It's possible but it will be tough. Transformers 2 made $29,094,472 on its second day of release so it will have to top that. Certainly possible with how it has held this week but that is a pretty high bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POTUS 2020 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 7 minutes ago, CJ Ren said: It will do at most 26M tomorrow It is Christmas Eve so business won't be at the same level. you must remember its SW7, the normal drop rule will not apply. Avatar dropped 33% Movies skewing younger usually drop over 40% Many movies skewing older have dropped just 10-25% This sewed heavily over 25. Many people getting the day off or half day off for the first time this week. A 15-25% drop is in order. It has a very good shot at 30m+. I feel good about this one I will give a $10 BOTF gift certificate if doesn't clear $30m on the 24th to the first person that replies to this post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiriki Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 18 minutes ago, ForcedForward said: Yup, Disney got a steal at 2 billion, Lucas sold way way too cheap, forgetting merchandise which alone was probably worth 2 billion. I think Lucas film and all the rights to merchandise was worth double the 2 billion he got. The next 6 movies will at the minimum gross 9 billion worldwide over the next 6 years, add merchandise, theme park, it's mind boggling. He got 2B in cash 2B in stock (now worth about 2.7B). It was pretty clear when he sold it he was more concerned with the hands it was going into than the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They ended up getting Pixar, Lucas Films, and Marvel for under $15B Oh that makes me feel better, 4 billion is not bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 So it beats the Wednesday ODs of the likes of Return of the King, Transformers 3, and Despicable Me 2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiantCALBears Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Disney was so nice to schedule TFA on Friday the 18th, gives us an exact comparison of all the holidays. Avatar increased 2.2% on itsWednesday then fell 32.2% on XMas Eve. What are we expecting for TFA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it is basically following Avatar's first weekday holds as closely as possible, so 30-35% should be right. Who the hell knows at this point though?
