John Marston Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Nah most of that hatred was deserved cause it sucked, and there was a lot of MOS hatred once it actually opened. And if you look at overall box office, MOS had more competition, June was the biggest ever by more than 150m, and July 2013 was the second biggest ever (above July 2012)You can't say ASM hatred wa deserved when reviews and scores are mostly positive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOS was hit even worse though since it had two big movies open right on its second weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty irritating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heat Vision Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 So 670 million worldwide seems like the possible final number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messipotamia Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Amazing spidy was unfairly treated due to the whole "way too soon" factor, but personally I think ASM was superior to both MOS and BB as an origin film. The only prob I have with the film is the lizard otherwise it could've been one of the best superhero movies ever (it certainly is the best spidy movie thus far IMO). As for competition, I have to give to MOS with MU performing to its high expected standards and WWZ way over performing, that is not to say that ASM did have tons of competition.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the Lizard is lame. Thankfully TASM2 will have a much better villain this time : Electro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messipotamia Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 The lizard as a character isn't lame just the way they handled hiim in the film left much to be desired. To be honest I always thought spidy's rogues gallery is quite lame in general (I know I know, Im alone on this) with the exception of doc oc and venom ofcourse. Hope they do a good electro (and thank god they didn't go with his original costume!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donar Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 670 WW is pretty disappointing. But it deserves. Agreed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messipotamia Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 660 or 670 is quite fine, infact it's quite excellent for some1 like me who was expecting 500mill WW but I understand it's disappointing for some who wanted the film to hit the 700 landmark or people like robinov who expected the movie to do a billion + (quite idiotic to be honest). Ultimately the film has done good money, sure it could've done more (one can say that about any movie) but the final tally is impressive non the less.

Marlon Brando Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 So 670 million worldwide seems like the possible final number? Yeah, maybe 671 or 672 Only japan to count in, nothing from other territories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 With a better release date I would say 300m domestic and 700m worldwide could have happened Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goffe Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 You can't say ASM hatred wa deserved when reviews and scores are mostly positive it's not like MOS got terrible scores either.MOS 6.2 RT 7.6 IMDBTASM 6.7 RT 7.1 IMDBIn fact I would say that they have equal scores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people loved the film and consider it one of the best superhero films and other people hated it.

peludo Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) I think MOS word of mouth is very divided. Some people loved the film and consider it one of the best superhero films and other people hated it. There really is no clear consensus The biggest complain is about the excess of action and destruction... Sincerely, I thought I would never hear any complaint for that factor about any movie. This makes me to remember what some people said when we saw the two first trailers. They said the movie had lack of action...

There really is no clear consensus same with TASM, the only difference is that far more poeple loved MOS than TASM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexJoker Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 same with TASM, the only difference is that far more poeple loved MOS than TASM Thats because most of the current generation compare MOS to SR, but TASM was compared to Raimi's Spider-man.

Ultimately the film has done good money, sure it could've done more (one can say that about any movie) but the final tally is impressive non the less. Remember a lot of superhero franchise barely made $400M to $500M WW, XMEN, F4, HULK. Raimi's SPIDEY is a little too mass audience-friendly for me to like, done in too broad a stroke. TASM is no different. The only thing I like abt that movie is Emma Stone's stockings. MoS did very good to excellent I say. Also of note: this Superman is a little darker than the previous incarnations. I saw kids crying in one screening and their parents have to take them out of the theater.
