I am hoping it will be “Ratatouille”...I can't stand Disney/Pixar films....I hope Stardust kicks that damn rat's ass.....
Also I would say it is a safe bet to say Underdog and Nancy Drew will bomb and of the "Big Big" movies I think it will either be Die Hard 4 or Ocean's 13 or possibly Evan Almighty.....

I think OCEAN'S 13 will bomb because seems all lot of people went to see the last one and didn't like it.

I kind of feel like Shrek will do worse than anticpated, but then again I'm not a huge fan of the first two and might be biased. I definitely feel no urge to see yet another ungainly bunch of pop-culture riffs jammed into a fairy tale homage.

With year round schedules who the fuck knows when kids are in or out of school these days?

Or you get the elderly couple who for some reason can only afford one hearing aid and so one of them has to yell to the other what is going on in the film. That is when she isn't screaming about how bad of an influence these characters are to their youth.

Never underestimate the spending power of suburban 10- to 14-year old girls and their mothers.

So I guess Grindhouse and Zodiac were two big failures.

Well, on one hand it's going to be competing with two other $400+ Million franchises in May, but on the other hand, there are no other kids' movies coming out in the whole month.

Yes. While Wild Hogs was a success.

What a world.

I have a feeling Kickin' It Old Skool will be somewhat of a cult favorite once it hits DVD. My friends and I agreed when we saw it at the drive-in last night that it was like a live action version of Family Guy with weird obscure references everywhere with nothing to back them up.

I also enjoyed it because it happened to be one of the most mean-spirited PG-13 films ever printed on film, but then again, I'm kind of a prick.
