BREAKING: Star Wars loses to The Himalayas in South Korea at the box office.

Why is James Cameron so based? Star Wars fags on suicide watch.

The only bump it'll get after this week is in January when it's released in China

Snow White And The Seven Dwarves had re-releases every 7 or so years back when it was the only way to see it because no home video, so it's not exactly fair to compare it with today's films

The only chance it got is China, but we all know it's not going to do well there because of ooga booga and they know nothing of the Star Wars culture.

Star Wars is the original meme flick though

If James Cameron had directed TFA:

> Han confronts his son Kylo
> Take off your mask, son.
> Han looks deep into Kylo's eyes
> Realizes Kylo cannot be saved
> Kylo reaches for his lightsaber
> Han Solo whips out his blaster first and shoots
> Kylo force-grabs the bolt, and begins to smile
> Han looks on in shock, disbelief, and horror
> Kylo rams the bolt back through Han

TFA will never beat Avatar because pleb directors like JJ don't know how to make epic movies.
>>
>>63844909
James Cameron's Han would shoot first.
>>
>>63844909
based Jimbo would never stoop down to the Disney jews and would make a proper trilogy without any of the original characters

Either way it would be infinitely better than how JJ Abrams imagined it--Hans dying like a little bitch.

South Koreans know, it was nothing but a glib facsimile.

If Star Wars was all I had access to as a child in terms of sci-fi I probably would become one of those crazy fanboys, but thankfully I had access to anime from very early on in my youth years that my mental balance is very stable.

Seriously, if you have watched Akira, you'd realize just how sophisticated anime is and it blows away anything Star Wars would have to offer.

A lot of people mention Ghost In The Shell, which has just enough of sexuality in the mix to draw in the western audience I suppose but I must say that Ghost In The Shell is not even in my top 10 anime, not even close, that's just how deep the world of anime is.

Some anime is so disturbingly mature like Fractale that I wish it would challenge the system and submit it as a Drama category in the Oscars just to bitchslap the snotty Academy.

It's not just the level of maturity and sophistication anime has, it's also quite original, entertaining, and visually fantastic. I would regard anime as the highest form of cinema art-form.

But hey, me preaching about anime won't do you any good, you gotta go out and see it for yourself just how much you are missing.

The recent one I would recommend to check out is Sword Art Online which is light and easy to get into anime for the first time yet appreciate it as much, but if you want the heavy stuff right off the line check out Guilty Crown in which the plot is so complex and twisted that you'll need extra oxygen pumped into your brain in order to comprehend everything, and if you want amazing visuals and a gripping drama that also has awesome mecha battles Aldnoah.Zero is the shit.


Seriously, if you know anime like I do, Star Wars looks like it's something for little kids.

>>63844909
If James Cameron had directed TFA:

> Plot is organized around a single coherent goal for the heroes, not a "find Luke" fakeout followed by a superweapon
> Villain is genuinely intimidating, not a pussy
> Consistent tone
> Modest amounts of comic relief given to main character so we like them even more
> Brainmeltingly huge action climax that is easy to follow and was set up by the earlier parts of the film
> Movie ends on an emotional high note

EZ $3 billion

But Akira and Ghost in the Shell were glib facsimiles of Blade Runner.

Why does James Cameron look like anybody's shop teacher just accidentally became famous? I fucking hate celebrities that look like normie proles.

Like how Steve Jobs looked like a fucking substitute teacher, and Bill Gates looks like the assistant pastor.

I despise Cameronfags and most of his movies, but I really hope TFA doesn't catch Avatar just so we can have one more pure bastion of shitposting fodder.

Don't forget the midpoint where something unthinkable actually happens. And the extended coda on the climax with emotional resonance.

I appreciate your sentiment, but you can't really have both of these. You have to pick one.

Star Wars will probably get close to, but won't pass, $2 billion. $1.9+ billion is pretty much a lock.

$700+ million in Burgerland and $1.2+ billion overseas are pretty much where it will finish at.
