Spidermans predictable but undeserved rise
Spiderman 3 seems to keep going http:// news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/ entertainment/6652237.stm, its made $60m in the US apparently. Not bad for a film thats not actually that great - but then I’ve seen it so why would the studios know any different.
If Spiderman can make this much money what the hell is pirates going to do? The last Pirates film made stupid amounts of cash and I can’t see how the third installment is going to be any different. Shrek 3 will make a lot too although I don’t think it will generate the same income as the other two. Perhaps Harry Potter can upstage them but I’m not so sure!
I agree with what Ian and Andi have said about Spiderman, it’s kind of a nothing film as you don’t really get into the characters. Now I heard Campea from the movie blog go on about this before but why would the people who make the films change the way they do it? They make so much money from these blockbusters that it’s not important to them to make the film that good - bums on seats as they say. How do people get that message across? No idea.

Ignore Spiderman now. Get ready for the Iron Man trilogy. Nothing but exciting news there. I saw the suit on the pap footage and it looked awesome even from a distance. As soon as I heard Downey Jr was Stark I was stocked.
Kill Spiderman off for a bit.
Spiderman 3 is nothing. We want Guillermo del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth, Hellboy) for directing Spiderman 4
