Oh yeah. It’s already huge. I just think there are factors that will keep it from reaching projections after that initial opening. It’s still a fricking massive hit

I'm sure Disney is disappointed... Lol

Pretty sure it's going to take the world wide crown, but TFA domestic looking unlikely if those Friday numbers hold

TFA’s domestic record wasn’t happening unless they released it a week earlier and Pikachu and John Wick swapped release dates.

#AvengersEndgame broke the $500M mark at the domestic #boxoffice on FRI with $40.6M pushing cume to $514.5M. 2nd wknd looks on track to hit the $140M range lifting total to around $615M after the 2nd wknd for #9 all-time. Final north of $900M seems likely for #Endgame.

Definitely. Disney generally negotiates to have 75-80% of the first two weeks of it’s major releases each year (at least domestically), so that’s why they promote them so heavily early and often and then move on. They don’t care if a movie gets 20 million in its 5th weekend, they’ll only get 40-50% of that anyways.

Domestic estimate for the weekend at 145.8. Brings total to 619.7.

So this second weekend total would be less than TFA second weekend. The domestic race will be a close one.

It will easily pass Avatar. The real question is will it hit $3 billion.

Yeah, they fricked that up. Domestically, it could've hit 1 billion. WW wouldn't do any more than 2 Billion though. Star Wars is bigger here than internationally. China doesn't give a frick about it.

These numbers are staggering. I haven’t seen this yet, but I probably will next week.

Yeah I just learned that China never saw the original theater releases of Star Wars OT back in the late 70s/early 80s because of strict communist rule.

When the foreign movie clamps were lessened by the time the Phantom Menace was released, there was no built-in audience frothing at the mouth to see it. It was just another new franchise to them. TPM was their introduction to the Star Wars universe. Sad.

But it explains why the SW-China box office always underwhelms.

I don’t think it beats TFA domestic but likely will topple Avatar. Those first weekend numbers were insane

Domestic records look unlikely, especially considering the upcoming competition. Pikachu is already tracking 70+
