You haven't shut up about it for 6 months. I'm pretty sure you care.

and another few hundred million on marketing.
Perception can be subjective, but I haven't noticed anywhere near the marketing push we saw for other Star Wars films.

Yeah I didn’t even see a commercial for it until this past Wednesday.

After the 3rd viewing of this movie, I can conclude its ok at best.

Disney is spending an assload of money converting two properties into an entire Star Wars experience with Galaxys Edge. It’s literally going all in. Disney can’t afford to tank Star Wars for some stupid message that only plays well in pockets of America. China and a whole host of other countries don’t give a shite about SJW, and a good portion of the folks at home don’t either.
Unless something drastic happens, with the cost of the reshoots and marketing, Disney is likely going to lose money on Solo. Let that sink in. That’s going to send a pretty powerful message to the folks in charge.

Disney could do a live-action version of the South Park gangbang and it wouldn't tank Star Wars.

No they won't. Disney has already made money off Solo, and then some.

Dude. It’s like arguing with your dog. Even after you prove your point, they’ll keep barking and shitting all over the place.

Exactly. My dog eventually learns. Maybe they will, too.

I called the cops on some dude for leaving his dog in his backseat today. Dumbfrick is lucky he only got a telling off from the po po. I love good cops who give a shite.

To be fair, I don’t think Star Wars will ever resonate with China, regardless if its good or not. The Evil Empire is a bit awkward with them given their country’s history. They just want single bad guys who have no issues with them being bad. They want things that are morally simple. They don’t like films that are morally complex or when a government is the bad guy.

Not going to see this movie

despite opening with Infinity War and Deadpool 2 for competition.
To be fair, Solo’s numbers can’t be blamed on competition. Avengers opened a month ago, and Dead Pool has an R rating. No other movie dared to challenge Solo this weekend. It’s a huge movie weekend, and it’s very uncommon for only one movie to be released Memorial Day weekend.
I haven’t seen it, but the audiences reaction and reviews are positive. The only competition upcoming is Incredibles 2 and Oceans 8 in two weeks. Both will have some crossover appeal, but the next mainstream blockbuster isn’t until the end of June when the Jurassic World sequel is released.
It has a chance to do solid numbers for the next few weeks, but it is currently a bomb. That label may not be fair because it still did solid numbers, but it fell well below expectations.

Infinity War and Deadpool have made $60 million so far this weekend. That's not insignificant.

#6 all-time is pretty good for a bomb.

Just wow...

A final global #boxoffice of $500M may just not be possible for #SoloAStarWarsStory. Even $450M will take hard work to achieve. China's opening wknd was a poor $10.1M which is very low, even for a #StarWars movie there.

That’s nuts for it to struggle to hit $450M

For Kathleen Kennedy:
She won't survive that, nor will Rian Johnson.
