There is definitely no "a" in definite.

NarniaFans has a good post about early box office speculation:

I think a lot of people are curious about how VDT will open.
Well not many people know about the movie since Fox isnt marketing it (at least not well).
If we want this movie to have an opening, we need to be telling people about it and give the movie good buzz.

Definitely! Aslan's country made a FB event and I invited all my freinds... so hopefully that helped a little...

I put in the 500-600 million dollar camp.
Which a lot of people seem to agree with.
I voted 4-5 million. I wish it would make more, but... it just doesn't seem to be doing the advertising it should be doing. Hopefully, I'll be proven wrong though!

I just saw on Boxofficemojo that in the Derby they predict that VDT will make 48.4 million opening weeked. they aren't always accruate, but they are usually pretty close. I think this is awesome because I was worried it would turn out to be closer to Eragon, His Dark Materials, or the Spiderwick Chronicles. I am going to try and see VDT on saturday and sunday of opening weekend cause I have a Christmas Party on friday that I can't miss.
If it can make over 45 million opening weekend that is good because it has a lower margin for sucess because they spent A LOT less on advertising (which makes me a bit nervous) and it has a lower production budget.
I feel like the hugest nerd but I am worried that VDT wont' be successful and it is stressing me out. lol.

Whereas I don't think that's terribly awesome because that's significantly less than PC's opening numbers and VDT needs to do better. I'm still hoping that reflects 2D ticket sales and not both 3D and 2D. Guess we'll find out this weekend.

I wouldn't say that it is significantly less than PC....its only about 7 million less. Where PC was 10 million less than LWW.
I would say that the 48.4 Million takes into account 3D and 2D. A lot of the promotion for VDT has been that is is coming out in 3D, so I think that boxofficemojo knows to take that into account.
I dont' think its that awesome either, but it def isn't worst case senario. I think that even if VDT has a lower opening than PC it will have a higher final gross because of the time of year and the competition. Also I think that when school is out for the holidays VDT will have good hold overs from week to week. I am hoping that it makes at least between 150 -170 million domestically. I think that attendance will down, but it will make more money because of increased ticket prices.
Lol... well I think it could possibly get into the 500-600 range, I think it's only gonna do 400-500... 450 is still doing better than PC so yeah. I think anything above 600 is pretty much a pipe dream at this point. 3D or not...
