Some random Spider-Man 3 Trivia from IMDB

I love trivia so just figured I'd share some cool information about the movie, thanks to IMDB. While the movie got mixed reviews, it obviously did very well in the box office, and I'm a huge fan of the score by Christopher Young. Check this out:

*At an estimated gross of $151M at the box-office, this movie holds the record for biggest single (opening) weekend of all time. (Pirates out, spiders in)

*Composer Christopher Young appears as the conductor and the guy standing next to the piano player at Mary Jane Watson's rehearsal scene.

*Composer Danny Elfman does not return to provide the musical score for this film, citing creative differences with director Sam Raimi over the previous film. Instead, Christopher Young composes the film's score. In December 2006, however, producer Grant Curtis announced that Elfman had begun collaborating with Young on the film's score music. Interestingly, Elfman turned down this film for Charlotte's Web (2006), which is about a spider who uses her talents to do good. (think Elfman regrets that decision?)

*During the celebration scene the band plays an alternate rendition of the "Spider-Man" (1967) TV show theme while Spider-Man ascends to the stage.

*While being in the Venom costume, Topher Grace didn't drink any water during his breaks because he couldn't use the bathroom with his costume on. (haha!)

*The release date for the film was set before Spider-Man 2 (2004) was even released. (crazy...that's 3 years in advance!)

*This film is reportedly the most expensive film ever made in U.S. dollars, with a budget of $250 million. (it even beat King Kong)
