Spider-Man 4: Directorial Showdown!
by Ian Cooper
After spending the past eight years developing his own unique ass-groove in the director’s chair of the Spider-Man series, Sam Raimi has decided to give another ass a shot:
Raimi directed the first three movies and wrote 2007’s Spider-Man 3—but the filmmaker is stepping back to let someone else create their own vision for the web-slinging adventure.
Since Raimi didn’t mention any potential candidates, I decided to gaze into my crystal ball of smartass conjecture and envision how the next Spider-Man adventure might look under the helm of seven fine directors, and compile that information in a handy chart, suitable for framing. (You’re welcome, Sam.)

Classic Woody Allen. Like the Wes Anderson (what the hell are his movies about?) one as well.

Ingrid, Ingmar–those crazy Swedes and their confusingly similar names. She might be a better choice for Spidey 4, however, seeing as she was a hottie and Woody Guthrie wrote a song about her.
