The Amazing Spider-Man The Amazing Spider-Man: Box Office Thread - Part 1

[Arachnid]

Quoting myself, heheh.

Apparently TAS doesn't open in China until August 15, so there is more money to be made. But it appears to me that's the last big market to mine:

The Avengers opens the same day in Japan.

The Avengers opens the same day in Japan.

Looking at Avengers international boxoffice, China (along with the UK) has been by far the biggest market. Hopefully TAS will have similar success.

Asia loves spider-man..

 

[DeathChill]

I know this is blasphemous around here, but I really like Bale's Batman voice. He is the one and only Batman that I can actually believe that his identity isn't discovered in ten seconds.

I 100% agree with this. I don't get what kind of voice people think he should be doing. He makes a voice that no one will be able to place as his. I really think it suits Batman perfectly.

 

[Venom'sDad]

Asia loves spider-man..

Yeah, it's the "Martial Arts Thing".

 

[Spiderdevil]

Wow....really? Better than Bale easily?

Yeah,Bale's Batvoice was ridiculous
And no,it is not a silly nitpick.The way a constumed hero talks is important and it takes the seriousness out of the scene when you feel he is forcing an overdramatic voice

Early reviews? The tweets or actual early reviews? And please, still show me...I do NOT believe you.

I am not gonna search 250 odd reviews

 

[Spiderdevil]

For me, I know TDKR is going to be good. I have no worries about that film AT ALL. This could be the first CB trilogy to be good/great.

Here's hoping the Webb Spidey films follow suit

Why do people underrate Riami so much?

His trilogy was great

 

[Gianakin_]

His duology was great.

 

[spider-neil]

His trilogy was great

SM1 - good
SM2 - great
SM3 - disappointing (and I'm being kind)

 

[Bruce Malone]

Ehh that still averages out to a good overall.

 

[spider-neil]

Averages out to good, so the trilogy is 'good' rather than 'great'.

 

[Bruce Malone]

What superhero trilogy has? TDKR is on the verge of being the 1st now after more than 30 years of superhero films.

Oh, I agree.

 

[Smegger56]

Nope. I find them average (with spidey 3 being just poor IMO)

So nope. I have yet to see a complete GOOD/GREAT CB trilogy.

Yep. Agree.

I dont consider BB anything close to SM1 aswell so even the bat trilogy is at the same level as the Riami trilogy

It has a better conclusion though

But nothing in Nolan's franchise is SM3 bad.

 

[Spiderdevil]

Nope,I still enjoy SM3 more than BB

It only felt disappointing because it had very very high expectations and didnt quite deliver

 

[Jexx]

I'm surprised, they haven't announced a box set containing all of Nolan's Bat films yet.

 

[Spiderdevil]

So RT set on 74%.Decent

BTW TDKR is on 84% and the embargo isnt lifted yet I think,It will SURELY fall from there right Anno_domini ?

 

[Jexx]

Nah, I think that it'll stay in the 80's

 

[AbsractPo3tic]

embargo for it was lifted yesterday my man, just not every critic has had the chance to see it yet. Some are seeing it this week

 

[Anno_Domini]

Yeah,Bale's Batvoice was ridiculous
And no,it is not a silly nitpick.The way a constumed hero talks is important and it takes the seriousness out of the scene when you feel he is forcing an overdramatic voice

His voice has many things to do with him trying to breath as there are no holes in the nose area and the restraints the mask was giving him. He spoke just fine in BB but the new suit gave Bale some trouble. Nitpick over how he could talk

I am not gonna search 250 odd reviews

Because what you were saying is complete ********. No one said Garfield's performance was next to Ledger's Joker.

Why do people underrate Riami so much?

His duology was great

Fixed.

Spider-Man 3 was dreadful and NOT better than Batman Begins.

What Abstract said man. I understand your attempts on TRYING to make me out as a fool though. When TDKR has 67 negative reviews, then I'll worry.

 

[Jexx]

Err.. Anno, responding in pretty much the same way to Spiderdevil (although much more subtle), isn't a very good way to make your point. Well, actually, it can be, but it makes you come off as rude.

TASM and TDKR are both very good movies. I think TDKR will stay in the 80's range, and I think that's where TASM should be. But you know that TASM had more going against it than TDKR does.

 

[Spiderdevil]

His voice has many things to do with him trying to breath as there are no holes in the nose area and the restraints the mask was giving him. He spoke just fine in BB but the new suit gave Bale some trouble. Nitpick over how he could talk

Whatever the reason,they should have looked into the matter.
Its no excuse

Because what you were saying is complete ********. No one said Garfield's performance was next to Ledger's Joker.

I probably hullucinated then.
You are always right

Fixed.

Spider-Man 3 was dreadful and NOT better than Batman Begins.

It was better,the action alone blows BB out of the water
And BB was of no comparison to SM1 and SM2 which is why I say Nolan Bat trilogy is at the same level as Riami's.But it has a better conclusion

What Abstract said man. I understand your attempts on TRYING to make me out as a fool though. When TDKR has 67 negative reviews, then I'll worry.

Well no offence to TDKR but at the same point TASM was on 91% and you were screaming everywhere 'It will SURELY go down'

Just wanted to hear what you say about TDKR ratings now

Will it go down aswell?
