Fantastic four
Punisher
Like cmon, there are so many awesome movies that could be done, Guardians of the Galaxy was a great surprise but I wanna see Carnage, Gambit (properly) Venom (also properly), Galactus...

I believe as far as X-Men and Spider-Man go they have a 'use it or lose it' contract for the characters rights. If they don't use the characters within X amount of years, they default back to Marvel. That is what happened with Punisher.
So they will continue to reboot it and milk the cash cow until it runs dry.
Here is a popular image showing the film rights spoilered for size. Now Sony has Spider-Man linked with Marvel now on a tentative basis.
