>>64404979Guess we'll have to wait until then, I kind of want Avatar to stay on top but it will be cool to have a non-Cameron movie in the top 2
>>64404798
awww did you get sucked into the statistics war on film sales and you think titanic was 1st all this time? Learn to statistics....
Scott Mendelson is such a faggot jesus christ
I can't stand him
>hurr durr how dare people enjoy new star wars movies this is so GENERIC durrrrr
Half way there.
>>64405138
>it's going to hit 1.5 billion WITHOUT China
$2 billion is guaranteed at this point. I don't think it'll beat Avatar but it will definitely challenge titanic
>>64405138
>capeshit is finally out of the top 3
>mfw remembering all those faggots posting here saying Age of Ultron would surpass Titanic and it didn't even beat Furious 7
>>64405138
i remember when jurassic park was #1. it was a more civilized age
>>64405172
>I don't think it'll beat Avatar
Good thing nobody cares about what you think.
>"Y'know, we're never gonna beat Titanic""
And so Lucas' punishment continues.
>>64405172
>the most hyped movie that can ever be made in the history of mankind can't beat avatar
this is how much of a failure this movie has been despite whatever numbers the shekelstein blogs are shilling
I want to see ONE (1) person that claims it won't beat Avatar actually back that up with some logic.
People in a thread last night were suggesting this beats Avatar worldwide, but I don't see it. So it gets to 1.5 billion on its own, and then, if we're lucky, gets 300 million in China.
But that's still a whole entire billion behind Avatar. Where is it going to get another billion from?
>>64405172
It won't. It'll literally have the hardest drop off of any movie in history
It's still got nearly a billion to go yet OP.
Nice b8 m8, I r8 it 8/8
It'll get at least 2.3 billion worldwide.

Titanic is my favorite film

what the hell is that supposed to be?
>>64405558
What's "A Star Wars" about?
>>64405541
>Titanic is my favorite film
It's a solid film with some great symbolism and a few GOAT scenes.
Not a bad choice for favorite film at all.
>>64405603
It's called "A Star Wars Story".
Guy is blocking the word.
>>64404798
FUCK YOU.
You got me excited.
>>64405673
hope it's gonna be a whole movie with bob dylan hitchhiking through the galaxy tbf
>>64405558
>tfw thought paying 4 bil for the franchise was retarded
>tfw realize each of these movies will make ~2 billion when all said and done

Stealing the Death Star plans.
> Following the foundation of the Galactic Empire, a wayward band of Rebel fighters comes together to carry out a desperate mission: to steal the plans for the Death Star before it can be used to enforce the Emperor's rule.[1]
>>64405516
You faggots have been saying that for two weeks. When is this dropoff going to happen?
Wait until Batman vs Superman defeats both of them...
>>64405410
Look at this shit...
>>64405449
Avatar had a very long screening period and shows stronger overseas numbers than TFA, it also has strength in prolonged hype. If you look at income graphs almost all movies have kind of a logarithmic incline, including TFA, while avatar has a much steeper climb
>>64405541
man i want that
>>64405603
The reboot of the entire saga
the "A" at the beginning is just a nod at "A New Hope"
opening will be something along the lines of
>A long time ago in A Star Wars far, far away
>>64405603
>>64405637
An unnamed anthology film
They're going to start making spin-offs that ruins everyone's favorite character by showing more than they need to. For example, they're going to get someone who's not Harrison Ford to play a young Han Solo, whose character was already complete between the four movies he's in.
>>64404979
China doesn't show any interest for star wars
the star wars franchise didn't even premiere in china until last year and they hated it because the protagonist (luke) was ugly
they will hate TFA because of finn. Chinese people hate blacks
>>64405792
>>64405779
sounds dreadful
>>64405748
Happened first weekend.
> The Force Awakens
> 33% drop
> Avatar
> 1% drop
Only difference is that The Force Awakens is playing on over double the amount of screens and costs 2 dollars more a ticket on average.
>>64405138
I'm more amazed JW has 3rd spot really
>yfw you realize Star Wars, avatar and titanic aren't even great films
Why does anyone care about this exactly? Star Wars is the biggest meme there is, did anyone doubt this would happen?
>>64405883
Screens + Tickets.
If you look at adjusted for inflation and limit it to roughly the last ten years you get a better idea of how things are.
Although the only film on the top ten (globally) is Avatar.
>>64405980
people love talking about them and they look better on a huge screen so if you have to spend some money to go to the cinema they're still a solid choice

how can it pass titanic if it was on top for like 8 moths
>>64406007
Fair enough, when you got Furious 7 in there officially it's a little hard to compare like for like.
Bit of a pointless excercise though, regardless of ticket sales TFA will cream it with merch sales, by the next film Disney would have likely made the cost of buying the license already.
>>64406077
The boba fett movie is in production hell since the original director was responsible for the fant4stic flop and disney don't want to give him any creative freedom
>>64405585
they took him out of the chinese poster, and he's in the chinese trailer for about 8 seconds, so i wonder if they're going into the movie assuming he's a minor character
