Horton Hears Some Hope!

Horton didn't hear the sweet pitter-patter of little moviegoers last weekend, but with nearly $4 million per weeknight, hope remains for good legs. With essentially no good children's movies out, I predict another $4 million on Thursday, and $30 million weekend putting it at around $90 million by Monday. Looks like we'll be getting pretty close to that golden $100 million mark!

10,000 BC, although no Day After Tomorrow, still has been bringing in steady bread with a $65 million box office total heading into what I assume will be a $15 million weekend. It'll be a close finish, but I doubt 10KBC will make 100M.

Finally, our new movie Drillbit Taylor opens Friday, hoping to woo over bored middle-schoolers with Owen Wilson. I don't think they've thought their plan through. If it had been Elisha Cuthbert kicking middle school butt I may have felt more than a $10 million opening weekend were in order, but all bets are off with a crook-nosed, middle aged lead. I mean, when has Owen Wilson ever carried a movie on his own?

So there it is - KIDS Fund attempts to get to .500 for the season, and we continue to make money regardless! Happy trading!
