You mean the only movie to beat it while being out at the same time?
And?
Spider-man was a better movie and the only thing that probably matters to is George Lucas' ego.
Many people say they don't, but I think they're lying for the sake of being different.
The movie made $1.8 billion dollars worldwide. Someone had to like it.

Oh, I'm not doubting that a lot of people liked it. I'm sure many flocked to watch it multiple times.
But not me.
But it looks like E1 beat Spiderman. So.........
plus 4 out of 5 in the top 20. and 5 for 5 in the top 30. That's a tough act to follow.

Look at the movies on the list. Just goes to show u that people have nothing better to do than spend millions of $$$ on crap.
I have no problem saying I love Titanic. I think some people say it's not good because 1) they hate DiCaprio, 2) simple dialogues, and 3) they envy its success. I agree with the simple, less thoughtful dialogues in the movie, but the movie is really about the development of Kate Winslet's character trigged by DiCaprio's Jack Dawson (sadly, i remember his name).
Anyway, I hated both MIB and MIB2, but I'm sure a lot of people liked them for their silliness.

I still haven't seen it. (really)
Okay, I'll admit. I watched Titanic... ONCE though... and part of it on TV. It will also admit that it was "pretty good" but no where near my top 10 list.

Not really sure what you mean by Fox is independent film distributer.... 20th Century Fox is a worldwide media driven studio that distributes big name movies like all the latest Star Wars, ID4, half of Titanic. Fox also has an independent distributer named Fox Searchlight, who is responsible for independent films like One Hour Photo and The Good Girl. The highest grossing independent film is My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which is aimming towards the 200 million mark.
If you switch the opening dates of Spiderman and SW2 you would not have spiderman grossing nearly as much.
Spiderman came out at the perfect time when there were NO movies out (Scorpion King had come out two weeks earlier)
and thats about it. Put SW on that opening day and you don't see weekend records being broken but you see
spiderman not making as much two weeks later.
