Box Office Prediction: $520 million Why It'll Be A Hit: Never underestimate the power of Disney, and though it'll probably fall slightly short of their recent live-action Cinderella ($542.7 million), the stunning visuals and all-star voice cast should make this one an effortless hit regardless of whether it's actually good or not. It has three weeks to run virtually unopposed before Captain America: Civil War hits screens, and it'll make the most of it. Why It Could Disappoint: Despite the mostly positive response to the marketing so far, the movie's biggest obstacle is the rather creepy, arguably unconvincing lip sync, where the human voices crudely pasted over the mouths of CGI animals has a weird and uncanny look to it. Whether this will be enough to deter casual viewers remains to be seen, but it's really the only major sticking point.
