I think we all know I watched it.
Disney is requiring theaters to show The Last Jedi in their largest auditorium for a minimum of 4 weeks, and will receive about 65% of ticket-sales revenue. Violators will face an addition 5% sales charge.
“There’s a finite number of moviegoers in my market, and I can service all of them in a couple of weeks,” said Lee Akin, who operates a single-screen theater in Elkader, Iowa (population: 1,213).
I could see this being the biggest movie for 4 weeks in a row. I bet Sheldon would have left it in the biggest theater regardless. That is a good point about a single theater in a small town though, after 2 weeks everyone who wants to see it in that town is going to see it. I guess in that case it might be worth looking into breaking the deal.

So... we should boycot Disney movies?
Are a bad thing and should not be posted here.
Going to this on Sunday. Maybe I'll try to find a showing tonight or tomorrow morning too.
There are a couple really late ones that still have tickets available. Depends how late I want to be up.
Now they're all sold out.
I saw it last night. It’s pretty good. I won’t say anything else.

Woah James! My boss is also a big SW fanboy who went into it with low expectations and they were not met either.
Wags, you're a fanboy, did you like it?
Maybe my problem was I went in with high expectations.
I enjoyed it but there was a lot of very gimmicky attempts at comedy, some worked, a lot didn't. I'll probably see it again to really find out how much I like it.
I still don't know how they're going to handle Carrie Fischer's role. I read there was a tribute to her after the credits so I stuck around but they didn't have it.
