I loved watching 500 days of summer and really wanted film makers like Marc Webb who has a sense of ; style and vision, and the chops to execute.

I hope not. I came in with high expectations when I watched 500 days of summer, too high, yet I was not let down.<\/p>\n

\nThe reboot allows Sony to clean house of all the high price-tag cast and crew from the original trilogy. Webb will be paid roughly $10 million for the first film, with reported substantial bonuses built in \u201cif the picture reaches certain box-office milestones.\u201d Sam Raimi was paid $10 million for the original Spider-Man film, but that was nearly ten years ago. The Evil Dead director\u2019s agreement included a percentage of the film\u2019s grosses (nearly 25 percent when combined with star Tobey Maguire on the last sequel).
