And I thought Bros was a promising late round pick...

Why does it only say 550 million for Top Gun 2?

There is a $550 million cap for any movie.

I understand it for a year like Endgame's but when there wasn't an obvious #1 like this I find it unnecessary

It's to keep one lucky pick from determining the winner

The people who picked Black Panther and Avatar could have won if they hadn't bombed all their other picks

I didn't realise those were considered lucky picks.

My current films should get me over 900m. Puss and Babylon should get me over 1bn, but probably not to the 1.1bn that would be needed to challenge for 2nd place

I will finally pass 1bn tomorrow, but it won't be enough to pass lilmac and get out of second to last place.

Better luck this year man, your slate got decimated by release schedule changes. And your one big movie that didn't move was the biggest disappointment of the year

I'm sorry. I couldn't help by laugh when I read that.

But yeah, it's unfortunate. I cannot remember the specifics, but you must've been hurt by release date changes. Riggs was too in Group 1 but he had James Cameron save his year. Actually, Flava'd had six movies move, and alas he finished last.

I had Spider-Man (moved), Flash (moved), Turning Red (removed), and Creed III (moved) in my first 5 picks. The only top 5 pick I had that stayed was Lightyear, and well... it was my top grossing film at least... :funny:

And just as many smaller picks that moved too. Shotgun Wedding, Legally Blonde 3, Oh Hell No, Wonder sequel, and one or two more I think.

How much did/has Flava'd made?

He's just shy of $706 million with only Babylon in play, so he probably won't reach $710 million. His second and fourth picks were replaced with EEAAO and One Piece Film: Red, which while good replacements, are nothing in comparison to Across The Spider-Verse and The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
