Considering the orignal made 80 Million domestically in 1979 with an R-Rating and by today's standards would be around 200 Million, then I don't see why it couldn't..

That's IF the movie opens on Thursday like Moviehole.net stated.. If it still opens on Friday, then I say 50 Million, give or take 1-2 Million hit or miss cause I never go for the exact number when betting on box office like I did The RING II..

I can't quite explain, but I just think this is going to be more popular than TCM Remake was and exceed everyone's predictions for it and I think this is critic proof.. We'll see in 3 days..

You saw em when you were a kid?? Christ, your a kid now aren't you?? How old are you?? Considering the movie is 25 years old, that would've put you at being very small and young when this came out to even remember this movie??

Go ahead.. Your all the one's highly underestimating this movie, not me.. This is the same thing you all did before the RING II came out and how all of you said that it was impossible for the RING II to make anything under 50 Million for it's opening weekend and look what happened?? Look what it made and I was right.. I'm telling ya right now: You have no idea how popular this movie is going to be this weekend and it's critic proof..

By comparison, the original Exorcist's gross would adjust to roughly $600 million domestically, and yet Exorcist: The Beginning managed a total of $70 million worldwide.

:laugh: When you think about it, that's pretty damn funny.. Oh check this out: Apparently this Paul Schrader wants to release the Exorcist IV back in theatres on get this?? May 20th the day after ROTS comes out according to Bloody Disgusting.. They thought the movie didn't make $$$ before, there sure to be fucked if they go up against Lucas and ROTS.. Whoever is responsible for this clusterfuck of a decision at WB will be fired tomorrow morning.. :laugh:
