Like everyone else in the free world, I had a chance to check out Spider-man 3 this weekend. A few hours ago, actually. I'm not going to write a lengthy review for fear of spoiling anything, but I will say that it was pretty good!The film had really great action sequences (like you would expect) but to my surprise it had a lot of "laugh out loud" moments, too. Unfortunately the audience LOL'd at a few moments that were supposed to be sad... mainly because Tobey McGuire makes really weird facial expressions when he's crying. There is also a really weird dance sequence that seemed really out of place for the film, but that was probably the only awkward part. Good movie over all, though, and lots of great special effects!
The movie has only been out for three days and has already earned $148 million dollars! It also broke the single-day box office record (previously held by Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest) by earning over $59 million bucks in ticket sales! I'm sure someone's spidey sense was tingling over that!
The producers must not have anticipated such a learn opening weekend, because they had an alternate version of the film prepared. The unreleased version is filled with popular products that advertisers must have paid a pretty penny to drop in. Check out this secret footage from our friends at Black20.com
