Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Congrats Scott for another outstanding score! And Levy as well!
Didn't really think I could place as well as I did after failing on the openers and My Sister's Keeper.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Ohmygosh. I can't believe I forgot to change my Public Enemies prediction. Originally I had it at $33.6 million, but lowered it to $27 million Wednesday night. Can't believe I didn't update the Derby.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread You would think being owned by IMDB they would be able to update their damn yearly charts...

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Stellar scores, especially BJ, AF - robbed by one of the highest scores in derby's history.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread I am literally shocked I got #17 despite my Bruno prediction. The top ten must be all KJers! (They aren't displayed yet)

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread 3rd place - could have been better but Pelham and conservative prediction for Hangover hurt too much. Too bad yearly chart is still not updated.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Did you guys know?
"I'm sorry but we are no longer giving out prizes (besides bragging rights, of course) for the Derby game.
Best,
Sean Saulsbury
Box Office Mojo"
I must say this is fucking ridiculous.

Giving away the monthly premier pass just was kinda nice thing to get, besides the "bragging rights", and it cost nothing to them (damn greedy bastards). For instance, the Russian site kinopoisk.ru gives away DVDs every week for US and Russian b/o derby games through Russian analogue of Amazon, and I think they still have some bigger prizes for the winners of the month (I won the month once and got the set of 2 first seasons of LOST). I think almost famous can tell you more about it.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread BOM is also a huge site that is now owned by IMDB. They can do what they want.

I think almost famous can tell you more about it. Yes, kinopoisk gives away DVDs every week for US and Russian box office games winners and also monthly prizes for both games (now you can pick anything you want up to 1500 roubles, slightly less than 50 USD). They might be far from perfect on other issues but here it is absolutely fair and consistent. I don't know what's the problem with BoM but Mr. R is totally right. This is ridiculous.
