But the Sam Raimi movies were Sony movies too =P

So it's the director's fault really. Just have to choose it better.

I thought Columbia Pictures did the Raimi trilogy?  Then Columbia's rights expired after Spiderman 3 and Sony got the rights, then Sony and Raimi got into a disagreement over the future of the series and Spiderman 4 got cancelled while it was still in pre-production.

Probably the only thing that'll make me watch these new Sony Spiderman movies is if they reboot a 2nd time with a new director and new cast, some of the casting in the reboot was just awful. Also, bring back MJ as Peter's main love interest, I always liked her more than Gwen.

Sony Pictures is Columbia Pictures. 

To your second point this is a full reboot. New cast, new creative team, new everything.
