My brain is telling me to predict $180m for STAR WARS. My gut is telling me to predict $230m.

$205m!

First: it is not going to open below $200 million

Second: TDS, do you seriously believe, Disney will let fucking Star Wars come within $5 million of the record and not break it? They will pay the money themselves if they have to, but it is not gonna do $205 million.

I really want to predict $230m+ for TFA but despite the fact its is on track to become the biggest grosser of all time - i think the $$$ will be well spread over the first two weeks of release. $200m OW in December is like a $250m+ OW in the summer IMO.

My final prediction is going to depend on the final theatre count. I will assume 3950 for now and going with $215 million.

So what would be a disappointing opening for Force Awakens? Taking the fact that it's opening in December and money will be spread out to the holidays into account, I think it has to be a top 5 OW of all time to not be disappointing. That means making at least 170M and topping DH2 OW.

That said and December opening aside, it really shouldn't open less than 200M. I hope Rev is right with his super high prediction, but only if the movie is satisfying and not an abomination.

It would be disappointing if it opened under $150 mil.

1 Star Wars $261.1 m

SW Ep. 3 adjusts to $206,157,600 over its first 4 days today. Considering that followed the worst performing SW film I think this is very achievable. Avengers adjusts now to $213 m, and Jurassic World did $208 m but I still feel there's quite a bit of room to go even in December.

I'm going to go with $261.1 m, which is a bit higher than the 22% increase on the OW record jump Avengers made over HP7 Pt. 2. I feel like the market has grown a lot and think this is a rare pop culture event that everyone is going to want to see OW due to FOMO despite being December. People won't be able to go to a holiday party without seeing SW in a lot of cases. Cross demographic appeal to every demographic and one of the weakest November box office's in the past 20 years in terms of anticipated movies only helps.

2) Sisters $28 m

Despite the Star Wars monster on the horizon, a hotly anticipated movie can still do really well against a pop culture giant. Mamma Mia comes to mind against The Dark Knight, adjusting today to $32.2 m. Sisters trailers are getting great reception every time that I can't see this going under Baby Mama adjusted for inflation even in December as the starpower of Fey/Poehler has gone up significantly since then. At the highest level, What Woman Want would adjust today to $52 m. But I feel like more people will watch this than J Lo's MIM ($26.9 m adjusted). I feel like next weekend will be a one off weekend that everyone "has to go to the movies" and Sisters is going to get a significant spillover effect as well. Throwing it out there now, Sisters will have a chance at $160 m+ and pull a Meet The Fockers type run with any OW over $30 m. Also not betting against Universal this year. They clearly must have indicators that there was a high likelihood of success counterprogramming with Star Wars or they would have budged on this one.

3 Alvin $16 m

You have to give it to this franchise, it seems to survive a lot longer than anyone thought it would. The last one adjusts to $23-24 m OW. Despite Star Wars, this will probably see some solid business due to underwhelming showings of other family films.
