That's pretty freaking amazing.
Sometimes it's easy to forget too that this is the SEVENTH Star Wars movie, lol after almost 40 years. The fact that this franchise can still dominate like it does says a lot.
People are falling over themselves for a seventh Rocky movie (basically) making just $100 million dollars.
It really does reaffirm my thoughts all along that all they had to do was make a "decent" Star Wars movie without the wood acting/dialogue/flat humor that the prequels were plagued by and return more to the style of the OT and they would make mountains of money.
If Episode I in 1999 had been of this relative quality, it would have beaten Titanic as well I think.

Lol you seriously comparing Creed to Star Wars?
The movie wasn't even advertised internationally. It jsut showed up in cinemas one day in some countries and not many knew about it. COmpare that to Rocky VI and makes you wonder why they even bothered with a cinema release lol.

Rocky franchise used to be huge money earners, and it's a franchise that's about as old as Star Wars ('76 for Rocky, '77 for Star Wars).
It's a niche franchise today (Rocky), just using that to illustrate how amazing the longevity of Star Wars is.
You think anyone would give a shit about Avatar 7 or Terminator 7? Yet the seventh Star Wars film is huge.
