What, pray tell, is wrong with SW being 'just another franchise'.

 

See, that is where I draw a difference with you. As long as the films are very good to great, keep churning them out, I say.

 

(For the record, I think Lucasfilm has gone 3 for 3 on the 'very good'/'great' scale; you, I know, disagree. )

[Porthos]

BTW, if, IF, Solo does more than 400 DOM (or ever 425/450 DOM), then I shudder to think what SW films will do in the future. 

 

And, remember, I'm the charter member of the 'Solo will do less than 400/425 DOM' society.  But damn if TLJ's run giving me pause in thinking that it just might hit 400/425 after all.  

 

In fact, I tend to think Solo's run might be helped if it is as 'light' as I suspect it will be.  Be nice to have a lighter SW film after the last two 'heavy' ones.  A nice change of pace, if you will.

I expect SMH numbers for Solo at best.

 

Dr. Strange numbers at worst.

[MovieMan89]

If Solo hits 400 in that release spot and with everything else going against it, then I will agree that Disney has nothing to worry about with the annual releases for awhile. But I think sub 300 is more likely than 400.

What would have happened if SW8 and Avatar2 had clashed somehow? SW8 would have easily taken the ow despite taking a hit imo.

SW8 170 ow / 550 dom

Avatar2 100 ow / 400 dom

Cameron probably forced Disney to buy Fox just to ensure a situation like this would never happen.

So there were 53 males and 47 females in total watching the movie. Interesting that that translates to 25 of them beeing under 25.

*bookmarked in case Solo does 150/400 with 'only' a 2.67x multi*

Avatar 2 is going to be the most interesting upcoming film to watch what happens at the box office. There's about six different ways I see it going.

Not yet! I had to go where it's covered in all the colored lights yesterday. I'm thinking either PP3 or Money is the next movie I see, though it's all up in the air.

It's true there will be many many terrible predictions.

I won't call anything between 500-1b DOM or 2b-4b WW a "terrible" prediction.

Going to be a fun watch no matter how it goes. I’m not even gonna attempt a prediction, just kick back and watch the fireworks.

I dont think theres been a bigger wildcard than Avatar 2 in box office history. Anything from under 1,5B to over 3B is possible with the low- and high-ends beeing highly unlikely, but not impossible.
