I'd love to see someone like Jason Statham playing Dash Rendar.
Well hmm. I just assumed since it was referenced in the game and X-Wing Alliance, it was part of that "canon."

TIL.

Box Office: 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' Topping $1 Billion Today

Scott Mendelson , CONTRIBUTOR
I cover the film industry.


Remember how we all flipped out last weekend because Walt Disney's Star Wars: The Last Jedi took the biggest Fri-to-Fri drop in history for the second weekend of a Star Wars movie? Well, this is like that, but the opposite. Lucasfilm's The Last Jedi earned $19 million on its third Friday, a drop of just 23% from last Friday’s $24m day-eight gross. To wit, that’s a smaller “third Friday” drop than Force Awakens (-30%) and just slightly higher than Rogue One (-20%).

Be careful not to choke on your premature proclamations of failure...

Heck, among all Star Wars films to open straight into wide release (everything since Return of the Jedi, for which I can’t find day 17-day grosses but which dropped 30% in the third weekend), that 23% drop is smaller than Phantom Menace (-37%), Attack of the Clones (-58%) and Revenge of the Sith (-54%). Now all three of those were coming out of Memorial Day holiday weekends, but the percentages are the percentages.



.....So, no, Disney’s Star Wars franchise isn’t in any plausible peril. The film is doing obscene damage to theater cash registers even with potent competition, a bizarre media narrative focusing on dissatisfied fans (I’m half-expecting to see profiles of folks who hated The Last Jedi due to “economic anxiety”) and the fact that it’s the third Star Wars movie in three years. Even in a Netflix and Chill era, The Last Jedi is proving itself to be a forceful theatrical contender.

And Disney has already made their $4 Billion back they gave to Lucas for the rights. Going to be able to print money from here on out.

And that's only on box office receipts.

Disney is banking and Rian is going to be their next big cash cow.

Yep, that doesn't include merchandising, use of "Star Wars" in Disney Parks globally etc.

Hard to argue someone who got $4 Billion made a bad deal...... but, it seems Lucas undervalued his product. OTOH, how many people/corporations have $4 Billion in cash to spend?

Mendolson is talking out of his ass.

Same day receipts from TFA v. TLJ, yesterday and the equivalent day for TFA

$34.4m (TFA)
v.
$19m (TLJ)


TLJ is now more than $200m short of TFA in the domestic market, after this period of box office time ($686,361,421 v. $483,762,228).

Nobody was gonna watch anymore Lucas after he dropped the prequel turds. It was a case of a company buying a dying company's product and making it glorious again.


Besides, Lucas already turned to the Dark Side:

Like, talking with people that I actually know, one-on-one.

It sounds different when you say it out loud as opposed to just typing.

Which clearly, you don't understand.

Do you believe that the total gross for a film is solely collected by the distributor?

Yeah no one is denying this film isn't TFA.

Now compare it to Rogue One.

It has absolutely recovered from the lull and is on pace for a strong finish.

edit: I ****ed up my math but my point remains. It's going to do ~$150 million this week and that's more than solid after ~180 million last week.
