'Narnia' to Chronicle big Box Offic

During the most family intensive period at the nation�s theaters, the timing could not be better for Fox�s The Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader to grab kids and their parents who have made both Tangled and Harry Potter 7 such huge holiday season hits.  This Narnia returns to the time of year that made the first film (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe) such an enormous hit with a $65.6 million number one debut and nearly $300 million in North America. 

 

The second installment (Prince Caspian) made a move to the summer season and though it opened at number one with a solid $55 million, the film was less successful in the long run earning a total of $141 in North America.  Look for Voyage of the Dawn Treader to add yet another number one debut to the franchise track record but with a gross decidedly lower than the first two in the low $30 million range, but strong playability throughout the holidays.

Check out our exclusive 'Narnia' themed comic strip from Francesco Marciuliano.  Francesco writes the internationally-syndicated comic strip �Sally Forth� and the webcomic �Medium Large.� He was the head writer for the PBS series �SeeMore�s Playhouse,� for which one of his episodes won two 2007 Daytime Emmys. He currently writes for the Onion News Network.

Expected to come in a strong second place is the film that pairs the uber-hot Angelina Jolie with that other icon of good looks, Johnny Depp in Sony�s The Tourist.  A re-make of a 2005 French film, the mere pairing of Depp and Jolie will be enough to send fans scampering to the theatre to the tune of a gross in the low $20 million range.  With its international locations, comedic elements and action sequences The Tourist will have solid appeal with adult audiences looking for a fun romp at the theater this weekend.

A film that debuted bigger than expected over Thanksgiving weekend and continues to draw family audiences across the board is Disney�s Tangled which ascended to the number one spot last weekend and will grab a solid third place in this, its third weekend with a gross of just over $10 million and should cross the $110 million mark by the end of the weekend.

Certainly no holiday movie weekend would be complete without a solid dose of �Potter-mania� and fourth place will find Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 continue its climb up the box office chart.  After a second place finish this past weekend, the film climbed back to the top of the chart in the weekday contest and should haul in another $8 million to $10 million for the weekend and thus close in on the $260 million mark in domestic revenue.

The battle for fifth place will pit a burlesque dancer against a runaway train with Sony�s Burlesque in its third weekend and Fox�s Unstoppable in its fifth weekend each expected to earn less than $5 million at the box office.

Notably Paramount�s The Fighter starring Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale (in an Oscar-worthy performance) will open in just four theaters including one in the city of Lowell, Massachusetts where the film is set.  It will expand into around 2,000 theaters on December 17.

Box Office Preview: A $60 million 'Tron' legacy

LOS ANGELES � An especially robust weekend is shaping up at the nation's theaters as fan boys bond with "Tron," families flock to "Yogi," boxing buffs bet on "The Fighter" and the date crowd asks "How Do You Know."

Disney's "Tron: Legacy" has the most going for it, including a great release date, cult appeal and of course the IMAX and 3-D components. So a No. 1 debut approaching an impressive $60 million is virtually assured for this long-awaited followup to the 1982 original. The highest December debut remains 2007's "I Am Legend" with $77.2 million, followed closely by 2009's "Avatar" at $77 million.

Next in the weekend pic-a-nic basket is a smarter-than-the-average-bear named Yogi, voiced by childhood fan Dan Aykroyd, as Warner Bros. gives the beloved Hanna-Barbera TV character a big-screen, 3-D makeover and a chance at an opening gross in the low $20 millions.

After its limited four-theater debut last weekend, Paramount's "The Fighter" was just warming up for an expected opening this weekend in the $15 million range as it expands to approximately 2,200 locations.

Starring Mark Wahlberg, Christian Bale and Melissa Leo, this true story about a pair of pugilistic brothers is a shoo-in for multiple Oscar nominations and is the kind of crowd-pleasing film that could become a breakout hit in the weeks to come.

James L. Brooks directs the likely No. 4 film in the lineup � "How Do You Know," starring Reese Witherspoon, Owen Wilson, Paul Rudd and Jack Nicholson. Despite weak reviews, the all-star cast and Brooks' auteur reputation with such winners as "Terms of Endearment" and "Broadcast News" should draw the date crowd to the tune of around $12 million.

Fifth place should go to Fox's "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader," which opened last weekend in first place but now faces huge competition and will likely earn in the low teens.

Another Oscar contender goes into wider release this weekend as Fox Searchlight's twisted and audacious "Black Swan" waltzes into 950 theaters. A bravura performance by Natalie Portman and mounting awards momentum give the film a shot at a wide-release debut in the $8 million to $10 million range.
