    Why America? Why you did this to me? We received The Godfather of our generation, one of the greatest trilogies of all time, and you guys choose to ignore it, karma is a bitch, you guys will never receive any quality franchise anymore.

     Be happy you got a trilogy.

    Audiences during the 2000's were getting ripped off.

     

    Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes.

     

    The Star Wars prequels.

     

    Affleck's Daredevil. 

     

    Raimi's Spider-man :ph34r:

     

    Everything is a hundred times better now. :sparta:

     

    Revenge of the Sith is underrated and better than Force Awakens. Daredevil is also underrated especially the director's cut. Spider Man 1 is top 20 best superhero movie and Spider Man 2 is top 10 at the very least.

    Spidey's back, honestly I'm fine with these numbers because this is basically the 2nd reboot.  They soft rebooted the character in "Civil War".   "TASM 2" did about 91 OW back in 14' so the MarvelIron Man/Downey Jr boost worked out if it comes in 115+.  That would be roughly a 25 Million increase over 4 years.   So the good news is Spidey Man "Homecoming" is posed to stop the trend of every Spiderman movie dropping domestically from it's predecessor:

     

    1 Spider-Man Sony $403,706,375 3,876 $114,844,116 3,615 5/3/02
    2 Spider-Man 2 Sony $373,585,825 4,166 $88,156,227 4,152 6/30/04
    3 Spider-Man 3 Sony $336,530,303 4,324 $151,116,516 4,252 5/4/07
    4 The Amazing Spider-Man Sony $262,030,663 4,318 $62,004,688 4,318 7/3/12
    5 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Sony $202,853,933 4,324 $91,608,337 4,324 5/2/14
    6 Spider-Man: Homecoming Sony $50,500,000 4,348 n/a 4,348

    The goal should definitely be to outgross "TASM1" adjusted which would be 297.  So I'm with everyone that 300 is a nice benchmark for a 3rd reboot.   The irony of it all is that the original did 114 Million and broke the OW record 15 years ago.   So "SMH" is the first time the franchise broke a 100 Million OW since 2002.  I also think overseas should also help out with SMH.   "Transformers" and "Pirates" fall from grace has been pretty interesting this summer.  Overseas will save them but those domestic numbers are definitely is downward trend.   "DM3" is doing pretty good, the Minions are just becoming so big in Pop Culture for kids.  

     

    "Wonder Woman" remains the comic book film to beat for not just the summer but the Year.  "Baby Driver" felt like a cult like film when I saw the trailer, it's doing amazing honestly.  "Cars 3" is just honestly "There", i mean I guess their whole thing is to keep the Cars toys and games merchandising machine going so I guess they succeeded but it wasn't a great Trilogy like "Toy Story".  Lastly I got love for Tom but the "Mummy" reboot just didn't connect domestically. It's not even going to get "Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" numbers.   Can't wait to see what Apes does next week. 

     

    Lol Pirates is already a success while Transformers won't be.
