"Episode VII set the bar rather high: it had been 10 years since the last Star Wars movie, and 32 years since Return of the Jedi."

a dumb standard to hold it to

DL: Disney insiders "giddy" over Rouge One's first day of strong presales slipping jimmy Nov 28, 23:51

Nice. Tho I'd feel more confident if they'd been "frothy". {nm} islander Nov 29, 00:11

Maybe if they were giddy with a little pee pee. {nm} HollywoodTycoon61 Nov 29, 15:59

Well I liked the 1st three original films, and disliked ALL the rest.....But I like the concept behind this movie, and look forward to it. {nm} BelizeIt Nov 29, 02:16

I'll get more excited if they keep adding $4M a day til the opener...then it's be near Star7... TwoMisfits Nov 29, 08:24

If everyone is hyping it, then I expect it to be overperforming the $125-$150M OW that trackers have set 3 weeks ago... TwoMisfits Nov 29, 09:00

an opening presale day - dang no edit function {nm} TwoMisfits Nov 29, 09:00

200+ ow (IMO) {nm} tatoufan Nov 29, 12:50

That is definitely optimistic:)... {nm} TwoMisfits Nov 29, 15:25

Nah, SW has the fans and (imo) the film looks to have the goods. If the story delivers 200 should be base. {nm} tatoufan Nov 29, 17:13

Happy for them... Hope the giddyness lasts. Guess i'm one of few who thinks this installment is bad strategy jmt-nl Nov 29, 09:05

I worry that we know the ending (they get the plans obviously) and none seem to make it to episode IV. islander Nov 29, 09:46

You go into every Star Wars movie knowing the ending {nm} Sirzap Nov 29, 13:56

depends how much we care about these characters before we lose them...ala Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid or the Dirty Dozen {nm} tealfan Nov 29, 15:12

some are excited just because it's Star Wars...my 39-year old cousin doesn't even know what it's about...lol {nm} tealfan Nov 29, 09:20
