“Spider-Man 2”
ignites box office
LOS ANGELES (AP) - “Spider-
Man 2” pulled in a record $180
million in its first six days and
obliterated other box-office highs
over the long Fourth of July
weekend.
The "Spider-Man 2” haul was
well above the previous best six-
day opening of $146.7 million
set last year by “The Matrix
Reloaded."
"I think our hope was to go
into the heart of the summer and
grab the biggest six days possi
ble. That's pretty much what
happened," Jeff Blake, vice
chairman for “Spider-Man 2”
distributor Sony, said Monday.
Last weekend's top film,
Michael Moore’s “Fahrenheit
9/11,” fell to second place with
$21 million over the four-day
weekend, raising its total to
$60.1 million. The film could
become the first documentary
ever to top $100 million.
“We feel great that we were
able to absorb the blow of
Spidey and come back fight
ing," said Tom Ortenberg, pres
ident of Lions Gate Films, one
of the distributors of
“Fahrenheit 9/11.’’
Hollywood had a record
Fourth of July weekend, with the
top 12 movies taking in $158.5
million from Friday to Sunday,

Presley's “That’s All Right’’
