I don't think the other movies had any real competition other than 
LOTR. Which is pretty major competition but, it's only one movie.
I think Goblet of Fire will be fine since I believe its scheduled 
for Nov 05. Probably a good thing since Star Wars should be the 
summer movie to beat next year... and Indy 4... maybe Austin Powers 
and the revenge of the Acid Washed Jeans? He's only got the 80s 
left, right?

I think PoA will eventually hit the 300M mark in the States and 
tally up a good 800-1B around the world.
