Sorry, Star Wars haters. I know some of you like to pretend that you wouldn’t be the first fans to line up for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, but it looks like ticket sales are proving otherwise. At the end of the day, this is the grand end to a mammoth saga that has spanned decades, and as Fandango advance ticket sales have proven, it’s something that can’t be missed.

According to the ticket sales service, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker sold more tickets than any other Star Wars film in its opening hours. In fact, yesterday, the film represented more than half of the day’s ticket sales total.

“Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is blasting through all current and upcoming new releases, with massive presales on Fandango,” Fandango Managing Editor Erik Davis said. “Film fans are excited to see what’s in store for Rey, Finn, Poe, Kylo Ren and the rest of their favorite Star Wars characters in this final chapter of the Skywalker saga, especially with director J.J. Abrams at the helm.”

Atom Tickets also states the film has broken their own records in the first 24 hours, with Avengers: Endgame being the only movie outperforming The Rise of Skywalker in that time period. In short, in spite of fan claims, it looks like this final chapter in the Skywalker Saga will be one of the most seen events of the year, at the very least.
