I'd much prefer Sony stop trying to milk solo films out of characters that work far better as antagonists or allies for Peter Parker. That being said, Booksmart was a brilliant film and I'm glad to see Olivia Wilde getting a high profile studio gig.

Perhaps needless to say, 2020 has been a strange old year so far. I might just have another quick look at my news feed in the hope that nothing odd has happened in the last half hour...

Never mind. 
^ Hopefully they make him look better than last time. At least that would be some positive out of it.

I can't think of anything it could be but a multiverse plot. They must have been seriously impressed by how well received the Spiderverse movie was.

They do seem to be going all-in on the multiverse thing, using it in multiple upcoming projects.

After Spiderverse I know there were rumours about a live action version with Holland, Maguire and Garfield. In fairness, that sounds about right for studio thinking.
I only ever saw ASM2 the once so I'm a bit hazy on how good or bad a movie it really was, although I do remember it could have been called Dubstep: the Movie. Which I guess one could argue might make it a bad movie.

I really didn't like ASM2, mainly for the ending. I don't remember much about it either.

I feel like the biggest mistake was that they made a film where seemingly half the point was to introduce a bunch of other stuff for the future, instead of just concentrating on telling a half-decent Spider-Man story. The finer details of the plot, assuming there were any, sort of escape me now.

A sign of any good movie.

Yeah, I know for me, a film that divides opinion is better than one that everyone agrees is average or forgettable. Thinking about it now, I guess both Andrew Garfield efforts probably fall into the latter category.
With the Sam Raimi series, I find the opposite is true, albeit not always for the right reasons.
