What? So the ticket you are telling me was not sold, because it did not have the same hype, is not there for them to buy? This is bullshite because my Thursday viewing had plenty of openings on the edges.

It's still going to make well over 400 million and over 65% if it’s domestic intake after the opening weekend. Poorly received films usually only make 55 to 50 percent after opening weekend.

You cannot compare this movie to a standard run of the mil bad movie. This is Starwars, it is an event. I went twice. I hated it the first time but went twice. How can you not understand that.

I’m saying after getting out of a 3 hour movie, there are only limited number of screenings left, and decreasingly the later the initial viewing occured. And when with a lower gross, a 106 million first day gross had a lot of full or bead capacity viewings, expecially again, later in the evening.

It's more of an event to you, clearly, than most people. And I was comparing it to movies like Harry Potter, DC, Marvel, etc. which have huge fan bases too.
