I am expecting todays numbers to be around $26-28M

With 2nd weekend at $155-60M, it will have crossed 548M by Sunday a little less than estimated $170M by industry/studios due to competition from Joy (Jennifer Lawrence) and Daddy's home(Mark Wahlberg).



I really hope for it to not surpass 1B. it is not worthy.

That means it would have reached 1 billion in nine days.


Wasn't the record for reaching one billion eighteen days or something?

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

Keep going, baby. I plan to watch it again. It was so good.



Ask stefl1504 for a sig, even if you don't need one.

The Force Awakens will have better legs then JW plus there is really no serious competion that will slow down its legs anytime soon.





UPDATED OP.

These are estimated numbers, I'll adjust once the actuals are released.

It very well could be a billion dollar movie in just the domestic box office. 
For every movie that does well there are those who like it and those who don't. Personally I'd love to see it get over 3 billion.
