Marc Webb, the director of (500) Days of Summer, is directing the freshly rebooted Spider-Man movie, which will not be Spider-Man 4. The press release alludes to the fact that this movie will focus more on a still-in-high-school's Peter Parker's personal drama. The fans, as always, are outraged:

A “Spider-Man” movie with 60% less Spider-Man? Who wants to watch a non-action comic book action movie? Is Jeff Zucker running Sony, too?

This is just mind boggling. Why would they announce that they want to get into the “human” aspects of a high schooler as a superhero? Even if they’re doing it, I don’t think I’d announce it. Just sounds like your saying, “With this new film, we’ll save TONS in the effects and director salary.”

Lame — Polish this turd any way you want — Spidy meets Twilight ain’t gonna fly.
