Sony doesn't want to lose the rights to Spidey, (or let Disney have them) so they'll crank out a movie every couple years whether it's any good or not.

Yeah it's the same with Fox and XMen. People don't really seem to care about those movies either and they are not breaking any box office records but they will keep coming because both studios know better then to hand Disney another summer franchise. The point of these movies isn't to be good or even make a lot of money on their own,it's to keep the rights away from Disney so that both studios don't have to compete with these movies but to do that they have to release a movie every couple of years or the rights go back to Marvel. So sadly for the rest of time we will get an average or worse Spiderman and Xmen movie and we will never see what Marvel would do with them.

It's sad but at least Marvel has plenty of other characters to work with.
