So what exactly is the story here? The story is that John Spartan is a drooling idiot posting conspiracy theories with zero evidence. It's kind of his thing around here.

Disney once claimed they made 6 billion more in revenues.

So what is the story? A Star Wars film has huge advance ticket sales? A major studio has a stake in a ticketing company...like every other major ticketing company (especially Fandango)? That it has the second highest sales in advance rather than the top? You don't like the new Star Wars films and will rail against anything that may indicate they are popular with others?

I'm just commenting on Disney's shenanigans as they play out in real time. Disney will do anything to give the appearance that they haven't mismanaged Star Wars.

Seen no shenannigans here.If your film has huge presales why not talk about it. It's called marketing. Every studio would do it.

It's the finale of the current Star Wars trilogy. It will most likely do very well at the box office.

don't be an idiot, Atom Tickets is a new company that is growing each year. So growth in ticket sales is expected. That doesn't make Star Wars sales impressive. Personally we should wait for fandango to report ticket sales, if they are below TLJ , that would be concerning.

Probably quite a hard task for John Spartan.

I will say this much...I have no idea what the overall presale numbers will be (though I'd expect them to be big), but when I bought my ticket yesterday (probably 12 hours after they'd already been on sale) the theater was virtually empty. Granted, I bought them for Xmas Eve morning because they were cheap and I refuse to pay full price for this thing. But therein is part of my point...tickets are $5.00 on Tuesdays at the chain I bought from, it's an 11:30 showing so not really early, and everybody is off school that day. Yet there were seriously only a handful of seats that had been sold after being on sale for half a day. I thought that was pretty strange.

But how many other massive films have you tried to buy a ticket for showing on Christmas Eve 5 days after its release date? It's only really odd if you have something to compare it to. On the rare occaisions I have bough advanced tickets for massive films I've never had problems getting seats for shows 3 or 4 days after release, days after they start selling. Plus the target audience for that time of day during a school break don't really have credit cards to buy their tickets. It's not really up to them if they can skulk off to the cinema when other family plans may be or are being arranged (I'm sure this doesn't make a huge dent in the numbers but it is one consideration)

Lol at never hearing of Atom Tickets
Lol at pretending Disney owns them.
