I'm actually more interested in RO than EP8 A SW movie with no Jedi or force powers being used at all sounds extremely interesting to me. I want to see how well they pull this off. Plus, the cast alone has me wanting to see it. Donnie Yeun YO!! Lol Still have to wonder about this idea of making films not directly or chronologically interconnected with the main films. The Marvel formula works so well because they make it obvious(sometimes painfully so) that each film follows each other and then leads into the next. It maintains interest. These side films will bring in fans like us, but I don't see GA caring much. Right now, they want to see the Ep 8 to find out what happens to the characters they fell in love with in this film. I'm not sure that within a year, they'll be willing to line up to see something basically unrelated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Has anyone thought the possibility that it actually decreases on Saturday? CALM DOWN. LET ME EXPLAIN. So Fandango claims Christmas day was the 3rd best selling day after previews and last Friday. (57M, 62M) With that said, with pre-sales and walk ups, lets say it actualls pulls off 60M+ on Christmas Day. I could see it staying flat or decreasing on Saturday. In the end it will balance out to about 160-175 area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were to follow my prediction 100% from Sunday on in terms of % increase/decrease it would make 1.27b with a 5.12 multiplier. I think it will continue to hold better, so a 5.5+ multiplayer is happening, with an outside shot at a 6.0+ multiplier with a BP nomination. So my new range is 1.27b-1.7b Edited December 24, 2015 by B J 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your starting point = $160m, BO.com's prediction = $163m... your high point = $175m, BO.com didn't gave a range (but didn't knew Wednesday details at the time of their prediction), BOM & Exhibitor say ~ $178m (without a range...) = $160m - $178.5m not that big of difference in a wax, especially to the narrower predictions of $163m - $175m (your high and BO.com's prediction) What interesting times to live in, if the predictions are all breaking the old 2nd WE record with ~ 50% over the old record...

Formulated like that it would be to simple to assume full days. Only a very few countries start Wednesday, more on Thursday, and still some are also releasing at Friday like in the US. Some countries have previews, some not... So no, 8 days too is wrong IMHO. It made it in 6 days plus the results made earlier in the countries with earlier releases.... or even more indepth formulted might be a possibility (IMHO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also they arguably put the most interesting of all their spin-off projects first so that helps 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
