Alright, here's a scatterplot of almost all the December films on Box Office Mojo (excluding current openers, N=198), and the films from May to August ("summer", N=800). December films are shown with blue diamonds, summer films are shown with red squares.
*snip*
So so grateful for my statistics course I just completed that allowed me to actually understand this post .
I serioualy appreciate your willingness to organize this data. Rock on.

I don't totally agree with "50% of TFA's previews will equal 50% of TFA's OW". I understand the comparison, of course... However, I feel that Rogue One has less up-front demand. More people willing to wait until Friday or Saturday to see it.
Perhaps my my judgement is clouded because I am one of those individuals who was willing to wait.

I can't believe it's been a year since Force Awakens. Remember those daily threads? Goodness that was fun.
Looking forward to Rogue One and it's numbers!
Theaters in my area keep adding show times as sell outs happen.

I don't care for animation but as @Spaghetti so aptly pointed out they are on crack this year.
Will Ice Age keep it going?
And @Planodisney I apologize if I came off as condescending. It wasn't my intention.
If any movie would destroy the trend ... It would be Ice Age.

Just got home from a sold out 9:15 showing. Audience reaction was solid. Fantastic movie. Bravo, Pixar... Bravo.

Fantastic Monday number!! I really hope it holds well this weekend. I've been waiting way too long to see Shrek 2's domestic number go down. Hope FD has a good shot at it.

lancelot123 is my new favorite poster. Throwing out the best projections ever and tossing shade at peons with puny monitors.
I'm sorta rooting for Gods Not Dead 2 now.
GND2 over BvS!!!

Can we all just agree that "cult film" has a loose definition? Something like Star Wars obviously has quite broad mainstream appeal. However, within the fandom there is a very cultish element to it.
I agree with this

I wasn't here for a few weeks.
WOW at that Deadpool number! Was not expecting that!

SW has beenbasically matching TA this week. I'm guessing 8.5-9 M for the weekend.
-
It's impressive that TFA is still making money at all... Considering it's already grossed 880M.
-
Forgive me for I am new... Wouldn't a snow storm encourage people to go to movies? Since theaters are indoors. Or?

I realistically don't see SW land being done until 2020. Pandora was announced in early 2011 and will open a full 6 years later than that. Cars Land was announced in '07 I believe and opened in 2012. 5-6 years is Disney's typical time-frame for completing a newly announced land. Not only that, but SW land is the biggest undertaking they have ever done outside of an entirely new theme park, so even at a faster construction pace it could take just as long. Disney is terrible about constructing, they like to draw it out to cut costs. Granted I could see them maybe trying to rush it for a 2019 opening with IX's release, but even if they throw a ton of money at it that's probably the absolute earliest it can be finished.
From what I've read...they are pushing to have the one at Disneyland CA done before episode 9. I'm assuming Florida's will be on a similar schedule. These were the demands of Iger to Imagineering.

I'm hoping for a truly awesome 3D experience from this. I (unfortunately) was unable to see Avatar during its theatrical release. Though I've heard it was quite an amazing visual experience.
That at being said, I'll see Avatar 2 for that reason only. Hopefully the story is good too... I enjoyed Avatar.
Every time I bring up the fact that Avatar is having sequels, people always respond with "REALLY? Why!?" From those I've spoken to it's pretty unanimous that a sequel is completely unnecessary. Of course opinions may be different outside my relatively small sample group.

What does this mean for the up coming dailies? Will Star Wars maintain #1?
-
wow, that's quite a hold for Star Wars. Wasn't expecting that. The weekend should be interesting.
-
I've never seen a movie more than twice in theaters.... Until SW. Saw it 6 times! Each time was with a different group of friends or family members. One time was a work party I was paid to be at... I didn't go out of my way to see it 6 times, the opportunity simply arose 6 times... And I took each opportunity.
Most at of my friends have seen it at least twice.
Any movie that's at 800M in 4 weeks is getting repeat business. No use in arguing otherwise.

I could see SW7 having less than stellar legs from this point. It burned off such a huge demand in such a short period of time. It's hard to imagine it performing like "normal" from here on out. Because let's face it... Nothing about its first few weeks was normal. But we shall see...
Those first 2-3 weeks were nothing short of legendary... 40 million dailies! Those were the days.

I hadn't heard of this movie until tonight. My roommate wanted to see it... I had no idea what I was going to see.
WOW that was good. ? ?
