Marc Webb's status as a director may have increased ten-fold after THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, but that doesn't mean that the director will be allowed to helm the sequel, even if he and Sony Pictures both want it to happen...
I know I've said it before, and I'll probably say it again...I don't care what you think about them rebooting Spider-Man so quickly after the third one flopped...this is shaping up to look pretty damn good!
