but the thing is

I didn't think ANYONE cared about Mortal Kombat anymore

 

Series like Mortal Kombat and Sonic that tried really hard to be "Cool" in the early 90s ended up aging pretty poorly, but there is still a ton of people who have very fond memories of these games. When there is a crossover with another series that has amazing popularity (Mario because of the DS/Wii’s popularity, DC Universe because of recent success with Superman and Batman movies) this adds a new found relevance to these series and their old fanbase becomes interested.

ok

but surely you mean Spider-Man.....superman returns was a flop commercially....lol

 

 

Its domestic box-office was  $200,081,192 (#89 All-Time)
Its worldwide box-office was $391,081,192 (#101 All-Time)
