if u look at the bigger picture with the whole sony spiderman debacle, be glad that avi arad is no longer attach to the new spiderman movies. he will only be credited as executive producer
there was a story that avi forced sam raimi to include venom in S3 and kept interferring during production and script re writes.. like how topher grace was casted and the inclusion of gwen stacey.. everything felt off with the movie Sam Raimi: Spider-Man 3 Wasn't My Fault
of course a year later sam raimi admits and takes full responsibility for spiderman 3 failure as a director
avi and sony rejected anything sam raimi wanted on spiderman 4 hence the reboot Confirmed: Spider-Man 4 on Hold, Sam Raimi 'Hates' the Script | FirstShowing.net
apparently sony and avi arad gave mark webb some freedom with amazing spiderman hence the different costume look and feel of the movie.. i actually like the first movie
they nixed all that for the sequel and made a more traditional spiderman movie.. and thats when avi got involve in the press release saying spiderman is king and marvel needs to bow down to it if they want spiderman to cross over. Spider-Man Will Never Cross Over With Other Studios, Says Avi Arad | Badass Digest Avi Arad: Spider-Man Would Have to be the Star of a Marvel Crossover Movie
when andrew garfield was doing interviews about why amazing spiderman 2 failed, from the internet reaction,it sounded like he blaming avi arad and small group of poeple and not the whole studio for interfering with the movie Quote:
It’s interesting. I read a lot of the reactions from people and I had to stop because I could feel I was getting away from how I actually felt about it. For me, I read the script that Alex [Kurtzman] and Bob [Orci] wrote, and I genuinely loved it. There was this thread running through it. I think what happened was, through the pre-production, production, and post-production, when you have something that works as a whole, and then you start removing portions of it—because there was even more of it than was in the final cut, and everything was related. Once you start removing things and saying, “No, that doesn’t work,” then the thread is broken, and it’s hard to go with the flow of the story. Certain people at the studio had problems with certain parts of it, and ultimately the studio is the final say in those movies because they’re the tentpoles, so you have to answer to those people.
