(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Sam Raimi quite a successful career within the movie industry currently working on the film version of the Last of us the stellar hit from Naughty dog first party studio Sony owns. Not every movie has been a critical hit Sam Raimi work on the Spider man series is mixed with the Spider man 2002 being viewed as good. Spider man 2 2004 one of the best super hero movies of all time. Spider man 3 2007 on the other hand is one of the worst superhero movies made with a plot that makes no sense being the key issue.
With many fans hating the movie however the movie was a success for Sony pictures.

Sam Raimi was willing to admit in a recent interview 'it didn't work very well,"

"I tried to make it work, but I didn't really believe in all the characters, so that couldn't be hidden from people who loved Spider-Man. If the director doesn't love something, it's wrong of them to make it when so many other people love it."

"I think [raising the stakes after Spider-Man 2] was the thinking going into it, and I think that's what doomed us. I should've just stuck with the characters and the relationships and progressed them to the next step and not tried to top the bar."

Later he said awful over bad was the word needed to talk about the movie.

Reboot The Amazing Spider-Man is not winning over many fans. David fincher released some details on the direction he would take the series he was rumoured to take over the series years ago.

'My impression what Spider-Man could be is very different from what Sam [Raimi] did or what Sam wanted to do. I think the reason he directed that movie was because he wanted to do the Marvel comic superhero. I was never interested in the genesis story. I couldn't get past a guy getting bit by a red and blue spider. It was just a problem… It was not something that I felt I could do straight-faced. I wanted to start with Gwen Stacy and the Green Goblin, and I wanted to kill Gwen Stacy.'

'The title sequence of the movie that I was going to do was going to be a ten minute — basically a music video, an opera, which was going to be the one shot that took you through the entire Peter Parker [backstory]. Bit by a radio active spider, the death of Uncle Ben, the loss of Mary Jane, and [then the movie] was going to begin with Peter meeting Gwen Stacy. It was a very different thing, it wasn't the teenager story. It was much more of the guy who's settled into being a freak.'
