Rush Hour 3 isnt being released in 2005 and you are really underestimating its numbers by putting it up in the air after the last one made over 230 million dollars. Rarely any movies have dropped that much from their previous predeccessor unless you count Jaws and Exorcist. If anything should be up in the air it would be Fantastic Four since its up against WOW and its costuming looks rather cheesy

It could be because there was problems in production. Directors quitting, the original director not returning, and delayed production. Those usually spell a bad sign for the quality of the movie

In 2005, how many 100m dollar films do you think we will round up? Will we break records ala 2003, or fail to live up to previous benchmakrs ala 2004? Just like 2003 and 2004 before, list the films you think have the chances to hit 100m as we go through the year.... Locks: Madagascar The War of the Worlds Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire King Kong Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Batman Begins Chronicles of Narnia Star Wars: Episode III . Very Good Chances Chicken Little Hitchhiker's Guide Hitch Robots Best Picture Winner The Longest Yard Good Chance The Ring 2 Constantine Kingdom of Heaven Sin City Fantastic Four Be Cool The Legend of Zorro Limited Chance Cinderella Man The Producers Elizabeth Town Elektra Racing Stripes Bewitched Pinkpanther Up in the Air - Will it Open? Rush Hour 3

Wasn't Cars delayed until 2006? Also, What about the Chronicles of Narnia, where does that go?

Post subject:
Yeah, Cars is delayed to May 2006, and yes, Narnia is a lock for 100M.

I would give The Ring 2 a lock for $100 million myself.

Post subject:
I think that the ring will do very well, but I am hesitant to call it a 100m lock. Feel free to make your own list, too, with your preferences.

I'll do one a little later, I have to take a look at what exactly is coming out.

King Kong isn't a lock for $100m - mark my words! But on the other side: Robots should be a lock for at least $100m!

Rush Hour 3 isnt being released in 2005 and you are really underestimating its numbers by putting it up in the air after the last one made over 230 million dollars. Rarely any movies have dropped that much from their previous predeccessor unless you count Jaws and Exorcist. If anything should be up in the air it would be Fantastic Four since its up against WOW and its costuming looks rather cheesy

I am sure it will make 100m.

Stranger things have happened...

I think it will open to $47 million, then drop 50% in its second weekend, but easily pass $100 million if not $150 million.
