Catching Fire will be the top grosser of the rest of the year, and maybe even tops for the year.

I think it will hav a lot of people who skipped the original in theaters. But it could have a lot of competition from The Hobbit part 2. The rest have no chance. Harrison ford is not trustworthy. I doubt it will make budget in AMerica. Maybe World wide. Of course, there could be a surprise. DM2 surprised, The heat surprised, THe Conjuring surprised. Just not big enough.

Not sure that they are really competition for each other.  Hobbit is more of a niche(even though it will hit $250Mil +) and hits the male demo.  Where as Catching Fire is very broad in its demo.  Hobbit 1 dissapointed and i think 2 will as well - thus my $250 guess.  I think Catching Fire will hit $400 mil +.
