Pretty good three day prediction, right? I mean, if you don&#039;t pay attention to the numbers after the first slot that is. Curses. What a bummer. Anyway, let&#039;s break this thing down.

Top Ten Worst Movies Midway Through 2008

Wow, talk about a rough first six months of 2008. There is very little to love in year that has brought us so many bad films. There was a point this year I had given 13 films in a row a grade of &#034;C+&#034; or less, and only one [...]]]></description>

1. WALL-E
I don&#039;t think this will make Monsters, Inc. dollars. But I could see something akin to The Incredibles. I&#039;ve pegged it at $17,500 per theater. It doesn&#039;t matter too much though, I&#039;m hitting the top spot for the 10th weekend in a row with ease.
