Honestly speaking, I'm spidered out. Sony has managed to overload me on Spider-Man and Spider-Man reboots, and I frankly don't find him all that interesting a character any more, in movies or comics.
(ObDisc: I haven't really read much Spider-Man since JMS' run several years back, except for the Superior Spider-Man stuff, because that was different.)
I suppose I wouldn't mind seeing Marvel get the rights back and do something cinematic with the character, as long as it doesn't push any of the other planned films off the board. But, really, I am terribly, terribly unexcited about the prospect one way or another.

Marvel getting creative control of Spider-man movies is great and all, but do we really need another Spider-man reboot? I rather like Andrew Garfield for the role.

When watching the first Spider Man movie with Tobey Maguire, I realized I didn't really like watching movies about teenaged angst, no matter how cool the sfx were. I haven't seen any of the Spider Man movie that were released after that.
In fairness, 1 and 2 (with Maguire) were pretty good. 3 was missable and I haven't even bothered with the new ones. I can wait another decade for new Spider Man.
+Patrick Bick That was pretty much my experience. Garfield may have been great, but, like +David Newman, I find the basic story tired.
