, Dafoe and Molina both stole their respective shows in the first two. I just wonder if Sam Raimi starts to crack when they give him real money to make a movie with...

my previously posted hypothesis was Raimi was pressured by Hollywood (and Marvel, possibly) to include Venom. Otherwise there would not have been one.

I mean, come on.... how you boil down an alien symbiote story that started in like 1986? Then takes years to finally become venom?

Make it just poop from the sky

Right. A Spider-Man robot that [franchise] started only but 6 years ago. It doesn't matter how you feel about the leader actor or his personality, he's not playing himself in the film. Everything you just asked ('where...') I felt Raimi accomplished. Oh well, to each his own.

Watch if they ever do a reboot of Spider-Man, all you fanboys would still find something to piss and moan about.
