Like I said, Avengers raised the bar to an unreachable height. -- nm

This is going to earn less in 6 days than Spider-Man 3 did in 3 days in 2007. That's got nothing to do with Avengers. -- nm - David Jul 6, 08:32 13
- Not only financially, but impact/desire. Ultra new/dream movie followed by a (too soon) reboot. -- nm - Spawn Jul 6, 08:37 9
  - If the movie wasn't a re-boot - but a new Spider-Man movie with a new cast,, creative team, etc in the same universe, do you think it would have done - Roger More Jul 6, 08:50 6
    - I think an autumn (or at least August) opening would have made a big difference. -- nm - zork Jul 6, 09:01 3
      - I don't think time of year has anything at all to do with it, frankly. -- nm - Reagen Jul 6, 09:09 2
        
        I definitely agree that it's way too soon for a reboot but this release is too "piled up" on Avengers -- nm - zork Jul 6, 09:11 1
        
        I don't agree at all. It's been two months, and we've had huge opening weekends pile up on each other before. -- nm - Reagen Jul 6, 09:15
    - I would have even less desire to see it, if that helps. I already don't plan on seeing it, but that would be a death knell. - Beryllium Jul 6, 08:59
    - Good question. I am doubtful either way. I have not seen it, but if they did enough right this has a better chance of making the next one - Spawn Jul 6, 08:58
  - That's exactly right and from that perspective, it's a miracle the movie is doing this well. - David Jul 6, 08:39 1
    - Emma Stone effect! -- nm - Qale Jul 6, 08:44
- i think the monday opening was a mistake. -- nm - Andie Jul 6, 08:34 2
  - Peter Parker one liners fall very flat after hearing Avengers banter. -- nm - Spawn Jul 6, 08:41
  - It may prove to be but they wanted to follow the same model as Transformers in 2007, which also debuted with Monday sneaks. - David Jul 6, 08:36
