"Sam Raimi has said that he &amp;quot;loved&amp;quot; The Amazing Spider-Man. The director of the previous Spider-Man trilogy revealed that he has finally watched Marc Webb&amp;#039;s movie reboot.   &amp;quot;It was very hard for me to see the new Spider-Man movie, I felt so attached to it,&amp;quot; he told Hey U Guys. &amp;quot;I couldn&amp;#039;t see Spider-Man with another director - it&amp;#039;s like my love, and I didn&amp;#039;t want to walk in on my love with someone else. It was just like that. &amp;quot;Then I got over myself last week and said, &amp;#039;Just see the damn thing&amp;#039;. And I did, and I loved it. &amp;quot;I actually felt free. I thought, &amp;#039;Why am I carrying around this baggage?&amp;#039; Of course the next Spider-Man story should be told, and [Marc Webb] did a wonderful job telling that. I loved the movie, and I&amp;#039;m looking forward like a fan to the next instalment. &amp;quot;I love the comic book, and now I don&amp;#039;t feel bound, and I&amp;#039;m really glad somebody&amp;#039;s remaking it again.&amp;quot;  Raimi had previously said that he had not &amp;quot;had the guts&amp;quot; to watch the film. The Oz the Great and Powerful director has discussed his reasons for leaving 20th Century Fox&amp;#039;s franchise. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 recently began shooting.
