All the fans that care have met them and had their photo taken with them, so it's not special at all that they are in the seventh film. Nobody cares. Only fat geeks that masturbate in their parent's basement care about Ford, Carrie, and Mark coming back.

 Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club
i just want a typical Fri-Sun opening weekend for Star Wars just so we can see how huge it'd open to. Just once that would be nice.
Of course it'll still open huge (200m + 5 days) regardless

 Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club
OD moving to Wednesday would make it very likely HP8 keeps the OD record.

So lame. Disney is running scared from the dinos. $100m opening day is still happening though.

 Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club
If true, it will just give more money, it could behave like ROTK. It should do 200-250 in 5 days.

 Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club
$100m opening day on a non-holiday Wednesday is gonna be pretty damn hard, but I think it still might happen. Lots of calling in sick & extended lunches.

 Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club
The first 19 days (12/16 to 1/3) will be all time record. With Christmas & New Years holiday it's going to clean up each day grossing no less than 10m.  can't wait

 Re: Star Wars Breaks All The Records Club
There would be no precedent for a 100 million OD on Friday.
If it indeed opens on Wednesday p, it should be good for 45,000,000 Wednesday and a hundred fifty million by Sunday.

Regardless, Sith's midnights with inflation and 3D are about $25m. This one lacks the finale factor and is in December as opposed to May, but they also start at 7

Maybe 50-55 OD and 160-170 by Sunday.

I hope the Wednesday day release is untrue... but either way it'll be the biggest single day of the year.

If it does indeed do 50 million OD in December you could tell all of us to fuck off but there's a better chance of the previews being over 30 million than the OD only being 50.
