| thismeintiel said: Weekend estimates are in. TLJ did $2.24M. This is 23.5% lower than RO's $2.92M for the same weekend. For the past 24 days, RO has outperformed TLJ by 16%. From now until it left theatres, RO made $7.54M. If the 16% holds, than TLJ will make just $6.5M. This would bring the final DBO total to $620.9M. If the FBO precentage of 53.5% holds, final WW will be $1.34B. Just a few points that help illustrate how poor its legs have been (all numbers pertain to DBO): - By the end of Week 3, Day 21, TLJ had been outperforming RO, outside of opening weekend, by 9.6%. That performance has fallen to 6.7% in the following weeks, and will continue to fall further. - By the end of Week 3, TLJ had dropped 28.7% below TFA. It currently is 32.2% below TFA and is looking to end up ~33.7% down. - By the end of Week 3, TLJ was $21.7M ahead of Jurassic World. It is currently $17.2M behind it and is looking to end up ~$31.4M behind it. - By the end of Week 3, TLJ was $72.3M ahead of Avengers:AOU. It is currently $15.9M ahead of it and is looking to end up ~$2.5M behind it. - TLJ has lost 65.3% of its screenings by Weekend 8. At this point in time, TFA had lost 45.3% and RO had lost 61.2%. JW had lost 55.3% and A:AOU had lost 48.7%. |
This is great news to me, the worse it does the more likely they come to their senses and yank that hack Rian Johnson from having anything to do with SW in the future. Of course it's not 100% his fault, but the horrendous pacing and writing are definitely on him. If it were up to me, I'd pay huge $ to get Lawrence Kasdan back, and put Spielberg, Nolan, Villanueve, whoever on it. This Uwe Boll/Zach Snyder level garbage has no place in the SW universe. Hell, Gareth Edwards did great with R1, why not get him on it. Yes, I'm fine with JJ doing 9, thank everything in the universe it's not Rian Hack Johnson.
