Jilted Spider-Director Sam Raimi Heading To World Of Warcraft Next? By Brendon Connelly/Jan. 12, 2010 8:41 am EST I’m not too enthusiastic about a Spider-Man reboot, but that’s probably not fair. Maybe somebody else can come along and make a film as good as, if not even better than, Spider-Man 2. Maybe.
