    I am making this thread so that we have a rough idea as to what movies will release a week before and a week after Dragonball that could potentially eat into its boxoffice or hurt opening weekend.

    March 27th
    Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - A sony picture animation movie
    Monsters vs. Aliens - A dreamworks big budget animation movie

    April 10
    Case 39 - Some horror & thriller movie from paramount
    Old Dogs - Comedy movie from Walt Disney. Sounds like Wild Hogs prequel.


    Will keep updating.

    Well looking at the list , the only competition here is Monsters vs Aliens.
    We haven't seen any footage yet but this movie was in competition with Avatar before both their release dates got shifted. MvA is a big movie for sony ( mostly due to it being a 3-D movie). And don't tell me that no name animated movies are no competition. In 2002 , Lilo and Stitch and Minority Report duked it out for a long time at the BO. And Minority Report had Spielberg and Tom Cruise as the drawing factors.

    And in 2006 Happy Feet and Casino Royale duked it out at the BO.

    Ahh right. My bad :o
    But yeah still. MvA was going head to head with Cameron's avatar untill both their dates were pished back. Both movies are in full stereoscopic 3-D. That is a drawing factor

    Just watch a big blockbuster open the same day as Dragonball, to screw Fox over even more forcing them to move it to 2010.
