TFA’s Monday record may even bite the dust. This. Depending on how things work it could realistically be 40-42m next Monday but hard to predict when it's already playing so large. Either way it should increase around 80%+ from whatever Sundays number is which will be key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using 22 Thu, looking at 2006 imo : Fri 30 (+36%) Sat 33 (+10%) Sun 16 (-51.5%) // 79 3-day, -64% from 220 Mon 37 (+130%) // record Tue 38 (+3%) // record ; am guessing Tue will be bigger than Monday and both days combined will be around 75 = 154 5-day (79 FSS + 75 MT) 79 3-day may seem unrealistically low, but RO fell 59% in 2nd weekend despite being a non-sequel, even if a spin-off, and Christmas eve on Sunday will be hard on SW8. Saturday night itself may slow-down. EDIT: just to finish the weekdays, Wed 23 (-40%) Thu 21 (-10%) = 119 Mon-Thu (37 + 38 + 23 + 21) Edited December 19, 2017 by a2knet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again y'all are not grasping what a 25th on Monday will do to the box office next week. I have Christmas Day at around 40. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to kick a lot of butt next week with schools out and people taking vacation from work. $700m should be pretty much locked to happen. Rogue One type multiplier would get it over $750m. Question is whether it can beat that and make a push closer to $800m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlashMaster659 Posted December 19, 2017 Author Share Posted December 19, 2017 Doing the math on this gives you a $21.58M Monday estimate by DHD. http://deadline.com/2017/12/star-wars-the-last-jedi-first-week-overseas-international-box-office-results-1202229711/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, for people who follow box office a lot of people on this board sure hate looking at historical comps. Kids being out of school (and hence people being out of work with their kids) matters a ton. Look at the Monday drops from 2006 when the dates aligned. TLJ's drop is completely normal and actually better than Pursuit of Happyness which opened way lower and had tremendous legs (no, TLJ won't have anywhere near those legs). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuart360 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Well this isn't the orig trilogy days, i dont know how big Star Wars is with kids these days. The OW split would show that Star Wars is more for adults these days, the people who were kids in the orig trilogy days. Anyway after some of the stupid shit in this film, a $650mil total will suit me fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
