guys it's the 7 th best preview number..... and 3 of them was twiligh.....

 

If you think ROgue one will be as frontloaded as Twilight omg lol..... and its sunday hold will be great.

 

I see no reason at all why it will make less than BVS or Civil war it's just non sense.

Man, this thread is so busy that I can barely read it.

Damn, I thought it would do well over 30. But I am still banking on plus 180 or higher. Everyone wants to see this. I think it was just not a huge must see Thursday night film. JW only did 18.5 million on previews. It did 11x that for OW. RO only needs to do 6x to get to 180. I think that feels very likely. I think it goes a lot higher than that.

$180m is dead sorry. I'd put money on it now.

Everyone panic!

I don't necessarily doubt you, but why are you making that conclusion. I am curious.

I'm gonna guess BvS is closer to the high end. Weather will effect it, not looking like a great weekend. TFA did have a pretty much a perfect weekend weather-wise (as perfect as one can get for mid-December at least) if I remember correctly. Though at this point, that would likely just increase legs.

I tend to agree.  I don't see how this goes higher than Batman v. Superman or CA3.  I think a number in that range is still possibly in play but that is almost certainly the high end.

It's not doing $151m after previews, that's virtually impossible.

This same thing could have been said for Fantastic Beasts like a month ago. 

That's one example. One example does not equal evidence.

Is it time to open a WWW thread?

This is straight bait, relax man. Expectations can't be discounted just because they seem optimistic. 

[misafeco]

I still hope it'll reach at least 150M.

No it doesn't.  But what are your counter examples?  This is uncharted territory since this is the first Star Wars film that is not part of the main series.  Why would this be more frontloaded than Twilight films? 

[FilmBuff]

FTF is going to be the number 1 movie of 2016. Baumer going to be pissed.

Why JW did nearly 190 after previews? Now we don't know how the public will go the wom  is begin to kick in (or not) via the social network the weather could have affect it the night... Personaly i will not attend a movie even SW if it's raining or cold as fuck i will wait the week end.

 

So we ll see.

[Fancyarcher]

Not a bad number. With a Star Wars films, even a high midnight number is considered disappointing to this forum.

[miketheavenger]

If it follows TFA's Preview/Day Ratio for Friday, Rogue One will make 61m. Can't see it going that low. Probably closer to 65m for about a 145-150m weekend IMO.

I mean JW did 189 after previews. CACW did over 151 million after previews. Why is that so crazy to think RO can do that?
