At the current rate it's not even going to hit 2b worldwide.
Disney must be raging at JJ right now.
It's because if him forcing Boyega that movie is underperforming outside USA.
Uhm... It already surpassed Avatar?
>>64590190
>is not even going to hit 2b worldwide
Lol.
/pol/ fuck off, Boyega can fuck my mother
>>64590190
Boyega turned out to be a really good actor compared to Daisy
>>64590190
Are you serious? It's only been in cinemas for 3 weeks you fucking moron.
>>64590376
domestically only
>>64590504
After 3 weeks
>>64590190
>Hasn't even been out for a month
Ayyyy lmao
Fuck you, Broyega was awesome.
I hope next movie is just Finns adventures with a side of star wars.
>>64590471
Uh no
>muh Star Wars flop.
Fuck off.
>>64590533
just saying it hasn't beaten avatar yet. not taking a side here just reporting the facts
How long does it usually take for a movie to pretty much stop grossing? Avatar is sitting at $2.8 billion
and TFA doesn't even have 1.6 yet. It's just above halfway if they ever aimed for #1.
they are sure going bankrupt now
>>64590483
And is already down to making 4 million a day.
>>64590504
>only
ONLY
>>64590668
http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&view=chart&id=starwars7.htm
In a week it'll pretty much stop making money.
>>64590190
You're right. They should have put a Chinese lead.
How much money did Avatar make in merchandise sales? I'm guessing it isn't even a tenth of what TFA is pulling in. Also, TFA hasn't even been released in China yet. It's guaranteed to make at least another $400million there.
>>64590732
Guess what, the first week in January is always slow, what with people spending a lot of money on Xmas and NYE
>>64590190
Go away, OP. My wife's son loved it and Finn really helped him relate to the franchise
When will people realize Disney is full of money loving Jews.
>>64590190
The budget for the film was about 200 million, why would they be raging at JJ when it's going to generate at least ten times as much back?
>>64590580
>Fuck you, Broyega was awesome.
But his character did not fit in the universe at all. Finn was played as a the typical cool and hip black american kid from the streets. It was like they took Chris Tucker out of rush hour and threw him in star wars. He had all the mannerisms and quick witted one liners. If he was just cocky I could have accepted that, but no, he was all "DAYMMN DYALL SEE DAT"
made no sense at all
>>64590991
They paid 4 bill for the license
I'm sure they're making bank on toys as well though
>>64591013
>stop liking what I don't like
>>64590991
Everybody was screaming how it's going to beat Avatar.
It's going to be a PR fiasco if it does not.
>>64591013
You have never actually met any American black people, have you? Either that or we didnt watch the same movie.
>>64591013
He never said anything like that. Just admit you're racist.
>>64591028
Not to mention there's still two more films in this trilogy and spin off films have pretty much been confirmed. It was a long term investment for Disney.
>>64590471
she was QT but that's really all she had going for her
My boyfriend's girlfriend loved Finn. He's such a qt3.14
>>64591072
No one has screamed that
>>64591072
Were people at Disney saying it was going to beat Avatar?
>>64590190
How much merch money did Avatar make?
>>64590190
>still crying about based boyega nights
>>64591013
Not at all. You're seeing things with the /pol/ glasses on.
Since the new Trilogy is stealing things from the EU, look into Kyle Katarn.
>Not even out in china yet
All I know is disney owns the 2 things I loved most as a kid, Marvel & Star Wars
get the garbage you deserve, millenial pleb
>>64590855
chienese are not interested on tfa, at least thats what reports have been saying.
>>64591114
Nope, I remember reading an article like a week before TFA came out, they (Disney) were thinking at least 1.3b but everyone else was already saying it could beat avatar at that time
>>64591013
this so much
he felt really out of place
>>64591087
he says that right after he escapes the Death Star with Poe
>>64590504
>caring about the rest of the world
>>64590668
A typical blockbuster makes 85-90% of its gross by the end of the 4th weekend.
>>64591348
everything feels out of place, because it's not a Star Wars movie, it's a Star Wars-themed Marvel flick
>>64590900
>Guess what, the first week in January is always slow
But it's not going to go up. Next week it'll drop even more.
>>64590190
This. It's one of the biggest flops of all time. It hasn't even broke 500 million yet.
>>64591476
It'll be surprising if it Eben breaks 50 million
Hux will bring in the bux.
Didn't even need a boycott. Turd of a film and the word has spread fast.
>>64590190
>he's mad successful movie is successful
>>64591392
But TFA isn't a typical blockbuster. It's legs were almost as good as Avatar's legs and it will keep making money until April.
Flop confirmed.
>>64591709
>But TFA isn't a typical blockbuster. It's legs were almost as good as Avatar's legs
Don't be delusional. Despite making nearly 2.5x more per day than Avatar did in its first week, it has ALREADY sunk down to below-Avatar levels in objective daily gross.
>>64591119
starwarscastmeetslaughinggiantboyega.jpg
>>64591680
Successful? He still has a $4b hill to climb. A shit director no one likes with a torrent of paid-for reviews would have achieved no worse with this franchise.
JJ Abrams is easily the greatest director of all time after these figures
I paid six dollars to see this movie the third day it was released.
Alpha?
>>64590582

>>64592027
I paid 0 dollars to see this movie the second day it was released and I paid 0 dollars again the next day when I saw it a second time.

>>64592101
but how tho? I went to a 2d matinee showing at a theater in the middle of nowhere.
Had I waited a week I could have seen it for five dollarydoos when their weekday special began.
>>64590190
I guess Disney will just have to dry their eyes with the piles of profit they made off this movie. They barely advertised, other companies did the advertising for them and had to PAY Disney to put shit on Coke cans and in commercials. Disney raging? Naw they are making like 20 new movies.
>>64590471
i liked when he was in charge now, phasm, he was in charge, he was in charge now. also when he said nigga please
Disney already made back the majority of their investment with one movie. That doesn't even take into account the other merch they've shit out that EVERYONE bought.
Is this a thread about whether or not a movie is good becuase of how much money it made?
Avatar sucked balls and made billions, so TFA detractors (or fanboys, I cna't tell anymore) are hoping it makes more money than Jimmy Cam's utterly forgettable cash cow? Or makes less?
>>64592208
>Naw
Fuck off back to reddit.
>>64592287
>Disney already made back the majority of their investment with one movie.
>this is what NEETs who know nothing about business ACTUALLY believe
>>64590504
It actually hasn't surpassed the adjusted domestic gross of avatar.
>>64592864
http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/adjusted.htm
And a ton of other movies.
If im correct Disney does not have the right for the merchandise, pretty much they could have quadrupled their income
>>64592984
That's incorrect, otherwise they wouldn't be selling Star Wars merchandise in Disney stores.
>>64592984
There is no way that they didn't obtain the merchandise rights as well. Why would they pay 4 billion for a toy franchise if it didn't include merchandising?
>>64592951

Cuck
Star Wars sells toys (except Finn action figures).
>>64591013
literal token black guy
straight outta dome wayans bros shit
>>64593709
It needs to make over 1.7 billion $ domestic to become #1. See: >>64592951
Those TFA records are worthless when you include inflation.
>>64590190
>People still grasping at straws to hate the black guy
Who fucking cares? Holy shit. Star Wars is trash.
>>64591805

How do you manage being so autistic? Films are just icing on the cake.
will they have to hire George after this disaster?
I dont see any real way out

>the sequel to Return of the Jedi won't crack 2 billion...

If you had said this in 1997, I would be quite surprised.

Thank goodness.
>>64590190
Saw it today, it was shit to be honest.
I took my wife and my wife's son to watch this
>>64590190
>>64590471
god you're fucking stupid
>>64590580
You mean Finn running from his life from Phasma.
>>64590190
Its because he defiled star wars by forcing a mary sue ugly cunt as the lead, not because boyega who was just there instead of another jar jar. The kike lovers are on suicide watch after the flop in china.

Then the Japs would boycott, and they have a Disney World over there.

>>64592984
>implying
Disney Infinity, bro.
>>64597561
The only one of relevance is Avatar.
All those other movies were in theaters for months on end and kept having rereleases. It was a different time.
We live in an era where eight blockbusters alone come out annually. And those blockbusters have to compete with blockbuster video games and television shows that rival movies.
>>64590190
>We live in a time when grossing $1.5 billion is a disappointment
What a time to be alive
/tv/ : where white nerds come to cry and share their insecurity rants...
No matter how much /pol/ or /tv/ tries they'll never change my opinion that this movie was great.
Movie ticket sales are a poor metric anyway to compare over years.
Things that will make newer movies have higher numbers:
>inflation
>population
Things that will make newer movies have lower numbers:
>cell phones
>videogames
>piracy
>abundance of other media
Measuring all these factors combined against older movies to get a number that fairly represents anything more than how much profit a movie made is almost impossible.
>this thread
why the fuck do I care how much a movie makes?
why do you?
>>64598399
>Not having autism
Get out
>>64590190
Fuck you. Boyega and Ford are the only things that tempted me into watching it a second time.
And I would have if not for Mary Sue, Whiny Brat and JJ's horrible storytelling.
>>64598219
>Earnings only reflect the initial theater release
>>64598219
Avatar was in cinemas for 300 days. And was re-released.
Fuck off Avaturd autists.
>>64598661
Fair enough but still:
>If the number of total admissions are calculated, this is the most popular movie of all time in the US with over 200 million tickets sold. While having the advantage of being released several times in theaters, there were half to a third as many Americans alive when it was released, compared with other films that set the domestic box office record: Avatar (2009), Titanic (1997), E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982), Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) and Jaws (1975). (Direct comparisons are difficult as subsequent films have seen escalating ticket prices, had to compete with television and later the internet for audiences, and the emergence of home video formats in the 1980s reduced the need to see all films theatrically.)
>>64590190
I was actually cool with Boyega, I grew up with the prequels so I have always been accustomed to a ridiculously out of place black guy being about. Daisy, however, wore on me quite quickly, I'm not particularly enjoying the idea of her being the lead at all. She doesn't look or feel inspiring and having a bitch boy antagonising her is making this series look very unappealing.
>>64597797
What are you talking about Daisy is the most qt out of the three by miles.
Lel how does it feel knowing youre so autistic you can't enjoy movies anymore?
>>64593621
>despite higher ticket prices
Did you adjust that for inflation as well?
Boyega is the biggest nigger in the history of niggers. He ruined the whole stars universe.
>>64597561
>Earnings only reflect the initial theater release
No they don't. These are literally copied from boxofficemojo which takes into account the entire total theatrical run.
>>64597561
yeah but Gone with the Wind was in theaters for like 5 years or some shit
>>64591805
>what is merchandising
You dumb nigger, Disney will make a bil with Star Wars-opoly by the end of the year. Star Wars is THE merchandising franchise. 4 bil for it was a fucking steal.
>>64598219
But that's what happened to Avatar? It was in theaters for practically all of 09 or whenever it was released. Also it had the benefit of being heavily marketed as an essential 3D experience, which it was.
Pretty sure it's only just releasing in China today.
>Black lead
>Not because of the female lead
Motherfucker, some places would rather elect a black male president than a female anything.
Also
>underperforming anywhere
Really faggot?
>>64590190
If you are so sure, please promise to kill yourself when it does reach 2b. I'm not a fan of this movie but it's easily going to reach 2billion. It wasn't even released yet in other markets until recently.
>>64590924
everyone already knows that, retard. Its a multi billion dollar company founded by a Jew that has purchased two of the biggest household name franchises within a five year time span. Anyone who isn't aware of that fact yet is an oblivious moron.

a lot probably seeing as there's a lot of people in China and Star Wars is popular world wide, so.
>>64591013
Nice trolling bro
So this is when the high fluctuations and heavy surges start happening.
This week and next will really show that through the day to days and weekends.
Because it's almost teetering or going over/under with what Avatar and Titanic did.
TFA's right now is on pace with how those two were performing.
Forecasts show for heavy gains into the next upcoming weeks.
>>64591013
Finn was a clumsy dork, not a "cool and hip black kid from the streets"
