Even with all the worries of how a Star Wars spinoff movie would perform and concerns about the reshoots that occurred over the summer, Rogue One has made quite the name for itself.
Before anyone gets the wrong idea, this information isn’t saying that Rogue One is better than any of the original Star Wars movies from a critical perspective.
However, money-wise, this is a tremendous accomplishment, especially when you consider that this is the Star Wars movie that’s neither connected to a main trilogy nor Skywalker-centric.
It’s also further proof that since being absorbed into the Disney family, the Star Wars franchise has found a comfortable home in December.
