Moviedweeb Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 It is pretty amazing that Ted's first monday is higher than TASM's. Yes, I am aware that there are several differences especially the fact that TASM was release on Tue and not Friday but still!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junkshop36 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Looks like a fairly normal drop to me. There are 3 or 4 other movies in the top 12 that dropped between 57-60% range; and just about everything else was 54/55%. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gideon Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 The spider man franchise is not doomed , but this form of it might actually be . Sony managed to fuck up the only good thing they had left (not just in their movie department) . I bet that a Raimi Spider man 4 , with free reigns to Raimi unlike 3, would have done much better than this debacle of a reboot . So true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

junkshop36 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Tobey wasn't the problem. The problem was Sony, the crappy villains and that it seemed like someone was crying ever damn 5 minutes. I thought I was watching a soap opera instead of a comic book movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Craig Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I don't like an old Spider-Man.Maguire's Spidey would still only have been 22-24, that's OLD?! :lol:You're the reason Quesada exists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at what Nolan's doing with Batman. I want a definitive beginning, middle, and end to Peter's life story (doesn't mean he has to die or anything). Frankly I think it'd be cool to see a Spider-man movie with Peter Parker in his 30s, married, working as a science teacher/professor, and juggling family life with his life as Spider-man.

tonytr87 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) Batman's character is way different than Spider-Man.Spider-man grew up in the comics, he can grow up in the movies too. To keep Spider-man a teenager forever is to make the character stagnant. It's beyond stupid as far as good filmmaking is concerned.

ZattMurdock Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) Batman's character is way different than Spider-Man.Exactly. Spider-Man isn't supposed to get older than its early thirties. I'd LOVE to see a sixtology based on Webb's Amazing Spider-Man, but if they go with the right pace. The way to go IMO is making The Amazing Spider-Man 2-3 together, between 2014 and 2015. Then getting the 4th by 2017, 5th by 2019 and divide the 6th film between 2022 and 2023. Andrew would be 37-39 years old for the recording of the last chapters. It could be played as a Spider-Man approaching 35 years old fighting the Sinister Six at that point.

I used to own a skate and while I sucked at it, I never was seen as anything but a nerd, with my "odd" hobby of reading comic books. Just because Peter Parker wasn't finally a stereotype in cinema, it doesn't mean that it wasn't a nice touch. We are talking about one of the most athletic and show off of the superheroes here. Spidey's webslinging could easily be seen as a parallel to skateboard tricks in a larger than life scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
