Only 3 people put Deadpool in the top 3 for the top 5 in this game. If Deadpool outgrosses BvS, nobody wins (this is at least possible now with DP breaking out huge).

Riggs has DP at #2, but Zootopia would have to make less than Kung Fu Panda 3, which is unlikely with Panda underperforming a bit.

Birdman and I have Deadpool at #3. For me, Jungle Book would have to make between BvS and DP, and for Birdman it's Zootopia. Both unlikely with Deadpool likely to do close to 300M.

Very high chance nobody gets the top 5 right, again.

Yep, I'd say the chances for anyone nailing the top 5 in a season is officially cooked. Again. :lol:

3 points for a prediction in green, and 2 points for getting a question right

15 points for the correct order of the top 5 movies.

Pretty simple! That's why I play the game :P

Thanks, not that I was asking for help - I'm happy to not know. I just play anyway because MGKC really puts the time in, and I respect that.

But as you are so willing....to get a prediction in green, how far away from the actual can your prediction be?

The green predictions ate the eight closest.

The 25% of people who are closest on a movie get points. Say we have 28 people predicting and a movie grosses below every single persons' predictions - the 7 people who predicted the lowest get 3 points a piece.

Norm of the North will be losing 905 theaters, so is the current leader of this question.

Still very beatable - for example, Blackhat last year lost a whopping 2,332 theaters in its third weekend.


Well, next weekend Dirty Grandpa and Fifth Wave go head to head.

Norm of the North maintains its lead. Pride & Prejudice & Zombies is a huge contender for this in 2 weeks - arguably a lock to take it.


50 Shades of Black has taken the lead! -1,590!


PPZ should take a HUGE lead this weekend if the BOM numbers hold up.

Holy cow, look at that loss of 2,455 theaters.

That just might be unbeatable for any other movie this season.

I know wish that Gods of Egypt is ultra wide flop so it has a shot to loose more theaters. Its supposed to be 3000+ theaters if it gets past 3500 it could catch up ;)

Zootopia looks like it's going to break out with stellar reviews and a strong twitter presence, especially for an animated film. That will eliminate Riggs from the top 5 quest. I still have a tiny chance, but Jungle Book would have to break out big time. Birdman has the best chance of us all. BvS, Zootopia, Deadpool, Jungle Book, Kung Fu Panda 3. That COULD happen.

Post subject:  Re: KJ's Winter/Spring 2016 Box Office Contest

Do you guys really think Zootopia or Jungle Book will do close to $375mm total because I see Deadpool coming close to that. Even though none of them are direct competition March has a about 4 movies every weekend before BvS all of those are going to do big numbers. The Jungle Book has Huntsman in its second weekend as well, again not a direct competition but some of the families will still be taken away.

Unless Zootopia under-performs MASSIVELY and makes less than KFP3 I think no one is getting it right this time as well.

Birdman (the user not the movie) has a decent shot at nailing the Top 5 if Zootopia can outgross Deadpool.
