Question is, when will Disney release an extended Darth Vader edition or whatever of TFA to get it past a billi?

If only Sony had just expanded it on MLK weekend, it would have probably cracked 200M within the next weekend and saved them the long slog of pushing it for the next month and a half.

"Christmas Day" could be huge with just the right schmaltz. 

 

Maybe that's WB's untitled PG-13 comedy for December 2017

The reason they didn't is that it went on digital the Friday after.

Makes all the more sense to expand it on MLK weekend then, final chance to see it in theaters before it goes to Digital/Home Video.

I think the main reason this weekend thread was an overall meh (note - just talking about the thread, not the box office gross or anything related) was because the numbers never fluctuated. We got a 75-80M range very early on Friday, a 58-60M range by afternoon on Saturday and the Sunday number didn't beat estimates. Only so long we can analyze a given set of numbers.

 

Looking at overperformer threads like Jurassic World, Deadpool or Jungle Book, the numbers keep going up and so does the enthusiasm in the thread participants.

 

Last year's Ultron thread or the MJ1 thread are examples where early estimates led to hilarious meltdowns. We spent a good 12 hours last year thinking we were going to see the first ever 100M OD before the 85M estimate came in at 3am Saturday Pacific Time leading to Noctis basically gloating for the next 10 pages. The MJ1 thread is in a league of its own though.

With that Sunday drop, I'm not sure it'll surpass AOU domestically anymore. PLOT TWIST!

Maybe Gary Marshall remix Halloween Next.
