Here comes the holiday season, approach with caution.

This past weekend I headed out the door for a Sunday matinee.  My friends and I were to see "Thor: The Dark World".  As we sat there watching a half hour of commercials and then another half hour of trailers/commercials, it occurred I know nothing about Thor.  He wields a hammer (so does Eragon's cousin Roran Garrowsson a fact to prove I know something) and he resides in Asgard.  Question: Does not knowing much about the comic cause an increase in entertainment when watching Marvel movies?  With no real opinion formed, I would have to say yes.  It is better to be uninformed, left in the dark, clueless while taking in a comic book movie.  Have we just found our target audience?

Thanks for your patience as it took a little longer to set up the spreadsheet for the new season.  Really haven't missed much.  The Fifth Estate, The Counselor, and Ender's Game failed to bring in the big bucks.  However, the fans did flock to the theaters to see Jackass.  In fact, this movie has had the most affect on our league.  The have's are out front and the have not's are buried at the bottom.  Who knew?!?

Jenna is out front while Jamie has shot to the bottom.  Feast your eyes on the standings below.
