 Re: Final Gross: Star Trek will make more than Avatar Club
News from Comic-Con: Free preview in IMAX on August 21st. Trailer will come out then too. So less than 4 months from first trailer to release.
Reactions are mostly incredibly fanboy praise, there are a few claims of video gamey and cartoony though.

I don't care if you leave, this club is still open. And when this club succeeds, you will be the ultimate form of FAIL.

 Re: Final Gross: Star Trek will make more than Avatar Club
Avatar should pass Star Trek around its 12th day of release or so.
So let's say Dec 29th. A late Christmas present.

 Re: Final Gross: Star Trek will make more than Avatar Club
Avatar will certainly open bigger than both I Am Legend (77mil) and ROTK (72mil). Midnights guarantees this, IMAX 3D guarantees this, surely an insane theatre count guarantees this. Cameron and Fox aren't fucking around.
Golden Globes will be announced on Dec 15th, prior to Avatar's release. It could very well be nominated for Best Picture, which adds an entire new dimension to the type of people seeing it opening weekend.
Short of a meteorite crashing into North America or swine flu decimating parts of the country, there's very little chance of Avatar not surpassing Star Trek. You can talk all you want about how it wont cross the truly epic box office benchmarks. But 250 million, that's really funny.

 Re: Final Gross: Star Trek will make more than Avatar Club
I predict that when Avatar stalls at a solid $225m or so, JJ Abrams is going to teabag James Cameron.

 Re: Final Gross: Star Trek will make more than Avatar Club
Trek was a high quality film. The best reboot so far. Hopefully Trek 2 will be in 3-d
