The Force Awakens....

So let's get this straight, Star Wars Episode VII managed to rake in almost $248 million dollars at the box office this past weekend.  I heard some theaters even created new showings at 3:30am and 5:00am respectively.  It did on the other hand open on 4,134 screens nation wide (is on your side).

Let's play with some numbers.  Stars Wars or SW opened on 4100 screens making $248 million. That is averaging $59,982 per screen.  If SW was shown on each screen 8 times per day and selling for roughly $10 a ticket.  That would mean almost 250 people on average were seeing the show once the projector started.  Way to bring them back to the theaters Disney!  On another note, SW has currently made over $530 million dollars world wide (is on your side).

Closer to home, Mark better hope the low returns continue for the rest.  He is currently sitting on top in both the Blockbusters and Multipliers.  Sadly he is out of movies and now must play the waiting game.  It is really too close to claim victory.  I would love to make a Star Wars connection here but no SPOILERS gosh darn it!
