And Anne Hathaway to boot.

I suspect that WALL-E will be a much bigger entertainment draw over the next couple of weeks for both kids and adults. Judging from Pixar's track record I'm pretty sure that WALL-E will meet your criterion of being a well done comedy without stooping to the "what passes for" variety.
Hey, if I'm proven wrong about the Box Office potential of Get Smart, I'll gladly provide and consume the 'crow' while you guys stick a fork in my observations, but I suspect Get Smart is going to have a rather rough climb just to reach $120,000,000 (it may make it, but I'll be surprised if it hits the $100,000,000 mark while still showing in first run houses). :o)
Cheers,
