baumer Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Well I appreciate you're not trying to make it look like this film is going to some huge box office disaster that will cause Sony to abandon the rights or something. Like many users are doingThis, like Pirates 4, will likely be the highest grossing film of the series WW. I don't see how it is anything but a success for Sony. Plus, they already have Garfield lined up for the next two films at 1 mill and 1.5 mill. That's insane. This is a gigantic success...whether I like it or not.

I'd be a happy camper losing the bet to give you both The Avengers and TASM blu rays when the time comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ask because assuming another ~$100m domestically, that's a big sum yet to take in OS. Will it really top $900m WW? I have doubts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still believe the two additional films Garfield is obligated to do will happen, as this film will turn a profit. But still, the OS market today plus 3D gives TASM a massive advantage over the first three Spidey films, and it will probably be in the same overall range when the final gross is calculated. That's not impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZattMurdock Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 As Shawn's article cleverly stated, even if it doesn't make as much money as the previous films WW, it's destined to become the most successful reboot at the box office so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I agree.However, when one considers that BB set up TDK and TDKR to be huge... well, I have to go with BB as the most successful reboot. BB reinvigorated the Batman franchise in a way that TASM has no hope of doing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not impressive.well the highest grossing Spider-Man film is 890m, so this movie had to make like 100m more to be successful? Come on. this was definitely going to get an admissions drop from Spider-Man 3 no matter what. The film is still on track for 800m+ that makes it successful no matter what. And now the origin stuff is out of the way, they can go all out for the sequel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Amazing Spider-Man is getting excellent WOM and deservedly so. The future looks bright for this new take on the mythos, regardless how you personally feel about it.

Walt Disney Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 If only Baumer had put <250 mil club instead of 200 mil.To Baumer's credit, he did bet AA that it would be under $260M, so he is still in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) POTC 4 isn`t the highest grossing movie of the series WW. DMC is. OST is highest grossing OS but DMC is both dom and WW. WW difference is some $20 mio in DMC favor unadjusted of course. Edited July 11, 2012 by fishnets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
