Insert your Transformers morphing sound here!

So stating the obvious, Transformers came out and dominated the box office as expected.  In fact, it opened to a tune of $100 million.  This placed it on top as the best opening for the season to date.  However, this virtually had no impact on the league.  We all found room in our top 10 for this movie.   Did anyone notice that Faith moved to just under $2 billion behind first ever moving up slowly.  At this pace, she should be taking over the top spot sometime in August ... 2017.

It's the 4th of July ... weekend!  Yay for the short weeks, that is if you don't have the summers off.
There are three movies coming out this weekend.  They are kids discover an alien, good continues to battle evil, and a story about a lady named Tammy (yup, that's my selection if I am to go).  Sadly, none were picked so the league won't change even a little bit like last week.  

So let's have a first half of the season wrap-up.  According to the stats there were no discrepancies.  The more movies you picked, the higher up in the standings you finished.  Case in point, Colleen and Jeff are in first and second respectively. Guess what? (chicken butt) They have had more openings than anyone else.  Don't believe me, look below.

In the first half we have seen Colleen rule in June with the help of (her) Neighbors.  Faith have one of the worse May's on record.  Four movies all open within $10 million of each other.  Seen the majority of our picks open.  In the second half we will see less openings.  The standings become stagnant.  A bunch of turtles from the sewers fight crime karate style with Italian Renaissance artist names.  Yeah, only in America!

Stay tuned to next week when we debate the space-time continuum mathematical model applied to the exact number of popped, partially popped and unpopped kernels in a bucket of popcorn times three.  More simply put, how much did Uncle Fred eat when he made not one but two trips to get a free refill.
