Update: That 75-77 estimate might be way low. Looks like Saturday is looking to drop to the 21-22 range. If Sunday follows the standard 10% drop from Saturdays, That’d put it around 68mil for the weekend. Saturday dropping from Friday is the first real piece of un-spinnably BAD news this movie’s had. Movies (especially super-popular ones) aren’t supposed to decline day-to-day over the weekend.
It’s very likely Rise of Skywalker will permanently fall behind The Last Jedi’s pace either Wednesday or Thursday, and if the drops maintain this pace, not only will $1bil worldwide be in jeopardy, but breaking $500mil will also. In good news - it’s looking like of all the contestants, Rocknroll41 has the best shot at hitting the trifecta.
