GirafficPark Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 In the UK some chains have increased prices just for TFA, so that might boost gross, but make it seem like its sold more tickets than it really has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some foreign countries will report in ticket sales. Would be great if US did that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You a movie is massive when half the conversation is about adjusting numbers and tickets sold. I guess that's all thats left to debate since TFA is crushing everything in site. Pretty insane to see any movie go over 100m tickets in today's market with great home theater, Netflix, Hulu, HBO Go, etc. The fact it's a sequel is mindblowing. Pretty strong proof of Star Wars' place in pop culture. Suck it, Excel. "No walkups" hahahahaha 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not great? it sold over 14 million tickets on it's second weekend (a record) and over 50 million tickets in 2 weeks. It will sell 70 million tickets in three weeks and finish with at least 80 million tickets. It's impresive and very impresive 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are people so dense about this? Did Titanic or TPM have to deal with Netflix? Smart Phones? Instant access to pirated copies of the movie? HDTV? Every era has different advantages and disadvantages. Everyone is so impressed by Gone With The Wind and the ticket sales, but it has literally nothing else to compete with. No tv, internet, HD Sports, streaming, travel options, etc... A few select radio stations and books were the competition, so of course it had massive sales. The reality is there is no fair way to compare each era, but it is fun either way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has nothing to do with 'lies' if you pick a mosaic stone and try to conclude out of it the complete picture, or better said 2 different pictures. yes, the USA has a bigger population, but still the per year ticket sales is declining since a long time Since 1999 were major changes in HV, media-able technology including 5.7" mobiles, other additional interests cinema has to compete to (like games) and tons of other details needed to include for a true comparison 2 minutes ago, spizzer said: Are you saying online fees are included in gross?
