Guys I think Star Wars is going to make money
It won't though. Nobody cares.I can't wait to see what the excuses become when Avatar 2 out grosses TFA/Ep8.
Guys I think Star Wars is going to make money
Everyone went to see Avatar because we thought 3D was going to somehow make cinema better and we thought Cameron couldn't fail to make a compelling action scifi movie. Two huge assumptions right there. Fool me once.
You don't make that kind of money without an astounding amount of repeat viewers
I care not for SW or Avatar silliness. Whoever wins, no fucks will be given in the least bit.
$55M from just the pre shows? Well, well.
That isn't particularly surprising. We knew they had a fucking shitload of opening night presales.

There's really one common denominator between Titanic and ABADAR, the two biggest movies of all-time: a romantic subplot.
Star Wars has no such thing.
Therefore, Star Wars = bomba.
This post feels like a trap.There's really one common denominator between Titanic and ABADAR, the two biggest movies of all-time: a romantic subplot.

Only $231M? Weren't industry experts expecting $300M first weekend? What went wrong?
Wasn't a thing until ESB, which I believe is the lowest grosser of the OT.Han and leia?
They do, though IMO that's increasingly ridiculous (it made some sense when it was just midnight shows, but with shows starting as early as 7 it really doesn't).Well those count for Friday's totals right? Friday will be the first day a movie made over 100M in a single day, right?

Box office just tweeted 57 million last night. Holy shit.

Why are people taking that post seriously, exactly.
JW had a good 6 month hold on the record.
Star Wars is irrelevant, amirite?
I remember many of thos when it was announced that disney bought it.

In the case of EpVIII, it helps that it'll be the 40th anniversary of ANH's release. You can bet Disney wants to milk that synergy to infinityI'm not sure why they want to move it to summer again. It's going to do ridiculous numbers now, and I doubt it'll have much competition
I expect around the same or a little bit less.So will SW go over or under Furious 7's overseas haul?

Got the box office data everyone was waiting for:
Star Wars only got the 4th best day in Peru, with 165k admissions, behind a local movie, Furious 7 and Age of Ultron.
And then bought millions of blu-rays and dvds just to make sure one more time of coursepeople went back to see was it really as terrible as it seemed.
so are people now predicting this beats Avatar or what?
i always thought this was impossible.
