Star Wars: Rogue Squadron
"Rogue Squadron" received generally positive reviews. Critics praised the game's technical achievements and flight controls, but its use of distance fog and the lack of a multiplayer mode drew criticism. The game's sales exceeded expectations; by August 1999, more than one million copies had sold worldwide. It spawned two sequels developed and released for the GameCube—"" and ""—as well as "", a spiritual successor released for Windows and Nintendo 64.
Rogue One
In late November 2016, box office projections for the United States and Canada had the film grossing $100–150 million during its opening weekend. Disney chairman Bob Iger noted that Disney and Lucasfilm did not expect "Rogue One" to match "The Force Awakens" total gross of $2.1 billion, nor its $248 million opening. Pre-sale tickets for the film went on sale at 12:01 AM EST on November 28, 2016. Within 10 minutes, ticket sale sites such as Fandango crashed, much like they had in advance of "The Force Awakens" the year prior. In its first 24 hours, the film had the second-highest number of pre-sale tickets ever sold, behind only "The Force Awakens". Worldwide, the film was expected to gross $280–350 million in its opening weekend.
