Our road favorite animated movie "Cars" ended up as the second-highest grossing movie of 2006 at $244 million. The number one was "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" at $423 million. Somewhere, Walt Disney must be smiling.

 

In case youre wondering, the next highest was "X-Men:The Last Stand" at $234 million. Rounding out the top ten:

 

4. The Davinci Code

5. Superman Returns

6. Ice Age: the Meltdown

7. Happy Feet

8. Over the Hedge

9. Casino Royale

10. Talladega Nights: the Ballad of Ricky Bobby at $148 million

 

It would be interesting to see what impact it had on Route 66 and old roads in general. I don't know about you, but I saw it three times when it was in the theaters, the first time at the McHenry Outdoor Drive In where there was a big round of applause at its conclusion.

 

Keep on Watching that Cars movie. --RoadDog
