Nothing can possibly overtake this after it crosses the $920+ mark. At least not for another 30 years of inflation. I hope I'm wrong and that cameron will prove me wrong, making a fantastic movie with avatar 2. Another long-waited, well-marketed & incredibly received SW movies could beat it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet TFA goes down by 2025, & it will be from a movie no one expects. Unless the theater biz due to mobile technology goes down hill but I think JW, TFA this year is proving plenty of people will go see a movie on the big screen still under the right circumstances.

XXRDJisDoctorDoom Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Just got home from my 4th viewing! Brought my mom, brother and his family of 3. My mother, who has never seen any Star Wars movie until tonight, said it was great and wants to see the next one (that surprised the hell out of me). She was like, "When does the next one come out?" and I said, "Well the sequel to this comes out in May 2017, but another Star Wars movie comes out next Christmas" and she said, "Oh what's that one going to be about??"..... Even at 65, you can be a new Star Wars fan."Hope is not lost today. It is found" 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

junkshop36 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Going to see it for the third time tomorrow. My sister took her kids the other day and my niece loved it so much she made her mother get her a full on Rey costume. She's been wearing it all day! lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druv10 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Avatar+32% is up to 277.6M now. 33.4M is the magic number for Friday. Anything above and SW7 continues to gain on 1B+ domestic milestone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiantCALBears Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) If there is one thing I've learned from following the BO, its that records you think are unbeatable or out of reach (non adjusted) seem to fall a lot quicker than expected. For a long time people thought Titanic wouldn't be beat for decades & it only took 12 years. Edited January 2, 2016 by GiantCALBears 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
