TFA has hype well before Thanksgiving so this isn't going to reach that level.

Great prediction zwackerm. Looks like it might finish below Avengers for the #5 domestic spot.

I don't think bad WoM was the major problem here. People who wanted to see it still saw it once. The repeat viewings was the problem here

That’s what I said. Saw it once and the ones that hated it bad mouthed it all over the web causing some to not bother seeing it in theaters.

And that last part is what I am saying. Everyone who was interested in it saw it once for sure, it would have seen an even bigger dip if casual audience abandoned it.

600 mil is still an excellent gross, ahead of Revenge of the Sith and Return of the King adjusted. But it's weird that the gap between it and Rogue One won't be bigger.

Imagine if they'd added an extra spin-off movie (Rogue Orc) between Two Towers and Return of the King.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Rogue One diluted the brand a bit. The novelty of a Star Wars Theater Experience is lessened. Demand is therefore lower than it might have been. I'm guessing it would have broken $700m if RO didn't exist.

Wouldn't lack of novelty/anticipation translated mostly to OW instead of legs?

Nope SW is generally a HUGE fanbase based movie and as mostly are frontloaded because the fans rush out over OW.
