Star Wars
Star Wars builds an impressive record against weaker competition — then loses it in the late rounds. At 53% overall, the number flatters it slightly. The film that invented the modern blockbuster carries institutional weight no competitor can match. The question is whether reverence translates to active preference, or whether voters treat it as the safe pick they feel obligated to make. 1.2s average. Quick enough to suggest a snap judgment, slow enough to involve a flicker of thought.
Synopsis
Princess Leia is captured and held hostage by the evil Imperial forces in their effort to take over the galactic Empire. Venturesome Luke Skywalker and dashing captain Han Solo team together with the loveable robot duo R2-D2 and C-3PO to rescue the beautiful princess and restore peace and justice in the Empire.
First impressions are Star Wars's best weapon — 67% in the opening round is its peak. The semis dip to 33%, the final recovers to 50%, but that opening number remains the high-water mark.
The extremes tell a clear story — 67% against The Grand Budapest Hotel at one end, 24% against Jurassic Park at the other.
