$4.3 billion – How much the “Star Wars” franchise made since its original installment in 1977, not including “The Force Awakens”.

Carr completed a season-high 77.4 percent of his passes (24 of 31) for 289 yards with three TDs and no INTs in that contest. Derek Carr passed for 289 yards and three touchdowns and Amari Cooper caught six passes for 133 yards and a touchdown.
Another reason behind the massive achievement of the new star wars movie is fans repeatedly going to cinemas to watch a second time. With the current trend of a few big-budget films ruling the box office, “We could see average film rent expenses push higher”, says Wold, which would hurt theater profit margins.

Thus far, Louisville has been seriously tested only once – against Michigan State – a test they did well on but did not pass. A rugged, physical game with another home team again enjoying the benefit of the doubt on the physical aspects of the game.

Per Mertesacker tells purring Arsenal ‘there is still work to do’
Arsene Wenger says Arsenal won’t underestimate Southampton this weekend since they have the potential to be a strong team.
eBay was Feeling the Force with their dedicated Star Wars page. The Star Wars universe, where ancient cults and futuristic concepts co-habit, still feels like a singular artistic vision. Stormtroopers have moral ambiguity, a Skywalker family member can turn to the dark side, and most of all, Han Solo (Harrison Ford) can die in this new story.
A map of missing Sywalker’s whereabouts is entrusted to the droid BB-8.
He facilitated on-screen chemistry between lead actors Daisy Ridely and John Boyega that was missed in the prequel trilogy.
What Episode 8 could tell us is the real identity for Rey. The harsh desserts of Jakku have toughened her and she is the damsel who doesn’t need to be saved from distress. It’s one of the most successful and beloved franchises in Hollywood history. Snoke’s orders are done by Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), the film’s fundamental clashed baddie, and General Hux (Domhnall Gleeson).
In the first film Luke needs training before he can handle his lightsaber.
The Force Awakens does this very early on and it ruins something which was actually cool.
This saga has always relied on its villains to set the tone as much as its protagonists, and Driver does not disappoint as Kylo Ren, more complex in his dealings than Emperor Palpatine ever was and less in control of his rage than Darth Vader, with an outfit that blends the black one’s visage with that of Boba Fett’s helmet. “For your sake, I suggest you get it”. The force is strong with this one. Abrams brought in “The Empire Strikes Back” screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan to ensure the dialogue is flat and earnest enough to honor George Lucas.
The premiere, which took place here on Wednesday, was also attended by filmmakers Ayan Mukherjee and Abhishek Kapoor, among others.
Oscar Isaac as Poe Dameron is also impressive in a shorter role. Lupita Nyong’o is Yoda-like wise woman Maz Kanata; Max von Sydow is Lor San Tekka. Lupita blends in well but must say, lacks the hold and charm a Yoda would have. That’s it, that’s the moment you know your life is going to change.
The First Order refers to him only as FN-2187, but you can call him Finn.
Another problem I had with Abrams would be, his inability to show some active interactions between the non-human characters in the film. But he’s also softened and there’s a crucial track that becomes the centre piece of the film (giving out more would mean spoilers). Not to mention she knew how to wield a lightsaber too!
