Rman823 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Well I guess I'm meeting friends tomorrow to catch a 11:30 A:M showing. I've never seen a Star Wars film before but the hype and being a part of a weekend like this has got me. I have already decided to get the original trilogy if I enjoy TFA. Considering the prequels reception I might wait and see with them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North of $130m? Ya think? With that type of matinee business it's more like north of $145m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having a hard time finding it in the article. It's in the Hollywood Reporters article.http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/box-office-star-wars-force-849854 "Friday's haul will include a record-breaking $57 million in Thursday night previews at the North American box office. Those with access to grosses say Force Awakens has already grossed north of $43 million in matinee earnings; they believe the movie will take in north of $130 million for the day." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
