Spiderman 3

April 27, 2007

Pirated copies of “Spider-Man 3″ have already hit the streets of Beijing, China. Keep in mind…the film isn’t set to open for two weeks in the US.

Copies of the film hit the streets Tuesday the 24th and though no one in the West has been able to vouch for the authenticity of the burned copies, it’s still pretty ridiculous.

Chinese piracy accounts for close to a billion dollars in losses for US cultural exports per year. “Spider-Man 3″ in particular can’t afford any lost revenue seeing as it’s the most expensive film ever made (some estimates reaching upward of $500 million).

This story reminds me of this scene in the classic epic film SPACEBALLS.

I’d rather watch Spaceballs over any of the Spiderman any day. Not a big fan of Toby or Spidey.

Oh for the pirate thing…that is typical, not shocking that it would happen. Stuff like this happends everyday.

I love Spiderman. There is something very romantic about him I can’t wait to see it.
