Ouch...
Episode 9 barely clears $11 Million domestically on its third Friday, barely beating out the $10.745 Million that Episode 8 made on its fourth Friday. Episode 8th's third Friday grossed over $34 Million, and that was on Recovery Day, AKA New Years Day.
What a turd.
Reporting for all of the international box office Friday numbers aren't in yet. I expect that the international gross will finally outpace the domestic gross when they do, after the film's 15th day in theaters. It's still showing the domestic take at around $5 million more, but almost certainly that will flip as the numbers come in. It will be interesting to see though how the international interest in this flick holds up to the two previous installments of the Disney Trilogy.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

Ouch x 2...
Episode 9 doesn't even crack $34 million for it's entire 3rd weekend domestically.
Episode 8 made that on a single Friday night during it's 3rd weekend, and repeated that feat the very next day two years ago. Episode 8's 3rd weekend total domestic take was over $90 million.
It will make over a billion. There's no doubt about that. And like I expected, after the weekend numbers the international take ($468 Million) has eclipsed the US take ($451 Million).
China hasn't even hit $30 Million yet, so it's unlikely that the Chinese market is going to be the thing that puts Episode 9 over the total take for Joker, which was not shown at all in China due to the R rating.
But then again, Joker only cost around $50 Million to make, compared to Episode 9's alleged $275 Million production budget, and we all know that Star Wars has about 100 times more marketing budget than Joker would have had.

It doesn't matter anymore, this time next month people will be talking about "Ghoastbusters 3" and "Wonder Woman 1984". People will have something to look forward to, they won't be looking back at this joke. My guess is we won't be hearing about any STAR WARS flicks for a few years, and by then no one will be getting excited.

The bad news is Jar Jar Abrams is now on his way to Warner Brothers to fuck up the DCU, the good news is he may be losing STAR TREK at Paramount, they couldn't find backers for STAR TREK 4 so it's dead. Scuttle butt at Paramount and CBS/Viacom is they want Bad Robot (Jar Jar's production company) out because of the mess that is ST:D and all the trouble going on at Picard.
More good news, Rian Johnson will not be making anymore STAR WARS flicks. But it may not matter anymore, the damage is done. But Marvel and DC may have some good stuff coming this year with Black Widow, Wonder Woman 1984 and The New Mutants, also I can't wait for Ghoastbusters 3. I'm just going to try to forget the last 3 STAR WARS flicks ever happened. This will likely be my last post here so I'll end it with...Fuck you Disney! I hope Mickey gives Minnie herpes!

I never saw the first Dr. Strange, but I'm actually looking forward to the sequel which is supposed to be a Lovecraftian horror movie. We'll see how true that is.
I've heard people calling Jar Jar's production company "Bad Reboot".
I think it fits.

Jon Boyega reks Reylo trolls
I specifically chose this video because she's not one I've heard of before and, imo, not exactly an A level YouTuber. She's a fan. Random as they come, no pun meant, but the quality isn't nearly as polished or well crafted as most of the stuff I watch.
Orange hair and riding crop? Yeah, she's hardly a ' normie ', now is she? Never to be confused with Jenna Nicholson or Anna, That Star Wars Girl.

Ooof...
Star Wars pulls in less on it's 4th Friday night than it did on cheap ticket Tuesday. ($3,920,000 - Projected vs. $3,981,109 on Tuesday)
Yes. It just got embarrassed by Joker.
Joker's 4th Friday take was $5,500,308.
It might not even crack a billion bucks after it's fourth weekend. That will be hilarious.

Numbers still aren't in for Saturday night...
What do you guys and gals think? 6 Million? Is that too high? I want to say 5.5, but maybe it will surprise us. I'll say 5.0 to 6.5 million for Saturday night would be where the safe money is.
I'll just stick with 5.5 and see if today's a lucky day for me. Maybe I'll play the lotto if I'm right. (I won't play the lotto if I'm right).
