I would bet that this will be at least a $300 million box office film in the US. Its tough to compare it to the Matrix films and their like as they attract a teen to twentysomething audience that HAS to see it immediately. I would suspect that The Passion box office will probably fall off 30% each week until Holy Week (most films fall about 40% each week) but that for the weekend of Good Friday, it may post almost the same as it did for the opening 3-day showing.

The interesting question to me is whether it passes Titanic at $600 million US.
