Spider-Man 3 Breaks Opening Day Record

Spider-Man 3 cast the widest web ever-over 10,000 screens at 4,252 theaters-and nabbed the all-time biggest gross for a single day: an estimated $59 million on Friday...

By shattering the opening day record, Spider-Man 3 followed the path of the first two movies in the franchise as Spider-Man's $39.4 million and Spider-Man 2's $40.4 million set new benchmarks.

Additionally, Spider-Man 3 raked in $45 million overseas on Friday. Combined with domestic's $59 million, the sequel pulled in $104 million worldwide, the highest-grossing day ever for a single picture...

I thought it was an amazing movie.

Why did everyone hate it?

Keyser6957d ago

I thought it was a good movie also but it could have been better. There was too much going on. It actually would have been better if it were Spiderman 3 then Spiderman 4. That would have allowed them to get more in depth with each story.
You can't always make a great movie with one series. The Spider Man Trilogy is now equivalent to the Godfather Trilogy. The first was good, the second was better, and the third was not bad just not as good as the first two.
I still believe it was entertaining and worth the price of admission. I will be getting the bluray when it comes out.

whoever approved this FOR A GAMING AND TECH SITE, should have their contributor status revoked.

WASTE OF SPACE.

Inasid6958d ago

I agree, it's very borderline that so much news come out about Blu-ray vs HD-dvd but both consoles use them. As far as the box office releases of the movie industry getting approved, well I guess it's time we start warming up our reviews of films if this keeps up. Note if you are interested in movies, www.imdb.com is a great site for all movie information not www.n4g.com

I don't agree with that. I WISH I could agree with that. But buying habits and customer opinions prove otherwise

We've seen developers in the AAA space try new things and ideas. More often than not, the customers aren't willing to give things a chance, or not enough people buy into the project for it to grow.

Creativity works better in the indie space because the budgets, pressures, and expectations aren't the same.

Scissorman36d ago

it's a nice idea and it worked during the PS2/PS3-era when AAA didn't cost hundreds of millions of dollars. smaller budgets and shorter development time left room for more creativity and more risk. a game didn't need to sell 4 million+ copies to break even. things are different now.

This is the guy who bragged about crunching his staff and having them work through the night. Crunch culture has lost more talent and done more damage to the industry than any other factor. Screw him.
