They're now saying Rise of Skywalker will bring in $175.5 million for the weekend. Down from the previous 2, and less than Endgame and The Lion King did earlier this year, but still one of the biggest opening weekends of all time.

This does put RoS into 10th place for the year, which gives Disney 7 of the top 10 movies of the year (plus Spider-Man -- so kind of 8/10).

Frozen 2 is less than $5 million behind Far From Home. Once it passes, Disney will have a complete stranglehold on the top-5 for the year (with RoS moving up there eventually for a total Disney top-6).

The top-10 for the year is now entirely made up of sequels, remakes, and/or franchise films. Not one original story is in the top-10. 3 MCU films, 2 Disney remakes, 2 Disney animated sequels, 2 killer clowns, and a Star Wars sequel (in a pear tree).
