Shark Tale huh.

well at least there are some Disney titles there!
And The Notebook and Napoleon !

[orestes.]

Interesting numbers. I'm sort of surprised Shark Tale is tops on the Year-to-Date chart but the year is still young and it didn't have too much competition. I would have thought Ray and The Notebook would have been higher though.
