 KJ's Winter/Spring 2014 Box Office Contest - Planning Thread Hey all,
I'm hoping to have the new game up by this Saturday, but wanted to get input from those that care.
This game will cover movies released from January through April 2014. Moves that are locked in to predict:
January
Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones
Hercules: The Legend Begins
Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit
Ride Along
I, Frankenstein
February
Lego
The Monuments Men
Robocop
Non-Stop
March
300: Rise of an Empire
Mr. Peabody & Sherman
Need for Speed
Divergent
Muppets Most Wanted
Noah
April
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Rio 2
That's 17 locked in. Depending on how many others you feel would be really important / interesting to predict, I'm willing to go anywhere from 20, 25, or 30 total movies being predicted.
Possible:
The Nut Job
Devil's Due
Labor Day
That Awkward Moment
About Last Night
Endless Love
Vampire Academy
Winter's Tale
3 Days to Kill
Pompeii
Almanac
Son of God
The Grand Budapest Hotel
Veronica Mars
Grace of Monaco
Stretch
Tyler Perry's Single Moms Club
A Haunted House 2
Draft Day
Sabotage
St. Vincent
Disney's Bears
Heaven is for Real
Trascendence
Earth to Echo
The Other Woman
The Quiet Ones
Walk of Shame
Let me know if I'm totally missing a huge potential movie.

Re: KJ's Winter/Spring 2014 Box Office Contest - Planning Th We should definitely predict Endless Love. Could do pretty solidly. The same goes for Son of God. Will the target audience come out to support a movie edited from a mini-series most of them already saw even if it does include some deleted scenes?

Re: KJ's Winter/Spring 2014 Box Office Contest - Planning Th Transcendence has to be in there. I also voted for Budapest Hotel and Veronica Mars. I accidentally clicked on Son of God instead of Hotel though.

Re: KJ's Winter/Spring 2014 Box Office Contest - Planning Th Winter's Tale should be automatic.  It is a fairly prestigious project from the cast to the source material. _________________1.

Re: KJ's Winter/Spring 2014 Box Office Contest - Planning Th I only picked 6 in the poll. I'd also take Winter's Tale if it were included.
A lot of movies are just ??? No clue what they are about.
3 Days to Kill, Stretch, Single Moms Club, Draft Day, Other Woman, Quiet Ones, Walk of Shame etc.

Re: KJ's Winter/Spring 2014 Box Office Contest - Planning Th 3 Days To Kill is a movie with Kevin Costner and Amber Heard, so it will probably bomb but it could be fun to predict anyway.
Hell, I'm all for doing predictions for a a bunch of them. Let's go all out.
