This could be either really good or really bad. Sony fans will probably be happy since many blame her for the studio’s poor critical returns and low blockbuster revenue. However, she was really the Sony-based crux behind the Spider-Man deal, and whoever fills in her place might have different plans for the franchise. Who knows? Maybe her replacement won't care about Spider-Man and let Marvel take him back? It's definitely not gonna happen, but a man can dream.

I wonder if her going to Universal could help grease the wheels on a Hulk sequel, since according to Mark Ruffalo, Universal won't play ball with Marvel.
