Spider-Man didn't just swing into theatres...he shattered records.
With Mike MIA, Jim calls Mark Mazrimas in from the golf course to break down one of the biggest movie weekends in recent memory. Together, they dig into the incredible opening of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, compare it to other modern box office juggernauts, and explore what these numbers say about today's moviegoing audience.
For years, many believed younger generations would never fully return to theatres after COVID. Instead, audiences continue to prove that when Hollywood delivers must-see movies, they show up in force. From blockbuster openings to recent industry trends, Jim and Mark celebrate the resilience of the theatrical experience and discuss why the future of moviegoing looks brighter than ever.
