Thoughts here... breaking records this new film is in presales... but do you think it will be the biggest opening of all time? No movie has opened over a $100 million in the month of December... I think this will... BUT I do not think it will crack the top spot held by Jurassic World. Anyone here think so? I know Dan does... but anyone else?

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
We should do a friendly wager? Maybe some kind of "guess the total" and chip in $5 bucks and the closest winsAbsolutely!!!I am betting it will be the 1st movie to cross a $100 mil in December but not a chance to beat JW...

You think the Jurassic franchise can beat the Star Wars franchise?
Consider how many SW fans have turned their children and grandchildren on to Star Wars...
its a multi-generational phenomenon!
I'd put my money on a record-shattering opening gross.
$235 million is my guess

I do think the opening weekend will not be more than JW no...

I've never seen any of the Jurassic Park movies.
I've watched all 6 SW movies multiple times.
Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
I'm positive it will!

Not hard to see everyone LOVES Star Wars here. lol No movie has ever opened above a $100 mil in December for MANY reasons.... I know this will based on ticket sales. I just think it would have done better for opening weekend had it been released in the summer. I think being released over the holidays is good for staying power but not opening weekend. Do not get me wrong.. LOVE SW too... hope it kills it but don't think it will....

It may well end up vying for top gross all time!!! Especially with school out for multiple viewings.

NOT A CHANCE. No way this will take out Titanic or Avatar. Ill bet anyone here that will not happen...

Never under estimate the power of the force!!!
EDIT: You're not factoring in that this will be the first of a trilogy, one of the most iconic movie franchises of all time and J.J. "Avatar" (so far) and "Titanic" were one and done. This movie's calculator will still be going strong when our kids, have kids and those kids have more and so on!! Also, whatever, those from the "Canadian System" have as offspring!!! LOL J/K LOL
If he does it right, and I'm sure he does, this will not be so much a movie as a legitimate way to print money!!!

If everyone could have their way; What one character from the Extended Universe would you like to see in the new films?
Yea I don't really think that'll happen either, but I do think that if anything is ever going to pass either of those this is probably the one movie that could.NOT A CHANCE. No way this will take out Titanic or Avatar. Ill bet anyone here that will not happen...
Hands down it's Thrawn.

I thought this was pretty good.
There's also one where they show this and the real one side by side.

Same here. I wonder how firm Disney is on their 'no EU' stance.. maybe they just said that pre EPVII reveal to get fans to stop bugging them about it. He's just too enticing a character to pass up..Hands down it's Thrawn.
Basically what they said was that all the "EU" stuff just isn't cannon. It doesn't mean that they can't borrow and use characters from that stuff for the movies. It just means that if they use say "Thrawn" his "story" as laid out in the extended universe isn't his official story going forward, whatever new they write or put into the movies will be the new official story for that character.Same here.

So for those that aren't aware current official cannon is the following, the prequels, the original trilogy, The Clone Wars movie / TV show, Star Wars: Rebels, and every piece of official media created after Disney's purchase of Lucasfilm, including books, comic books, and video games. Everything else is considered "Legends" and not official cannon.
Thanks Dan. Nice to have a summary of where things are at. Cheers
