Film director Sam Raimi and Sony Pictures have decided to call it quits on their attempt to make Spider-Man 4 a reality. The two parties couldn't see eye to eye and decided best to move on.
I felt Raimi did incredible work on his Spider-Man Trilogy. However, many people felt disappointed with Spider-Man 3. I personally loved the flick, but there were moments in it you could feel the creative well beginning to dry up a bit.
After the film's release, Raimi even admitted his displeasure with some of the film's creative side. He wanted to make Spider-Man 4 a reality so that he could have one last great entry in the series.
I think this is for the best. Spider-Man 4 would have been released in 2011, Tobey Maguire's Peter Parker just exited high school and is attending university. Maguire turns 36 in 2011. Yeah, the age thing is hard to cover up. Plus, it would have been 4 years since the last flick. Time sure fly's by.
Everyone is moving on now. Sony has just announced the series will have a reboot, returning Parker and friends to high school for new Spidey adventures. Hooray!
