‘Last Jedi’ Looking At $17M

[CoolioD1]

i'm actually getting excited to see not just Jumanji, but Juwomanji and Juchildrenji too.

[WrathOfHan]

That's close to my COCO comp (6.6M), and schools aren't out here yet. Hmm

I can't believe they won!

There are some who believe the Jake Kasdan-directed sequel could hit $9M, but what we’re working against today is that there aren’t as many kids off from school as last year when Universal/Illumination’s Sing made $11M on its first Wednesday and a five-day of $55.9M and six-day of $75.5M. Per ComScore, only 17% K-12 schools are off (Jumanji‘s ideal demo in the elementary school and middle school grades) versus last year’s 38%. Christmas day Monday is when the real action begins, so six day estimates are rough. Christmas Eve on a Sunday puts a real sinker into the three-day figures. Industry is now thinking low $50Ms for Jumanji by end of Christmas day. Dec. 8 sneaks for Jumanji for Amazon Prime members grossed $2M on Dec. 8 and that cash will be rolled into its total cume.

Thought Jumanji on Friday

[Valonqar]

The Rock and Kevin are unstoppable! 

[CJohn]

The Last Jedi. Bombing.

 

Jumanji looking at low 50M for the 6 day weekend which is good. The Greatest Showman... I guess it can do low 20M over the 6 day weekend.

Last Jedi drops harder than Rogue One but not badly compared to other Wednesday drops

[The Panda]

The Last Jedi is going to crash down to 5m by Friday!  That'll show Rian Johnson and Disney for messing with my Star Wars!

[YM!]

Whomst’ve changed my joke title?

[XO21]

TLJ $7.5m?!!?!? The flop is real

I legitimately don't understand how fans can be so angry at a Star Wars movie.

 

If it's a series I like, I'd be grateful for any sequel that comes my way.

Unless I'm mistaken, it's a softer drop than Rogue One. A $17.5M Wednesday represents a 13.6% drop for The Last Jedi, compared to Rogue One's 14.9% drop on its same Wednesday.

 

Peace,

Awful, its really time for the Jedi to end

Was just going to say this. I'm starting to use RO's box office behaviour as a barometer instead of hoping that TLJ will perform differently due to being a saga film (even though it has actually dropped worse than RO on both Monday and Tuesday). 

 

If that $17.5M number holds, it will be right in line with TO and perhaps an indication that jumps will start to be even better to compensate for the bigger Monday and Tuesday drops.

I read comments like "This movie ruined my childhood!" or "F*ck you Rian Johnson, you made a SW worse than AOTC!" or "Its the worst movie evaaarrrrr!!"

 

and i laugh these people need to grow up.
