Top Spiderman Movies in the Past 10 Years

Spiderman Movies: (In order of least worldwide gross to highest worldwide gross)

4) The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) $752,216,557:
After the huge success of the other three Spider-man films had, you wouldn’t guess that a reboot of the series would have the lowest grossing of all four, but here we are. Granted, there were many things changed in this film when compared to the original three such as the actors, directors, age of Peter Parker and even the villain, but it is still hard to believe this would place last.

3) Spider-Man 2 (2005): $783,766, 341: Despite placing last of all the three original Spider-Man movies, this movie still made more than double the combined total of all the superhero movies (besides this one) that were also released in 2005 which included Blade: Trinity, and Hellboy.
2) Spider-Man (2002): $821,708,551:In my opinion, nothing beats the original. I find there is more room for character development in the original when the role/responsibility of becoming a superhero is first being taken up, and the original Spider-Man took advantage of that excellently. With that said, this original didn't actually have the highest worldwide gross.

1) Spider-Man 3 (2007): $890,871,626: Statistics shows that movies in this decade have a higher worldwide gross than last decade; however, the newest Spider-Man movie actually placed last. No, this is just a good movie. Who could forget its notorious scenes involving Venom and Peter’s change of attitude, as well as the powerful themes revisited from the first movie such as Sandman’s involvement behind the death of Ben which starts Spider-Man’s journey for justice?

All 4 movies did extremely well in the box office, but does money earned really justify most accurately the order in which the superhero movies are shown? You tell me.
