How does it make you feel?
JIM CAN GONNA SHITCAN JEW JEW THE MAN
Angry
Glad that I was a part of ittwice
>>64249248
A mixture of apathy and grim acceptance
>>64249248
Aggressive marketing is super effective
Indifferent.
It has nothing to do with the quality so I don't understand people who are angry about it.
It was marketed like crazy and wasn't terrible.
Nothing surprising here.

>money is worth less and less due to inflation
>lots of other reasons people go to cinema more often now because they have disposable income/no work ethic/need constant gratification
>people are surprised when new films do better than old films
>someone who isn't me made a lot of money
Why should I care, again?
>>64249248
eh, better than avengers and less boring than avatar
>Disney is going to control the entire entertainment industry in your lifetime
>>64249248
FRONT LOADED
WONT BEAT AVATAR
>>64249248
What no one wants to mention about this "record breaking cultural event" of a movie is that it's only doing slightly better than Jurassic World which had much less hype and jewpower behind it.
>>64249248
Congratulations on all the money!
That's not adjusted for inflation, though, so it's less impressive than it would have been years ago.
>>64250030
This
>>64250030
>Jurassic World
>simple sequel to a series nobody is excited for
>only barely beaten by the most hyped movie of our lives
Yeah, that's way less impressive.
>>64250092
Well Jurassic World was released on the worldwide release date and made $100M just the first week
I saw it twice.With two different girls.
Feels good man.
Like I want to lick Rey's armpits.
>>64250034
plus ticket prices are higher in general.
oh and inflation means Avatar's total is north of $3 billion, not $2.7.
>>64249248
Pretty sure they spent that much in marketing.
>>64249248
"star wars" prints money
woah who knew
>>64249248
Wow big deal....movies just cost more.
>>64250079
Kill yourself. Never reply to me again.
>>64251097
Your mum and your other mum?
>>64251417
This.
>>64249248
Literally the largest and most widely known sci-fi franchise in the world
Can't beat avatar
Bravo JJ, thanks for killing SW
Save a copy of KOTOR 2 everyone, it's the only good thing we have left.
>>64251614
FUKKEN KEKT
>>64249248
I really don't know why people give a shit about box office returns, like they are some sort of benchmark of quality.
>>64251851
JJ killed Star Wars and he couldn't even make more money than Jim doing it.
>>64249940
>disney will merge with google within your lifetime
Basically conformation that Disney is going to fucking beat Star Wars raw.
Star Wars is going to be the new capeshit. competently made but safe and soulless block buster movies designed by marketers and focus groups for maximum return.
I would not be surprised if we start to see multiple Star Wars movies in a single year, they are already talking about a Han Solo origin story and a Han Solo origin story ffs.
>>64249248
So it's lost over 3 billion dollars so far.
I feel vindicated. Thrawn is canon. JJ is shit.
>>64252762
It's been known for a while that at least 3 "anthology" movies will be made. The first is Rogue One. I vaguely remember reading that they want to release one movie per year, alternating between the new trilogy and the anthology trilogy every year.

>spend 4.05 billion dollars to acquire rights to Star Wars
>spend additional $200 million on budget
>recoup only $1.161 billion dollars

>you will never make 1 billion in 12 days
Feels pretty bad t͏͏b͏͏h f͏͏a͏͏m.
>>64252808
Including merchandise and all that other shit, the first movie alone was projected to make Disney 8 billion dollars.
>It doesn't make money
>Haha! this is proof it's bad
>It makes money
>I don't care, is a shit movie anyway.
>this is /tv/
>>64252808
>>64252896
>box office returns even indicative of the MASSIVE returns they get by licensing the SW franchise to lunch-box and bobble-head manufacturers, nevermind the overseas dvd/blueray market.
Jesus fuck why is teev so retarded?
>>64249661
this is true faxts, like Avatar its not actually good, its just marketing.
Also, check this number for the 2nd Monday
>>64252762
spot on
>>64249905
b-but it's just the same movie as ep.4. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills
>>64253116
Its really well made, even if it isnt creative.
Def not better than Avatar though.
>>64253180
How is it well made if the soundtrack is crap, theres dutch angles, and the plot and the characters are just retreds of the original trilogy.
Also Ford and Fisher were complete shit. Both gave shitty performances.
