Chomp, Chomp, Chomp ...

For the second time this movie season, I have left the theaters wanting more.  The first time was back in May when the Marvel Universe expanded even further featuring a new set of Avengers.  I wasn't even done with the old team.  This time around it was with dinosaurs.  I have always been a big fan of Jurassic Park.  The second two were watchable. With the edition of the 4th, I am now hoping that there will be a 5th ... and I am not alone says the $200 million opening weekend.

Jurassic World (JW) was huge. It could have an impact on the upcoming weeks.  At this point, I am really not sure if there is anybody out there who hasn't seen it but the openings coming up could feel a little bit of an ... aftershock.  With 2 big openings in the first half of the season, are people set to keep heading to the theaters this summer?

Emily took a risk back in April by placing JW first in the Multipliers.  She was the only one and it has paid off.  The question to ask right now, is it enough?  If May and early June are any indication, then no.  Minions and Fantastic Four could play a major role in the league's outcome.  Orrr people could just run out of money.  Orrr people might become overloaded with too many movies.   In any case, the lead is being passed around like a hot potato.  September 6th is when the buzzer will go off.  Who will be in first?  It is hard to tell at this time.
