redfirebird2008 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 1 minute ago, somebody85 said: Agreed unless James comes up with some new super gimmick. The reason I want TFA to destroy the record is because it might bring back practical effects in the way that Avatar popularized 3D. It would also be awesome if other studios and film makers followed what Disney did with the marketing here (which is a huge reason for its success). Like stop showing the whole movie in the trailer and TV spots. Leave some mystery. I remember MI: Ghost Protocol literally showed everything. And that seems to be the case with a lot of big blockbusters lately. The status quo will not change. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing what Avatar did is way more impressive than TFA, which, without the SW brand, would be just another space adventure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Star Wars 1977 just magically became a hit by the grace of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DealWithIt Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 3 minutes ago, The Futurist said: A gimmick doesn't give you those holds and that bo run. Yeah, you all fail. You tried though. Don't forget the Blu-Ray sales. When Avatar 2 comes out and casually goes about destroying records like the first, I'm sure some excuse or ten will be made.

Cameron developed new technology for the industry in making Avatar, it was a massive gamble unlike SW7 which was about as clear of a slam dunk as you can get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2041758 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I wonder if Disney delays VIII and turns Star Wars into a Christmas staple after these numbers. Dec 15 - TFA Dec 16 - Rogue Dec 17 - VIII Dec 18 - Solo Dec 19 - IX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
