I blame marketing. I barely knew what this was. I saw one trailer for this and thought it was an animated short. The only reason I knew it was a full movie was because I read it in this board. And if I'm that clueless about it, I can assume that general audiences aren't as aware of it as well.

I think the problem with the marketing was that while the movie looked unique and interesting (which it was), it also looked rather niche for an animated film. It didn’t look as safe and marketable as the stuff you see from Illumination or a Pixar sequel. The movie is definitely pretty weird and unorthodox for an animated kid’s film, especially with the low frame rate. |

Worldwide: $129,600,063, with a 90M prod budget. Probably needs 200M to break even incl marketing costs.
This is a must-buy for BR for me. It will look great on the small screen, the jerky frame rate animation will be less distracting and experimental.
I loved the out-of-shape sweat pants PeterParker. That is how I would like to see the protagonist of a grown up Spiderman movie for a change.

Unfortunately I won't be able to watch this or Aquaman until January (damn holidays) but the film does look promising.
I've always said that Comic Books should get the theatrical animated treatment, so hopefully it will kick off with this.

Wow that was really good. Still have Spider-Man 2 as the top dog amongst suoerheroes movies, but this is probably number 2 on the Spider-Man scale.

This is the most awesome Spider-Man movie for me.
Great story, great visuals, definitely the best musical score of all the Spider-Man films, great characters.
And a scale that none of the live-action movies can compete with, although Spider-Man 2, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and Spider-Man: Homecoming come close.

Worldwide: $156,088,583 with a 90M budget
I hope this should do well on home media release and/or streaming as it's not a film that draws the masses into cinema (no surprise considering the fierce competition of Aqua, Bubble, Poppins etc).
But it is quality Spiderman only second to the first movie in terms of vision and originality.

Good: Worldwide: $213,243,730 Domestic: $103,643,730 (48.6%) Foreign: $109,600,000 (51.4%) So this should make some profit after all, a nice one if it has spiderlegs. Also, some big markets premiers will only happen much later (Japan: 8 March 2019, Argentina 10 January 2019, Brazil 10 January 2019)  |

Really good movie. Probably the best animated superhero movie I’ve seen since The Incredibles. Better than The Incredibles in some ways. Made me think of the first time I watched Akira.

Definitely like Akira in terms of the cityscapes, but even better.

Domestic: $133,861,346 48.6% Foreign: $141,500,000 51.4% = Worldwide: $275,361,346Not doing badly with budge of USD 90M. It should be pretty profitable a film considering the retrained marketing effort. Domestically, Spider-Verse delivered an estimated $13 million over the weekend, pushing the film's domestic cume to $133.8 million. WW, it enjoyed its time in China over the past couple of weekends where it has now grossed nearly $60 million. This weekend it added an additional $11.7 million overseas for an international cume that now stands at $141.5 million.  |

its good to see a non-mcu film be so successful
i hope this means that sony and dc are about to take the reigns back from them
audiences have been dumbed down by the mcu for far too long
