Somehow I can't find a prediction thread for this, so I'm creating one.

Anyway, I know people keep saying this isn't mainstream because so much of the film has minimal dialogue, but the thing is few people will actually know this, because the film is being sold largely on WALL-E cuteness, and that's a damn good thing to sell a movie on. The only major animated film this summer is Kung Fu Panda, a film with little buzz right now, so there won't be that much competition for buzz among kids, especially as much as Ratatouille faced last year with Shrek and Harry Potter. At the moment, a gross between The Incredibles and Finding Nemo sounds good.

Opening: $66.2 million
Total: $275.7 million (4.17)

This could go anywhere from being Pixar's smallest to Pixar's biggest. I have no fucking clue.

Kung-Fu Panda comes out three weeks ahead of it and Hulk and Get Smart are both aiming for different audiences. None of those movies pose much of a threat or competition.

You think Hulk is going to affect his movie? Kids would rather go see a cute little Robot then a Green Monster.

Anyway

65/305 Closing. ( I expect it to have good Legs)

Well that's True Shrek was a Green Monster however Shrek was a Kids Movie. The Hulk will be PG-13 where Wall-E will be Rated G or PG.

Hulk will have about as much effect on Wall-E as a bear shitting in the woods does.

I don't know Thaidy. I just feel Horton has a lot more going for it.

- Dr. Seuss' name.
-Completely empty marketplace. Additionally, it's the first kids flick in ages.
-Good reviews and the big voice cast
- It actually looks great.

On the other hand...

-Since The Incredibles, each Pixar film has opened than the one before it. I don't know why that would change now.
- I don't think a film whose first 40 minutes are dialog-free would be a big hit among kids.
- Tons of competition before and after its release.
- We all know what happened to the last CGI film about robots.
