The thing is, it doesn't matters if there's plenty of plot. Spider-Man 3 failed because Sam Raimi didn't knew how to handle so many things going on in the film, but I'm sure Marc Webb, hopefully returning for the sequel, would know how to make things work. He did an amazing job on The Amazing Spider-Man, and I'm sure that if he returns, he can do even better. You've got to know how to handle the plot, and just being a good director. Sam Raimi just didn't knew how to do that.
