Sony's successful The Amazing Spider-Man 3D reboot came in at around $35M this weekend with a good -44% hold and a cume passing $200M sometime Sunday. A week after opening, Spidey hit $400M worldwide and Sony is confident it will end up around $800M. (Interesting how Spidey or Scrat were either #1 or #2 in international theaters country by country last weekend.) There's no doubt this franchise restart with another origins story for Marvel's most popular character is a success, even if it didn't break box office records or reinvent the genre or even please fanboys. So Sony Pictures Entertainment chairman Amy Pascal and vice chairman Jeff Blake deserve kudos for taking a risk.
