Yeah, on paper JJ is perfect for sci-fi action soaped up with secret family histories and love triangles, but he’s more sizzle than steak. {nm}

Posted by: RogerMore on May 25, 17:19 in response to slipping jimmy's post i think KK and JJ rushed into the whole development...

Early DL Projections: SWAR2 $80-90m 3-Day, $105-115m 4-Day. Figures not from Disney. RollingThunder May 25, 11:10

Before 11 AM Pacific. Someone wants to start the weekend early. {nm} Antibody May 25, 11:13

"Industry estimates" in this case probably means guesses at the preview:OD ratio, not anything based on admissions so far {nm} MattW May 25, 11:17

No, the midday update is always based on early Fri admissions. {nm} Antibody May 25, 11:20

So, the Soylo soycott is working! And we'll do the same for any Obey Women Kenobi and Boba Femme films too! (jk) mantleclinic May 25, 11:42

The bigots and the backward don't win in America. Looking at you, disaffected right-wing yahoos. DTXbro May 25, 13:40

Could be a lot of sad faces on Tuesday with that OW figure. {nm} TheTomAsta May 25, 12:06

I will be very happy. {nm} RazorHawk May 25, 12:58

I like lots of free money too {nm} TheTomAsta May 25, 14:11

THR update: SWAR2 $80 million-$90 million 3-day / $105 million-$110 million 4-day Antibody May 25, 13:07

It looks boring. {nm} CSBD May 25, 15:46

Holy cow, what a disaster. {nm} skunkrunner May 25, 13:42

I can only hope that if it does disappoint, they'll re-think these spin-off movies. {nm} -JPV- May 25, 13:49

they paid $4 billion for Lucasfilm and have multiple trilogies and TV shows in development. Solo is not going to change anything {nm} slipping jimmy May 25, 13:55

There will be impact, but what exactly it manifests as is up in the air. {nm} notfabio May 25, 14:04

stop trying to fit the films to conform with Disney's rigorous release schedule would be a good start {nm} slipping jimmy May 25, 14:05

Re-think how to do them, maybe. But they'll keep making them because getting it right will earn them a lot a lot of money. RogerMore May 25, 14:01

i think KK and JJ rushed into the whole development process way too fast. should have taken a lot more time on all of them, but Disney don't slipping jimmy May 25, 14:05

(like, it took Marvel five years and multiple standalones just to work up to the first Avengers) {nm} slipping jimmy May 25, 14:07

But we are The House of Mouse! We can always do it faster and more profitably!! (Especially after someone else has shown us how.) {nm} The Mouse May 25, 15:11
