Even surpassed newcomers "Accountant 2" ($ 24.4 million) and "Dawn" ($ 8 million), despite using "Minecraft" ($ 22.7 million) in its fourth weekend. To be clear, all those films were at least qualified hits on their own. However, the fact that the 20-year-old movie that concluded a trilogy that met, at best, the mixed reception in its time did better than most of the match is nothing shy than impressive ... most impressive.

Only re -release to make more money in your first weekend? "Starwell War: Episode IV - New Hope" ($ 35.9 million) in 1997 when "Special Editions" hit theaters.

We can also look at last year's Re-release of the 25th anniversary of "Phantom Threat", which earned $ 8.7 million Home outside the gate. The numbers ahead of us tell a pretty clear story - one that has big implications for Lucasfilm to move forward.

When they first arrived, the "War of the Starvala War" were introduced to a mixed reception. The "phantom threat" was very criticized, with the Jar Jar Arar Binx (Ahmed Best) becoming a punk line. Despite this, it marked a successful return to the Franchise "War on the Starwives" and became a giant hit, earning nearly $ 1 billion global in its original work. But when "Episode II - Clon attack" arrived in 2002 and climbed well below $ 700 million Globally, it was clear that the audience was not great at the ship for the story of Anakin Skywalker (with Hayden Christensen depicted by EDI, who eventually became Darth Weder).

People still care about Jan, Luke and Leia, it is very certain. But the fact is that the "War of Starwells" trilogy in recent years has had nothing shy of a full ransom tour. We can no longer pretend that they are staining the reputation of the franchise. Lucasfilm would do very well to accept this movement forward. For the time being, Disney will financially enjoy some icing on the cake, and theater owners are gaining benefit from some unexpected full auditoriums.
