Disney Studios scored last weekend with Alice in Wonderland so it’s no wonder the studio has set another spring date for another 3-D spectacle. The studio announced today that the Robert Zemeckis’ produced film, Mars Needs Moms!, based on Berkley Breathed’s children story, will open on March 11, 2011 in 3-D and likely in IMAX 3-d too. The motion capture movie is being directed by Simon Wells (The Prince of Egypt) and stars the voice cast of Seth Green, Joan Cusack and Dan Fogler. It tells the story of a young boy, named Milo, who gains a deeper appreciation for his mom after Martians come to Earth to take her away.

Alice @ +9 million yesterday and looking to cross 200 mil domestically by Sunday. Still, there are two potential powerhouse 3D threats in How To Train Your Dragon and Shrek 4 coming around the corner soon that could be even bigger.
3-D is the biggest money grabbing scam since bottled water
Does Berkley Breathed have some weird connection with the name “Milo” as that also was the name of the “original star” of Bloom County? Does he have a son with that name perhaps? Also, when I read the title I immediately thought of the classic “B” movie, “Mars Needs Women.” Could be fun!
