What is the latest box office sales number that has been crossed by The Force Awakens you ask? How about the $700 million global mark. Will we hit the $1 billion mark by the end of this holiday weekend? Looks pretty damn good to me… 

“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” showed no signs of slowing down, heading into what is expected to be a hugely profitable Christmas holiday.

The seventh film in the space opera saga earned $38.1 million on Wednesday, pushing its domestic haul to $363.5 million. Internationally, the film picked up $38.4 million, bringing its global box office receipts to $765.9 million worldwide. At this rate, “The Force Awakens” is outpacing the likes of “Avatar” and “Jurassic World,” emboldening analysts to project it will end its run as one of the highest grossing films in history. The film should earn $1 billion by the end of the week, making it the fastest picture to breathe that rarefied air.
