Thanks, Vanilla.

My wife has informed me she wishes to change her Dirty Grandpa prediction from $100 million to $67 million (after seeing too many crappy TV spots for it).

lol, going by my predictions it will be a terrible first third.

But then, I think I had some fairly optimistic predictions for the winter and everything disappointed.

Pretty diverse Top 5's this time around. With a very clear #1 pick, could this finally be the season where someone nails it? We do have several wildcard Top 5 movies - Hunstman, Greek Wedding 2, Allegiant, Ride Along 2 - along with many long shots (How to Be Single, The 5th Wave, Mother's Day, Zoolander 2).

If we do take the favorite top 5 picks (Batman v. Superman, Zootopia, Jungle Book, Kung Fu Panda 3, and Deadpool), here's the possible 24 configurations:

BATMAN - DEADPOOL - JUNGLE BOOK - KUNG FU PANDA - ZOOTOPIA (Predicted by Riggs)
BATMAN - DEADPOOL - JUNGLE BOOK - ZOOTOPIA - KUNG FU PANDA
BATMAN - DEADPOOL - KUNG FU PANDA - JUNGLE BOOK - ZOOTOPIA
BATMAN - DEADPOOL - KUNG FU PANDA - ZOOTOPIA - JUNGLE BOOK
BATMAN - DEADPOOL - ZOOTOPIA - JUNGLE BOOK - KUNG FU PANDA
BATMAN - DEADPOOL - ZOOTOPIA - KUNG FU PANDA - JUNGLE BOOK
BATMAN - JUNGLE BOOK - DEADPOOL - KUNG FU PANDA - ZOOTOPIA
BATMAN - JUNGLE BOOK - DEADPOOL - ZOOTOPIA - KUNG FU PANDA (Predicted by SolC9)
BATMAN - JUNGLE BOOK - KUNG FU PANDA - DEADPOOL - ZOOTOPIA
BATMAN - JUNGLE BOOK - KUNG FU PANDA - ZOOTOPIA - DEADPOOL
BATMAN - JUNGLE BOOK - ZOOTOPIA - DEADPOOL - KUNG FU PANDA (Predicted by Rev)
BATMAN - JUNGLE BOOK - ZOOTOPIA - KUNG FU PANDA - DEADPOOL
BATMAN - KUNG FU PANDA - DEADPOOL - JUNGLE BOOK - ZOOTOPIA
BATMAN - KUNG FU PANDA - DEADPOOL - ZOOTOPIA - JUNGLE BOOK
BATMAN - KUNG FU PANDA - JUNGLE BOOK - DEADPOOL - ZOOTOPIA
BATMAN - KUNG FU PANDA - JUNGLE BOOK - ZOOTOPIA - DEADPOOL
BATMAN - KUNG FU PANDA - ZOOTOPIA - DEADPOOL - JUNGLE BOOK
BATMAN - KUNG FU PANDA - ZOOTOPIA - JUNGLE BOOK - DEADPOOL
BATMAN - ZOOTOPIA - DEADPOOL - JUNGLE BOOK - KUNG FU PANDA (Predicted by Birdman)
BATMAN - ZOOTOPIA - DEADPOOL - KUNG FU PANDA - JUNGLE BOOK
BATMAN - ZOOTOPIA - JUNGLE BOOK - DEADPOOL - KUNG FU PANDA (Predicted by Flava'd, Jack Sparrow, moviegeek151, Star Lord, trixster, zwackerm)
BATMAN - ZOOTOPIA - JUNGLE BOOK - KUNG FU PANDA - DEADPOOL (Predicted by BK, MadGez, Magic Mike, publicenemy#1)
BATMAN - ZOOTOPIA - KUNG FU PANDA - DEADPOOL - JUNGLE BOOK
BATMAN - ZOOTOPIA - KUNG FU PANDA - JUNGLE BOOK - DEADPOOL


Looking at all the possibilities and what was covered just over the favorite top 5 movies, maaaaybe it's looking a little less likely than I originally thought.
