There is no way they will make this Red Carpet Premiere anywhere near the mega-sized event TFA's was, or spend as much money on it. They spent crazy money on the TFA premiere (in the millions of dollars). That one literally shut down 4 full blocks of Hollywood Blvd for 3 days so that they could build a tent over the entire street. That became the red carpet. Inside was done up like the inside of a Star Wars set. It was the biggest event in Hollywood history in size and scope. Bigger than the Oscars.
That said, Red Carpet Premieres have little to no effect on box office.
