Hopefully it retcons Jar Jar binks out

Quote from: Dr. Pezus on Dec 10, 2015, 07:24 PMIt will certainly break all "fastest" records but will it top Titanic/Avatar? I think it can, as long as it's good and people want to see it twice

No to Titanic, no way to Avatar.

Jurassic World ended up $500 million behind titanic, and over $1 billion behind Avatar. Huge gulf between them.

I'd bet $1.8 billion lifetime for episode 7. Huge huge opening but I think it'll have only average legs. No way the movie exceeds expectations.

SW has much, MUCH, MUUUUUCH more hype than Jurassic World ever had.
It's already smashing presale records in Iceland

In America too.

That'll lead to a big opening, not good legs.

Well it is star wars and I think many will want to see it again.

Holiday movies tend to have decent legs too I think

So where did you see it was breaking pre-sale records in America?

It'll be big.

Think legs will have a lot to do with how well it is received.

The new TMNT trailer looks pretty good.

I mean it looks fun...That's all I want from that movie. Not to take itself seriously. The Turtle van looks awesome as well. Also a Rhino with a tank? Looks like a good time lol.
