global k-12 crisis?

Rogue One first Monday OS was $15.8m

Rogue One first Mon dom was $17.6m

 

TFA Mon OS $41.7m

TFA Mon dom $40.1m

 

TLJ Mon OS $22.2m

TLJ Mon Dom $21.8m

 

It all lines up more or less.

Was the schedule that different from TFA? That is a horrible drop. The weekend was only 20% down from TFA, but the Monday is almost 50% down? Was TFA's first Monday an international holiday?

No, it wasn't a holiday. TFA made $41.3m on its first Tuesday and $38.4m on Wednesday, so it was steady at about $40m for its first few weekdays. Thursday dropped to $20m because of Christmas Eve, but it was back up again at $39.4m, $37.7m, $36.7m from Mon-Wed of the subsequent week.

Yes, the schedule is drastically different, though no, it wasn't a holiday.

 

TFA had christmas eve fall on Thursday, so in many places christmas holidays had already started by Monday. This time around christmas eve falls on Sunday, which means that many places have the whole or much of the week go on as usual, with the holidays only starting with christmas itself.

Here's your answer. I lifted it up from a Deadline article:

 

While the Monday percentage is lower on Jedi, it’s worth bearing in mind that the calendar configuration this time around is slightly different. Force Awakens‘ first Monday was December 21, which saw parts of Germany on holiday and the UK and France both on full holiday. Yesterday, only parts of the UK were already off. France and Germany have not broken for the season yet. Also, importantly, on TFA, the second Friday was Christmas Day. This time, the holiday falls on a Monday which means that there is expected to be a fair bit of catch-up for Jedi next weekend.

 

In individual markets on Monday, the UK added $4.3M to continue leading at $41.7M. Germany added $2.1M for a $25.4M cume followed by France(+$1.2M/$20.1M cume), Australia (+$1.8M/$17.8M) and Japan (+$2.2M/$16.6M cume).

Deadline:

 

Star Wars: The Last Jedi stormed across the $500M global mark on Tuesday, adding a combined $42.1M across domestic and 54 overseas material markets. Yesterday’s turnstile action takes Luke, Leia and the newer recruits to $536.7M worldwide and $274.8M at the international box office. Offshore, they added $21.8M to rep 11% of the opening weekend, on par with Monday’s results.

 

Of the Top 5 offshore markets on Jedi, Germany, France and Australia saw Tuesday over Monday increases. The UK remained stable at a $4.3M day and continues to lead all cumes with $46M. Other key hubs were also steady or saw slight variations.

As noted below, the school holiday configuration is different from that of The Force Awakens in 2015 with fewer kids off this time around. TFA‘s first Monday and Tuesday each repped 17% of its record-breaking weekend. Same goes for Jedi‘s 11%.

 

Seems like a good hold, UK does great!

Disappointed in my country men, shouldn't let the mouse get away with The Force Awakens.

In Greece, it opened 27% lower than TFA. In case you're wondering, neither was record-breaking, but they opened to 137K and 100K admissions. A 100K-admissions opening in Greece is approx. the equivalent of a $100M opening in the US. Solid but nothing special. For more click here.

This is definitey the case in many Asian countries I would say. MAYbe Latin America 

At least in Chile it definitely is the case, people are not so hyped BUT most people liked TFA, except for hard-core fans.

The audience score on RT (54%) is not a good omen for Episode IX.

The audience score is utterly meaningless as it has already been confirmed that it has been forged. Not that the fanbase isn't divided to an extent, but that rt number just doesn't have anything to do with reality.

 

Not that it really matters anyway. Episode II sits at an audience score of 57%, and III still passed it easily.

Yes it has.

 

Unless you are of the conviction that people just claimed they did those things for the heck of it. There are identical reviews, heck there are even Star Wars reviews that somehow appeared under movies like The Shape of the Water and Paddington 2, but I guess that isn't proof for bots being at work, no, clearly people were just too stupid to realise which movie they were rating...

I don't understand...according to you bots trashed the movie, but why would they do that? Who wins something in that case?

A good argument. I've changed my mind now.

In all seriousness, it's quite literally impossible to definitively prove that the RT score has been forged. Even if people "admit" to botting the score, they could quite easily be simply lying, and they could quite easily be Star Wars fans who want to discredit the RT score posing as supposed "botters". And even if you assume they are legitimate, there's no way to know the extent to which they've influenced the score - their contribution could be irrelevant compared to the legitimate people that are rating The Last Jedi. It's nowhere near proof enough.

 

The only way to prove beyond all doubt that the RT score is forged would be if Rotten Tomatoes themselves came out and said there's been widespread botting of The Last Jedi's rating, which is the sole cause of the audience score being so low. In actuality, they've done the exact opposite: Rotten Tomatoes Says Its 55% 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' Audience Score Is Authentic
