Very good point.  And it really shows just how big the OG trilogy was when they all did $1.2B (adjusted) WW, or more, without the greatly expanded market we have today.  And yes, you are right that AOTC would be the only one not over $1B.  It's not that far off, though.  $989.5M.  TPM did $1.74B, and ROTS did $1.19B.  Of course, those films still didn't have the advantage of the much larger foreign market we have today.  They weren't the greatest films, either.  That's why a SW film underperforming (TLJ) in this huge market is such a big deal.  And one that actually flops is a huge deal.

Interestingly, when I went to go look up when I calculated those numbers, I came across a post that is pretty funny, now. 

"Sounds like the early buzz from advance screenings of Solo: A Star Wars Story are very positive, ruh roh, Star Wars not dead yet? lol."  - Some Guy

Ruh Roh, indeed.

lol, glad to see little remarks get locked into your memory so long. I should be flattered. 

LOL, and you see why I usually refuse to argue with you.  Not only are the arguments circular, you don't even read people's posts.  Here, reread the bold.
