Tangled, Disney's 50th animated movie to date, was expected to gross $50 million dollars at the box-office this weekend. Crazy, right? How could a Disney princess movie gross anything over $20 million? Well that's where you're wrong - twice. First, Tangled isn't necessarily a princess movie. Now yes, the main character is a princess, but the main male character, Flynn Ryder, is also a very key role in the movie. Second, the film far exceeded expectations by not only living up to the $50 million that it was expected to earn, but adding almost $20 million onto that for a domestic haul of 69 million dollars in just five days.


However, even though Tangled did do great this week, it was still beaten out by Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 1. Now, it is still a great accomplishment, especially by being only $9 million behind the top-grossing film series of all time. So anyways, here's how the rest of this week has gone down since Wednesday: (in millions)


1. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1: $78.8
2. Tangled: $69
3. Megamind: $17.6
4. Burlesque: $17.2
5. Unstoppable: $16.2
6. Love and Other Drugs: $14
7. Faster: $12.2
8. Due Date: $10.4
9. The Next Three Days: $6.6
10. Morning Glory: $5.5

The album features all of his most popular songs, sung acoustically. So, be sure to buy it! That is, if you can get through the line, as today is the most popular shopping day of the year.

Pros: Good storyline, several funny jokes, loveable characters, unexpected ending.

Cons: Some scenes with the stepmother are slightly scary.

Conclusion: Young or old, this movie is very entertaining and surprisingly funny.

Lowest Recommended Age: 6 and up.

Rating: 9 out of 10.

For everyone who thought that Disney's latest princess film, like last year's The Princess and The Frog, would flop, you were wrong. Current estimates rank the film at $11.8 million for yesterday alone. It is now estimated to surpass it's $40 million dollar weekend estimate, and actually make $50 million. It is also the highest-grossing opening day for a Thanksgiving weekend release, beating out 2002's Toy Story 2, which grossed $53 million. Sadly, it is not predicted to win the weekend in total haul, as the world's top-grossing wizard, Harry Potter, is expected to gross $90 million over the weekend in the series' latest installment, The Deathly Hallows.


Here's how the weekend is predicted to go down in the box-office:


1. Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 1: $80 million
2. Tangled: $50 million
3. Burlesque: $18 million
4. Megamind: $12.5 million
5. Love & Other Drugs: $15 million
6. Unstoppable: $11 million
7. Faster: $9.4 million

Demi Lovato - Treatment center stint

On November 1, 2010, Demi Lovato
's publicist announced that Demi Lovato had left the Jonas Brothers World Tour early during the preceding weekend, in order to enter a treatment center and "seek medical treatment for emotional and physical issues she has dealt with for some time". The publicist stated that although Demi Lovato had "decided to take personal responsibility for her actions and seek help" and "regrets not being able to finish her tour", she plans to get "back to work in the near future." The following day, a Disney spokesperson told People that "we support Demi's decision to put her health first and we send her our best wishes".

Demi Lovato's publicist denied persistent media speculation that Lovato's treatment was for substance abuse, stating on November 10, 2010 that Lovato "is not in treatment for drug or alcohol addiction...As we have said since she entered treatment last week, Demi decided to seek help for emotional and physical issues she has battled throughout her life. She has taken this step in order to get her life in order."

The Disney Channel plans to revamp Sonny with a Chance around Demi Lovato's absence, temporarily restructuring it to focus on the show-within-a-show, "So Random!". The move will allow the show to resume filming in January 2011, even if Demi Lovato is unavailable.

"This allows her the time she needs to get well, without distraction or pressure," a Disney Channel spokeswoman said. "Again, we extend our ongoing support to Demi and her family as she works to overcome personal issues.

You may have noticed that we did not post anything at seven on Tuesday, this was because... we didn't get any emails or Twitter messages. So we decided to just wait and see who the first person to send us an email or message would be.

Disney has just released this video to their YouTube page, the new trailer for their upcoming film with Pixar, "Cars 2"!

If anyone was the 5,000th person and has a picture to prove it, you must send us an email or private message on Twitter by 5:00 tonight. But if you have a picture close to 5,000 (must be above 5,000), you can send that in up until 6:00, and at 7:00 we will announce the winner, whether they were the 5,000th visitor or not.

“When I was traveling around the world, doing publicity for Cars,” says the film’s director (and the studios’ chief creative officer) John Lasseter, 53, “I couldn’t help but laugh thinking of [tow truck] Mater lost in the maze of Tokyo streets, driving on the wrong side of the road in England or navigating the gigantic roundabouts in Paris.”


Sounds like fun! We can't wait to see the new movie next summer!

At the time of this post, we are at our 5,005th visitor, meaning we've passed 5,000! So, who will it be? If you were the winner, you can check out the rules here. And congrats to whoever won!

"This allows her the time she needs to get well, without distraction or pressure. Again, we extend our ongoing support to Demi and her family as she works to overcome personal issues."

Disney just announced a new singing series, Madison High, and now they're announcing a new one! A.N.T. Farm is about a girl named Chyna (played by China McClain) who has skipped several grades due to her amazing singing skills, and gets into mischief with the other A.N.T.'s! A.N.T. stands for Accelerated Natural Talent, a gifted program at the local high school.

Reports are currently flying around from several close sources that Demi has done cocaine and drinks a ton. The source also said that she was snorting cocaine heavily at a party last December with a rumored boyfriend, who later died in a water sport accident.


Now, we don't have any proof that this is true. We don't think it's true, and really hope it's not true, for Demi's safety. Plus, according to the source, Demi has been doing drugs and drinking for a long time. Why would they wait until now to say it? Attention.


Whether she's in g=big trouble or not, please be praying for the Lovato family.

Since 'Wizards' is nearing it's end, and the current opening credits were shot about four years ago, Disney has made a new opening sequence for their hit television series.


Even though the sound quality is poor, you can sneak a peak at some new footage of the cast from season four. Even though Gregg Sulkin was rumored to be added to the main cast, no one has been added or taken away from the credits.

Ashley Tisdale has just posted the following video to her Facebook page, the trailer for her all-new movie, "Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure"! As stated in the preview, the movie will be released on Disney DVD and Blu-ray next spring, but it is unknown whether or not the film will be shown on Disney Channel. No matter how, we can't wait to see it!

But as you can see in this video, he doesn't like them! We don't really know why he needs them though, his teeth already seem perfectly straight!

Brandon Mychal Smith of "Sonny With A Chance" on Disney Channel has just Tweeted this announcing his participation in ABC's new spin-off of "Dancing With The Stars", "Skating With The Stars!

"Who is excited to watch me bust my behind on the brand new season of ABC's "Skating With the Stars" ahah Tune in Nov 22nd and vote for me!!"

Congrats Brandon! Be sure to check out "Skating With The Stars" right after 'Dancing' on November 22!

Demi Lovato has been going through a hard time this week after checking herself into rehab for personal issues, and now we have some more information about what led to this breakdown of hers.


A source recently told E! News the following: 

"On tour, they were calling her 'Demi Drama'. After she split with Joe, it was just a whole bunch of drama, very awkward. Everyone tried to be professional, but you could tell it was wearing down Demi. It was a taboo subject to bring up, but clearly she wasn’t over Joe. The [Jonas] boys got a break after the tour, but Demi went a nonstop promo campaign for Camp Rock 2 and was pushing the single for that movie. It really was too much ask of a girl that young. She just couldn’t handle it. I think Demi has a lot of issues she is dealing with, but at the source of them all is a great deal of stress."

They continued, saying:

"She just lost it right at the airport in front of everyone. The [Jonases'] dad basically said right there, ‘That’s it. You’re going home.’ "

"Demi Lovato left her tour early this weekend in order to seek medical treatment for emotional and physical issues she has dealt with for some time. Demi has decided to take personal responsibility for her actions and seek help. She is doing just that. She regrets not being able to finish her tour, but is looking forward to getting back to work in the near future."

"She fought through eating disorders and has struggled with cutting. Demi is taking control by getting help."
