Chicken Little Rules Box Office

Chicken Little came in on top of the box office this weekend by a pretty large margin. Chicken Little made just over $40.1 million, which by the way is a lot more than industry experts were expecting.

I still don’t know that this 3D animated film is going to pass the $350 million world wide that Disney says they’re hoping for… but a $40+ million opening weekend certainly won’t hurt.

What will hurt is the fact that most critics don’t like it very much. Think about it. The Incredibles made over $70 million on it’s opening weekend… but everyone (critics and audiences) LOVED it. Word got around fast about how good the film was. That word of mouth pushed it to over $260 million domestically with over $360 million world wide. Chicken Little isn’t getting that kind of huge word of mouth.

But, keep in mind that being the only real “kids flick” out there right now it does stand to make a lot… I just don’t think $350 million is realistic.
