  1. this friday, it's gonna get moved to less theaters and smaller halls
  2. Guess it depends, it's doing good money in markets like UK or Japan where it's running 20-25% behind TFA and I that's great. But it's really doing terrible compared to TFA in markets like China or Russia
  3. OUT OF TOUCH critics almost killed the buzz for this movie. Deserves way better reviews. Like any movie based on real life events is accurate. They review movies on their biases first merit second.
  4. Please don't act like they're not trying. There's a push with every movie to make it a thing in china, and it would be a thing if only the Chinese audiences iked TFA. With Rogue One they hired Donnie Yen, with this movie there's a big marketing blitz, premiers. They even have a special version of the movie where they introduce the characters with title cards as they appear.
  5. disney crying over china performance, they prob spend more on marketing there than they're gonna get
  6. is TLJ ever going to get reduction in theater number?
  7. lol what makes you think it's bootleg, 99% real [Mod edit: No bootleg material]
  8. Think this movie will have even worse WOM than Rogue One because of length, pacing and lack of action / not very exciting CGI heavy action but also many other things that will make almost no sense to audiences that haven't seen the OT. Don't know much about China box office , but Blade Runners opening weekend was 65% of it's total gross, wonder if TLJ will have similar percentage because of bad WOM
  9. wonder what will happen monday, flat to Rogue One, or below
  10. 700 OS? Isn't released in China yet but it looks like it will make about half of what TFA made, so around 60-70 million China.
  11. Knock yourself out. https://theintercept.com/2017/12/24/star-wars-last-jedi-class-politics/ I stopped at “The Last Jedi” is a “Star Wars” for populist times and a kind of remake of the 2016 Democratic presidential primary that sides firmly with the left.
  12. Nah Star Wars has been about archetypes as old as time. Even if people compared Sheev to Bush, his rise of power looks more like Ceasar or Hitler. puting in some Nazi imagery for the bad guys isn't really a political statement when everyone sees the Nazis as the bad guys.
  13. 16.6 million Tuesday overseas. The gap is growing, mostly because the performance in Germany, UK, and Japan looks more like TFA than Rogue One, the other markets more like Rogue One.
  14. Not only is there more interest in Jumanji, but they also have to give a bigger percentage of the ticket sales to disney, so it's like double loss, and it's the smallest theaters that gets hit the hardest by the 100 billion dollar corporation. Then I read on twitter how Last Jedi takes sides in the class war and it's the populist movie we need in the era of Trump. smh
  15. Is there any other big successful Christmas release that made less than three times opening weekend?
  16. It was a fun dumb movie meant for kids, it didn't pander directly to the critic class with unnecessary class war, veganism, and "toxic masculinity" bs. That gave it inflated critic score and at odds with the audience which is between 6-7.
  17. 350 rotten tomato blogger hugbox isn't universal praise imo, most of them have very similar views on everything, they follow each other on twitter then hang out in Star Wars themed parties after they were flown in by Disney where they circle jerk and shape each others opinion
