RO and TROS will be very close in the amount added post-OW.
248 + 689 = 937 TFA (3.78x)
220 + 400 = 620 TLJ (2.82x)
177 + 378 = 555 TROS (3.13x)
155 + 377 = 532 RO (3.43x)
86 + 127 = 213 SOLO (2.48x)
This is just sad. The finale of the entire saga is being compared with a spin off/one off entry in terms of box office. I'm pretty sure Disney did not expect this when they bought Star Wars.

sure about that?
more then TLJ yes, sure I agree, more than TFA? NO WAY
The reason why I said that is because it's the end of the entire saga. 40 years and they've made that point known in their promotion for the film. Why is this film not making Endgame numbers? That was also marketed as a finale film.
The answer is very easy to understand but there's no reason at all that 5 years ago we'd be skimming by a billion after TFA.

People are just forgetting that TROS's opening weekend was quite frontloaded. The opening day ( Thursday + Friday ) is higher than both Saturday's and Sunday's numbers together. It's getting a boost for weekdays, thanks to the Holiday.
It's probably still making less than The Last Jedi's worldwide numbers. Yeah, it's very obvious this movie is making more than 1 billion worldwide, but Rogue One also did that. TROS is the finale of a 40 years old saga, so you guys shouldn't be celebrating that a finale is barely making the same as a spinoff. In fact, that's very concerning for this franchise.
Agree. This film because of it's marketing should be making as much if not more then TFA. It's the finale of the entire saga, barely skimming by a billion is not good.

I see Disney is out in full force saying basically SEE SEE PEOPLE ARE SEEING THE MOVIE IT'S NOT UNDERPERFORMING! IT'S NOT OKAY!
Even though it is.

And again, some here showcase the fact that they have no legitimate clue how movie making and the decision process works... what seems easy after the fact and through preconceived doesnt usually jive with how the system works.
Yet after Solo bombed look at what Disney decided to do. Imagine what 9 underperforming will do in that case.

Think the idea was to make Leia into a Luke in TROS but that could not be.
That was the idea. Carrie's movie was gonna be this one.

I must have missed the part where Knives Out targets Star Wars or it's fandom.

Audiences don't care who's directing what film unless it's Nolan, Spielberg, or Cameron.
Oh I promise you they will care about the person that made The Last Jedi returning to SW.
This is the same reaction we had for people saying oh shut up you'll watch 9.

Rian Johnson is 100 times more talented than either of them.
Doesn't matter. It's clear audiences did not forget The Last Jedi. So why would they support the trilogy of the man that made that film? Disney does not need the opening of a trilogy film underperforming and with Rian there's a risk it will just on that merit.

Filoni is not a good director
The overwhelming successes of Clone Wars, Rebels, and The Mandalorian beg to differ.

And the artist who designed Baby Yoda as CEO of Disney.
Filoni is beloved in the Star Wars community, he would be accepted over Rian Johnson. It's clear based on these numbers that audience did not forget The Last Jedi. So Rian Johnsons trilogy can potentially be a flop just on that merit.
-
Hopefully this will make Disney do what needs to be done. Cancel Rian's trilogy, give the Feige card to Jon. Have Filoni and Chow take over as directors going forward and plan a cohesive story arc. Not on the fly.

"The evil SW die hard fandom is just a vocal minority of die hard virgins in their basements it doesn't mean anything. People will go see a Star Wars movie just cause it's Star Wars."
...You sure about that chief?

Harry Potter 9 with the original cast is the only movie I think could legitimately come into spitting distance of the OW record in the next ten years.
The Cursed Child is absolute ass and no one wants to see that trash be made into a film.

do you recall the film the second prequel had to contend with? Because I do!
the third prequel had no such concerns.its all different circumstances.
It's Star Wars. There's no competition that's a threat to that brand name.
-
1. The film is the finale of the entire saga and has been marketed as such.
2. This is the finale of the trilogy. In the history of the Star Wars franchise never has the finale grossed less then the second film.
3. This is the first film in the entire saga that grosses less in it's opening then BOTH of the previous films.
How could people even say that 40 million is solid? Haven't many people on here been repeating that this film will increase from it's predecessors and how the vocal minority won't effect box office? How about now?

Over 180 seems certain and maybe over AOU if it does well.
Who the heck would have thought 5 years ago after TFA broke records this is where the finale of Star Wars would go in terms of box office, Age of Ultron. LMAO!
Anything below a 2 is not good for this franchise sorry. Other franchises would salivate at this number but Star Wars? Nope.

It's hard to tell with the GA but so far I doubt it has better legs. Seems like the most common reaction is "meh" not "holy shit that was amazing you have to see it".
My friend saw it last night and the theater erupted in applause at the beginning of the film but by the end of it, dead silence.

It will gross more than TLJ though imo, and thats the most important thing.
If it opens below The Last Jedi, it's not grossing more then it.

Disagree with me all you want id consider a 180M OW with the Holidays ahead a win. Remember TLJ may have opened with 40M more in that case but it also had brutal drops in its following run.
Seems you do not understand how this film was marketed and the history of the franchise at the box office. Anything below a 2 is not good at all. Disney will likely be massively disappointed. There's no reason this film should open below the first two films unless the "minority fandom menace" actually do have a pull and say in what they're saying.

which would be excellent.
Considering the carnage of Wednesday when the mixed reviews came out - this kind of number is real good. Then we’ll see how WOM goes.Anything below a 2 is not excellent whatsoever. This is the finale of a 40 year saga, nothing excuses this performing less then the previous 2 movies in the trilogy.
In Star Wars the third movie always performs better then the 2nd. This breaks that cycle, it's not good. No matter how you look at it.

I have a feeling Deadline is basing this on past performance. Boy this is going to be an interesting weekend.
Likewise I don't believe at all that this is getting $45 in previews. Maybe 39-40.

So far I've seen the audience RT be:
88%, 25 reviews88%, 42 reviews
88%, 342 reviews
88%, 1665 reviews
Now, obviously, that is statistically possible. But it's unlikely enough that I start to wonder if RT has some kind of glitch atm where the % isn't updating.
It's at 73% in total audience.

Literally 22 positive reviews and 3 negative reviews. Wait til 500 or so at least.
Actually it's at a 62% with all audience. The 88 is only for verified.

Oh I'm sure they expected that and if they didn't there idiots. The film that reunites the audience with the original characters, plus adding new ones to the story. Who wouldn't expect that to break records? What they did not expect is what TLJ would do to the value of the IP going forward.
