Harry sudden forcing MJ into a relationship was odd and the John Travolta inspired strut was unitentional comedy. It was catering to creative team and fan demands and it resulted into Spider-Man 3. Amazing Spider-Man 2 did nearly the same thing and was not nearly as interesting. I would argue the speed up Green Goblin/Harry bit that lead to Gwen's inevitable fate was much less cohesive than Venom/Eddie and Harry's fate and not nearly as interesting.
Yeah, but didn't Raimi want to do Vulture and Black Cat in the fourth movie, not Venom?
