Am I the only one who thinks C-3PO's red arm looks just so... wrong?

Although we’re still about five weeks out from the latest Star Wars movie, one of our sources has clued us into the film’s tracking numbers, and they’re impressive to say the least. The movie is currently tracking to open to $225 million, which would put it well ahead of the $208 million Jurassic World made when it opened earlier this year and broke The Avengers’ opening weekend record of $207 million.

However, this $225 million is a modest prediction. Keep in mind that unlike Jurassic World or the previous opening weekend record holder, The Avengers, The Force Awakens is basically playing non-stop from the time it opens on Thursday night through Monday morning. It has the most screens and the most showtimes. If people want to see it at 4:00am on Friday, they can; they couldn’t do that with Avengers or Jurassic World. Also, as we previously reported, The Force Awakens will have no competition on IMAX screens for a month.

Keep in mind that tracking numbers change over time, and it’s possible that $225 million might be out of the realm of possibility. Star Wars has never braved a holiday season before, and no December movie has ever grossed over $100 million on opening weekend, let alone the over $200 million The Force Awakens would need to take the record. People are busy traveling, they have hectic schedules, and some might want to wait out a chaotic weekend and see Star Wars later. It would still make a lot of money, but it would be spread out over time.

Wow, that's... unfortunate. I have the RotJ novelization but it's the only one I haven't read just cuz I don't care for the movie. Well at least that would explain Track 6's bizarre title, even if it's not real

Still doesn't account for Track 13: Exploring Each Other. Oh my...

Those EW covers sure are nice!!!

I love how they went for a retro feel on the covers. I'll have to pick these up.

I got a good laugh out of those tracks!

Proof that the soundtrack pic is space junk:

John Williams did not record with the London Symphony Orchastra on this one as it clearly gives credit to them on the made-up cover.

He always had the off-color lower right leg. Was that wrong too?



Now if the red arm morphs into a rocket launcher or something, I'll be with you, but a different color is just consistent with the 'used universe' aesthetic.

Glad we needed proof.

[MechaGodzilla]

Wait, people actually thought it was the legit tracklist..?

Because titles like "The Last Midiclorian" didn't.

Or "The Revenge of Burpo Fett".

I just realized, if Michael Giacchino was the composer these could have been the actual titles and that makes it even better.

[Astro Zombie]

"J*zz-Wailing Alderaan Nights" is the greatest song title of all time

It's a bit of a mouthful. Doesn't quite roll off the tongue. Too much? Sorry, I'm in a pun mood today.

Interesting. These movies rarely ever show blood.

That's exactly what went through my head, those are very Giacchino-like and for a split-second I thought he was scoring this, then sense took hold and I remembered that Jazzy Johnny was doing the honours.

My body... It's just not ready for what's coming.

Might be a bit too much to swallow.
