I wanted Phantom Menace to succeed but at the time Austin Powers kicked the crap out of it. If I'm wrong that it loses possibly its top spot this weekend then I will apologize. I think second viewings will be down (it appears I could be wrong as Disney has made it lucrative for many theaters to show it with 4 week guarantee or face penalties which is different from even force awakens)the argument that Disney didn't market it that way is somewhat misleading. Commercials with reviews attached is marketing and those reviews (google) constantly refer it it as the best star wars since Empire. The Kevin Smith youtube review  is over and hour long and he saw it twice. After the first viewing he doesn't actually love it. he is super critical of it but u can tell he couches it do to director respect. He basically backs almost every bad point made about the movie and added ones I didn't catch such as lazer sword (basically goes into the origins of the lazer sword). he actually cries several times during the video so he takes this stuff very seriously.</blockquote>
