I think a re-introduction to Venom would be a good idea, but I don't think the goblin nor the sinister six should be part of the MCU. For me, a sequel, as I explained to Gary, would definitely have Mysterio or Kraven (Maybe both) with Norman taking much bigger steps towards becoming Green Goblin, but not quite getting there yet. Liz Allen and Peter should probably start dating and whatnot, while they are maybe finishing High School and starting college. That could also be when Peter starts working at the Daily Bugle and meets J. Jonah Jameson.

By the third film the Green Goblin finally emerges and fights Spider-Man, he could do a similar story arc with Liz that happened with Gwen. That could also introduce Black Cat into the fold as Spidey's paramour, and maybe the Symbiote too. So all of Spider-Man emotions are heightened, which could justify his getting with a "bad girl" and like Black Cat, and maybe committing terrible things to get revenge on Green Goblin. By the end of the movie, despite his hatred for the Goblin after all he's done and the Symbiote's influence, he finds out that Norman Osborn, the man he respected so much and vice versa was the Goblin, it snaps him out of that hatred and he realizes that Norman just needs mental help more than anything. He takes off the suit and it falls on no one other than Eddie Brock. With Green Goblin now in a hospital, where he can possibly return for future sequels or other MCU productions but is "defeated" for the foreseeable future.

Than the fourth movie could be fighting Venom. Where Venom can be the ultimate relatable villain/anti-hero of the movie, who even though he does bad things to our favorite web-head we kind of get why he's so angry and realize he doesn't have a completely black heart or evil soul. In the meanwhile, J. Jonah Jameson with the rise of Venom realizes he needs to take menaces on the streets into his own hands and creates Scorpion, who from the experiments becomes a villain who can be the "true" antagonist of the film.

But those are just some thoughts I have, I agree that Sinister Six isn't really necessary. xD
