Marek the Jedi Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 3 hours ago, Baumer Fett said: Some quick thoughts before I am off to my see family and friends in London Ontario..two hour drive...seeing SW at noon with my brother. This is a great time to be a movie lover and to love to track the box office. This is the bohemoth we all thought it could be, but never thought it would be this big When original predictions came out 2-3 years ago, Salacious Tree was basically told she was nuts for making the over Avatar thread. With a "smallish" multiplier for the holidays, it gets to 800. All of the Hobbits got at least a 3.5X over the holidays and they weren't exactly universally loved by fans. IMHO, 3.5X is the floor for TFA. We always knew Star Wars was enormous in North america, but it's proving to be equally big ion many regions in the world. The UK is doing huge business, so is Oz and many others. 2 billion looks very achievable, without China This has followed a similar pattern to TDK in a way. Sort of Avatar too, in terms of drops. This bodes well for a 30 million weekdays and then a huge boost on Friday and Saturday. It really should be close to 500 by the 27th. If anyone truly believes that this is missing 600, you don't follow the box office. 3.5X should be hit, but even if it were to only have a 3X..ala Jurassic World, it would do 750 I fucking love Star Wars and I love following the box office with all of you. giantcalbears, I'll expect my 25.00 to mailed out today. Off to London....take care all have a great time in London !! with family and friends !! Marek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Community Manager Water Bottle Posted December 21, 2015 Community Manager Share Posted December 21, 2015 For those who think Lucas got paid too little...I don't think Lucas cares. He got billions of dollars. He already had more more money than he knew what to do with and now? Now his whole family is pretty much set for the next couple generations. Like I don't think he's complaining. I don't think he's going "well I should have asked for more money!" I think he's really happy with the deal anyways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
