Obviously, it should have been two movies, one with the Sandman and Green Goblin Jr. (and possibly introducing Eddie Brock and Gwen Stacy), and one with Venom and whatever other Spider-Man villain hasn't been used yet. That way they could have had more time for JJJ, who is the real reason anyone watches these movies.

It's fairly well documeted that Sam Raimi doesn't like the Venom character and never wanted to pu him in any of the films.
As for future villians, They have certainly cameoed Doc Conners aka "The Lizard" in the last 2 movies so I see him as the next logical bad guy.
Although there is a rumour going about of Morlan being the next villain with probaby a whol new cast and director.
