Olive Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Presales are notably trailing Mojin which opened on a weekday! Mojin made 161M on OD without 8.5M midnights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quigley Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) We can only hope for strong walk-ups. I don't mind though. It's already broken records everywhere else and will break $2 billion WW. There's literally nothing more one could have wished for. It would be ideal if it out-grossed Furious 7 overseas but no big deal if it doesn't. Edited January 5, 2016 by quigquag33 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elessar Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Wouldn't it be nice if it bombs hard in China, giving Titanic a chance to remain number 2 worldwide? Ah, but a fool's hope it is.... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet They thought that way probably because they read that anticipation was record high for TFA in the western press and also feel that TFA > FF7. I thought similarly after reading a Reuters article saying the social media resharing was twice that of FF7 -- then I came to BOT and was disabused of that notion by the informed Chinese posters here.
