Episode 3 I like. The other two are entertaining in spots, but could have been so much better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackspider Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 5 minutes ago, LinksterAC said: Word. I think this is the most likely outcome. That said, the Christmas Eve hold and soft Christmas Day bump are interesting. They suggest to me that there is a small possibility that TFA is basically maximizing revenue from its supply of showings. Christmas Eve tapered off because it ran out of shows in the evening, and Christmas Day saw only a "mild" bump because of constrained supply in the morning. That's a very rose colored theory, but it does somewhat explain the movie's odd behavior (at least in comparison to Avatar) over those two days. That theory might actually hold some merit. IMO TFA had to "slow down" relative to Avatar at some point or we'd be looking at a $2B+ domestic performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A type of projection? 1 hour ago, Salacious Tree Crumb said: Yeah, better version of regular digital IMAX 3D It's not necessarily IMAX... though most of the laser projectors installed so far are for IMAX venues. DAR, it basically offers much brighter/clearer projection, which is obviously a huge boon for 3D. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes even less sense than your earlier post 11 minutes ago, tokila said: BOM just said, 44mil. Where did the other 150 come from? They did a 3D overwork restauration and so on. Lots of interviews over the world = I am guessing also a 'bit' of advertising costs too. 5 minutes ago, druv10 Maul said: It was rereleased couple of years ago making 150M. Alone the overwork's cost where ~ $18m, 2 years work (wiki writes 60 weeks) incl. the 35mm film into 4k digital, also citation wiki: For the 3D release, Cameron opened up the Super 35 film and expanded the image of the film into a new aspect ratio, from 2:35:1 to 1:78:1, allowing the viewer to see more image on the top and bottom of the screen ... change. Critics reaction about the 3D = changed perception, better ratings... ww BO till then was ~$1.84b, the 3D version (2012) made ww $343.6m To me not the same as a simple re-release. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
