No More Spidey!

| | Comments (5)

According to IMDB.COM:

Tobey Maguire has confirmed the upcoming Spider-man 3 will be the last time he plays the superhero on the big screen. Co-star Kirsten Dunst has also said she feels the third film will be the last in the popular franchise. Maguire says, "To me it seems like this is a natural point for the team to break up because we have a lot of story conclusions that were going along for the main characters for the first two movies and we kind of tie almost everything up for the third movie. "It feels like a trilogy to me and it feels like the end." But moviemaker Sam Raimi isn't so sure that it's all over for the web-slinging movie hero. In a recent interview, the director stated he's seriously considering a fourth film. He explains, "I love Spider-Man and I love working with Kirsten, Tobey, James Franco)... I just have to make sure that when I'm done with Spider-Man 3, I'm really still fascinated with the character. At this moment I'm fascinated with him." But Raimi insists he couldn't imagine making a fourth installment if Maguire didn't sign on for it. He adds, "I couldn't imagine it."

Good, any more then three movies and your gonna start scrapping the bottom of the barrel for Spider-Man villians, Venom is pretty much the end all, be all.

Is he nuts? He doesn't want a multi-million dollar paycheck every couple of years? Spider-man made his career! You can't just throw him away! I think he might just do a fourth one, if the price is right and Raimi wants to do one.

hahaha, you guys need to look at the big picture here. there are going to be more spidey movies. just cuz tobey and kirsten and probably raimi are off doesn't mean they won't make more. it's not their call anyway, it's marvel and sony's, and when there's money to be made, it will be made, quality be damned. look at it this way, this might be the last GOOD one, but there will be more, i promise. i know it sounds stupid, but i live in hollywood and i have an idea of how this industry works just from having open ears in the film biz.

I hope your wrong, I don't want this franchise to turn into the Batman mess all over again, and you know how long it took to get outta of that crap.

what they need to do is find a younger actor and start the ULTIMATE Spider-Man movie francise.
