Spider-Fans, Spider-Fans, come up with better ideas than movie studios can.
The Spider-Man movies - the first of which was released 13 years ago, believe it or not - have been a mixed bag in terms of critical and financial success. Sam Raimi's trilogy - starring Tobey Maguire as the titular hero - started with the well-received Spider-Man, which grossed $822 million worldwide, continued with the equally well-received Spider-Man 2, which grossed $784 million worldwide, and climaxed with the critically panned Spider-Man 3, which grossed $891 million worldwide. The newer Amazing Spider-Man franchise - with Andrew Garfield taking on the lead role as the Webbed Wonder - started with the well-received The Amazing Spider-Man, which grossed $758 million worldwide and continued with the latest offering, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which massively underwhelmed critics and grossed $709 million worldwide.
