According to Box Office Mojo, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 seems to be hitting big numbers worldwide, with a worldwide tally of just above $450 million after Thursday night, despite so-so reviews and only "good" word-of-mouth. Can it keep up this kind of momentum?
With
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 tracking to make around $35 million domestically even with the most pessimistic of projectors and China's market opening up for Spider-Man just last Sunday, it looks like the sequel to Marc Webb's 2012
The Amazing Spider-Man will hit $500 million this weekend. Given another domestic fall, it seems international numbers are again going to be the thing
Sony's looking for when the final tally comes in.
In comparison,
Captain America: The Winter Soldier, at this time, was pulling less internationally and narrowly beating
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 domestically by approximately $7 million. Also of note, Rory Bruer, president of Sony Pictures Worldwide Distribution, stated that this is not only meeting the wanted results but, in fact, is exceeding them.
