Attack of the Clones is the worst title.

Its not that bad. Most move subtitles suck anyway.

It is better than Clones and Phantom Menace atleast.

And I'm glad there is no RISE, REVENGE, AGE or RETURN in the title.

It kinda harks back to A New Hope in a way. We'll all get used to it and end up typing in TFA on these boards anyway.

Yeah, it's not like Underworld: Awakening at all.

still think the subtitle is horrible but the teaser is good. I think this will get a bigger opening day than Age of Ultron.

Teaser was awesome, but this was going to be BIG regardless. It should be good for a $130M+ opening and obviously it's holiday legs could be insane. Depending on where AOU ends up and the reception for this it could possibly get really close to $500M.

For now I'll say 135/480.

Trying to keep it realistic (remember, December is all about legs, not the opening!)

Opening Weekend - $142 million

Total Gross - $480 million

I know December is about legs but I think this is a whole different beast. There is going to be a huge rush factor regardless of the date. It will get the December legs if it's good.

I do think there will be a huge rush factor for this... but when the November record got destroyed by Twilight, the OW increased by 39.1%. That would put SW at $117.7 mil OW. Which I think is more than acceptable, and would still lead to $400+ mil.

Yeah, I think people just rush less right before Christmas. I mean, a $150 million opening weekend could easily be enough for a $500+ million total in this case.

Yes it was.

Thanks for clearing it up.

I don't sub to that twitter or read every little detail but it's good to know it's IMAX.

Seriously, what the hell. I don't get how anyone could watch the teaser, look at the reaction (I've never seen a link shared so much on Facebook) and still be predicting less than $500 million.

I'm not saying it will happen, but it's conceivable that the OW record could be beaten twice next year if both remain Friday openers. Until the reaction to this teaser I didn't think SW would have a shot with a December opening. Now I do.
