    I wonder how close TLJ will come to matching TFA's box office numbers.
    Should be interesting to see with the divided fandom and all.

    I'm lowering my figures. I hear a couple of "it was good, not great" and "I liked TFA better" from casual fans.

    1.4 billion ww.

    And it's looking like TLJ becomes the second movie in history to have a single-day gross of over $100M.

    Cinemascore is published and it's the same as for TFA - A.

    I agree with you. I feel a disturbance in the force as if thousands of a vocal minorities cried out in terror.

    The movie was awesome.

    I won't get to see it until Tuesday, but all of these negatives reactions remind me of how people acted to TFA.
    So with that said, I know it's going to be awesome!

    I had no doubt. This movie is a masterpiece and it will continue to show. Dollars & cents/Numbers don't lie

    Like Transformers was a masterpiece? Money does not equal a great movie. Though I think TLJ is a greater film than TFA.

    The first one was genuinely a decent popcorn movie for what it was, at least at the time that it came out. The rest are all variations on the same sequel, with no improvement whatsoever except from the second one to the third (simply because the second one was just that bad).

    I never said that, but money doesn't lie. If most like something, then it is a favorable thing. If not, then one can say it was not good enough to please the masses.

    SW: TLJ pleases the masses, so people who dislike it are indeed in the minority.. That much is a fact

    But how do you know if you like the movie if you don't pay for it so you can see it at least at this point when it is in theaters. There could be many people who like star wars so bought a ticket due to the brand but didn't like the film itself. You wouldn't know if you didn't like the movie until you saw it. unless that person is just a troll. You see what I am saying?

    It's disingenuous to even attempt to claim that the box office performance of The Last Jedi is similar to Transformers. It doesn't have the critical acclaim to match the money. The strength for that franchise resides overseas.

    Lets wait for its week totals when that starts to reflect repeat showing. I have already seen it two times, working on three

    OW Domestic: $220m - Putting it as the 10th highest domestic earner for 2017 after just its opening weekend.
    OW Worldwide: $450m - Starting at 18th on WW list for 2017

    So, uh, bingo? Bingo! :D
    My initial predictions from over in the Box Office Thread, before I changed them in a later comment (to $225/$475 million domestic/international), and even said that I thought my initial thoughts would be right.

    Just goes to show that you should always trust your gut the Force!
