ASM also didn't do as well on the box-office because Spider-Man 3 really turned people off to Spider-Man. That movie was complete shit. There was also the fact that The Dark Knight Rises released two weeks after ASM which probably cut into its profits a bit. Ted also released the week and it was a huge hit at the box office suprisingly.

It'll be interesting how it does with Gozilla releasing 2 weeks after it and X-Men: Days of Future Past releasing 3 weeks.

The audience also didn't feel the need for a reboot so soon after SM3...
Also Captain America: the Winter Soldier is releasing a month before.. but I think X-men will be hurt the most cause it may lead to Superhero-fatigue with CA, SM and the X-men releasing within 2 months for the more casual audience..

Very true about the fatigue. Most people expect more time than 3 years before a reboot is announced, especially since there were talks about Spider-Man 4. I agree with you that X-Men will probably be the most negatively impacted by big releases in a span of two months. Also, the more we hear about X-Men the less intriuging it becomes. The completely botched Quicksilver—he looks like he should be in a Spy Kids movie. People are also getting tired of Wolverine. Hugh Jackman is great but people want to see other characters get a chance. The Winter Soldier should be just fine and ASM will probably a bit of a dip because of Godzilla and X-Men.
