And probably with a fair number of children as well. How the heck did that happen? And with a lot fewer screens and showtimes. Assuming pretty much every showing sold out. Must have been insane demand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superduperm Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Random thought, but BOM should really add "Fastest to $550M" and "Fastest to $600M" to their list of records. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is a lot of ROTJ's first showings were of the 70mm Premium variety, commanding higher ticket prices than normal. Like if TFA was only released in 3D PLF variants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were all kinds of unanswered questions about Vader and who the other one was and so on.....the cliffhanger thing was brilliant. ROTJ was the most anticipated film in the history of movies imo. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree w/ all of that, it shouldn't be important however do you really see Saturday going $69.5m? There has to be a line where they'd say "let's move a few tickets around."

redfirebird2008 Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 (edited) 19 minutes ago, TalismanRing said: They under-predicted AOU by about $4m Not on TA2's Friday evening. "200 will happen and the record is in sight." Seems they learned a good lesson from that one. They have been very cautious ever since Friday evening for TFA.

I agree on the hype for ROTJ, but how long did it take for people to figure out how good ESB was? It had mixed reaction at first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiantCALBears Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Are you guys really going to let that WWR thread stand? Seems so ridiculous for fricking Star Wars to have one. So many other threads where that exact topic is being discussed plus spoilers potentially? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has to be a line where they'd say "let's move a few tickets around." So they predicted 200K under the record? I had thought they had predicted 500K over. They had no clue what the final number would be at the time so it looks like they deliberately predicted under the record. Likely because of their AOU estimate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have been insane demand. Houston Chronicle website had a cool thing on it a couple years ago for the 30th anniversary. Only 8 theaters in the Houston area were playing it. That's insane. And back then none of the theaters were 20+ screens like we see all over the major metro areas today. The word blockbuster truly meant people waiting hours around the block to see a movie because the theater and screen count was a joke at the time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
