: answer when does not live up to Spiderman, when one was supposed to....however I'll admit Star Wars was shown in some 1500 less theatres than Spiderman was so.....likely per capita....star wars did better
Star Wars per screen (first weekend): $25,317 average
Spider-Man per screen (first weekend): $31,769 average
I'm glad, though, that everybody now seems to agree that dividing camps over movie grosses is silly. And gay. (Even if one of the dudes basically just threw Vincent's words back out there almost verbatim.)
