This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]477799[/split]
While it seems Orci/Kurtzman are getting some flack for their script, I can't help but think, aren't they also responsible for the things that this movie has apparently got very right?
It's easy to pick out the bad things and say overall "they did a bad job." But while some parts of their writing might not have been home runs, I feel like you have to give them credit for the home runs they [apparently] (I still haven't seen the movie) did produce
Do I wish the script was perfect? Of course. But who knows, maybe with different writers, we wouldn't have gotten the 'perfect Spider-man' that a lot of people are proclaiming inhabits this film, or some of the other positive aspects... Just somethin to think about
Based on what?I think word mouth will be mixed on this by judging from OS reactions. Legs might be hurt by Godzilla and X-Men. I am expecting an Iron Man 2 type run but only a 95m OW. So a 237m finish I have it at. Overseas gross should be around 530m.

Who has said this? Seriously, if you are going to go around and continue to say this I would like to know what post you are referring to.Basically if you like the film and rate it highly you are wrong because the critics say so

Box office numbers so far are showing it is a real possibility at the moment. Some of the bigger territories reporting numbers far below the first film. Depends on the US and China though more then anything.I don't see any possible way this movie makes less than the first.. Even if it ended with a 30% RT score or somethin, I still think it would make more

That my prediction. The film has done anything special OS so far. What are expecting for an OS gross.
I don't think so. Unless it explodes in China.
I was thinking this could gross slightly more OS but I am not sure what the exchange rate is right now compare summer 2012.
I could see this grossing below 530m OS. I just have looked what are Spider Man biggest markets and which ones has it opened to. I know ASM2 has opened in UK, Portugal, France, Czech Republic and Japan.Yeah often sequels increase a lot over seas becuase markets are always expanding. but just basing on how it's opened so far, I don't know if it will get to 530 million.

No matter how poorly this film does critically (if that even ends up being the case, it certainly may not) based on some reviews/twitter reactions/user feedback, I feel like this movie is going to have a very hardcore group of people that love this film. Made up of Spidey fans and GA members alike. Almost like a cult following
That is if the movie keeps getting mixed reviews. I feel like that will make the people that really loved it, love it even more.... and as much as I want a huge, critical and BO smash hit (which again, could very well happen), it would be pretty cool to have a beloved 'cult classic' Spidey flick as well
A bit like Batman Returns. I'd be fine with that. t:
