ITS OVER STAR WARS IS DONE
>>63781465
Did they really think they could beat Jim?
>Anyone gives a shit about turdworlders
It will be number 1 in the US and most of Western Yurop
>>63781465
It will pass the 3 billion (current dollars) mark.
Screenshot this so you can remember how wrong you were later on.
>>63781465
Reddit is fucking devastated. It's hilarious
>>63781490

It will struggle to beat Jurassic WW. Acreencap that.

Nice try, reddit.
It won't be because there's not a solid Chinese market for Star Wars, and they hate having black people anywhere in the main cast. Reading the comments in their version of IMDB and YouTube reveals hilarious racism the likes of which most have never seen before.
>>63781632
This.
In the midst of reviews and hype, I was expecting shit like ''biggest pre-opening in movie history'' or some shit.
We still have this weekend, tho. That's when we'll see if it'll be a powerhouse or not
>>63781644
>is hated by reddit
Why? I don't go there so wouldn't know.
>>63781708
Sorry
Itbis going to fail overseas. Screencap this.
>>63781750
>In the midst of reviews and hype, I was expecting shit like ''biggest pre-opening in movie history'' or some shit.
...It's tracking to have the biggest previews in history at 50-55 million
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>>63781784
It also had the biggest opening day in Britain, surpassing Spectre and Deathly Hollows 2
>>63781465
Not going to bother reading because I've said for a long time now it won't top Jurassic World, so it definitely won't top Avatar which I assume the article talks about. 1.3 billion tops.
>>63781752
because their pseudo intelectual agenda tells them James' films are not intelectual
>>63781906

They're not. But neither are Star Wars films.

I think you may be clinically retarded.
>>63782059
Do you not know how much it made? The 3rd highest grossing film of all time you faggot

>it won't top Jurassic World
>There are people this retarded posting on the same board as me.
>>63782086
Not that guy but there is far more nostalgia driven hype behind Star Wars than Jurassic World and considering the movie just came out and it's already breaking pre-sale and opening records, I think it's fairly safe to say that because word of mouth is good for it, it'll be the highest grossing movie of the year.
How can a jew be this dumb?
>>63782135
And it will be 4th highest grossing movie of all time once TFA finishes it's run. It's already tracking to be the biggest oppening of all time.
It won't top Jurassic World because the ching chongs fucking loved Jurassic World and they no likey star wars + it's the month where foreign imports are banned there so they can't even watch a non-bootlegged version until next year.
>>63781465
>Goldman
>Article says that Star Wars won't beat Titanic or Avatar when adjusted for inflation
>Doesn't even acknowledge that adjusted for inflation Titanic and Avatar are not number 1
what the fuck
>>63782208
Seriously this.
>good reviews
>good word of mouth
>massive nostalgia factor
>pre-sale and opening records
I thought Jews were supposed to be good with money?
>>63781465
It won't even beat Jurassic World.
>>63781490
>we'll never beat titanic, nobody can
>>63782225
There's Chinese trailers, autismo
>tfw the spoilers we spammed to the normies ruined it for most people
WE DID IT BOYS
>>63782086
>The 3rd highest grossing film
Da fuck? Why do people go for this obvious nostalgia-bait so readily?
>yfw Avatar 2 will go head to head with Star Wars 8
>>63782315

>We
There's no way you're over 15
>>63781465
There's only one man who can beat James Cameron and his name....is James Cameron
>>63781929
But you aren't allowed to criticize Star Wars

Thanks for reminding me that I'm still pissed off that best character didn't win in Avatar
>>63782362
Watch Avatar 2 move its release date.
Seriously, screenshot this.
>>63781465
Daily reminder to all Disney drones.
>>63782225
>until next year
nice newspeak there
>>63782362
>>63782425
Actually never mind, Episode VIII opens in May 2017.
>>63782475
Really? Damn. Thought it'd be released in December
>>63782430
How much money are those worth?
I doubt he could buy Marvel or even DC with both of them
>>63782362
Avatar sucked. If you guys really want try and hold that up as "intellectual" it just just shows what a bunch of contrarian idiots you are.
Star wars isn't intellectual either but at least its fun. Blue Pocahontas in space was retarded.
>>63782475
>yfw Jim moves it to the same date
>>63781465
>Goldman
Oy vey, these shekels won't be enough
they'll have a record opening weekend
the most important part of highest grossing is staying power
>>63782475
Spider-Man will be the biggest movie of 2017
>>63782511
given the good reviews and word of mouth I'd say that's a given
>>63782307
He's right, there's no established audience for Star Wars in China because the originals premiered when the government banned all western media.
They tried re-releasing them in the 90s and again recently but the audience reception was tepid (the prequels were released at the same time as they were domestically however).
It'll pull solid numbers over there, but well below Jurassic World and the capeshit they seem to love. If it were allowed to screen there we would have gotten extremely early telesyncs/screeners like we did with Jurassic World / Avengers, etc as most massive blockbusters get a China release first nowadays.

Only Jim can beat Jim.
>>63782509
He chose not to invest in Disney.
No he's bitter.
>>63782535
staying power isn't just good reviews and word of mouth
little girls made titanic the highest grossing at the time cause they saw that shit over and over
I haven't seen Force Awaken yet so I don't know if its rewatchable
>can't even beat blue cats in space
Abrams you hack.
>>63782422
hes goonna be back though. cloning m8. and because there are defo gonna be more than one sequel, they can afford to let him win in the next one.
but who am I kiddin - itll be directed by JJ abrams and be a carboncopy of the first one, so expect him to die, again.
>>63782567
Them who made Avatar highest grossin movie of all time?
>>63782536
You have no fucking clue guy.
The Chinese theater audience is 10 fold what it was in 2005 and you want to compare JW with the prequels?
>>63782597
this is confirmed btw. stephen lang is in both A2+A3

>>63782657
It won't happen.unfortunately
>>63782657
>$188,100,000,000 (+. based on market cap)
no
>>63782627
I'm not your guy.
>>63781745
Combined with the fact that star wars holding no nostalgia value to them and how TFA is a pretty shitty movie overall, by the time it opens next year in china, most chinese would skip it to watch other shit.
>>63782785
and china is the piracy centre of the universe, so why would they bother paying to watch it when there will be a torrent a click away?
>>63782657
>own both Marvel and Star Wars
>go bankrupt
kek
>>63782785
>>63782822
It starred a Chinese general and ace pilot. Its making money in China whether you like it or not.
>>63782879
it will make money but I dont think enough to make it beat Titanic or Avatar. I was gonna bet on it but I reevaluated my view and didnt, and I have a gambling problem.
>>63782294
Domestically, JW was about $6 million away from beating Titanic. though that's not counting inflation
>>63781490
Bless the person that made this, is too funny.
Cameron sold his soul to the devil, though.
>they said it would beat Titanic
>they said it would beat Avatar

>>63781490
Who keeps making these? Cameron right?
>>63783266
But he literally makes capeshot-like movies...
>>63783213
So its 2 weeks and you're all like

The smoke is filling your lungs, Avatard...
but I know you'll asphyxiate before acknowledging the house of Cameron is burning before you.
>>63783364
>>TFA won't even beat the prequels
>there are people who don't think it is going to make 3 billion
You hipsters are getting desperate.
>expect to make 2 billion dollars and dozens more with the subsequent sequels to your movie
>invest only $200m
Or are the $1.8+ going to marketing? Why are jews such fucking jews? With the amount of money this movie is expected to earn they could have built actual jet fighters that looked like spaceships, or at least tried to make seamless cgi instead of the videogame shit we get, and hired Spielberg, Fincher and whoever the fuck they wanted.
>>63781490
thanks for reminding me Avatar was a pretty great action movie.
>>63782225
JEWRACIST PARK WAS NEVER MY SCENE

Established auteurs don't do sequels to other people's movies
>>63782004
Except you know, Avatar
>>63783598
They are going to make 3 billion anon.
>>63782362
Disney will probably cancel it after the flop of TFA
I don't see myself going to see it more than once in theaters, I saw Avatar twice but that's just because there was so much going on.
>>63781644
I really don't understand the whole "30 fps feels cinematic". I haven't seen Hobbit so I can't really judge that but I have no doubt in my mind there's a way to make it look good. I think it's more to do with the fact that you won't be able to get away with sloppy sequences anymore because cutting frames when something is running at 30 is much less noticeable then if it's running at 2 or 4 times that.
>>63782383
I doubt anyone who takes pleasure in spoiling things for others can be considered an adult. Manchild at best.
>>63783307
What are you talking about?
![maxresdefault[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/wAFanJ8.jpg "maxresdefault[1].jpg")
>>63783772
Are you saying that it was dense?
>>63783436
>>63783557
Even if the franchise has peaked, which it probably has I'm sure there's still plenty of money to be made from it.
>>63783982
Yeah in terms of the shots I mean, especially with the battle scenes there was a lot going on in the background, and it all looked good. But maybe TFA will be the same.
>>63782163
this doesn't mean shit it's just front end sales. It's not like they can double the seating everywhere opening day somehow.
>>63783985
Peaked?
Millenials, open your fucking eyes. This retarded young WiiU generation is going to be the ones that peak Star Wars, not you. Just accept that you be the last thing in this world already.
>>63784190
It does if they reccomend the movie
And they does
>>63783985
The franchise peaked in '77, dog.
>>63784191
I kind of doubt that. Mostly because of oversaturation of media in general and also Star Wars as a brand.
>>63784267
As sad as this is I'm pretty sure it peaked in 1999, financially speaking.
People are so silly here.
Even if TFA doesn't break records, it'll make a lot of money for disney on memorabilia and toys alone.
>>63782362
Who actually cares about Avatar 2
Avatar made all It's money on spectacle
I'd be suprised If Avatar 2 gets far past $1bn worldwide
>>63783598
Things to keep in mind:
Disney paid $4 billion for the rights to Star Wars
$200 million is the production costs, all costs involved in the movie are about $450 million
The producers only get about ~50% of revenue made from a movie at the box office
Now this is not to say that TFA isn't going to make Disney an absolute fuckton of money, and we aren't even considering merchandise which has consistently made more money than the actual movies, but It's not as simple as invest $200 million, receive $1.8 billion in profit
>>63784530
you realize that Avatar 2 will be that next spectacle movie people are waiting for because every movie after Avatar still has shit CGI and 3d.
>>63784746
If that's the case why are they releasing Avatar 3 right after Avatar 2
It'll have been 8 years since Avatar when Avatar 2 comes out so maybe it will make some technological lead forward and people will flock to see the shiny new graphics
But avatar 3 comes out the year after avatar 2
Cameron has deluded himself into thinking people care about Dances with Wolves in space
Too be honest It'd probably make more money If he just made another original movie instead of sequels to Avatar. Everyone knows who Cameron is, everyone knows what movies he's made. An original by Cameron is more intriguing than a sequel to Avatar.
>>63781490
holy shit I'm in tears
based Jim
>>63782396
>James Cameron
That mother fucker said with a straight face that Genisys was good. Fuck him. He's a god damned liar.
>>63784840
Because James is old and wants this story he had forever to be complete.
>>63782499
You may be retarded. I've never even seen a stupid person, let alone a 4channer claim Avatar is intellectual.
>>63781490
Based Jim.
Does anyone have the Terminator 2 one where Jim crashses into the police station and blows the fuck out of Whedon and capeshit at large?
>>63781465
He is wrong. Even my dad wants to see this movie, and the last movie he saw in theaters was avatar.

They've proven they're willing to operate at a loss to push their agenda. Interracial porn for example isn't profitable, like at all, they LOSE money making it, but Jewish porn moguls still spend millions of dollars to produce it because it fits their agenda.
>>63784891
He probably didn't even watch it
>>63785202
Interracial is on par with bestiality, the fact that most actresses refuse it is proof.
Actresses will demand hundreds of thousands of dollars to be in a 1hr scene with a black, not because of penis size, but because its fucking degrading.
You'll never meet a white girl who wants black children, they want a white man to fill em to the brim jim and have aryan children.
>>63785202
I'm know nothing about business or making pron but I doubt making porn is expensive. So I very much doubt anyone making any kind of porn is actually losing money.
>>63785377
>Actresses will demand hundreds of thousands of dollars to be in a 1hr scene with a black, not because of penis size, but because its fucking degrading.
because it's pretty much the kiss of death in their career. After that, you just literally flipped off your fans.
>>63781929
That's the difference.
People on Reddit will criticize Cameron's movies for being unoriginal and in the very next breath will go on to praise every Marvel movie as quality filmmaking.
I'm speaking as someone who isn't even a big Avatar fan. It's not that great of a movie, but for people to rip it and then praise even less-original, more bland trash is absurd.
>>63785629
Paying big name female stars to do interracial scenes gets very expensive
Looks like Disney bit off more than they can chew when they shelled out 4 billion usd (!) to secure the star wars franchise.
If they go through with the 'a Star Wars movie every year' thing, people will get tired of it quickly.
>>63787083
nah they will make that back easily thanks to merchandise. Its kind of like musicians, they usually don't make that much from actual album sales. All their money comes from merchandising and touring.
>>63781852
>2 years
>>63785629
You're asking popular big named porn actresses to risk their floundering success on a niche fetish that could blow back in their face in the long term. Of fucking course, it's going to cost them. Once you get BLACKED your future in the biz is SACKED.
SW faggots absolutely BTFO
>>63787083
Disney might still make a profit, but they'll be pissed if the returns are so meager once they've made back the money for buying the property.
Lucas probably conned them.
