Speaking of reboots, Spider-Man: Homecoming has now made more in North America than Man of Steel ($291 million in 2013), meaning it is the biggest-grossing straight reboot ever in North America

Now the biggest-grossing straight reboot in global terms remains The Amazing Spider-Man with $757m in 2012, a figure that Spider-Man: Homecoming may well reach (it still has China and Japan on the docket). In terms of being a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, it is bigger domestically than any MCU picture save for the last five May kick-off movies (The Avengers, Iron Man 3, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Captain America: Civil War and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2) and the first Guardians of the Galaxy ($333m).

Once it gets past Captain America: The Winter Soldier ($714 million in 2014), the Tom Holland/Michael Keaton actioner will be the sixth-biggest MCU title behind the aforementioned five titles. It’s possible that the pic will end up past the first Guardians of the Galaxy ($773m in 2014), but that’s a long way off. So yeah, at a glance Spider-Man: Homecoming is probably looking at a domestic total of around $315-$320m, which is a big win on a $175m budget. It’s going to be the third-biggest movie of the summer in North America, behind Guardians 2 ($388m) and Wonder Woman ($399m-and-counting).

I dont trust anyone but myself
 
What's the difference between reboot and remake? And BatB has been done in live-action many times starting all the way back in 1946. Last year's The Jungle Book also beat Spidey and that wasn't the first live-action JB either.
 
Remake is making an old movie again i think.
Reboot means using same characters and settings in a new plot or a different style?

Homecoming is not a remake of the first spidey and amazing spiderman wasnt a remake either because they changed villains and plot points.

Beauty and jungle book follow the same story, i think thats the difference

I see what you're saying except that you've got movies like John Carpenter's The Thing that change almost everything and have still always been called "remakes."

It would make sense going forward if everyone could agree that remake equals same characters same events and reboot equals same characters different events. *shrugs*

Then films like BatB and King Kong would be remakes and The Thing, True Lies and all the superhero flicks would be reboots. But as of now people both in and out of the industry seem to use the two terms interchangeably with "reboot" being the modern default for the most part.

EDIT: Now that I think of it "reboot" seems to simply mean "remake that will kickstart a full franchise" whereas a "remake" refers to a one and done. So PJ's Kong was a remake and Skull Island was a reboot.

I guess it is because the term reboot was never used before last ten years, but the thing counts as a reboot i think.

Reboot means creating a brand new story without using the plot of the first movie.

The jason voorhees movie is kind of a reboot because they combined movies 1 2 and 3 while making a new storyline with jason using tunnels to move around and kidnapping a girl.
 
See the edit I added to my last post crows. Do you agree? That seems to fall in line with your "in the last 10 years" parameter since films in the last decade have become franchise and connected universe oriented like never before.

You are making me wonder if remakes have ever gotten sequels. I cant really think if they have. I guess u are right, remakes are one offs.
