Selorian Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Market traders are expecting Star Wars Episode VII to pull in $2 Billion at the box office: Star Wars Episode VII Worth $2 Billion
Selorian Posted March 28, 2013 Author Posted March 28, 2013 Depends on a number of things including how much on paper it makes opposed to the real numbers. Avatar and Titanic have both managed it so it's possible if the right cast is in place and marketed well.
October Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Considering we don't even have a premise as to what to expect, I kind of doubt it. It'd probably only be worth that much due to the hype of it all, really.

It'd probably only be worth that much due to the hype of it all, really. Hype does not bring a billion dollars in ticket sales, let alone 2 billion. I have already said that if they get the big 3 in that movie, regardless of their age, that movie is going to make a billion dollars. People WANT to see those characters together again. 2 million is a big stretch, but I would not say that it is unreachable. Edited March 28, 2013 by TheBBP
Crawelc Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 That article doesnt make clear weither that is box office expectations or merchandise and box office. I could easily see the lunch boxes(lol im old) and other swag bringing in 2 billion easy
Pirana Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) If we're talking about the entire bundle, ticket sales, merchandising, etc, two billion will easily be eclipsed. If we're talking about the movie itself, highly unlikely it'll hit one billion. Edited March 30, 2013 by Pirana
Selorian Posted March 30, 2013 Author Posted March 30, 2013 I was given the impression it was ticket sales and I agree that the big three make or break it.
