Lalaith.. yes I see that. Only three days of revenues in Great Britain for example. I also see that it will not even open in Japan until next March and that should be another 50 mil or so in the coffers. So the film will get its budget back but will it get the twice over budget necessary to break even? I guess time will tell. But I still cannot see New Line laying out another $100+ million for a sequel with the 2 more Middle-earth movies on their plate and big budgets for those.
