Well its close enough to $800 million now that its pretty much guaranteed to make more then a billion world wide eventually. Plus it looks like it will get released in China after all since imdb now lists a September 13th release date for it.

It's $40M away from $800M and that's 60% from its worldwide gross this week-end.

China will be deciding factor now as long as it does slightly better there then DM2 it will hit a billion world wide.  But actually if its legs stay decent it already could be at one billion by the time it opens there on September 13th.
