Pretty sure this thing is gonna beat Jurrasic World, both Fandango and AMC and other websites had crashed last night.

I think it will fall short, given that its right before Christmas.

 

The opening weekend box office that is.  I think it has a chance to do monster money over its entire run, as its only competition is Oscar movies that appeal to a different crowd.

Well see I guess

I do know the 7pm IMAX showing at the theater I go to is already sold out.

The release of a new Star Wars movie is nearly as big a musical event as it is a cinematic one thanks to the iconic work of Oscar- and Grammy-winning composer John Williams.

To celebrate the occasion, the massively popular a cappella group Pentatonix will perform Williams’ score, backed by a full orchestra, at the 2015 American Music Awards, which will broadcast live on Sunday, Nov. 22 at 8 p.m. ET.

Fans have long maintained that Lucas was just flat-out wrong on this one. The shooting established Ford’s character as somebody not to be messed with, and in the scene it’s pretty clear that Greedo is going to kill Han regardless (“Over my dead body” / “That’s the idea”). So Han waiting for Greedo to take a shot at him while at point blank range doesn’t make any sense.

But Lucas won’t read that, or your comment below, because he also admitted in the interview that he has “assiduously avoided the Internet since 2000 — no Facebook, no Twitter, no e-mail even.” The first of the oft-derided Star Wars prequel movies, The Phantom Menace, was released in 1999, so that was probably indeed a good time to bail out. Read that whole WashPost story here.
