At least one thousand dollars! It seems pretty popular.

I don't believe they've released domestic numbers yet. I got this from a Yahoo news item:



<< New Line also opened the film day-and-date in 13 foreign territories, which rang up box office to the tune of $11.6 million. Some of the biggest numbers came from Germany, with $3.5 million, and France, with $1.8 million. >>



Those are pretty impressive numbers from Europe

Here you go

Variety says that, despite its three-hour length, "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" earned at least $17.1 million in its Wednesday bow. The figure could rise when additional North American tallies are collected, the company said this morning.

From the following site:

Thursday update: First day's gross of $18,200,000 announced, a little below expectations.

I find it hard for LOTR to match Harry Potters opening numbers. Considering how many kids watched it over and over. LoTR should still take in at least 20 million me thinks.
