In response to "I don't see the point in pushing SW into 2016. Sure, having #1 two years in a row is good, but having the top 2 films in 2015" by TWuG

I agree on IM, you have 30 years worth of reasons why it can beat A2.

I think a LOT is going to depend on what the trailers for SW7 look like.

Responses:

Any info out there on whether we're getting a trailer sometime this fall? Disney must have a big holiday movie of some sort it can attach it to. -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 11:08 4
- Wing Commander 2* - David Aug 6, 11:17 2
  - Still love that game. Horrible movie though. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 6, 11:23
  - *golf clap* -- nm - Star-Lord Aug 6, 11:18
- Big Hero 6 would be my guess. -- nm - Inigo Aug 6, 11:09
Avengers earned $623 million and was passionately loved. That is a huge gap for Star Wars to overcome. - David Aug 6, 10:58 12
- Sure. But that 30 years of waiting for something good, plus all the fans of the animated/book/comics stuff, I think gives it - TWuG Aug 6, 11:02 10
  - That's revisionist history. People applauded before, during and after the trailers for Phantom Menace. -- nm - David Aug 6, 11:18 9
    - had the last 3 movies never came out, you would think SW was a lock to take the title. - groiny Aug 6, 11:22 8
      - Yes and no. Kids loved them, so they will be jazzed to see more. Adults hated them and eagerly await redemption. -- nm - Star-Lord Aug 6, 11:40 1
        
        I was hoping others thought this as well. The No-Lucas factor will bring a fair number of adults back in the fold. -- nm - zork Aug 6, 11:45
      - those 3 movies, kids at that point loved them. -- nm - Remlik Aug 6, 11:36 1
        
        Exactly. And they now are of age to buy tickets on opening weekend. -- nm - zork Aug 6, 11:39
      - Well, *I* wouldn't but some would. :P -- nm - David Aug 6, 11:23 3
        
        JOSS WHEDON. -- nm - dayvid Aug 6, 11:27 2
        
        He is better than Zach. -- nm - David Aug 6, 11:32 1
        
        That's like saying a cold beer on a hot summer day is better than getting castrated. -- nm - Shaun Aug 6, 11:36
- how many years apart were they? - groiny Aug 6, 11:02
To your IM: Absolutely. If the trailers have even a touch of the prequelness about them, that'll hurt. - TWuG Aug 6, 10:50
