F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
The battle of the 7th parts on the international side is much closer than expected with F&F7 at $1,163m and SW7 at $1,118m (February 21st 2016).
Both franchises will see an 8th installment next year - which one will be bigger overseas?

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
SW8 because FF8 will decrease in China.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
Do you know of any Hollywood sequels which have decreased in China?

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
Its because of Paul Walker factor that FF7 saw HUGE hikes everywhere including China and I believe it will drop to $350m there. Might not seem big but that alone should be the difference because I see SW8 increasing to $150m in China.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
Of course Star Wars 8 will win this. Furious 7 was inflated EVERYWHERE because of the Walker factor, and it will go back to a Fast Six-level OS gross for 8.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
Also look at SW7's OS gross. Even without a huge China total its almost caught up to FF7. F8 is going to decrease in OS markets and SW8 will increase.

Star Wars, it's a no-brainer.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
Star Wars only has room to improve. F8 will drop below the 7th in almost all territories. It may not even be a 1 billion WW contender.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
FF7 was only as big as it was due to the Walker factor. This will decrease globally.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
Not much of a competition for sure though SW8 itself will drop below SW7.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
It would make more sense to pit FF8 with Rogue One. The box office totals will be closer than SW8.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
The fact that Fast & fucking Furious is bigger than STAR WARS internationally is insane and indicative of how much China differs culturally from the West.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
Looks like SW8 isn't increasing at the least over OW. But let's see what SW8 does in China, if it sees a big increase there it could easily catch-up on F8's total, SW7 ended up doing a decent $124m.

Re: F&F8 vs. SW8 (INTL)
it's not even going to be close. SW8 is aiming for 700m about. More than 300m less than F8
