Actually, it looks to me like the kids are still seeing Meet the Robinsons.

Are We Done Yet is only making money because it's a sequel to a kids movie, so kids are naturally going to be excited and run off to want to see it.

The marketing campaign for Firehouse Dog was awful... it made the movie seem like the same pointless kiddie movies that have been coming out year after year, with burp jokes and kiddie snickers. I bet the movie isn't really like that, but the way they marketed it was completely inferior to Meet the Robinsons. Hence I think this will flop, and Are We Done Yet will make a good first weekend but then die off quickly.
