Sony Pictures No. 1 in Marketshare for 2012
^Sony came in at No. 1 in 2012 and outgrossed all the other major studios (WB, Fox, Universal, Disney). It was also the studio's biggest year of all time.
So much for Sony Pictures going out of business at the end of 2012, like so many predicted.
Yeah these numbers are what I had in mind too.Asm1 $$$

That probably has a lot to do with Skyfall.
Skyfall, The Amazing Spider-Man, and MIB3.That probably has a lot to do with Skyfall.
But Avengers made way more than Skyfall so why didn't Disney make the most this year?
I guess The Avengers was the only huge film for Paramount last year.
Yeah that's my point. It takes more than a single movie like Skyfall to make a studio number one.
If the film doesn't make a billon then the reboot is a failure imo.
I am somewhat concerned for the future of the series, but I have my faith. We had only one movie in this franchise so far, so at least wait until the second movie comes out to really judge it.I think it will fall short considering the lukewarm reception. I see nothing inspirational happening for Spider-Man on film over the next decade. I'll look elsewhere for that.

What? Just because the movie doesn't make a billion doesn't mean its a failure. If it makes less than the TASM, then that would make the reboot a failure IMO.
You don't think that Sony had a billion in mind when they decided to reboot? Of course they did. They saw how close SM3 was and figured this new direction was the ticket to getting there, especially after TDK success. They even stated how they wanted to make history again at the box office with Webb and co. The sequel falling short of a billion is a big fail, even if the film is miraculously more then typical summer fare.
At this point it looks unlikely this series will even equal Raimi's at the box office (and certainly not critically or with the GA). Right now Sony is like Sisyphus pushing the boulder up the hill.
It has an 81 on RT with the GA. That's higher than SM1 and SM3 and even with SM2. Granted there aren't as many votes.
I think DOFP has a good chance at being the first X-Men film to crack a billion worldwide.
I am really curious to see how the solo MCU films' box office success will be affected by the Avengers. I think they will make more than the phase one films, though I still doubt that IM3 will make around $900 million. IM2 earned around $600 million though that was due to the success of the previous film.
