THR: "The plan for [SPID4] is to be in the $80 million range and feature a cast of relative unknowns." $80M? That's it? Antibody Jan 19, 17:33

And when are we gonna see ipo's fer Spid5 and Spid6? =D {nm} Catzan Jan 19, 17:42

Agreed. Not a huge investment. I make that in almost a year {nm} FabioParme Jan 19, 17:43

not a typical superhero budget, but 2009 showed you can turn out many good films on less $ (e.g. D9) {nm} islander Jan 19, 17:46

but it also would correlate atleast in my head to a fraction of the box office {nm} sneak Jan 19, 18:01

Twilight New Moon had a $50 million budget, Eclipse which will be more FX heavy probably will be about 80 million. {nm} notfabio Jan 19, 18:03

yeah thats about what i was thinking :) islander Jan 19, 18:09

I am having a hrd time drawing correlation between twilight and spiderman; they seem to be substanitally different in age, audience, path... {nm} sneak Jan 19, 18:20

this radical change for spidey is going to be interesting for sure to see how it plays out {nm} islander Jan 19, 18:25

Video: I'm A Marvel ...I'm A DC (Spidey worries reboot might be too much like The Dark Knight or too much like Twilight) RazorHawk Jan 19, 19:22

that's why i said in my head. I'm sure the majority of people on this board can prove me to be completely wrong sneak Jan 19, 18:15

The effects looked cheap in the TWLI2 trailers. {nm} Antibody Jan 19, 18:21

Well to be fair even the FX in the 200-300+ million budget sequels had more than a few dodgy moments {nm} notfabio Jan 19, 18:25

i dont. sony had a great run with the trilogy, but now why not go the twilight way? get a hot young cast, focus on the drama and have... islander Jan 19, 18:05

Ang Lee's HULK didn't fare well with fans in its emphasis on angst-filled drama over action. {nm} Antibody Jan 19, 18:16

well i assumed the high school plot would appeal to teens/girls where as hulk didnt. besides, hulk had eric freakin bana who imho is weak. {nm} islander Jan 19, 18:22

Poodle killed Ang Lee's Hulk {nm} RazorHawk Jan 19, 18:28

Spiderman 4 seems doomed to be the next Home Alone 3, I wonder if Corey Haim can still play a teen {nm} TheSureThing Jan 19, 17:52

Corey Haim is busy prepping/filming Lost Boys 4 and is unavailable at this time. RazorHawk Jan 19, 18:07

That's odd. I did not know about Lost Boys 2 nor 3. And the first one is one of my eighties favorites.. B-movie fare, these? {nm} Toruk Facto Jan 19, 18:32

Perhaps we'll get to see a "Jack Sparrow" in high school next. {nm} second gary Jan 19, 18:15

No, but there's XMEN4. {nm} Antibody Jan 19, 18:26

They're aiming for Twilight. who99 Jan 19, 20:12

If Zhang Yimou can make Hero for something like $10 million, then why the heck not? {nm} secretstalker Jan 19, 21:08
