MovieMan89 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 It's a huge number, but I will be pretty surprised if it doesn't go up past 60 at least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many theaters will not stay open after midnight. There are curfew laws and laws how late someone under 18 years old can work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXtacy Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I do wonder if Deadline is pulling numbers out of their ass or they actually have got information from a credible source. None of the other sites posting anything yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 THR says 50-55M, but it could climb to 60. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilmac Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Strong start to the sequel trilogy! JJ Abrams, Kasdan and co. did a fantastic job. Applause all around. It was by far my least favorite JW SW score but that was to be expected (given JW's decline in quality over the last 2 decades). This film was better than each of the prequels which is a big relief! Can't wait for Ep8! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkerthegreat Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 50 is decent, 55 is good, 60 is ideal. 60 puts my 250 predict into play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 60m would be insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 60m Would have been the OD record just 8 years ago, and we're now getting that potentially in previews?! Insanity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 J.J. Abrams' Star Wars: The Force Awakens is headed for a $50 to $55 million-plus opening at the North American box office, a record number that could climb as high as $60 million by morning. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/box-office-star-wars-force-849854 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eXtacy Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Yeah I don't see how the forums are going to function at all during peak hours tomorrow. Especially when a lot more frequent number updates happen. Is there anyway to temporarily improve it? Maybe disable pictures/backgrounds this weekend.

BoxOfficeZ Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Holy shit that preview number. I can believe it. the theaters here were absolutely insane. The lines went around the buildings several times. Plus it was impossible to find a parking space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
