É nesse tópico que consideram o fato desse filme chegar à marca de um bilhão de dólares como sinônimo de sucesso?
O filme que encerra a maior saga cinematográfica da história, destinado a ser o Endgame de Star Wars, não deverá alcançar sequer a bilheteria de seu antecessor... Pior ainda: talvez não alcance nem mesmo a bilheteria (devidamente ajustada pela inflação) de um spin-off estrelado por um bando de zé ninguéms (Rogue One).[...]

‘Star Wars’ Box Office: ‘Rise Of Skywalker’ Won’t Top ‘Rogue One’
'Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker'
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker will almost certainly end up below the $532 million domestic total of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker earned another $2.4 million on Wednesday, dropping 40% from yesterday and a whopping 86% from last Wednesday. That gives Walt Disney and Lucasfilm’s
Star Wars sequel a $460.9 million domestic cume. The film is officially over the unadjusted $460 million (counting reissues) domestic gross of the first
Star Wars beginning back in 1977 ($1.495 billion adjusted), and it’ll likely end the weekend above the unadjusted-for-inflation $474 million gross (counting the 2012 3-D reissue) of
Star Wars Episode One: The Phantom Menace ($882 million adjusted). Alas, at its rate of descent, it not only won’t get anywhere near
The Last Jedi, it won’t end up matching the $532 million domestic finish of
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Disney’s
Star Wars spin-off opened in December of 2016 with a robust $155 million domestic debut, along with decent reviews and an of-the-moment political topicality that at least offered a surge in positive media coverage in the aftermath of the 2016 presidential election shocker. I don’t know whether the whole “rebellions are built on hope” messaging resonated more after Hillary Clinton’s electoral loss in November of 2016, but it certainly didn’t hurt. The
New Hope prequel survived an unofficial director swap, with Tony Gilroy coming in to tinker with Gareth Edwards’ initial cut, but the behind-the-scenes melodrama still resulted in a mostly coherent and entertaining sci-fi action blockbuster. It earned a “normal for Christmas” 3.43x weekend-to-final multiplier, on par with the
Hobbit prequels.
Conversely, despite an advantageous holiday calendar that saw
Rise of Skywalker’s opening weekend leading right into the two-week holiday break,
Star Wars IX has, at least since Christmas, consistently dropped faster than its relevant predecessors. It has taken weekend-to-weekend drops on par with
Captain America: Civil War, a film that earned just 2.28x its $179 million debut. Absent the holiday boost, where weekdays play like weekends, J.J. Abrams and Chris Terrio’s poorly-reviewed sequel would have likely suffered a similar fate, but without a 33/66 split in terms of overseas strength. Nonetheless, even with the holiday boost,
The Rise of Skywalker is tracking for a lower domestic gross than
The Last Jedi ($620 million),
The Lion King ($543 million) and
Rogue One ($532 million).
The film will have around $463 million domestic (and around $945 million worldwide) heading into this fourth weekend. It is expected to place second to the wide expansion of
1917, as the acclaimed World War I thriller will get most (but not all) of
Star Wars’ coveted IMAX, Dolby and related PLF auditoriums and a likely over/under $25 million wide release debut. Where it places is less important than the raw grosses. If it continues to play like
Captain America: Civil War (which had its fourth weekend boosted by Memorial Day), it’ll drop 53% for a $16 million fourth-weekend gross and a 24-day cume of $479 million. And if it continues accordingly,
Rise of Skywalker will end its run with $524 million domestic.
That’s strong by any other standard, but slightly disappointing (especially considering the buzz and reviews) for the
Star Wars finale. If it drops accordingly, it’ll have a fourth-weekend gross 91% lower than its $177 million opening. Even
Avengers: Endgame, which wasn’t terribly leggy and opened with $357 million, had a fourth weekend gross ($29.9 million) that was -84% from its record-smashing debut. The only reason
Rise of Skywalker didn’t totally collapse is because of those first several days of holiday-inflated weekdays. Relatively speaking, the folks who wanted to see it did so in the first week and, sans any buzzy “gotta see it again” moments, opted not to go back. Whether or not it can pass the $1.056 billion global cume of
Rogue One is an open question.

Esses pseudo-fãs, que não tem subsídios técnicos ou morais para julgar esse ou qualquer outro filme, não manjam porra nenhuma a respeito do que estão falando... Porque não reconhecem sua ignorância e ficam de bico calado, permitindo que os "fãs verdadeiros" os iluminem com sua legítima autoridade e conhecimento a respeito da saga, não é mesmo?
