So, if you're picking Prometheus to be the highest-grossing "R" film can you include an alternate in case it doesn't end up being "R"?

Ha, sorry but nope. That's part of the challenge and risk of that question! :)


That's so not fair :P. Most movies are already rated.

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.

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.

Oh crap yeah... :ninja:

I didn't pay attention to that message at all. It's still unread. I stopped reading after "6 days left to submit" part. LOL. Thought it was some junk "awards" PM. Should've been named like the PM for Spring Edition - KJ's Spring Box Office Contest - Predict Spring's biggest! :tears: :tears: :tears: :tears:

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).
