It's going to be close, but it might make it in spite of the fact that the number of theaters playing BBM is in decline. According to boxofficemojo.com,

DECLINING
Brokeback Mountain (Focus Features) / 1,963 (-126) / 10

Still, as of 10 February, the figures show:

Domestic:         $63,586,000      67.2%
+ Overseas:      $31,000,000      32.8%
= Worldwide:    $94,586,000

Go, Brokeback, GO!!!

The latest figures, as of 15 February, show:

Domestic:           $67,821,000      63.5%
+ Overseas:        $39,000,000     36.5%
= Worldwide:    $106,821,000

So, in spite of all the doom-sayers, our BBM has passed the $100 million mark! At last. Now, on to our next goal! I'm hoping that, by Oscars night, BBM will have passed $100 million domestic and $50 million overseas.

I am not too sure about the next statement, however maybe someone can search and confirm if my account is right, about a week ago I went to a website where they stated the gross total revenues for each of the Oscars nominated movies, but lost track of the site, and if am right I calculated that when Brokeback Mountain would reach over 100million it would have surpass the entire combined gross revenues of all 4 others nomination over and backwards. and by the trend picking up towards the Oscars it would not suprise me it  would reach another 30 to 40 million worldwide.
