Spider-Man 2: $39 million opening day
Spider-Man 2 has opened with a whopping $38.6 million this Wednesday. It has surpassed The Lord Of The Rings: Return of the King as the biggest opening for a Wednesday. I had originally predicted that it would surpass $50 million...it will do that this Saturday 7/3.
The 2004 movie season is already over. Forget Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow, forget The Incredibles, forget all those other movies for this year. "Spider-Man 2" has obliterated everything, six months ahead of schedule. We can now look forward to the movie "Because Of Winn-Dixie." The movie debuts January 14, 2005.
