150 million 2nd weekend on its own, second week in full will probably be around $200 million.

Dr. Pezus · Dec 24, 2015, 04:45 PM

It now has the biggest Monday and Tuesday too.

Fastest to 300m, 3 days ahead of Jurassic World.

Good gravy. Nothing can stop this!

Should hit 400m after today.
Then the weekend should bump it up a bunch.

Took $38.1m on Wednesday for $363m total Domestic. Overtook Furious 7's domestic total today too.

$765m worldwide now

Not a #1 Wednesday, but everything above it was released on a Wednesday.
About double what Jurassic World was that day.

Do we think Rey is Luke's daughter? It seems very likely, perhaps too likely.

Quote from: Legend on Dec 20, 2015, 09:25 PMI saw Star Wars. No Uncharted or Elite trailers

Spoiler free impressions

Spoiler for Hidden:
Liked it a lot, but the ending was a dud. Really needed another half hour instead of ending with a cliffhanger.

Loved the characters and loved the action.

Minor Minor Spoiler impressions
Spoiler for Hidden:
Needed less Lea and more Luke.

Plot Spoiler impressions
Spoiler for Hidden:
Also needed an original plot. Death star's introduction and destruction could have been great if it was a minor element, not THE ENTIRE PLOT! Really fell flat and was really stupid to do it a third time around. Can't believe the movie was so great despite this shortcoming.

I agree with the spoilers.

Yeah, I can't believe they did a death star plot for the 3rd time. Yet again they had to destroy it before they got blown up by a big laser. And yet again the death star got completely destroyed by attacking just one part of it with explosives

Apart from that great plot.

Man, this will fly past 2 billion

the-pi-guy · Dec 25, 2015, 02:09 AM

At the movie, I saw the independence day 2 trailer, Uncharted 4 trailer and there was a trailer called the Secret Life of Pets that seemed interesting.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens $363,460,329
Jurassic World Uni. $278,389,075

Star Wars is absolutely crushing number 2.

Thought it was alright the first two times around.

But the "it's a death star, only bigger!!!!!!! was just really?
But yeah, it was great aside from that.

I honestly thought at that moment the movie was poking fun at the original and was about to steer the plot in a completely different direction.

NOPE!
