Ghosts of Christmas Present

Taking most people by surprise, we had some movies halt today since they arrived in theatres everywhere this Christmas Day.

As far as KIDS Fund is concerned, we're only really interested in two of them: Marley & Me (MARLY), Bedtime Stories (BEDTM).

We at one time had Marley short, but the stubborn dog movie kept going up and up.  Fortunately we adjusted our position once things really started heating up and have 400k in profits to show for it.

Very-very-very early word has it that Marley is kicking ass and taking names despite a campaign by vandals to spoil an important plot point of the film

As for Adam Sandler, Colin and I's boycot of his films nonewithstanding, we decided it'd be best to long Bedtime Stories.  Unsure of exactly how well the film would do, a long position is typically safer than shorting something that can possibly break out big.

On a Walden-Hatey note: Disney recently backed out of co-producing the third Narnia film (NARN3) and we were right there ready to kick dirt in Walden's eyes with a short position.  While we really hate to see hottie Ben Barnes cry, we have to admit, sobbing only makes him look that much hotter.

Finally, despite the always appealing Jonas Brothers starring in the picture, we only have a radar share of the recently IPOed Walter the Farting Dog (WFDOG).
