As I thought it to be true I thought: 2016, the year too many icons died. To me she is an icon. Including to have worked as a mechanic and e.g. as a Jeep driver for the army during WW II And for stories like: inviting the Saudi King Abdullah to a drive through her land / parc. He thought some driver... She drove. It is said he was a bit afraid... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porthos Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) For fans of Moana, take heart. Its late legs look to be the difference between Disney breaking the 3b DOM mark and not breaking it. Oh, to be sure, take any one movie away (including the powerhouse combos of TFA Jan+ and R1's Dec run), and it wouldn't stand a chance. But these 4m days that Moana is pulling in is all the difference right now. If it has been 'only' getting 2 million or 3 million days, it might have just missed. Of course, R1 could do really well on Fri and Sat, making those late legs a bit moot. But, for now at least, it's giving Disney quite a bit of cushion.

JB33 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) That Rogue One number is just about $345K behind Avatar for the 2nd best second Wednesday of all time. It'll have to settle for a VERY close 3rd. There is a considerable gap until the next best in this regard, which belongs to The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey ($11.39M).

I guess we should get used to these Star Wars December/early January numbers for the foreseeable future. Anyone think Disney will dare to move the Han Solo movie back to the mid December date alongside Avatar 2? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
