    Looks like the naysayers will need to pin their hopes on Ratatoulli, now.

Now we just need those wonderful Wall Street analysts that predicted doom and gloom for Cars to help get Disney's stock price back up and beyond 31 (close to where the stock was prior to Cars' opening weekend).

    Nemo was HUGE, bringing in $339,714,978 domestically. No way will Cars touch that, but I think Disney will reap far more merchandise sales from Cars than Nemo... go ahaed, I dare you to find the Cars die-cast toys at the store! They are FLYING off the shelves. I mean come-on, what little kid doesn't play with cars?!

    According to the internet movie database, Emperor finished at a disapponiting $89,296,573. I say disappointing because the production costs for the movie were higher than the gross box office receipts.
