In fact a lot of the so called "Kid" movies I've only seen on DVD and not in the theater at all.
Very few of the movies are rated above PG-13, "Pirates of the Caribbean" really jumped up fast, Gone with the Wind is still in the top 100 which is awesome considering it was made in 1939.
I think it the movie was disrepectful of all the people that died on the ship by focusing on the heavily cheesy romance for 2 and half hours only to glorify the wreck at the end.

Overall box office receipts fell with the top 12 movies grossing $124.2 million, down 23 percent from the same weekend last year, when Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets opened with $88.4 million.
