    When do you guys think they will make an official announcement regarding whether or not they will go forward with the sequels? This franchise feels like its got a lot of money-making potential – obviously in the overseas markets, and I hope Warner Bros./Time Warner is smart enough to see that!

    The little movie that could! haha

    The director indicated that performing well in Japan was very important so, I suspect, sometime after that-late spring perhaps.

    Apparently this is very good. The BO of sneak previews was 159% better than “Night at the Museum”.
    The projected total $50M takes compares with:

    “Spirited Away” = $229M
    “Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix” = $80M
    “Casino Royale” = $19M
    “Eragon” = $15M
    “Stardust” = $3M
    “BRIDGE TO TERABITHIA” = $1.6M
