I think they're going to feel some pain for the 3 Hobbit movies thing. This movie looks like 40 minutes of stuff happening + 2 hours of singing/drinking/walking scenes. I'm betting the under on the Hobbit |

Under $250m would be crrrrazzyy. Even Fellowship adjusts to $437m and this has 3D. |

Aint happening considering there arent any other popcorn flicks in december as the alternative. Besides you are assuming close to an adjusted 50% drop from ROTK |

Nope that is not happening. This somehow seems even weirder than Excel's $300m club. |

$250 mil seems a little high - - but what the heck - - I'm in! |

Fat chance. If you look at the release schedule, The Hobbit as a family-friendly effects-driven film has nothing in the way over the Christmas and New Year holidays. Even it opens to a modest $60mil, its legs will likely carry it to over $250mil. |

I'm with the consensus here, I don't see it happening. It'll cruise past 250M. |

Though $250M may be a bit too low of a gross, this is not going to be the Top-10 all-time film a lot of people are thinking it'll be |

No not under $250m. The first one should be big regardless but the 2nd/3rd could be hurt if the first one feels like filler. Singing/Drinking/Walking scenes wont appeal to mass audiences so WOM would hurt the follow-up but less so the first film. Still we dont know how good the film is yet. 350m seems to be the minimum. |

This is a fail. Only way this succeeds is if the film gets panned by critics and audiences. Of choose it won't though. |

Mighty ballsy. I'm in for an under 300m club, but 250m is a tad extreme right now. People, when will you learn throwing out "that's a drop of MASSIVE% from predecessor" has been faulted again and again. It also does not have a better chance at 500m than less than 250m. Have people read the Hobbit? Or are they basing their predictions on the LOTR trilogy and/or LOTR books? That's a big and often error. Does anyone have any idea what the first half could include? They're splitting it into three fucking movies and how long is it? A fifth the size of LOTR? The writing is on the wall. I think this faith is admirable but misplaced. I hope Jackson can make a wonderful movie and prove me wrong but under 300m is more than likely where I'm standing. |

If this club was "under $300M", I might be in. But $250M, no. Surely Hobbit shouldn't have too much trouble doing $35M more than King Kong. |
