    Sunday Update:

    Disney's Star Wars: The Force Awakens continued to lead the box office with ease this weekend with an estimated third weekend take of $88.3 million. That represented the largest third weekend gross of all-time, as The Force Awakens topped the previous $68.49 million record of Avatar by $19.81 million and 29 percent. Thanks in part to continued strong word of mouth and to the New Year's holiday, The Force Awakens was down a solid 41 percent from last weekend.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens has grossed a massive $740.27 million in 17 days of release. That already makes the film the second highest grossing film of all-time unadjusted domestically, as the film zoomed past the respective $658.67 million and $652.27 million lifetime grosses of Titanic and Jurassic World. Star Wars: The Force Awakens is now just $20.24 million away from surpassing the $760.51 million lifetime gross of Avatar to become the highest grossing film of all-time domestically. When adjusting for ticket price inflation, The Force Awakens is currently in 18th place on the all-time adjusted list. Star Wars: The Force Awakens is currently running 48 percent ahead of the $500.37 million 17-day take of Jurassic World and 110 percent ahead of the $352.11 million 17-day take of Avatar.

    IMAX grosses were responsible for an estimated $13.2 million of the overall weekend take for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. To date, The Force Awakens has grossed $98.2 million in IMAX domestically, which represents 13.3 percent on the film's total domestic gross.

    I know no one will be happy with but Ethan...but I watched ANH and ESB last night, and if theyre going to do a Han Solo spin-off, they have to go with...

     

    Ansel Eggcart. Dude is a splitting image of 70's Ford. And he does have a little charisma.

    Either Ansel, Dylan O'Brien or this guy from Age of Adaline.

    I don't see Star Wars getting a best picture nom, but it'll receive a handful of tech noms. It's too fictional and not realistic like Gravity and The Martian. A film of this genre needs to be a masterpiece like The Lord of The Rings or "Mad Max: Fury Road" to be considered for best picture. Harry Potter and the DH 2 with its critically acclaimed reviews, immense box office, and narrative that it's the final film in a worldwide beloved franchise couldn't get a nom when the best picture rules expanded to 10 nominees. Also, TFA is a sequel and the academy doesn't tend to award bp noms to sequels, unless it's a masterpiece. Mad Max: Fury Road is that special film this year with a strong possibility of a bp nom.

    I just looked it up, the Harry Potter film series didn't get a single Oscar, like wtf. The third, fourth and last one really deserved some awards.
