But it's also likely playing on 5,000 more screens than SM3 and 6,000 more than TDK. One wonders what they would have done with a 2015 screen count. Sm3 be the same as if it had spillover it was not apparent in future holds. TDK would do quite better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayhawk the Hutt Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Driver is going to have a great career, even if it's just starring in indie dramas. He's a terrific actor. But all of the main cast was hella charismatic and there is a good chance that multiple of them become movie stars. But no matter what, they have SW now.

I can't remember if you told me if you've seen a movie in Laser, but the 3D is the best around. There was some cool shots (one in particular got the crowd oohing and aahing), but it didn't add a ton. I saw Martian there but obviously no 3D or 4:3 scenes. Otherwise it was pretty awesome, brighter than their old projector. I might have to do this in both. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 So when Episode 8 decreases, no one will say it was due to bad WOM of episode 7. Yet ATOC dropped because Lucas messed up of Episode 1... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cochofles Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) Question for those of you who know: why would George Lucas renounce all of this completely? He could've easily still retained the rights to SW but allow JJ and the writers to steer the franchise into something separate from the PT. I mean, just because he has the rights doesn't mean that he cannot allow anyone else to build this new chapater of the SW saga. Not that he needs the money or anything, but couldn't he just let JJ do their thing while still owning the property? I am not saying, "OMG, why did George Lucas abandon us??"; I am just curious about his selling the property. Would it be such hard work for him just to sit back and rake in the more money while JJ did the heavy lifting?
