Film culture, especially popular film culture, moves in fits and starts. There’s a lot of money on the line, and the people in charge are responsible for making sure that money stays secure. If something works, Hollywood studios figure that it’ll work again. Audiences get used to seeing the things they like, and they’ll go see the fourth movie in a series even if they thought the third one was only okay. This column has covered a lot of boring, uninspired, formulaic drivel. But every once in a while, the energy changes, and the world feels it, like a sudden drop in barometric pressure.

Spider-Man 3 was the biggest part three in a year full of them
Spider-Man 3 was the biggest hit of the year, and
Shrek The Third was close behind it.
At World’s End came in at #4. Michael Bay’s first
Transformers earned about $10 million more, just barely edging Gore Verbinski’s third
Pirates adventure off of the podium. Outside North America,
At World’s End was 2007’s big winner.
Really, though, all of them were winners. By 2007, studios had learned that they could rely on name-value franchises. If an idea worked once, it would work again. All three of those part threes were fantastically expensive, but all of them were also hugely lucrative. These were big, effects-heavy adventures with movie stars and romantic subplots and comedy scenes, and they were familiar. Those three movies were merely the biggest part threes of the year; theaters were lousy with them in 2007, the year of

Tom Holland talks Spider-Man's mask: Doesn't it count as PPE?
"The Spider-Man mask does not count as PPE," the
Uncharted actor explained. "So, I have to wear two masks. And they have to just paint it out. No, that's not true. Obviously, when we are in scenes we have to take our masks off."
He went on to explain a blue and yellow light system that the Marvel movie utilized to ensure that all their actors and crew members remained safe while still shooting the latest Spider-Man movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
"When the blue light is on, the actors are allowed to take their masks off to obviously perform," said Holland. "When the yellow light comes on we have to put our masks back on and then leave the set so crew members can come on and move things around and do things that they need to do. At first, when they told me that system it sounded exhausting, but it works really well and there have been no problems so far."
