Star Wars 7 Crushed the Titanic in North America
The movie "Star Wars: Episode 7 - The Force Awakens" chalked up another historic achievement - ousted the drama "Titanic" from the second place in the list of the highest grossing movie projects in the history of American box office. Thus, the record fell, which lasted for many years. On Friday, January 1, 2016, the seventh episode of Star Wars grossed an additional $ 35 million at home, and its cumulative gross reached $ 687 million. At one time, "Titanic" finished with a score of $ 658 million. The only competitor in the North American box office was Avatar, which earned $ 760 million. Most likely, by the end of the next weekend "Star Wars 7" will come close to this result. At the world box office, the picture has earned more than $ 1.3 billion at the time of this writing. In the absence of comparable competitors, the promotion of "Star Wars 7" in the ranking of the highest grossing movie projects in the history of cinema will certainly continue. It should be noted that the movie has not yet started in the Chinese box office, as the quota for foreign movies in 2015 was exhausted. In China, Episode 7 will air on January 9, 2016.
