At $325 (in the US alone), TFA hits $300 + in five days, another record. It's approaching Sith's total (domestic) BO run ($380).

 

It's projected to hit $500 million (domestic sales) in its first ten days. Domestic sales have currently passed $400 million, worldwide sales are at $766 million. :o :o

Saw The Force Awakens this afternoon.... as you can see from the Last Movie You Watched thread.... and as you might possibly deduce on that thread, I really, really liked it! :wub:

I know it's Star Wars and silly and all that but I couldn't get past Sam Jackson (love him!) as Mace Windu. I was just waiting for him to say something like "The force isn't to be trifled with mofo!" or "Say 'Palpatine' again mofo I dare you! I double dare you!"

Every time I see that bit where he says "This party's over!" I keep expecting him to add "Mofo!"

just saw it, was good, very good, now I have to watch IV, V, and VI because they are GREAT!!

 

after watching iV, V and VI again, I have to say Return Of The Jedi is kind of weak. Ewoks aside, a lot of the action is just silly.

The release date of Star Wars VIII is apparently being pushed back to December 2017. It seems that the director and writers are rewriting much of the screenplay, as the popularity of the new characters was so unexpected. This could mean less screen time for the "old characters".

 

OK, so Luke can be 49% of the film instead of 50%......:LOL:

I suspect it also has to do with making nearly TWO BILLION dollars in about 6 weeks over Dec and Jan rather than face summer competition too...! ;) I'm fine with Star Wars at Christmas instead of May truth be told.

Wasn't really a fan of the Luke figure even as a 6 year old...but he never was anywhere near my favorite character anyway.

 

Who was your favorite character? I find it interesting how many people have chosen characters other than Luke - the principle hero of the story. My favorite was Luke all the way, and sometimes I think I'm in the minority......:huh: :LOL:

 

IMO, once the first 3 played out, you realize that Anakin is the "hero."

 

I love "the son saving the father" stories.

It took him about 20 years, but Anakin did eventually bring "balance to the Force", as the Prophecy said he would. Of course, it was a "zero sum" kind of balance. The Galaxy had to start over from scratch.....:doh:
