Ironman's opening Weekend number were $100.8 million
Spiderman 3's opening numbers were $150.3 million
Granted Spiderman is an established franchise, but how can they be happy with only 50% of what an unknown Ironman did on opening weekend?

Because it is universally accepted that Ang Lee's Hulk was the worst comic book movie in the history of all comic book movies.
For this one to gross HALF of what Iron Man pulled in was a major coup.
It IS a very good movie. On par, or better than Iron Man in pacing and action, IMO.
