Sorry Wonder Woman. And over Beauty and the Beast. And what about over SW8 and be the biggest film a single territory in the whole year...

Tauren Warlock Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I have a feeling that SW8 won't drop that much from TFA. It could even outgross TFA. It has so many advantages right now that will make it a giant hit. For now, I say WW2 China dom under SW8 dom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same drop would put Star Wars 8 around the 600m mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POTUS 2020 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) IF it does 300m today then 1000m weekend and 1600m week is happening totaling 3640m. 50% drops going forward lands it at 5240m/$780m. -38% holds(possible)= 6040m/$898m SW7 936.66m IF PS indicating next fridays 3 releases will total 200m on OD. A bit of competition ahead. Edited August 3, 2017 by POTUS 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peludo Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I agree that SW8 has many factors to hold very well relative to SW7 (mainly Fisher's death). for the moment, I have it over $800m. But as @eXtacy says, Attack of the Clones dropped a lot. And probably the best film of the whole series, Empire Strikes Back, dropped over 30% relative to Star Wars too. It is really hard to keep the level of anticipation and hype that Star Wars, Phantom Menace and TFA have had. And if WW2 is able to manage, let's say, $750m I do not see impossible that it can win the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Chinese numbers start to become very close to US'... Let's hope someday foreign movies will benefit from it....Avatar 2 and Avengers 3 for example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking about $500m+ movies But yeah, $388m is obviously great, but still very rare. It's still hard for me to forget Moana's terrible BO there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
