Re: Star Wars - Episode VII - Predictions The success of the 2 generations phenomenon JURASSIC WORLD makes me wonder what a 3 generations phenomenon like STAR WARS will do...
One thing seems certain to me, the 2nd weekend record of JW will be history 6 months from now...

Re: Star Wars - Episode VII - Predictions I made a $20 bet that this wouldn't out open JW.
Easiest $20 I'll ever make.

Re: Star Wars - Episode VII - Predictions I think there will be an 84 million difference between JW and Star Wars OWs. More or less is for you to decide.

Easiest $20 I'll ever make. If TFA opens on a Friday I'll bet you $20 it beats JW OW record.

That's really a huuuuuuuuuge upset...

That's really a huuuuuuuuuge upset... There will be box office data in 6 months. SW never felt like something that belongs to the 1990s. It wasn't new. SW really belongs to the fans from the late 70s and early 80s who were around at its inception. JP belonged to the 90s kids. Human psychology plays a big part of ones emotional attachment to a property, you'll see in December when SW is huge but clearly not on JW's level. _________________Ari Emmanuel wrote: I'd rather marry lindsay Lohan than represent Mel Gibson.

I have 9 nieces and nephews born between 1984 and 2005, each and everyone loves SW and all the boys love JP. And each and everyone will go see SW come December, in addition my 79 year old dad will go too...

Re: Star Wars - Episode VII - Predictions It is the difference between normal college kids, high schoolers, and young adults not feeling weird saying to others that they're going to see a Jurassic World and feeling weird when they tell others they're going to see Star Wars.
The bond between consumer and property just isn't as strong with that age market.

Re: Star Wars - Episode VII - Predictions I work with the public and I see 100s of people a day. Over that day I see multiple Star Wars shirts a day, some by adults but more by kids and teens. I have only seen 2 Jurrasic Park shirts over that same time period. I just think Star Wars is huge with three generations of people.

Re: Star Wars - Episode VII - Predictions SW is huge. But geeks vastly overstate it's coolness factor among modern mainstream America. Soryr but its painfully true.
It is going to be a huge hit, but nowhere near 208m in december huge. Maybe 140-150 with a nice leggy run to the mid 500s, maybe.
