Well, I'd like to see a story based on the original Lee/Ditko and Lee/Romita comics, not attached to the MCU and set in the 1960's. And written by me. But I won't get that, so I'm just hoping for a decent film with a likable Peter Parker who makes jokes and has the right personality. I'd like to see villains they haven't used before. Please, don't use Green Goblin again anytime soon. Vulture would be cool or Chameleon or a slightly reimagined Kraven. Or some combination of villains, presuming the combination works and isn't just shoving villains into a story that had no place for them to sell more toys and set up future movies.

And while ridiculous, the bright side of course is that it's entering better hands, and hopefully be better received.

i think garfield is a good actor and he did some good things in his 2 films, but he did just sit right with me. one of the things was he came across, at least to me, as an A hole when he was trying to be funny. when i read spidey and he is making all those jokes he " sounds" gofy and funny. i just didnt get that from garfield i want the new kid to have better comic timing. spidey should be fun despite all the darkness and violence around him. Agreed. I think Toby Maguire got it almost right, although he could have done with more comedy.

Toby Maguire did Peter Parker better than he did Spider-Man, and Andrew Garfield did Spider-Man better than he did Peter Parker. The love interest was done better in The Amazing Spider-Man, when Gwen is far more pro-active in resolving the plot (risking her life to make the antidote) than Mary Jane is. MJ wound up getting kidnapped and put in danger for the final battle of each of the three films, with Spidey having to fight off the bad guy(s) while getting her to safety.
Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone had great chemistry, it was the efforts to set up the Sinister Six that sunk Amazing Spider-Man 2. The shot with the Vulture wings and Doc Ock arms shouldn't have been in the trailer, they didn't add anything to the narrative. Rhino shouldn't have been in the marketing to the extent that he was. He gets less than a minute of screen time and is relegated to a fight that isn't even seen to be concluded because the credits rolled. Surely Sony should have learned their lesson about pushing things into the movie from the Venom incident in Spider-Man 3 (Sony bosses insisted Sam Raimi include him in the film, and no doubt insisted on the development of the Sinister Six shared universe).
I'd like future Spider-Man movies to be in the now, not building up to the next movie(s) at the expense of that one. It has to stand up in isolation if need be.

And if they have to introduce the Sinister Six, at least do it over a few movies rather than just one.
