DISNEY - 10,000 BC COULD SET MARCH RECORD, SAY ANALYSTS

Roland Emmerich's 10,000 BC is expected not only to dominate the box office this weekend, but set ticket-sales records for the month as well, some analysts have predicted. The current record was set by last year's 300, which took in $70.9 million over the comparable weekend a year ago. Two other films are opening wide today (Friday), but are expected to provide weak competition. Disney is offering the G-rated comedy College Road Trip, starring Martin Lawrence and Raven-Symoné of The Cosby Show and That's So Raven, which is expected to take in $15-18 million. Lionsgate is distributing the British film The Bank Job, which is likely to take in $5-8 million.
