How well will The Simpsons do?

[GregBlu5]

I know we've had a few 'The Simpsons Movie' threads of late, but I am curious as to how well you all think this title will do the week leading up to Christmas.

It's animated, but it's not an animated movie in quite the same way as a Disney title such as Ratatouille or Cars. I mean, the show has been on TV for well over a decade, and getting closer to two decades. It's also not entirely a typical "family movie" like most Disney flicks.

It's also a brand new Blu title. It's Blu exclusive. And the main competition that week is from Blade Runner (both formats) and Terminator 3. Again, I have both of those on order, as well as The Simpsons Movie; but we've seen that titles that have been on DVD for years don't do nearly as well as brand new titles have. (While we snap them up, we're not typical consumers on this list, I don't think.)

Is it going to be a LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD blockbuster, or a Ratatouille bestseller? Again, what do you folks think?
