In the USA, it was sorcerors, almost everywhere else it was philosophers, IIRC.

All of those films make sense in their places, except Spiderman. Was it really that big?

Yah Spiderman was really that big.

But "Independence Day" with Will Smith give me a break. What is that doing on there?

Notice that Star Wars Episode Two isn't up there... I wonder why? [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img]

After TPM and Jar Jar Binks, Star Wars died.

They made the mistake of going up against Spidey. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

And I agree, ID4 shouldn't be there.

</font>[/QUOTE]I think going up against Spidey was the best thing that could've happened to it. If it faced no opposition, it would've been ridiculed many many times worse than it actually was.
