Your new friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man has spun himself a $65 million opening weekend and $140 million in his first six days at US theatres.
The new origin story for the Marvel Comics web-slinger comes just five years after "Spider-Man 3," Tobey Maguire and director Sam Raimi's final movie in a series that shattered box-office records.
The previous weekend's No. 1 film, Universal's teddy-bear comedy "Ted," fell to second-place with $32.6 million, raising its domestic total to $120.2 million.
