Do you think if Solo was pushed to Christmas 2018 it would have fared better? numbersix_99 Jun 02, 04:40

Maybe 20 - 30 % better , but certainly below 300M , astounding that disney hasnt yet fathomed the damage last jedi has done to its fans {nm} bunty_ketti Jun 02, 06:18

i get they need lots of moviegoers to make $, but they shouldnt have to appease "fans" who are going to get so snowflakey over just a movie {nm} islndr Jun 02, 06:28

Many of those "fans" are the golden 20%, those 20% are responsible for 80% of the profits.. learn the Pareto Principle Baron_Darcon2017 Jun 02, 12:31

Lol. The only “politics” was that women and not-whites exist and they like to be included. You can’t even handle basic decency {nm} islndr Jun 02, 13:58

That's a bit of a short sighted and arrogant reaction. Indicative of why Disney is failing with Star Wars. {nm} Prophecy Jun 03, 16:24

Then what politics has been injected into Star Wars? {nm} RogerMore Jun 03, 17:05

Disaffected, left-behind goobers in can't-keep-up communities buy street pills, not first-run movie tickets {nm} DTXbro Jun 02, 17:50

The Last Jedi earned an A from CinemaScore. ... CSStrowbridge Jun 02, 06:50

With due respect cinemascore means nothing actually , the numbers of solo haven spoken the real rating d- {nm} bunty_ketti Jun 02, 12:26

What are you talking about? You sound like part of the problem. {nm} Prophecy Jun 03, 16:25

That's anti-evolution-level argument ($600MM US, $1.3B total, A Cinemascore, good word-of-mouth signs = evidence) DTXbro Jun 02, 07:24

TLJ made 700M less. LucasFilms under Kathleen Kennedy attacked the fans!!!! RJ, JJ, Jon Kasden, Pablo Hildago all attacked the fans!!! Baron_Darcon2017 Jun 02, 13:59

No Collusion! slipping jimmy Jun 02, 14:02

The rantings of a superstitious bigot feeling butthurt about all of this damned progress, science, education, tolerance, and DTXbro Jun 02, 17:57

Regressive communist, marxist, leftists have overplayed your hand... you're anti-free speech bigot... you don't even know what bigot means. Baron_Darcon2017 Jun 03, 12:38

The divide is plain: Progress v. backwardness. Reason vs. superstition. Tolerance v. bigotry. Education v. ignorance. Science v. dogma. DTXbro Jun 03, 15:20

bruh, liberals wouldn't try to shut down free speech, and libertarians are diametrically opposed to gun grabbing. Pepe_Nolan Jun 03, 18:53

DXTbro the divide is simple... Freedom of Speech v censorship, Family values v degeneracy, Countries v borderless globalism, Lawabiding vs Baron_Darcon2017 Jun 04, 03:34

SW Fandom has been destroyed. This is so much worse than the prequels. The momentum from TFA is gone. Silverblue76 Jun 02, 08:02

Then why did so many fans go see it? {nm} Moviesnob Jun 02, 09:32

One of my favorite concert flims..."Stop Making Sense"... {nm} Catzan Jun 02, 14:04

Haha. I dunno, I guess i'll never learn that empirical data doesnt matter anymore! Totally a tangent but i was at this film museum in Turin Moviesnob Jun 02, 16:50

Considering the current trilogy is making the same % $'s as the previous 2...the depths have not been plumbed yet... {nm} Catzan Jun 02, 16:10

yeah, but only because of holiday legs. movie (seemed like it) was flawed from the start. islndr Jun 02, 06:20

Solo was fantastic and much better than I anticipated. It was a fun summer movie. TLJ was not the best, but certainly far from bad {nm} Steved1998 Jun 02, 06:58

I disliked Solo. But then again, I liked TLJ {nm} numbersix_99 Jun 02, 09:28

it would have been hard to do worse {nm} slipping jimmy Jun 02, 07:16

$8M Friday, think its hard pressed to cross $25M let alone $28M {nm} budice Jun 02, 07:17

you mean 8.153, and using the 3.47 im that xmen6 managed or 3.49 that pirates 5 did, then you get 28M+ islndr Jun 02, 07:32

25,26,28 whatever there no honour in even 32 for this weekend, it's been trashed {nm} bunty_ketti Jun 02, 12:24

Waaaayy too much negative press after this movie came out. Rlucas20 Jun 02, 11:23

No. I think LJEDI doomed it already. You have to have the fanbase to pull the numbers {nm} VictorY Jun 02, 15:46

I think even opening later in the summer would have helped. Something about it wasn't big enough for a holiday weekend. {nm} leo21 Jun 02, 15:55

Don't know, what I do know is, the SWAR2 stock has been fantastic! {nm} -JPV- Jun 02, 20:00

I saw Solo last night. It was a good western and finally answered the question, "Did Han shoot first?" :P {nm} DTravel Jun 03, 14:49

I can't believe some of the comments i've read here, the level of submission some of the men have.... go buy an L3-37 dolls, she's lovely {nm} Filmstardust Jun 03, 15:32
