    BMW Owners Furious Over ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ In-Car Ad

    It looks like even your vehicle needs an ad blocker now! Recently, angry BMW owners took to social media to share videos claiming they received a pop-up ad for Marvel’s “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” on their in-car screens.

    BMW clarified that the animation does not autoplay. Owners were taken aback by this news, considering BMW is renowned for its luxury vehicles, which can cost from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars. The backlash intensified as owners accused the German automaker of using their personal cars as marketing platforms.

    One owner posted on the German automaker’s subreddit, sharing a video of the Spider-Man ad and commenting, “Received this commercial in my car today as part of the Spider-Man – Brand New Day campaign.”

    Responses flooded in, with one user saying, “Spending $50,000–$100,000 on a car and still getting ads… guess we need adblockers for cars now?” Another joked, “Wait until the new U2 album OTA update arrives!”

    This development came despite BMW’s assurances that their in-car screens would not be used for advertising. According to The New York Post, owners encountered a banner every time the vehicle was started. Clicking on the banner led to a 19-second, full-screen ad featuring dynamic lighting, animation, and music, suggesting this was more than just a minor experiment by the automaker. The ad, which launched on July 27, is scheduled to run until August 10 in BMW models produced after July 2020.

    Digital Phablet – Spider-Man: Brand New Day Breaks Box Office Records in Previews

    When it comes to early box office success this weekend, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is showing no signs of slowing down. Beginning tonight, the Sony/Marvel Studios collaboration is expected to outperform the preview figures of the previous 2021 installment, Spider-Man: No Way Home, which pulled in $50 million during its preview run. This surge aligns with the reported $80 million in pre-sale tickets for the film starring Tom Holland and Zendaya, part of an overall $225 million production budget.

    Record-Breaking Previews

    No Way Home achieved the third-highest previews ever, starting at 3 p.m. on its opening Thursday, trailing only 2019’s Avengers: Endgame, which earned $60 million (with a 6 p.m. start), and 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which garnered $57 million during its Thursday night preview. With over $50 million in previews, Brand New Day has secured the third-best preview total in North America, surpassing all previous Sony movies and marking the strongest previews post-COVID.

    The film, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, premiered today at noon, with a special Prime Video screening for members scheduled for Wednesday night. Some sources suggest that the preview revenue for tonight’s Brand New Day could have exceeded the record set by Avengers: Endgame. Official numbers will be available tomorrow morning.

    Comparison with Previous Blockbusters

    No Way Home previews represented about 41% of its opening-day total of $121.96 million, leading to a second-largest opening day in U.S. box office history, with a total reaching $260.1 million, just behind Endgame‘s record of $357.1 million. Similarly, The Force Awakens‘ previews accounted for 48% of its first-day gross of $119.1 million, with a three-day opening of nearly $248 million—once the North American record but now ranked fourth.

    While NRG estimates a modest domestic opening of $195 million for Brand New Day, industry insiders and tracking firms like Greenlight Analytics predict much higher numbers, possibly ranging from $260 million to $300 million.

    Premier Reactions and Critical Acclaim

    Brand New Day is already boasting the highest audience score among all nine live-action Spider-Man films—an impressive 98% on Rotten Tomatoes. Critical reviews are equally strong, with a certified fresh rating of 90%, just shy of No Way Home‘s 93%.

    In terms of distribution also notable is that this film has achieved its remarkable success without relying on IMAX screens—an approach the Barbie movie adopted three years ago when Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer made significant inroads with IMAX.

    Some entertainment analysts argue that providing detailed preview start times and seasonal context could help refine box office forecasts. Still, the magnitude of this opening is noteworthy—outpacing previous COVID-era record-holder Deadpool’s $38.5 million preview from July two years ago.

    Box Office Outlook

    While early indicators suggest a solid start, actual performance may surpass estimates. Industry experts initially projected a low domestic opening of around $195 million, but other data sources are more optimistic, forecasting totals between $260 million and $300 million.

    Additional Highlights

    Spider-Man: Brand New Day has earned the highest audience approval among all live-action Spider-Man movies, with a near-perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes. Its critical reception is equally favorable, reflecting strong anticipation and positive reactions from viewers.

    In summary, Brand New Day is making history with extraordinary previews, setting new benchmarks, and demonstrating that Spider-Man still has immense box office appeal—without the need for IMAX screens. The coming days will reveal just how high it can climb.
