Map it SPIDER-MAN ON THE BIG SCREEN
TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL

The Tribeca Film Festival will showcase the U.S. premiere in Queens, and also present, with Columbia Pictures, simultaneous screenings in the other four boroughs. These additional free advance screenings will be open to the public.

The Tribeca Film Festival prepares you for Spider-Man 3 the right way by reliving the first two films the way they were meant to be seen -- on the big screen. The Tribeca Film Festival features midnight screenings of Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2 as well as both films back-to-back on May 3 so you can create your own tripleheader by heading from the festival to the very first midnight shows of Spider-Man 3. Plus, delve behind the scenes with a fascinating panel featuring the likes of Spider-Man's very own Sandman, Thomas Hayden Church, Marvel Comics Editor in Chief Joe Quesada, and X-Men: The Last Stand screenwriter Zak Penn.. Special guests, giveaways and surprises await
