The Spider-man franchise has been beaten to death. The bad ending to the third trilogy, the mediocre reboot, the bad sequel to that.

Like Batman Begins, I'm going to have to hear a lot of good WOM on SPID6 before I start giving a crap about it.

On the other hand, Wonder Woman is something new and interesting, at least within the Hollywood comic adaptation tentpole genre.

Given how much better MARVEL films seem to fare vs. DC, any thoughts on why such a huge gap between WONDR and SPID6, released a month apart? {nm} tomcat90 Apr 12, 10:01

You mean why doesn't Marvel move Spidey closer to Wonder Woman? {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 12, 10:05

Haha, no, I meant a price gab of more than $60....Especially with the great buzz CAPA3 is getting, and all the crossover {nm} tomcat90 Apr 12, 10:07

Well I certainly wouldn't say "always", and when things don't make sense, I question. Closer releases are always over-discussed already :) {nm} tomcat90 Apr 12, 10:10

This comment should be lower down the thread. I meant to answer Anti {nm} tomcat90 Apr 12, 10:11

Your motivation seems to be to move the stock price, rather than a geniune discussion of the box office. {nm} Antibody Apr 12, 10:14

That is patently false and I take offense to that suggestion. This game is a silly distraction and a way to follow Movie happenings {nm} tomcat90 Apr 12, 10:24

It may face a Batman Begins kind of struggle, where it puts up just ok opening weekend and it takes a quality entry to spark SPID7 {nm} notfabio Apr 12, 10:09

I agree with this point, but those previous films weren't part of the MCU. {nm} tomcat90 Apr 12, 10:13

Why are your questions always about prices for films more than a year away? {nm} Antibody Apr 12, 10:07

Kind of early to call on DC films - besides Iron Man, the first couple Marvel films weren't mega-hits either. CG63 Apr 12, 15:12

The earlier Marvel films weren't featuring the two biggest fictional cultural icons of the past half century. {nm} CommonAnomaly Apr 12, 17:00

No, but they were films about characters who hadn't been filmed before, multiple times {nm} CG63 Apr 13, 15:04
