re: Why Do People Give Raimi a Pass on Spiderman 3 Because of Studio Interference?

Where does this theory of him intentionally tanking the movie come from?

I was wondering the same thing...

I came up with it, but its well known that Raimi didn't want to do half that shite the studios made him do.

So you're just a Raimi apologist like the ones this thread is kinda bashing...

It is very possbile that Raimi just made a crap movie. Sure, maybe the studio wanted him to throw in an extra villain or two and that made the plot convoluted and confusing, but it sounds like you're making excuses for him just making a bad movie (not saying that's what you're doing..but it seems like it).

Also, you say he had made "box office gold on the first two, but the third made more BO money that either of them. And you can rest assured that Raimi was in it for the money just like the studio was, even if his vision of the third film wasn't in line with theirs.
