Raimi hasn't let me down. But bringing Gwen Stacy in at this time is bad mojo. It doesn't look like they have any plans of wrapping this up. I thought it was a trilogy - to end with III. Looks like money wins again, and I'm afraid the franchise will suffer for it.

I remember reading that Sony wanted to expand it to be six films instead of just three. Talk about overkill.

I agree there, i mean, yeah, spidey has a ton of material/story line to work with. but i think as a general rule, anymore than 3 films in a series is pushing it (though there are exceptions), but a trilogy just seems to work best.

especially with spidey how the basically simplified (well drastically simplified) his love life and combined his 2 major love interests into 1 character and took MJ who he ends up with (only cause Gwen died).

there is just too much spidey stuff that the best approach is to take the major events that any casual fan would know about and making them 3 movies. Hence the Green Goblin as his first enemy (even though he fought Doc Ock first). Otherwise it would just be too long and you risk it going downhill because people loose interest (actors, directors, studio, even fans). Hence my problem with the venom story, way too much for one movie, its at least a 2 movie set on its own.
