I have to say, the domestic record-breaking run for this seems less exciting than the one for Titanic because it was so very expected that Star Wars 7 had a great shot at beating Avatar.
Like, after opening weekend for Titanic, one box office website was thinking about "a prolonged domestic run that could see Titanic reach $150M." That's how the expectations were for the film that ended up quadrupling that number domestically.
It also hit $1.8 billion globally in its initial run - about double the previous record-holder Jurassic Park, and a number no film has gotten to besides Avatar, 18 years later.
With expectations way higher and the comparison to the reigning record-holder almost certainly being less of a whopper, it just doesn't seem like the same kind of Event of a Lifetime.
Titanic is once in a lifetime the ticket sales show that, But i agree. Wasn't it obvious star wars was going to break avatar domestically, Very happy it has though and its deserved imo
The changes in his face were due to a near-fatal car crash he was in after the first Star Wars. He required a nose job and reconstructive surgery on parts of his face.
Is this for real?!! Mess he looked so good looking in episode 4 I noticed the change in ep 5 but I thought he just got uglier because he was aging. Poor Luke lost his good looks
altho my friend and I were stoned af when we went in to see it and ended up walking into the wrong showtime of the movie and watched the last 20 minutes first my friend doesn't follow Star Wars like I do so she legit just had no idea what was going on, I figured it out like 5 minutes into sitting there and I had to muster up the courage to tell her that we were in the wrong theatre without laughing my ass off

oh i wasn't sure about this either, so did they write his scar into episode 5 at the begining because of his real life accident??
Possibly. Wikipedia just says "Some real scars from the crash made an appearance in The Empire Strikes Back".
Also, he didn't actually have reconstructive surgery.
Quote:
In an episode of children's program Ask Aspel, Hamill stated that the stories surrounding his injuries had become exaggerated. Confirming that he had only broken his nose, Hamill observed that "over the years it's built up into having my face reconstructed with plastic surgery."
Been loving Star Wars so much, that I've been wondering if The Clone Wars is worth a watch?
The Clone Wars movie? no it's not unless you're a big fan because it feels so useless, however the series that followed the movie is worth it, if not all seasons at least the latter seasons. The first and second season are just OK most of the time and had some messy moments but it gets better with each season.

Yeah, the series. Will probably give 'em a try. Thanks!
He played the characters of Han Solo and Indiana Jones, but apparently it doesn't matter how many bad guys you beat, impressing the ladies comes down to one pretty important thing: smoochin' skills. Helen Mirren has said that he is a pretty terrible kisser, and apparently she ain't the only one. Seemingly there is a whole hoard of Hollywood actresses running around the same rumor mill.
"He can’t kiss – he finds it impossible to kiss on screen. He’s probably not very good off screen either. It’s not just me – other actresses agree. Whenever we get chatting off screen and we get around to talking, we come to the same conclusion.’”
No wonder they started the reboot with Han and Leia separated. Carrie probably requested it.

Carrie probably requested it.
