I have to say that history
has proven mid-range fantasies that "try" to attempt the success of
Harry Potter but are based on much lesser known source material haven't
done hot business in the past. The most it can hope to match is
Terabithia, but I'm thinking more like Spiderwick/Eragon/Golden
Compass, or less.
Spiderwick Chronicles $71,195,053(Domestic) The Golden Compass $70,107,728(Domestic) Eragon $75,030,163(Domestic)
Percy Jackson might may somewhere between 55-80mil domestically if the above are anything to go by,those numbers wouldn't be anything special at all and to answer the original question i think the buzz is low right now
