Jandrew Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 If reactions in the threads is a problem, why don't you guys just pin the RTM thread in here? Or atleast the specific movie thread for the time being? ex. this weekend you could have the SW7 RTM thread here. March 25, have BVS, May 6 its CW (I aint tryna get spoiled with Spiderman), and July 22-24 we do King Arthur. I think something like that could work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a great start than. Does anyone know when Australia and UK midnights come out? Assuming it set the record in both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozen Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I don't know when they come out but I don't think BO or BOM will report them until tomorrow. Maybe some UK person on here can find them earlier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China has it's own schedule and Hollywood works around that. Greece has a potentially huge local movie opening today, and the distributor tried to protect it from competition since the franchise was never THAT big here. India?

India has two massive domestic releases that will probably be combining for the biggest weekend/week ever releasing tonight/tomorrow. TFA would be crushed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayhawk the Hutt Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) I'm having trouble copying the tweet, but in the international thread, someone posted a tweet reporting that Fandango says TFA has now sold more tickets on the website than any other movie over it's entire run. Holy shit... EDIT- Here's the tweet: Edited December 17, 2015 by Jayhawk the Hutt 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't matter, even if it happens, he'll resort to adjusted numbers or something. He'll use China as an excuse, the storm of 2010, the sun that shone too bright in january of 2011, anything to downplay Cameron not having the number one film. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In GoT terms, Titanic was Robert Baratheon, and Avatar was Joffrey/Tommen Baratheon. And now Daenerys Targaryen (Star Wars) is finally flying in on her dragons to take what is rightfully hers.

#ED Posted December 17, 2015 Author Share Posted December 17, 2015 Theater count is currently at 4100+. Awesome. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted December 17, 2015 Author Share Posted December 17, 2015 The Force Awakens was already breaking records before a single frame was exhibited. Disney originally estimated it would open in 3,900 theaters, that total has since jumped to 4,134, a record number of theaters for a December opening. It has also broken advanced ticket sales with $100+ million (approximately $55 million of that attributed to the film's opening weekend), besting the $25 million set by previous record holder The Dark Knight Rises in 2012. -BOM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
