P.O.T.C. 3 vS Spiderman 3/Box Office Face-Off

Started by Smasandian13 pages

I say Shrek 3.

SP3 was absolute shit. One of the worst movies I've seen in the past couple of years.

I say that the majority of people who've want to see it, already have. I'm probably gonig to be wrong, but I think the box office will fall after two weeks because well, last time Spiderman came out there wasnt an massive amount of movies out there like there is now.

Word of mouth is spreading so badly I may not ever go and see it in the end. 28 Weeks Later anyone? 😉

Double post due to server lag 🙂

Hope I didn't offend your sensibilities.

Agreed.

It wasn't THAT bad.

I mean, come on, it was by FAR the most entertaining of the trilogy.

I'm not saying it was the best, but still, it's hard for me to believe that it was "absolute shit."

Yeah, it was absolute shit.

From the emo parker scenes, from the sandman (why the hell was he there), horrible acting from Dunst and Maguire, action scenes werent even that good, and horrible story. Dont forget the horrible dance scene.

It was absolute shit

Only redeemable part of that story was Bruce Campbell and Venom looked cool....but that could be just me liking it because I've been waiting for Venom since the first one.

I agree and disagree with you.

Emo-Peter was handled completely wrong and WAS shit (that includes the dance scene). That should've been much more serious.

As for the acting, I'd say it was mediocre. By now means "absolute shit." I mean, I guess it's personal preference, but when I think of "shit-acting" I think of Jamie Kennedy in Son of the Mask or Stone Cold Steve Austin in the Condemned.

And how could you not see why the Sandman was necessary? It was kind of obvious to me. It was for Peter's character development. They wanted him to confront the hatred he had for his Uncle's death one final time and put it behind him/move on. It was a huge step for him and arguabley essential for the character of Spider-Man.

It would have been a hell of a lot better if they split this into two movies. There was way too much material to cover and they completely ruined the plot by trying to rush through it all.

Lets see how "SP3" does going into weekend 2. It'll probably blow this weekend away too. "28 weeks later" will be dead 1 week later.

My guess that 28 days did not do that well in the box office.I think it would be neat if Spriderman and POTC is out on the same day.That would be hard for fans to go see both and have to pick which one they like the best!
That is one way for the box office to get some money!jm

I put things into revelence when it comes to movies.Same with acting. Obviously, Kennedy and Austin are worst offenders of acting but Maguire, Dunst are just as bad. They made thier characters seem like whining little bitches. It was annoying.

Couldnt they do all those things alot faster instead of making it an essential badguy? With Sandman in the movie, the movie had way to much crap to put into a movie that was less than three hours long. IF they stuck to the original storyline of Venom....Spiderman 3 would of been alot better.

I thought that Venom was more of an afterthought in the development stages?

I guess...I dont know.

It was just a bad movie.

How about you shutup about crappy acting? They did great in these movies. You can think it was crap all you want, doesn't mean you have to keep repeating yourself. And just stop acting like wannabe critics.

Although I still haven't got round to seeing this film, and I really wasn't expecting much, I don't think I'm going to pass this off as a bad movie.

It seems to have disappointed, maybe, like the previous ones did to me.

And stop acting like Stan Lee's *****.

From the looks of Friday B.O. numbers, PotC: At World's End should be able to best S-M3 relatively easily - unless the film is utter shite. S-M3 is looking at a comparable second week drop as XM3: The Last Stand, which will give it a second frame of somewhere along the lines of $60 mil. Shrek 3 comes out next weekend so it won't hold well into the third weekend, and PotC comes out the weekend after.
