The highly anticipated new release of “Wicked” this weekend is predicted to rake in substantial earnings at the box office. Given its popularity, it’s hardly surprising! Apart from the original musical and the source material from “The Wizard of Oz” being massively beloved, there’s a tidal wave of optimistic chatter surrounding “Wicked”. It may even challenge records to become one of the highest-grossing live-action musical films ever at the global box office. However, its worldwide success will be somewhat limited due to the distinctly American nature of the “Oz” mythology. Nonetheless, it’s safe to say that “Wicked” is destined to be a significant box-office triumph.

Shortly after, they encountered their first challenge of this new phase—an adversary typically powerless against them: the Clock King. In issue #17, he managed to catch them off guard and employed a novel ability against them: the power to probe through their memories.

Sam Raimi’s 2002 Spider-Man remains one of the best superhero movies in history, thanks to the director’s unique mix of campy fun and high emotional stakes. However, Spider-Man‘s aging like fine wine is also due to the crew’s commitment to practical effects.
