No it's not going to make a 100 million this weekend, that probably includes Monday. We already know Friday so the weekend can be estimated. My 70-80 million was highballing. Box office mojo has it at 68-70. And no it's not the second fastest grossing movie. It's fallen behind Jurassic world.
Your right it was never ever going to be bigger than TFA, but these drops are massive. It's on pace for 600 million Domestic and 1.3 billion worldwide. Star Wars is a bigger brand than Jurassic park, avengers and fast and furious if the movie was really good the box office would be higher. |
People bringing up the good opening numbers at the box office miss the point. The movie obviously started well because of massive hype, massive expectations and very good professional reviews.
It doesn't telle anything about the quality of the movie. It tells nothing except that people going to the theater had great expectations. The problem is that the reception for people who have seen the movie have been poor, really poor even.
The RT and Metacritics are low. In other countries it's also the least liked Star Wars of all.
The box office legs are beginning to slow and that's probably because it as has a disastrous word of mouth.
