i think possibly sandman might be just outside of the realism Webb has set for this film
i mean webb has given us the lizard which is a man transforming because of gene splicing and if you can do that im sure you can get away with green goblin and anything thats big in technology thanks to oscorp which could give us Vulture and rhino, doc ock, shocker and could possibly get away with mysterio
but a man who can turn to sand... hmm... not sure
The only thing Webb's talked about when it comes to realism is the characters. That is, the way they talk, react to things, behave etc. Not powers and stuff like that. Spidey live in a world full of unrealistic superpowers, that's part of his mythos. To only go by realism would be to restrict and limit it all unnecessarily. It works for Batman in a trilogy since Batman himself has no superpowers. But in a film series of Spider-Man, especially if it reaches out for more than 3 films, you can't ignore the more fantastic elements of his world.
They already begun that with Lizard in ASM. If you ask me, ASM felt much more fantasy-driven than Raimi's films. The difference is that the characters themselves felt like real world character. It's like they took real life characters and put into a fantasy world. Like Stan Lee did.
