Chippy 2-0
I.hope 2-0

Rev 1-1
nghtvsn 1-1

Zwackerm 0-2
MGKC 0-2
Stuffp 0-2

We have lost a team this week as Jack Sparrow has been sent to Davey Jones' Locker. And so far both teams have lost to my replacement predictions, so this new variable isn't working out for anybody. The good news is that at least one 0-2 team will get their first win this week, though the bad news is that at least one team will remain winless.

Rev v i.hope
Chip v nghtvsn
Zwackerm v stuffp
mgkc v dealer

I switched the schedule a little bit so mgkc and i.hope wouldn't play each twice in three weeks. I think things should work out from now on. Your tasks for the week are

Halloween 3-day
The Hate U Give 3-day
First Man drop
Venom drop
Can You Ever Forgive Me? PTA

I'm going with these 5 since I think there will be more variance in the predictions than with Star, Goosebumps and El Royale. Good luck to everyone in week 3!!!

My predictions:

Halloween - $87.65M
The Hate U Give - $10.44M
First Man - -42.3%
Venom - -49.3%
Can You Ever Forgive Me? - $60.3k PTA

87 mil!

Interesting

Thanks to everyone for getting them in on time.

And yeah I’m feeling that Halloween will be a mega breakout. Everybody wants in.

pretty sure i'm losing this week. I'm only confident about Venom's drop.

I’m going to work soon so results won’t be up till later. I’m pretty sure MGKC defeated me for his first win though.

$84.00M Halloween $66.66M

-42% First Man -48.5%
-53% Venom -50%
$41k Can You Ever Forgive Me? 57K

Rev is unable to slay the still undefeated i.hope. A close match though, Halloween could still swing it with a harsh Sunday drop, though I wouldn't expect that. If anything it will probably go up.

$75.55M Halloween $68.9M
$13.22M THUG $7.2M
-42.5% First Man -45%
-48.75% Venom -52.8%
$44k Can You Ever Forgive Me? $54K

Chippy takes his first L of the season. Nghtvsn was the overall closest on Halloween and only one to predict it to land in the 70s.

MGKC ||||| dealer

$82M Halloween $87.65M
$4.4M THUG $10.44M
-49.5% First Man -42.3%
-54.5% Venom -49.3%
$42.5K Can You Ever Forgive Me? $60.3K

MGKC gets his first win and is the first to knock off the dealer. I was way off on Forgive. Maybe McCarthy is more of a heartlander?


Stuffp ||||| Zwackerm

$65.5m Halloween $55.67M
$6.9M THUG $8.03M
-40% First Man -45.09%
-50% Venom -49%
$60k Can You Ever Forgive Me? $75K

I'm hesitant to call this one. The THUG and Venom predictions are so close and could be swung the other way with actuals. This is definitely the closest match we have had thus far. Tune back in tomorrow for the final stretch.

The probable lineup for next week:

Hunter Killer 3-day
Indivisible 3-day
Johnny English Strikes Again 3-day
Halloween drop
Suspiria PTA

Johnny English has a projected theater count of only 500, which seems weird to me. I'm not sure what to replace it with though.

Victory!

The Hate U Give went up by .1 and Venom stayed about the same. So Zwackerm survives the photo finish for his first W and poor stuffp is thwarted by the closest of margins again. He is definitely the Atlanta Falcons of the League so far.
