There we were thinking people were just seeing it because it was a star war. You need to replace Kathleen Kennedy straight away then after that horrendous mistake having the wrong director and release date 

Oh, people were seeing it because it (Rogue One) was a Star Wars movie, but the December date helped tremendously inflate it. Even if you have a huge opening weekend, you're still gonna have fantastic legs in its release date as that is just par for the course when it comes to the holiday season (even The Last Jedi, which had poor legs for the holiday season's standards, still had a 2.8x multiplier, a pretty great if not outstanding number compared to the average blockbuster multipliers, especially considering that it was a direct sequel and it opened to 220 million.... imagine if it was a widely well recieved film instead of gigantically divisive). Solo probably would have at least sniffed 300 million DOM and 500-550 million WW if it had come out in December (not enough to not be a calamity, but enough to not go down as one of the biggest embarassments in box office history). Instead, it came out on Memorial Day - MD movies don't tend to have particularly fantastic legs as they burn a lot of demand on their 4 opening days; nevermind an unwanted anthology film from one of the most fan rush-friendly tentpole franchises of all time - and on top of every other negative factor around it, we got what we got.

 

Solo was a giant mistake and the SW brand is hurt right now, but trust me: Episode IX will still do great business. It'll likely still hit over 1 billion WW and 500 million DOM. If anything, it seems like a lot of people are curious to see where the main series goes after TLJ. And JJ Abrams back in the director's chair will excite at least the GA after the toxic divisiveness of TLJ.
