It is 140 million domestic plus 200 million oversees

So 140 million in 5 days,so it is possible to more than double that earning in the next 13 days till TDKR,Right?

So maybe 300Million domestic plus 500 million oversees

800million plus on the cards..

500-600 tops; I can't see $800 million.

It's actually "Look at little Goblin Jr.. You gonna cry?"

And it's a great line- delivered perfectly.

Agreed; it's a great line for a cheese filled movie.

and this one too

That's my last one.

 

[Ajendo]

One of the worst lines of the first trilogy. I'm having horrible flashbacks.

What made that line even worse was the irony of the fact that Peter had some seriously ridiculous crying scenes in that movie. MJ dumping Peter at the park and him crying his eyes out was pathetic but hilarious. I remember the audience I watched it with erupting with thunderous laughter.

That's my last one.

sorry i think i saw the second twice

You're desperation makes me weep. So you equate obvious instances when he leaps and clings to a ceiling or a ledge to him magically entering and exiting a car with no sound or visual of the door opening and closing.

And BTW- As Spidey is the first one in the car- he's actually the one guilty of breaking and entering. This Spider-Man ain't too bright for a genius..

I'll take "desperation" over denial any day of the week. Next time you watch TASM to find new things to complain about, listen close when the carjacker goes out the window. You can clearly hear a car door close.

Except Spidey isn't shown to have jumped on the ceiling or a ledge in that scene with the burglar. He just vanishes.

And BTW- As Spidey is the first one in the car- he's actually the one guilty of breaking and entering. This Spider-Man ain't too bright for a genius..

And Spidey in Raimi's isn't? He would be as guilty in Raimi's '02 film than in TAS-M as the jurors would easily say Peter was guilty of killing that burglar(who didn't even kill anyone himself).

Why does Dragon have a vendetta against this film?

Like that'll happen

Even if he actually made a sound leaving, it doesn't take away from the entry and the cheese-laden dialogue. And this is only one scene we're talking here. There is so much cheese in this film it ought to be labled as dangerous to the lactose-intolerant.

My updated version of the analysis for TASM opening weekend and see how it affects its final gross,
http://box-office-film-news.blogspot.com/2012/07/amazing-spider-man-hits-65-million-over.html,

I just can't wait for a sequel. I have high expectations...

 

[Anno_Domini]

Why does Dragon have a vendetta against this film?

He just really loves Raimi's trilogy.

And he thinks everything else is overrated such as Nolan's Bat films.

 

[Dragon]

You're joking, right? There's a difference between giving the impression from the burglar's POV that Spidey disappears, even though anyone in the audience with an f-ing brain knows he just leapt away. As opposed to the impossibility of his entry into the car. He couldn't have leapt in, climbed in or any such thing without being heard or seen.

And Spidey in Raimi's isn't? He would be as guilty in Raimi's '02 film than in TAS-M as the jurors would easily say Peter was guilty of killing that burglar(who didn't even kill anyone himself).

Now I know you're joking. There's not a shred of evidence to say that Peter killed the guy. There would be evidence that the guy tried to kill Peter (Finger prints on the gun and knife). There would be evidence to show that Spidey entered that car- (Unless he really did appear by magic)

 

[Dragon]

Why does Dragon have a vendetta against this film?

I don't have a vendetta against any film. I would love for this film to have been great. It just wasn't. There were some great moments and I like Garfield and Stone. But the script was just lousy.

 

[Jexx]

Dragon, in Spider-Man 1 he couldn't of escaped being noticed by his family + MJ + Osbornes in time. Yet he did.

As long as you know he just disappears without the cops even noticing. Same thing of using an ability that Spider-Man doesn't have, correct?

Plus...Spidey most likely just went inside the exact same time the burglar unlocks the car. The is the only answer anyways since the thief had to use something to unlock the car.

Now I know you're joking. There's not a shred of evidence to say that Peter killed the guy. There would be evidence that the guy tried to kill Peter (Finger prints on the gun and knife). There would be evidence to show that Spidey entered that car- (Unless he really did appear by magic)

Who cares if there was fingerprints on that gun and knife? The cops only see the burglar falling down and then going up to see Spidey standing there; zero proof that shows the burglar fell from his own ignorance of tripping. I think you're joking in trying to defend that silly point. Peter will be slammed as guilty because there's no way he could be found not guilty.

Now why would you lie that way? I've criticized Raimi's films repeatedly. I mostly defend them against folks like yourself who take things to the other extreme and say EVERYTHING about films like Spidey 3 was bad. I'm certainly not saying everything about TASM was bad. It had a bad script. And when that's off even the best things are going to be lacking.

And I've certainly praised TDK. I've said repeatedly that in THE OVERALL it's the best Batman film. But it has drawbacks. I just don't like BB.

 

[Jexx]

..I like the Raimi trilogy.

But honestly, I only have saw you defend the Raimi trilogy and spit on ASM. I am a new member, yes, but you're making a bad first impression.

But you have said TDK is still overrated, which is ridiculous to say. If you even say it's the best Batman film overall, how can it be overrated?

And also, you have said Spider-Man 3 is still great as its flaws, even telling me that I should look past those flaws since I look past some flaws on The Dark Knight. Totally different situation when S-M 3's flaws kills the movie.

 

[Dragon]

Dragon, in Spider-Man 1 he couldn't of escaped being noticed by his family + MJ + Osbornes in time. Yet he did.

He absolutely could have. You're talking about a guy who can dodge gunfire. And as the scene makes plain- no one is going to naturally look at the ceiling for someone. Osborn only does after the blood droplet hits the floor, and it's clear that Peter started moving when the drop fell from his arm.

 

[Jexx]

Also, saying that TASM had a bad script is opinion, forcing your opinion on others isn't really the way to go, even though most of us are guilty of doing that once in a while.

I try not to.. unless someone says something about the movie to justify hating it when I don't even understand how their reason begins to make sense.

Pssk..he's been doing this for awhile before the film's release. He's just doing it to a much grander extent now that the film is out.

What about guys like me who, before the reboot and a possible SM4, was desperate for a reboot?

TASM did not have a bad script but it wasn't perfect. IMO, the characters where definitely written better here, and I preferred the way the Ben death played out with it not being resolved in the first film.

There are things about the Raimi trilogy that I love.

Anyway, $340 million so far? Not a bad return so far I must say

 

[Jexx]

Smegger, you spelled definitely wrong.
