Okay... so here's what I've got. Everything except for Friday night's estimate of only $40 Million in US Box offices for opening night that seems to have been completely scrubbed now.

If this flick has more then a 50% drop next weekend then there's a good chance it will not make $1 billion WW, if that happens it may not break even.

50% drop would be almost unheard of, so I don't think that's going to happen.

I'm just wondering about these magical numbers. It would be nice to get an explanation about how everything changed, literally overnight.

Particularly sketchy is the numbers out of China. Chinese authorities themselves had said that after Friday night's $3.6 Million dollar showing that it was thought that it would only gross $18 Million before exiting Chinese theaters.

A day later with 2 days worth of results they were just over $6 Million and showed around a 30 to 35% drop from day 1 to day 2.

Fast forward two hours later and now they're somehow showing $12.1 Million dollars?

Did Bob Iger have a little chat with Xi Jinping?


A little bit of Dis-Pro-Quo?

"You better fix these box office numbers, or NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!!"

I think their journey to the dark side of cringe was completed when Princess General Master Leia died from OD'ing on The Force.

A sick reminder to us all that Carrie Fisher, died from her addiction to pharmaceuticals.

Way to dishonor both the actress and character, in one fell swoop.

Star Wars on Christmas Eve

No spoilers of course, but I have to say that my expectations for Rise of Skywalker were so low that it turned out to be pretty good, relatively speaking. It basically had the design esthetic, dialog esthetic, and plot esthetic of the original trilogy: that is, simple, fast-paced, and suitably finished up. It’s probably perfect for kids, who are, after all, the target audience. For the rest of us, if you enjoy sitting back and watching a movie made in the style of good ol’ Episodes 4-6 without oversized expectations, then you’ll be just fine with Episode 9.
