Edit: BOM updated its international figures: Total Lifetime Grosses Domestic: $531,511,829 49.1% + Foreign: $551,400,000 50.9% = Worldwide: $1,082,911,829 What’s OS total look to head toward now? Doesn’t look like it’ll have enough gas to get pass Ultron WW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the holiday boost is over on Thursday, TLJ will be lucky to pull RO numbers. I said before I thought it would get 600m domestic. Call that crazy if you want, but if it ends up at the lower end of the spectrum (615-625 or worse) I was closer to the mark than people projecting 700+. I'm still pessimistic about its future legs, they will be very short. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Craig Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 So does TLJ hit $600m this time next week or will it need the weekend frame of 1/12 to do it(where it passes it easily)? I have trouble buying the narrative from some camps that a film doing over $600m+ domestic is bad. And it's not done. It'll have MLK weekend as well to pad it's bottom line. Be in theaters, discount if that, through February. Is $700m domestic even off the table? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The remaining international markets should do something between 650-675m on their own, probably more to the upper end of that range. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think ballpark is more around 750M. A local comedy is breaking out big time in China. And with many other local releases still playing and Jumanji coming, I think China total gonna be closer to 50M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is $700m domestic even off the table? 700M would require TLJ to have really good legs from now on, which, based on its holds since opening, really doesnt seem likely. Only some crazy persons here would say any movie doing north of 600M is doing "bad". A lot of people here (including me) just had higher hopes for its domestic total. But any film getting in the Top 10 DOM all time is doing nothing short of amazing. We're just spoiled from TFA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are still in holiday season and especially yesterday is traditionally a very big day after a generally quiet NYD. I would say low 700s with China is a good If not slightly optimistic bet. Or were you saying 750m WITH China? That would make more sense but still optimistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's doing bad relative to expectations after the 220m opening weekend, which is all I believe the crazy persons are saying! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) 56 minutes ago, George Parr said: Sounds more like the very opposite to me, those people never really got Star Wars. Star Wars has always been about politics. Right from the get go. There are a ton of references in the original movies, from the obvious anti-fascist message of a rebellion fighting for freedom against an evil Empire, to a bunch of "backwater" beings defeating a technologically superior enemy (comparison to Vietnam). This is George Lucas we are talking about, he has always been a liberal who disagreed with certain political elites. in the end, the olds films had relatable themes to all while TLJ was not to the same level. A lot the themes in TLJ about politics just went over people's head or just made people roll their eyes at them. It seems to me some people (media) are defending the film solely for political reasons then the film itself.

I only mean a very small amount of people here that called TLJ a "flop" or 600M+ DOM "bad". There were some of them. I dont mean anyone who calls it "disappointing relative to expectations", which i think is the general consensus. Hell, i wanted 700M+ too , though i personally think its still doing great. I mean, its now the 6th highest-grossing movie of all time DOM unadjusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Don't believe for a second that anyone inside the walls in Burbank are even remotely disappointed with this film's gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aabattery Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 If this ends around 1.3B or so, I do believe it'll take the dubious honour or the biggest drop in actual money between sequels (ie not % wise). I *think* the current holder of that record is Alice 2, which dropped off by 726M. TLJ needs to hit 1.342B to not have that 'title.' I've been semi off the grid for the past few days so I'm not quite up to date on what it's looking at OS-wise. I think Avatar 2 has a good chance of dropping more than TLJ/Alice 2 did though. My current out-of-my-ass prediction for that is 1.85B WW, which would be a drop of 850M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it seems easy to drop 726m when you made $2.78 billion dollars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the crazy thing about Avatar. The sequel could literally make a billion less than the first and still be in the top 5 highest grossing films worldwide.
