Revised Weekend Predictions for the King

December 19, 2003

Thursday's box office for Lord of the Rings: Return of the King was a little lower than expected at $17 million. That's a drop of just over 50% compared to the little more than 47% predicted. So what does this mean for the weekend prediction? $75 million will still be obtainable, just not as likely. But anything more than $70 million would mean it is still on pace to match earlier predictions.
