I'm aware. ROGUE ONE last year fell 53.3% under the same circumstances. Don't you think TLJ, being a saga film, could have a slightly better drop? Like 48-50%?

 

It's possible. Sunday drop was slightly worse than Rogue One's percentage drop, even though Last Jedi should have spillover effects that help the daily holds at this point of the run. Maybe some spillover will help today. Just have to see how it goes.

So @ZeeSoh's and my preseason predictions for TLJ's opening weekend were within $10k of actuals.

I was within, like, 20 million and I'd much rather have $20M than $10k so really I won.

I think Aquaman will be good, and if it isn't then I'll actually be quite disappointed. 

Given that Wan has given WB a billion dollar franchise with The Conjuring, I suspect he's been given full reign on Aquaman. I really want to see how they envision Atlantis and also how Black Manta and Ocean Master look like in live action

Or a $0 (billion minus a billion) franchise

Really CNN? This is actually a story? Come on man.

Reddit/4chan are probably happy about making the news again.

Sorry to hear that. Have you seen it once or twice? @Christmas baumer disliked it after the first viewing, but thought it was a lot better after the 2nd. Maybe the same strategy could apply to you

2... was definitely a bit better the second time but I still wasn't a big fan

[TJHooker]

The way things are shaping up for TLJ, it certainly seems that BATB will remain highest grossing movie of the year from the looks of things...Unless TLJ pulls out some kind of magic trick and will be able to gross over 600m domestically (Although weekly drops should maintain within 40-45% approximately, which is unlikely at this point...), because it is clear as a day to me that international market is ridiculously weak for this movie for some odd reason! Congratulations BATB for highest grosser of 2017!...
