Colllections Of Spiderman Films

Spiderman comes alive in a film in 2002. The collection for the first Spiderman movie worldwide was $821.6 millions and the domestics collections (for US alone) is $403.7 millions. Spiderman become the 3rd biggest movie in ranking worldwide in 2002 after Harry Porter and the Chamber Of Secret ($879 mill) and Lord of the Rings –The Two Towers ($924.7 mill). Spiderman also beat the collections for Star Wars –Episodes Two Attack of the Clones in the same year.

But for the sequel, Spiderman 2 releases in 2004. The collections are decrease compared to the first Spiderman movies. Spiderman 2 collected only $783.6 mill less about $100 +- mill from the first movie. But Spiderman 2 still at the ranking no.3 among the films release in 2004 also been beat by the Harry Porter (The Prisoner of Azkaban). Some say, the sequel of Spiderman was not as what they expected to be. Even though, a Spiderman 2 collection is less than the first one but both Spiderman movies were ranked no.3 in the year of release. This is a normal trend for the sequel films in Hollywood, the first one will gained better result and collections. It’s happened to most of superheroes films such as Batman. Even the attempted to reproduce the Batman films in Batman Begin is not as good as the first Batman Movie collections.

Now, the new sequel for Spiderman, Spiderman 3 will be release in May, 2007. What could be expected from his film collections, can it beat the first sequel? And I believe the all the crew and people involved has taken steps to make this films better than the last 2 film, because it should be better (with 3 villains) … right?
