baumer Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 With Whats App, they charge you $1.00 a year to use it. This is after a free trial period of about a year or something. I am paid up until 2020....cost me a whole $5.00. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vc2002 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 (edited) These daily numbers of SW7 just dont makse sense. How could you break the OW by 40m and then have Avatar legs... I'll analyze it... with SCIENCE. I mean, with FORCE. Edited December 24, 2015 by vc2002 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clef Ment Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 4 minutes ago, Baumer Fett said: The reason it fell yesterday and has a chance to go up today is because usually films go up on discount Tuesday because there is room to go up. But with TFAS, every day is behaving like a Friday, people are seeing it every day so there is no uptick in attendance on Tuesday because it's already selling out every day like it was a Friday. So when you offer cheaper tickets, even though you are selling the same amount as Monday, the gross comes in less because the tickets aren't as expensive. Wednesday's numbers seems to support that theory somewhat. Just a theory. Interesting explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either move EP8 to December or switch Guardians 2 with Thor: Ragnarok Avatar 2 has the December 2017 release date already wrapped up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druv10 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Lol now everyone is on the billion bandwagon. This run is absolute nuts. It's behaving like Avatar except 2.5 times bigger. Our first movie since Titanic to have 100M admissions. Unbelievable to say the least. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I would say 32%, like Avatar. The only reason it might fall less is if theater owners decide to keep their theaters open later on Christmas Eve due to demand. But if they all close like normal, like after the 7pm show, then I think 32-35% is fair. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Cameron doesn't push the movie back for a 5th time. If Avatar 2 holds that date and is on schedule, then switching Thor 3 and GOTG 2 seems best. I don't think Avatar 2 comes anywhere near the original box office wise but it's still gonna be a beast and you don't want people to have to choose between it and EP8.

I was reading the China board, and it doesn't seem like there is much hype for it. Some don't think it will even make Top 15 of 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIK, the highest adjusted original run is going to be Titanic's $1.068B first run, since everything above that is films like Sound of Music and Jaws.
