because it's the first real starwars flick in 30 years made in an era of inflation and 3D. As said many times the sequels aren't going to be the behemoth event this was so if SW can't touch avatar what can?

I'm saying I don't see them crying over it if it doesn't. Being the 2nd highest flick of all time while also as a company producing three other flicks on that list? Man fukk that I'll take that. Star Wars, avengers, age of ultron and iron man 3

Breh that's the thing that's crazy about it. The flick hasn't even been out for a month yet. Not even close to a month. By the time it's out for a full month, who knows how large that total is going to be. There's really no stiff competition for it until February.
Damn. Its too real..So a Billy goat domestic would only be beat by what future film?

imo, beating this domestically is going to be insanely tough for the near future...I don't see anything being able to do it
Only way it can maybe be beat is if B VS S is amazing then possibly justice league in the future . But idk man I think it's perfect timing for Star Wars so :yeshrug: maybe nothing foreseeable

MAYBE Avatar 2? I mean thats a strong maybe. I don't see another star wars having this impact because the novelty will have worn off. I feel like Avatar 2 is the next event film on that level. Batman Vs Superman is big but its not this big and it doesn't have the benefit of this which is basically 2-3 weeks of people being on vacation with their families, etc. So there's a lot of going to the movies especially if you got kids and need something to shut them up for 2 hours

Avatar 2 will get a shot. But only if it looks like an outstanding upgrade of the first. Which I think Cameron is trying for. So yeah, that, and maybe the next star wars or avengers, infinity war shyt.

Infinity War might be it since that's essentially the season finale that all of these episodes have been building to for the past decade at that point lol. And it'll be in two parts

"Infinity Wars Part 2: Return of the Cash Flow" is the only film in the next few decades that has a shot
