I really see ROTS ending up in 7th all time. I think that there is a strong chance it could make another $20 million in the next couple of months. There is a lot of movies coming out to take away from the box office of ROTS, but it can make it. I have told all of my friends from the beginning that it would top out around $375 million, but let us hope for a little more than that.

considering your posted list and how amazingly good (not)
TPM was, ROTS should at least get that high,

 

TPM was a different beast alltogether. There was a 16 year build-up to it and people saw it over and over again because of that. It also played in a summer where it dominated everything the entire 3 months of release. It was an anomoly. ROTS will not reach those heights. It would be cool to see it break the $400 million mark, but I just do not think that it will happen.

Well I have it on good authority that RotS will make at least 16 more dollars next week. My mom has finally decided she wants to go, since the crowds have gone to other movies (F4? anyone, anyone?). And she has to take me with her because, despite having seen the first two PT's with me, and watching them at home countless times... she's still lost. So that's a bit more money. And my Aunt's fiance and his son still have to go sometime soon and they're ticket prices are higher than ours I think so there's another 20 or 30 bucks.

I just really wanted to beat the pants off Titanic...

 

ref,
TPM was a different beast alltogether

Yeah, you are right about this, especially the beast part

ref,

beat the pants off Titanic
