Could Spider-Man 3 Be A Bust?

Sony Pictures, the distributor of the summer movie Spider-man 3, premiered the flick early in Japan to help capture the overseas market, a huge chunk of profits, and to help repolish their name brand. Sony has taken some hits with the mildly successful PlayStation 3 and Blu-Ray Hi-Def DVD system.

While the PS3 needs time to grow into its skin, there's no doubt Nintendo kick their ass in the holiday season with the untouchable Wii. You still can't find Wii's here but the retailers are stocked up on the $600 PS3, not a sign you want to see if your Sony. The European release of the PS3 met with mixed reviews with watered down specs for the unit. Add in the Blu-Ray DVD format war with HD-DVD (experts say HD-DVD will win) and you might be second guessing that huge investment for a gaming console.

Back to Spider-man 3. The early reviews from Japan are starting to pour in as the Internet gears up for the release of the film in a couple of weeks in the States. While some reviews see it as a disappointment, others claim you're not gonna be left hanging.
