New record for the KJ's Box Office Game series.
This means the closest 8 predictors for each movie's total gross will score the 3 points.

 Re: KJ's Summer Box Office Contest 2012
Damn it! I just saw the new trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man and my prediction is totally different now. I'm sure it will pass 200 Million at least, unlike the 177 Million I predicted.

 Re: KJ's Summer Box Office Contest 2012
Fairly confident that by end of May 12 players would have flamed out with Dark Shadows and MIB3 in their top 5. Then Madagascar predictor will also go down.

 Re: KJ's Summer Box Office Contest 2012
LOL, already Avengers wins points for the top 8. I think I bumped mine down at the last revision before the hype started. Damn it.

Heh, I'm only the highest or lowest on one movie. Just a gut instinct that huge groups of women will go to see Magic Mike (not unlike Sex and the City).
