Anyone afraid POTC 2 might break any Spidey Records?

It looks like POTC might catch Spiderman... I thought SM3 was a lock to win next year... POTC 3 clearly has the edge
 
Not CLEARLY. Let's see some previews, first.
 
I doubt POTC3 will be so good like POTC2 was.

POTC2 was the only summer blockbuster in July (except SR, which couldn't make $60m opening), that is the case.

But Spider-man 1 had SW-II as very serious competitor and it won this battle.

So I think POTC3 won't make more than $350m this time.

About Spidey 3 vs. Shrek 3, I think there will be the same situation, which happened with Spidey 1 and SW-II.
 
POTC is now 9 million behing Spider-Man's domestic total of 403 million. It has passed Spider-Mans WW total of 821.7 million. It will be only the 4th movie alltime to break the 400 million domestic figure in it's initial release. Spider-Man, Phantom Menance, Shrek 2, and Titanic are other 4.
 
LOL. Why I thought POTC 2 was Passion Of The Christ 2?? Put a notch for me on the slow board.

Spidey aint skurrred.

I liked POTC2 ,and i will see 3 at some point. But i'm gonna be there for Spiderman 3 Opening night, or Midnioght they day before if they do that. Nothing will stop me from being there. Pirates def takes a backseat to Spidey.

Well the world can kiss our webbed spandexed arses!
 
Actually I though POTC1 was better movie than Spidey 1.

But POTC2 wasn't so great like Spidey 2.

I will rate both trilogies after I see Spidey 3 and POTC3.

But now I am much more hyped about Spidey 3 than POTC3.
 
the only "hype" Potc 3 has is the cliff hanger in 2. Spidey 3 definitly has alot more buzz around it, with venom and all. There are teasers and posters and all that good stuff, where as i haven't seen anything related to Pirates 3.
 
POTC broke all records that Spiderman established.

It's outgrossed spidey's opening weekend with a whopping 20 million.
It's outgrossed spidey domestic and worldwide total. Heck no spiderman movies has ever come close to the 900 million mark and POTC 2 is about to hit 1 billion soon.

POTC 2 hold the record for
fastest to hit 100 mil
fastest to hit 200 mil
fastest to hit 300 mil

POTC 3 will give SPiderman 3 some very tough competition. Spidey 3 has the edge that it's got 2 weeks before shrek arrives. I could see spidey 3 outgrossing the second movie but outgrossing the first is going be hard.

No way is it going to beat spidey three
same here, pirates of the carribean cant compare to spiderman1, spiderman2, and spiderman3. spiderman3 will be the best.
 
Spider-Man 3 will PWN next year's Box Office.

I will miss class that day. And work, too.
 
I don't want to soud negative but POTC2 is near the 1Billion$ mark. I think there is no way spidy3 is gonna beat that.
I think this movie will be just for the fans and not for the average movie goers (Allot of people don't even know what the symbiote is)
And i have a feeling this one is gonna make less money than the 2nd. But for us, fans, it will be the best movie ever. (we can only hope)

*sigh*

And that's exactly why people will turn out in droves to see this movie:

"Spidey...in a black suit?! What's going on here?! I've got to see this!"
