I joined the forum as a lurker during The Avengers run. I started posting during Frozen's run. I also want to mention that we have a strict spoiler policy on the forums... even stricter for TFA.

Well ROTK sold more tickets than all the prequels except for TPM. Problem was, those movies were terrible and couldn't explode like this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd sure like to see his "source" from Mojo that is predicting $560-600 million domestic total. Edited December 24, 2015 by KP1025 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggestgeekever Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 5 minutes ago, The Panda Menace said: You mean... The Force Awakens would have pulled more in its first three weekdays than MJ2s OW? Or, if it makes $37.4M or above today, TFA's first three weekdays will be bigger than Spider-Man 1's OW. That's just a completely surreal thought for a long time BO follower like me lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 To be fair to Kal, hes not completely wrong. It is possible. Every theater in America could spontaneously combust when TFA reaches $560...and there ya have it. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe mojo is the authority. Lowest 550to 600plus million. Courts adjourned. Slim chance for 700 to 800 Kal isn't handling this well at all. It has turned his brain to mush. He has thrown all logic out the door. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Safe to say, Disney will move SW8 to Dec 2017 and subsequent sequels to December as well. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackspider Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 (edited) Despite the huge backlash, the PT still easily pulled in more tickets than any other franchise trilogy, other than the OT of course. Goes to show the power Star Wars has. Star Wars PT: 198m Spider-Man: 180m LOTR: 174m Shrek: 165m TDK: 164m POTC: 160m Edited December 24, 2015 by blackspider 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could own Christmas for years. Instead of watching 'It’s a Wonderful Life' for Christmas people would annually go see Star Wars. However... as we saw with the early DVD release of Frozen both here and in Japan it's hard to stop a corporation decision that is already in motion. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killimano3 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Avatars 5-day was 109.5M. It eventually ended up at 749.8M which was 14.6% of it's total Following that trajectory we can determine that Star Wars will end up at 2,228.8M or roughly 2.2B It is confirmed 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but if SW7 makes 2B+ and 1B+ domestic then no question in my mind that Disney will move them, no question money talks and remember if SW8 drops a lot in May, some heads are gonna roll. If it's not broken why fix it should be Disney's motto. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B J Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 final wednesday tally: sold out: 17 showings: 62 first day with less than 20 sellouts but still going strong. A clear drop off from the comparably equal business of monday and tuesday. early thursday tally sold out: 12 showings: 47 strong start, I think 20+ sellouts are in store but that's mainly due to the drop in showings on Christmas Eve. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wants GOG2 to move to August 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
