The opening weekend for Star Wars: The Force Awakens is officially the biggest in North American box office history.

Its first weekend in theaters, the seventh film of the beloved franchise brought in $238 million, the Associated Press reports. The previous record-holder was Jurassic World, which made $208.8 million during its debut weekend over the summer.

Globally, Star Wars brought in $517 million, coming in just under the $525 million that Jurassic World made. However, the latter had the advantage of opening in China as well; The Force Awakens doesn’t come out there until Jan. 9.

No one's surprised, but it's been confirmed.

This could very well beat Avatar.

I still have to see it myself, but it'll probably be awhile.

But I guess in the end -- Sort of feels like everyday its harder to stay happy where you are. There are all these ways to look through the fence into your neighbor's yard.

Why even risk it? its safer to stay distant.
Very nice

It is so damn good. You keep thinking about it days later. And we have no freakin' idea what will happen in the next one. That ending scene for those that haven't seen it; chills every time I saw it. Now I'm listening to the soundtrack, which at first I thought was underwhelming; it is more subtle than any other movie and I'm appreciating it more. "Rey's Theme" is the most memorable.

Pretty sure no one actually says "TFA" out loud. Just like no one says "RoTJ" out loud.

We call it "Episode 7" or "The Force Awakens".

TFA is fine in a non-verbal context.

Kind of a shame in my opinion.
