Yea I just saw Spiderman on HBO last week and have to say it sucked compared to TMR. I thought it was juvenile and had cheezey effects. I honestly don't understand how it made to much money. I Matrix movies are repeat viewing material all the way.

Funny how so many people looooved Spider-Man yet never complained about how FAKE he looked in his CG form, yet people whine and bitch about how TMR CG sucked because some agents looked fake.
I can't understand how a few fake looking agents out of a hundred can take you out of a movie, but at the same time a fake looking Spider-Man (the main character) is negligible.

I don't think there's a chance in a hell that MR will touch Spiderman's $400 mil, but it is indeed quite a feat to be compared, especially with the R-rating (which is supposed to be the kiss-of-death for box office success).

Yea I hear that as well and posted it last week. What I head was 15 million a movie plus 15% of the gross. Not a bad years work.

I think Keanu had to give up his $30 million salary (or most of it to get the special effects done), but with the 15% take, he could easily pull in $25 million for the first sequel alone.
