Monday Movie Roundup...5/5/2014

And a Happy Cinco de Mayo to you Pepe...
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 took the top spot to no one's surprise, with $369 million in the bank.
That's...amazing?
It made about $92 million in the States, plus $277 million from other countries thus far.
I say "thus far" because it's only been released in some countries as early as April 27th.
 I know...I know...
Of those places, the UK contributed the most, with $27.7 million.
Mexico brought in $19.4 million,
South Korea $13.8 million,
and Australia and Germany roughly $10.6 million each.
China, Brazil, France and Hong Kong are among those yet to see it. Go figure.
I gotta believe that's more a Fox Studios thing than a Marvel thing.
Anyways...
CA: TWS made an additional $7.7 this weekend 
This brings its Worldwide total to $$679.8 million,
pushing it past Thor: The Dark World to the #3 spot of all Marvel Studios' films.
I don't believe it either Stephen.
And it's all the Foreign Market, bringing in almost twice as much.
I'm sure there's a political angle/message to all that, but I'm too thick to see it.
Speaking of Worldwide totals,
ASM 2 has quite a ways to go among all Spidey films to date.
Right now, it's #5 of five, with ASM in fourth place.
Want to guess which Spidey film is #1?
Nope. It's Spider-Man 3, with $890.9 million.
Hey...blame the Foreign Market.
