Let's do some math here...

Avatar will be re-released in more than 31 different territories.

If Avatar were to gross $1.5 million in every country on it's opening weekend, that would be $46 million total. If it were to gross $800 thousand in every country on it's second weekend, that would be $24.8 million.

If Avatar were to gross a minimum of $300 thousand in all territories during weekdays for two weeks (10 days), that would be $93 million.

Considering these numbers, I'd say Avatar has a fair chance of reaching $3 billion, but it really depends on just how long it lasts in theaters.

175 Theaters. I think it will be able to hit 3-Billion.

Experts say about 8.2 mil for opening weekend.

Only 8.2? That is more than most movies make on their opening weekend.

The re-release is only being shown at roughly 1,400 3D screens, whereas the initial release had 2,038 with an additional 5,000 2D screens. Not to mention it was more "fresh" and new, whereas the re-release mostly appeals to fans, not the every-day movie-goer.

On Avatar's initial release, it grossed $77 million on the weekend, but this came from approximately 7,000 screens at 3,452 theaters. 2,038 of those theaters being 3D, which is where 58% of it's gross came from.

That's just an estimate from Box Office Mojo. Though, usually with BOM, their estimations are very accurate.

I blame the anti-Avatar backlash.

It may be due to the fact Avatar has been in theaters for close to nine months and a majority of people have lost all interest. I remember looking at Avatar's Facebook and people saying they were tired of hearing about the film, though there were still plenty of others who couldn't wait to see the re-release.

Who knows... the re-release may pull the same thing Avatar pulled on it's initial release. People may find more interest in it once word goes around about the new footage.

Over the weekend, Avatar grossed $4,007,750 domestically and an estimated $7,260,418 internationally. That's not bad, but with numbers like these, I find it hard to imagine Avatar hitting $3 billion. Even $2.850 billion seems like a long shot.

Hopefully the re-release will gather more interest over the coming week. I know I'll be contributing another $11 something this week.
