WALL&#8226;E is the certain frontrunner to win the Oscar Best Animated Feature at the 2009 Oscars as it competes with DreamWorks&#039;s Kung Fu Panda and Disney&#039;s Bolt for the award, but on Friday night at the 36th annual Annie Awards WALL&#8226;E&#039;s name was nowhere to be found when looking at the winner&#039;s circle.

What the hell. Let&#039;s go with Will Smith, even though he&#039;s got 700 less theaters and isn&#039;t a comedy.  I&#039;ve heard Liar Liar Yes Man isn&#039;t nearly as bad as it looks, but that might not help quickly enough to knock off The Fresh [...]]]></description>

NOTE: These predictions are for the weekend only, not the five-day holiday.

1. Twilight
 Twilight will take a 56% drop this weekend as it falls to the curse of every teen movie: extremely frontloaded.
Estimate: $30.7 million
