I really don't know if any usual predictive comparisons apply to this

Over time, yes. In the first weekend, no. - Inigo Oct 20, 10:20 7
- This is my comparison. If LotR didn't bring the GFBs opening weekend... -- nm - spamlet Oct 20, 10:24 6
  - Well, it did. It just opened on Wednesday, and was 12 years ago. - Inigo Oct 20, 10:28
  - Star Wars has way broader appeal than just the hardcore fans -- nm - jangles Oct 20, 10:26 3
    - If i even see it, it won't be opening weekend. - spamlet Oct 20, 10:40
    - Let's compare 2002. LOTR2 - 340m, STAR2 - 302mil. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 20, 10:30 1
      - Yes the prequels were turrible -- nm - jangles Oct 20, 10:40
  - It's the most extreme test we've ever had of the BOP theory that a blockbuster will open huge at any point on the calendar. - David Oct 20, 10:26
yeah, i don't think this will follow models. -- nm - Andie - Go Jays! Oct 20, 10:15
