Well done to everyone at Sony Pictures but I can’t help but think that this announcement is timed to defuse Sony’s upcoming second quarter results which will no doubt be dismal.
With no big cash injection (after selling their Spiderman merchandise rights to Disney last quarter) could the film division be in for a tough couple of weeks?

Its not the top overseas.

Spidey 3 made over 500mil overseas.
So this new Spidey is still a bit short of being the top of the franchise, at least thus far - Moose Wayne
Spider-Man 3 is still the top film of the series overseas with $554,341,323

Spider-man 3 grossed over 550 overseas, how can this flick be the top grosser of the franchise?
