Well, I'm going in for a third time tomorrow.

In the end if the movie dos 999.99M dolars we will know it was not your fault that it didnt reach 1 billion hehe. My analyses was basing on the fact its doing Juerassic World numbers now, and 150sh M was what Jurassic World did from this point till the end of its run.

FAs out of the curve weak was the second, where it didnt fall nearly as much as the normal blockbuster movies do, so it was frontloaded with an insane second week, week 3 albeit still way higher than usual was only higher cause of the starting point, the drop was pretty withim norm for a blockbuster movie. So Im assuming FAs number will mimic Jurassic Worls pretty closely from now till it ends its run.

Considering the numbers now, it seens FA will net another 150sh M dollars on USA so I dont see it doing 1B, wich is a shame but I guess it was too much to ask for the numbers to keep crazy high as they were.

 

Well, as you can clearly see, TFA is still earning more every week, so I wouldn't count out the possibility of $1 b.

Avatar model doesnt apply for FA, the movie started with an OK box office than kept having OK box offices forever. FA follows a much more standard block buster model, with the difference that its second week had insane hold and it started from a never before seen high. If Fa sundenly starts pulling "The Avatar" it will end well over 1 billion, Avatar made over 400M from this point till the end of its run. I think its much more realistic to expect FA to behave like Jurassic World from here onwards.
