Wkd Prediction: ‘Narnia 2′ To Total $80M

By NIKKI FINKE | Thursday May 15, 2008 @ 11:00am PDTTags: Box Office, Disney/Walden Media, Movies, Studios, Summer Movies, The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian, Tracking

That’s the number — $80 million — which my box office gurus are estimating for The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian‘s 3-day weekend haul. Showings of the joint Disney/Walden Media fantasy pic start in major outlets among the 3,929 theaters at 12:01 AM Friday, but of course the major moolah will be made during Saturday and Sunday kiddie matinees. I’ll have a more complete analysis later.

I saw it and really like it. It was a screening filled with kids who were going crazy. I haven’t seen the other one, but this looks like a hit.

Just caught a show earlier today here in Las Vegas. Packed house, lots of enthusiasm. $80 million sounds right – this one is going to be a big hit.

the first film built over a 2 month period and held steady the first few weeks. if i remember correctly, it came in second opening weekend behind king kong (which faded quickly).

this comes from a c.s. lewis fan.
