Would you rather see Tim Burton make a new Batman movie or Sam Raimi make a new Spider-Man movie?
Burton Batman
Raimi Spider-Man
I like Raimi as a director more and frankly seeing the first draught of the 89 script makes me like Burton even less. Havent ever really loved 89 as much as others to begin with, sonce I didnt grow up with it.

Raimi cause at least he loves spider-man and would try to make a character driven story about peter , whereas burton doesnt care for batman and another batman film by him would be all visuals and not a character driven story about batman.

Burton Batman, while still a notable and fondly remembered version, is (imo) seeming less influential and culturally relevant the more years that have passed since its release. Conversely, Sam Raimi's Spider-Man seems way more influential again, and is, for me, the more definitive take of the two!

Easy! Burton has yet to make a good Batman movie, Raimi made two great films with Spider-Man.

While I enjoyed both Sam just had more films, Norton only had that one Batman film with Michael Keaton

The Raimi Spider-man films feel like an overarching story without a satisfying ending. I just have more nostalgia for Raimi Spider-man. Literally nothing would make me happier than hearing that elfman spider-man score over the opening credits of a new Raimi Spider-man movie one more time.

It would be a harder choice if it was the Keaton universe without Burton, even than I might have to go with Spider Man, Raimi is the easy choice with Burton the way he is now.

Burton's best days are behind him and even during those he wasn't perfect. Raimi still seems to "got it", even if I haven't loved all of his more recent work either. Plus, his Spider-Man movies ended on a worse note than Burton's Batmans, so there's a bigger need for redemption.

Now I assume that both Tim Burton and Sam Raimi are very different people than when they left their projects, but since there's been less time in between 2007 and now than there is 1992 and now, I assume that Raimi has retained more of his sensibilities that made his version work.
