Los Angeles, February 15 - "Spider-Man: No Way Home" is now the 3rd biggest-grossing movie at the domestic (North America) box office, beating James Cameron's 2009 sci-fi epic "Avatar's" $760.5 million. ## The total domestic gross collection of Tom Holland-fronted superhero movie has reached an estimated $760.9 million after collecting $1.6 million on Valentine's Day. There were doubts whether "No Way Home" would be able to beat "Avatar", and now, it can officially be said that it has busted those doubts and done the unimaginable in the middle of the covid-19 pandemic. ## Directed by Jon Watts, "Spider-Man: No Way Home" has beaten the odds of the pandemic, however, this box office juggernaut is likely to stop with number 3 as it is unlikely to climb further heights in domestic markets. If it pushes really hard and does something which has never happened before, it will still need approx $100 million to beat "Avengers: Endgame" ($858 million) to reach 2nd spot at the domestic box office, which looks like an uphill task. "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" ($936 million) remains in the first place. ## "Spider-Man: No Way Home", however, has played its part in glorifying the big-screen magic, in fact, it has done more than anyone had predicted at the time of the film's theatrical debut in December 2021. Meanwhile, "No Way Home" is also super strong at the international box office, and is currently the 6th biggest title at the global box office with $1.80 billion, without a single penny from China, which is the biggest movie market. ## "Avatar", meanwhile, may have slipped to 4th spot in the domestic market, it is still the king of the global box office with $2.802 billion, and will easily maintain its position without any trouble. If other movies really don't do something miraculous, only "Avatar 2", which is scheduled to release in December 2022, could come close or beat its preceeder at the worldwide box office. ## Coming back to "No Way Home", the 3rd MCU Spidey flick has shattered many records during its nearly 2-months long box office journey. During the opening weekend alone, the film landed the second-biggest domestic debut in history with $260 million and the third-largest global start ever with $600 million. It also became the first and only title to score $1 billion worldwide during the covid-19 pandemic. ## Stay tuned...

Los Angeles, February 12 - The recently announced nominations for the 94th Academy Awards are being criticized for not picking "Spider-Man: No Way Home", in the Best Picture category. Despite being hailed critically and doing wonders at the box office, "No Way Home" was nominated only for the Best Visual Effects category. ## Jimmy Kimmel called out on Academy on Tuesday's late-night episode and argued that the biggest snub was the movie everyone is going to see, even Academy voters. He also said that "Don't Look Up" was not worthy to be picked for a Best Picture nomination. ## "The biggest snub today in my opinion, and I'm actually even angry about this, I'm kind of embarrassed to say, is the unforgivable omission of Spider-Man: No Way Home", he said. "You're telling me Don't Look Up was better than Spider-Man? It certainly was not", he argued. Kimmel wondered how "No Way Home" didn't get one of the ten nominations this year and called it a "great" movie. ## Among the other people who are not happy with "Spider-Man: No Way Home's" Best Picture snub is director Kevin Smith. On his podcast, FatMan Beyond (via Deadline), Smith did not say which of the ten should be eliminated to make way for Spider-Man.## "I would just like to congratulate the good folks who made Spider-Man: No Way Home for the very deserved Best Picture nomination that I'm sure it got, I didn't read the nods", he said at first, before doing a spit take when he was informed it did not.## "What the f—! They got 10 slots, they can't give one to the biggest f—–g movie of, like, the last three years?" He said it was unfathomable, given that the Oscars ratings are dropping. "Like f—–g make a populist choice, f—, man. You got how many slots? Throw in Spider-Man for God's sakes; let him swing in there. F—–g poor kid's always getting crapped on and s—. Show Peter Parker some f—–g love. I'm not even being facetious, with as many movies as they now nominate for Best Picture…."## The 94th annual Academy Awards will be live at Hollywood's Dolby Theatre on ABC Sunday, March 27.## Stay tuned...

Los Angeles, February 4 - The latest Spider-Man movie, "Spider-Man: No Way Home" is going nuts at the worldwide box office and breaking records with each passing day. The superhero movie, fronted by Tom Holland, has already become one of the all-time highest-grossing films. ## The box office success of "No Way Home" has left everyone wondering about how did it do that and Tom Holland is no exception. During the promotional press tour of Tom Holland's upcoming movie "Uncharted", the actor was informed how close "No Way Home" is to passing "Avatar's" lifetime domestic (North America) box office total. ## Holland was asked by a journalist how he was feeling about the success of "No Way Home". As you can see in the video below, Holland had no idea just how well the movie was performing and when the journalist informs him the film is just $20 million from crossing "Avatar" domestically, Holland couldn't believe what he's hearing, even looking to his team off-camera for validation.## TOM’S FACE WHEN HE DROPS THE NEWS 😭 pic.twitter.com/FkXWBMrPMC— Cam 🎬 (@camandfilm) February 2, 2022 ## Now to fact-check the claims in the video, "No Way Home" won't become the biggest movie domestically by crossing only "Avatar" ($760M). If it crosses James Cameron-directed, it will become the 3rd biggest Hollywood movie at the domestic box office, behind "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" ($936M) and "Avengers: Endgame" ($858M). ## At the worldwide box office, "Spider-Man: No Way Home" is currently at the 6th spot among the all-time biggest grosser with a $1.73 billion box office total.

Los Angeles, January 30 - The Marvel/Sony Pictures' "Spider-Man: No Way Home", which has already broken several box office records worldwide, has now become bigger than the combined first two Spider-Man movies featuring Tom Holland at the domestic (North America) box office. ## The finale of Tom Holland's Homecoming trilogy grossed $2.75 million on its 7th Friday, pushing the film's total domestic cume to $727.6 million. The "No Way Home's" total domestic cume is $2.9 million higher than the combined total of "Spider-Man: Homecoming", and "Spider-Man: Far From Home". ## "Spider-Man: Homecoming", which was released in 2017, had grossed $334.2 million at the domestic box office, while its worldwide total reached $880.1 million. On the other hand, "Spider-Man: Far From Home", released in 2019, did better than "Homecoming" and grossed $390.5 million domestically and $1.1 billion globally.## However, there shouldn't be any comparison among all three Spider-Man movies in the Homecoming trilogy. While the first two Tom Holland-fronted Spidey flicks were released when there was no covid-19, "No Way Home" has battled the pandemic all the way and how. It is already the biggest Spider-Man movie of all time, both at the domestic and overseas box office and overall, the 6th highest-grossing movie ever at the worldwide box office.## One of the main reasons behind "No Way Home's" blockbuster box office success is the surprise elements involved in it. The movie introduces the multiverse concept into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), which allows the popular characters from the past Spider-Man movies to feature in the film. ## Directed by Jon Watts, in the film, Peter Parker (Holland) asks Dr. Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) to use magic to make his Spider-Man identity a secret again following its public revelation at the end of Far From Home. When the spell goes wrong, the multiverse is broken open which allows visitors from alternate realities to enter Parker's universe.## Stay tuned...

Mumbai, January 25 - Marvel/Sony Pictures did everything to keep the Spider-Man fans guessing about the elements in "Spider-Man: No Way Home", released a month ago. Even though the secret was revealed with the release of the film in December 2021, the social media users, however, have finally their first official look at the secret, Marvel/Sony was hiding until yesterday. ## For the first time since the film's release in December, fans are seeing a photo from the movie prominently featuring its best and most spoilery part. The image comes courtesy of an interview VFX supervisor Chris Waegner did with the website Befores and Afters, in which he broke down several key special effects sequences in the movie.## One of the first images shows Tom Holland's Peter Parker/Spider-Man uniting with Andrew Garfield, and Tobey Maguire's web slingers.
