    Ironically enough, you disliked what worked for the first two movies and liked wdhat didn't.

    Kirsten Dunst was a boring Jane and for the most part didn't do a thing of significance in the trilogy.
    Wait so you liked the bad acting and weird Green Goblin costume that featured spray painted air Jordan's, and boring and straight forward story telling?

    For it's time it was enough. I actually appreciate the basic approach to those films. Lots of practicality from the costume to the stunts.

    These days they combine CGI costumes with the ones they actually have to wear.

    I dont know what you expect from a comic book movie? Deep storylines? We dont even get that right now. Personally I watch for the crazy action. If I want a complex story, I'd holla at Christopher Nolan some.

    How Raimi's Spider Man movies get on when they were the ones who opened the doors wide open for studios like Marvel and DC to come in and make a zillion movies (And money) is beyond my comprehension.

    People making the trilogy out to be something that it isn't is beyond my comprehension. Just because it was fine for the time which it came out doesn't mean that it was a good franchise.

    Many comic book movies have had much more complex and deep stories and forms of story telling with better action sequences and acting, I don't think that's a reason to praise Raimi's trilogy.

    I doubt that his trilogy had any real baring on the MCUs success tbh, why didn't the trilogy open the doors for Hulk, Daredevil, and those 2 Fantastic 4 movies?

    I hated the third movie. Just letting that out there.

    By no means am I saying these sets of movies were the greatest ever. But they were good, solid.

    And I'm speaking in general. The first spider man movie proved you can make adequate superhero movies without it being super complex or strictly made for a niche group. I'm speaking in broad terms when I said "open" the doors like The Matrix did for the Scifi genre.

    Uh, looking at the next Sony movie, I may have to take back my cautious optimism. Why do people keep giving Jared Leto money?

    The Raimi trilogy is borderline unwatchable imo. I'm curious as to why you like them.

    Thought Franko's acting was comically bad, McGuire was stiff as a board, only Dunst was serviceable. Spiderman 1 was boring with an odd costume design for the Green Goblin,

    2 was a lot better but that was because the Doc Oc- Spider-Man fight scenes still holdup.

    Spider-Man 3 is on par with Venom as worst Marvel movie of the 2000s. Sony really ed up Venom, just a brutal watch.
    Spidey 3 was awful

    Lol at emo Parker and lol casting Topher Grace

    Topher was great as Eric Forman, but other than that role he sucks

    mindless entertainment is what the masses seek tbh. the more action, less thinking, the better. i understand their value but damn i am just sick of looking at the marquee and seeing nothing but comics these days just like turning on the tv and having a 10+yr hangover from realityTv.

    i don't necessarily. i just don't understand mainstream mentality i suppose. i don't like pop music and i don't really care for cheesy kid comics.

    asking if people are sick of comic movies isn't telling them to stop watching them. watch them but i'll continue to that hollywood is in the dumps regardless.

    as for "burn hollywood burn" yes i hope hollywood crashes and burns. not only the studios but the pol ideology too.

    Not to derail the -talking...

    But Sony came out and said that "the door is shut" for a Marvel deal and confirmed that Spiderman will join the Venom-verse. They also said that they are working on six Spider/Venom/Sony-verse tv shows. It sounds to me that Sony was counting on Spiderman being a temporary loaner all along.
