Yeah and its actually a proven fact now. 🙁

He is only going to use classic characters as long as he is making these films.

Green Goblin, Doc Ock, and Connors/Lizard

Its a pattern already. 😉

Vemon is the coolest, but if they're going to make up to Five spidey movies, Vemon can wait.

Hopefully it will be worth the wait.

Just picturing the symbiote sneeking around on screen brings out the inner fan boy in me. 😄

Raimi on Spider-Man 3 & More Sequels
Source: Costco Connection
December 14, 2004

"Spider-Man" franchise director Sam Raimi talked to the Costco Connection, the magazine for the store, about Spider-Man 3 and a possible fourth film. Here's clips from the interview:

CC: We hear that you and your brother have been working on the story for Spider-Man 3. The sense you get toward the end of Spider-Man 2 is that Peter and Harry Osborn will face off in the third. Is that a fair assumption?
SR: (laughing) I can't tell you that!

CC: I knew you'd say that. Well, what can you tell us?
SR: I can't tell you anything. I've been sworn to secrecy. All I can tell you is that we're going to see the next progression in the growth of Peter Parker as a human being. He's really just a boy, on his way to becoming a responsible young man. He still has a lifetime of lessons in front of him.

CC: Will you be hanging up your mask after Spider-Man 3, or will you keep making more of these films?
SR: I never know if they're going to want me for another one. But if the studio did make a part four, and if they'd ask me, I'd be thrilled to do it.

Actually, Venom would be the perfect bad guy to end the Quadrilogy.

He could at least set up Eddie Brock's downfall in 3, then he could go either way with Venom in 4.

If there is to be a 4 - Venom should be the villain to end it all I think.

Green Goblin started it, he was Spidey's Arch Nemesis. Venom should end it, as he is Spidey's alter ego.

This guys saying what i'm thinking!

I think Sam Raimi has the drive and passion. I know he is a stickler for the classic villians, but would love to see him deviate for SM4 and go with Venom. Maybe fans could sway him to go with the newer villian in SM4 if he takes the director's chair.

I think Sony pushed back its goal of 6 movies due to revalations of not having continuous actors.

I agree 😎

Yeah i heard he is going to make like 6 movies.

Actually there has been rumors of 6-7 films being planned in the past, but not of Sam being involved with that many films. I doubt Sam is going to and or willing to direct 6 Spider-Man films. Although I do think a 4th is a definite possibility depending on how he feels after the 3rd.

Yeah if the do make 6 films they could do every member of the sinister six. 🙂

Maybe, but most likely it will only be a few members of the group that will end up being featured.

Well it would be cool to have 6 movies with 6 different villains. 🙂

Well if Green Goblin doesn't end up being featured in Spidey 3 or 4 then maybe it can still happen.

I think its the Lizard in part 3 and who knows for part 4? It could still happen.

People are pretty in favor of Venom in Spidey 4, but it could be an unexpected character that lands the spot of the villain.

I like venom but I hope they do the story right. Eddie brock should be in part 3 if they want venom in part 4.

I agree exactly,

If they do end up making several movies they could give venom plenty of back story. He could be a villain in one movie and maybe a hero in the next one.

Do you mean his own film after a main role in a Spidey film?
