I'd argue that the Amazing Spider-Man wasn't a remake at all — it certainly wasn't a remake of Raimi's film. It was a new film based on the same source material (50+ years of Spidey comics). It's like saying Raimi's movie was a cash grab remake of the 60s TV show.

Shakespeare's plays were remakes. And if they do cancel a massive blockbuster based on a previous property, they're not going to replace it…
