Judging by most of who's stanning for it.....at best it'll be Pikachu 2.0.

Revenge Of The Sith is better in almost every way than Attack Of The Clones and The Phantom Menace.

 

Yes, it was the only one of those three that had even a smidgen of the original trilogy's feel and spirit. Not much of it, but it had some, which means infinitely more than the the other two did.

I’m probably late but I think we should really only compare Endgame’s legs to the legs of all of the previous films that opened with $357m. 

 

Yes, "legs" means something if the opening week leaves you far from some kind of reasonable goal. Of course, since 99+% of all films open that way, that means legs are almost always relevant. But what if a film opens with $1B DOM and then "only" adds $500m to that? Those legs would be super short but it would be the #3 movie of all time even adjusted for inflation, so who cares? 

Endgame's opening was so utterly massive that legs became superfluous. It was born with wings so no need for them.

Saw it today. I liked the 1st 2. But the 3rd is much better. 

 

If you want action. This is movie for you.

"Where we are going we don't need legs" is what you are saying?
