Parker Gets Darker

"...the fans want to see 'Venom'," said "Spider-Man 3" director Sam Raimi.

"I come from a different generation. I read the comic books in the '70s, where it was 'Green Goblin', 'Sandman', 'Electro', 'Mysterio', the 'Vulture'. It was not until the late '80's that Venom came about. But (producer) Avi said, 'I'm telling you, they're waiting for him. Don't be selfish. Spider-Man is everyone's myth, not just yours.' "

"...I love Spider-Man. And I love working with Kirsten, Tobey, James...But I have to make sure that when I'm done with this picture I'm really still fascinated with the character. At this moment I'm fascinated with him...And I absolutely would not have anything to do with the picture unless I was hungry to tell the story."
