Nov 22-24 #s CF: $158,074,286 actual | Dark Knight triumphant after all

[Empire]

He is to me

Okay.

 

However, in all actuality, he isn't even close to Green Goblin or Doc Oc as far as Spidey's greatest enemies go.

[CloneWars]

Good thing Venom isn't Spider-Man's greatest enemy.

Prior to Norman Osborne being brought back from the dead, Venon was his biggest villan.

[B J]

Remember, the story was always that Raimi didn't even want to use Venom ... then he did possibly due to demands from Sony because of public opinion on Venom ... and it's like he sabotaged his own movie in the worst way by doing so.

 

At least that's what I remember ... it's been a long time.

Ive read some conflicting reports, overall I get the Impression that the film would have sucked even without Venom, Raimi' sandman was crap, Raimi's Harry story line development was crap. Lots of his ideas were mediocre. I must admit EMO Peter was pretty hilarious.

Don't agree but ok

Aside from Spider-Man, the Marvel villains suck. DC got all the good ones. Batman rogue gallery over all Marvel villains.

Dr Doom, Magneto, Sabretooth, Kang The Conqueror, Bullseye, Thanos and Apocalypse are all cool Marvel villains.Unfortunately, Dr Doom, Bullseye and Sabretooth have been royally screwed by Fox. I just hope that Marvel can do some justice to Kang and not do a "Malekeith" on him.

I agree with everything you wrote ... even the hilarity of emo Peter.  I admit, I laughed when I saw that in theaters. Doesn't mean it's not absolute horse shit ... but I laughed.

Well fuck ... that ruins the fun of near 160

 

Seeing 153 is SHOCKING ... to no one.

Sony did the merciful thing by pulling the plug on the miserably suffering Raimi franchise.

They are saying 52M for CF, but have not updated their numbers yet.

ew

[Empire]

Well fuck ... that ruins the fun of near 160

They are saying north of 52m, but have not updated their numbers yet.

[AdamKendall]

Oh ... I see they need to update to 52 ... so yeah, closer to 160

[B J]

oh just read the bottom of the post, whew

[Moviefanatic]

Nikki hasn't updated the numbers. Those numbers are old. Even in the article she mentions it did north of 52 million on Saturday

[Sam]

Dancing king Emo Peter is the best thing in any superhero movies ever!

Agreed, Spider-Man IV would have been a nightmare, character and story were destroyed beyond repair.

[Empire]

Dancing king Emo Peter is the best thing in any superhero movies ever!

[AdamKendall]

I thought Raimi was on fire those first two films ... then he completely shit the bed with Spider-Man 3

 

... and yeah, Spider-Man 4 would have probably done nothing to correct the current course.

It was the only good part of that movie...

[LexJoker]

I am most disappointed that CF will not end the weekend with a higher gross than The Dark World.

It will after Monday though.
