      I saw it, and i have no idea why i'm supposed to watch it. I like star wars, but what's the added value of this? At least Rogue One gave us the deathstar plan heist.

        I wouldn't mind seeing Solo's backstory. Yeah, they want to put butts in seats this Memorial day, but I think it's worth watching.

            I will never understand why--in the age of the internet, when your trailer is available to the whole world the moment you click Upload--trailer-creators insist on ending their video by saying it comes out on a holiday only celebrated in one country.

              Because that one country is where most of their sales come from?

                  For "The Last Jedi"

                  http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/...=starwars8.htm

                  Domestic (US) total: $614,455,022

                  Largest non-US take was the UK, with United Kingdom $110,354,551

                  US take almost 6 times that of the next highest.

                    Overseas territories make more money than the domestic market. Though true, the domestic market is the single largest market, for more than a decade now overseas is the biggest moneymaker. Which is why there's pandering to China for instance.

                      “Domestic” should also shrink a little, as it isn’t just US. “Domestic” includes Canada for sure, maybe Mexico too? Not actually sure about MX, maybe not.

                      In either case—neither Mexico nor Canada celebrate Memorial Day either.

                        Just like we don't celebrate Cinco De Mayo in the US?

                          I honestly have no idea how tongue-in-cheek that was meant to be, so I’ll just answer as though you were being serious.

                          Memorial Day is literally not celebrated in Canada, at all. Our May holiday is Victoria Day (or colloquially, ‘the May 2-4’ - so-called because a case of beer is...a 2-4), and celebration (if that’s the right word to use in this context) of our soldiers’ sacrifices is Remembrance Day, on November 11.

                            As I understand it, the SW franchise hasn't done well in China.

                              I've heard stories like that, but i haven't heard why exactly this is the case. Many other movies do well in china and make a considerable profit there, so Star Wars is a bit of an odd one out.
