I.hope 4-0

nghtvsn 3-1

Chippy 2-2
Zwackerm 2-2
MGKC 2-2

Rev 1-3

Stuffp 0-4

We are one quarter of the way through the season and at least one trend has emerged, i.hope is the Rams. This week he takes on loveable underdog stuffp, in a volatile week that could go any way. Also interesting is the chippy v mgkc matchup, who have had inversed seasons so far to get them to 2-2. Rev hopes to bounce back against second place nghtvsn, who has only lost to i.hope so far. And red hot Zwackerm draws the dealer while looking forward to a 3 game win streak. Will the league down the familiar road or will the upsets cause the chaos needed for parity? Only time will tell.

Week 5 - The Nutcrackin Rhapsody

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

And this week we shall be following

Bohemian Rhapsody 3-day
The Nutcracker and the Four Realms 3-day
Nobody's Fool 3-day
Halloween drop
Boy Erased PTA

My predictions

Bohemian Rhapsody - $41.32M
Nutcracker - $22.28M
Nobody's Fool - $20.01M
Halloween -64.5%
Boy Erased - $67.4K

Going high on Mercury even with the reviews.

I'm a little confused with the leaderboard. i.hope has won all the games and stuffp has won none, right?

That is correct. Betting tip: I feel pretty good about taking on i.hope this week.

You're Rocky and i.hope is Apollo, ergo you lose!

I'm loving this game. Your write ups/recaps and the colors. I appreciate it.

Fixed

Great to hear!

We can have Rocky v Apollo and Rocky v Drago but please no Apollo v Drago.

Results soon. The PTA questions continue to puzzle everyone.

$39M Bohemian Rhapsody $39.6M
$17.4M Nutcracker $20.2M
$14.8M Nobody's Fool $16.5M
-54% Halloween -63%
$65K Boy Erased 70K

He was compared to Stallone, Lungren and Weathers, but the correct analogy would be Kurt Russel as stuffp pulls off a miracle to beat the seemingly unstoppable i.hope. I.Hope will remain in first place though, looking to shake it off against Rev next week.

$13.75M Nobody's Fool $14.4M
-54.5% Halloween -54.5%
$45.5k Boy Erased $70.5K

The tie for the Halloween is irrelevant right now, however, nghtvsn is currently winning this match by only $150,000 on Nobody's Fool. If that ends up going up with actuals I will use a coin flip or dice rolling app to break the tie. As is, really tough one for Rev who badly needed this win, and had the highest Bohemian Rhapsody prediction to set the tone. Losing two picks by half a million total... Woof. On the other hand, I guess I was wrong about the PTA since nghtvsn almost nailed it exactly. Also had the closest on Nobody's Fool so good week for him.

MGKC ||||| Chippy

$25.5M Bohemian Rhapsody $42.3M
$14.9M Nutcracker $20M
$21M Nobody's Fool $15.1M
-53.5% Halloween -64.3%
$44K Boy Erased $46K

Hmm I must have been drunk when reading through these the first time because it turns out a lot of people actually were close on Boy Erased. Tough week for MGKC here as he must have been swayed by those who didn't believe in Freddie Mercury. Or maybe he is just tired of "Best Friend" being used in every movie. Chippy had a killer week, so it wouldn't have mattered much anyways. Nice rebound after a two week losing streak.

The second hottest team coming into the week cools off and submits a killer queef. My predictions were better than normal to be fair though, though I seem to be picking up a habit of badly overpredicting Tiffany Haddish. Zwackerm will look for redemption next week against his arch rival, The Grinch.

Next week probables:

The Grinch 3-day
The Girl In The Spider's Web 3-day
Overlord 3-day
Bohemian Rhapsody drop
The Front Runner PTA

The Front Runner opens on Tuesday, which I don't really like, but I'm not sure what else to put in there. Nutcracker doesn't seem worth predicting anymore.

Yeah, great to get my first victory, and glad it came because of thoughtful BR and Nutcracker predictions.

Well done dude.

Hopefully the actual numbers will be in my favor #Pray2theBOGods

Looks like Nobody's Fool finished with 13.74. Read'em and Weep.

Nobody’s Fool went down to $13.74M meaning nghtvsn almost nailed another one exactly. Sorry Rev.

I will have next week’s thread up in a little while.
