Yep, October & November 2015 were abysmal in America.

 

People were waiting for Star Wars, I am convinced now it s true.

 

TFA is to box office what Starkiller base is to near by stars.

 

Sucks it dry.

I just realized I sent about 5-6 gifts to people and didn't order them with wrapping.

its interesting you mention John Carter. I believe that its flop in Feb of 2012 is what really gave the the "kick in the arse" to go out in get Star Wars.

Mendelson can choke on those "frontloaded" comments and articles. 

His articles this past week reminds of this gem of box office analysis from Prophets when Batman Begins opened:

Quote

Over the Friday-to-Sunday period of its opening, Batman Begins earned $46.9 million from a huge 3,858 venues, but if that estimate holds when actuals are released tomorrow, I'll eat my shirt.

So it's 1977 all over again. SW destroying records at an unheard-of rate.

ya its 2015's version of 1977. It looks much deferent, but the effect is essentially the same.

 

Trends TFA will start.

1. Return to practical effects, less CGI (god bless TFA for this)

2. Studious experimenting with launching tentpoles outside of traditional months. 

3. Bunch of scifi movies just got greenlit.

Crazy to say after only 4 days, but it's a lock to beat TPM admissions ($780m). That means we are dealing with at least the biggest ticket seller since Titanic. Enjoy this run. Going to be a long time before we see it again. 

 

I had TPM admissions estimated at 860-880M with TFA's current splits (remember its been running at a bit above 10 bucks a ticket so far, and it needs 84-85M admissions, though 3D should gradually decline so could go lower).  But I think that's looking pretty done as well.  

 

EDIT:  Avatar admissions should be topped at 760-780M depending on 3D splits.
