"Spider-Man was a major commercial success"
"Spider-Man became the highest-grossing superhero film of all time at the time of its release. It was eventually outgrossed in 2007 by Spider-Man 3."
"The film's U.S. television rights (Fox, TBS/TNT) were sold for $60 million. Related gross toy sales were $109 million. Its U.S. DVD revenue as of July 2004 stands at $338.8 million. Its U.S. VHS revenue as of July 2004 is $89.2 million."
And that are only the US numbers up to 2004, they sold the television rights in many other countries and sold DVDs, Blu-rays and even VHS-tapes in many other countries and several Blu-ray-versions in the US.
