It might beat the previous OW record in 2 days. Avengers and Spider-Man came close but it's been a long time since a movie actually did that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was plenty of reasoning behind our collective conservatism. What was the record for December before this? I've said it many times before, no one predicts phenomenons, they can only guess(or hope) correctly. Regardless, you were still amazing in that you stuck to your guns. Obi-Wan has taught you well. He didn't completely stick to his guns. Earlier today he was lowballing it after the $55/57m preview numbers came in. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 1 minute ago, Master Scottb said: I wonder if George Lucas is regretting selling this to Disney for $4 billion? This movie alone will probably gross $2b-$3b and make another $1b-$2b in merchandising, video games, blu-ray...ect. Doubt it, Lucas has made his fortune and wants to spend the rest of his money on philanthropy. Once you're a multi-billionnaire, perhaps more money is meaningless. And it's not like he was going to do anything with it anyway in terms of new movies. He still owns a massive stake in Disney and I think he still has some rights in the franchise (? could be wrong) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause Alvin was a popular cartoon when I was a kid, and we have kids now, so it plays on parent's nostalgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is DHD trolling everyone right now? Is this gonna make 90M today without previews? That is impossible. I am gonna set up my expectations for a good 120M OD. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Movies start anywhere from 7-10pm these days, most only go to midnight or 1am unless there's a lot of demand. thanks, good to know. We don't really have previews here in UK so I don't know much about this stuff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthdevidem01 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Aint Avatar 2 booked for December 2017? How would Ep VIII shift to that spot? Because even if domestically it'll trump avatar! Overseas it may get demolished in many markets (though not all) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
