oh my all of my predictions are SO off

Howl's Moving Castle $23.7 M
Herbie: Fully Loaded $65.8 M
Sky High $60.6 M
Valiant $68 M
The Greatest Game Ever Played $20.4 M
Chicken Little $200 M (I liked it that much!)
The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe $235 M
Glory Road $28 M
The Shaggy Dog $82.4 M

I think Disney Movies will earn a Lot this year

I'm going to introduce a couple more early 2006 movies for predicting now. You'll be able to revise them of course. More information on all these films is available here: http://www.ultimatedisney.com/intheaters.html

Predictions can be added for the following:
<b>Roving Mars</b> (January 27)
<b>Antarctica</b> (February 17)

Roving Mars $5
Antarctica $80

Is Roving Mars supposed to be a small movie like Aliens of the Deep?

I wouldn't classify such "Large Format" movies as small, but on the other hand, I would say Pals' guesstimate seems much higher than what I would predict.

Chicken Little: $145 million

Herbie: Fully loaded: $80 million

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe: $275 million.

My predictions:
Roving Mars $4 M
Antarctica $50 M

Once again, MMP, you're not updating your predictions the correct way. Yes, I do see it, but unless you actually revise with a new reply, your $60 prediction on <i>Roving Mars</i> is standing, as are all of your original numbers.

With miniscule increases for everything, it's not worth the effort to do a fully-formatted updates. No leader changes, although <i>Aliens of the Deep</i> is slowly approaching one. <i>Hitchhiker's</i> looks to cash out at around $50 M, which was far less than anyone predicted and less than half of many of our numbers. ($50 M is only slightly more than double what it made in its first three days of release.)

I'm revising my prediction for <i>Howl's Moving Castle</i>: $8.5 million. Last chance for everyone else to is this Thursday, as it opens in a few dozen theaters this Friday.

It'll be hard to say what movie will bring in what-but I am guessing The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe will be the highest grossing film for Disney this year- by far....

Unless the new star wars movie is disney too? Not too sure about that, if anyone knows-im sure most of u know... but i dont.
