I'm thrilled about this news. Hopefully they realize that they cannot really do another origin story and ape the Hulk reboot.

They should have their pick of directors for this one, considering the payday that will be involved. I don't think that there is any need to try and make Spiderman as dark as Batman, since the characters are so different.

My biggest complaint about Tobey Maguire is that he was a horrendous Spiderman. His Peter Parker stuff was fine (other than the blight that was Spiderman 3), but he wasn't funny and there wasn't a lot of attention paid to his scientific skills in the course of his conflict with the villains. Also, other than the fight with Dr. Octopus in the 2nd one, the action sequences were not as strong as other franchises, IMO.

I hope there are huge changes to the franchise.
