Star Wars nation is strong!

The story so far ...
We are in the midst of the holidays and Jenna is making the most of it.  She is moving into second for the Blockbusters and taking over Multipliers.  Only about $22 million stand in her way and she has one left to open and another moving to wide.  We are moving into the final month.  

On another note, I will be sending out the Spring League choices in a couple of weeks!  To play, just hit reply with your picks.  No pressure.

Happy holidays and have a safe New Years.

Merry Christmas

The story so far ...
So Rogue One was a success!  If Disney puts this much effort into all of their spinoffs,  it's good to be a Star Wars fan right now.  Take that Trekkies!  

In other news, Sing opens today with Assassin's Creed and Passengers on their way. By the time Xmas packages are all unwrapped and the buttons holding our jeans on burst at the seams, this league could very well be decided.  Chuck's foot hold on Blockbusters and Jeff's on Multipliers could be a thing of the past just like 2016 in a week.  Who has button's on their jeans?

A breather...

The story so far ...
Only Incarnate opened and nobody had it.  We look ahead to Office Christmas Party which looks hilarious and STAR WARS!!!!  I am not excited at all for it.  It's going to be good.  How can it be bad?  It's bringing back Darth Vader.  Darth Vader is in nothing bad.  Pipe down Ewok!  On a side note, should we start a pool on who makes it out alive?

The standings to date ...
The same as last week!

Moana caught the big wave...

The story so far ...
Moana comes up big and rewards those for picking it.  Faith plummets and Jeff moves in to 1st place for the Multipliers.  Chuck continues his hold on first for the Blockbusters.  However, with only 2 movies left and 2 months left in the season, better hope the remaining openings falter a bit. December is here which means Christmas is here.  But more importantly, Star Wars is here...almost...just 3 weeks...c'mon already!

About to have me some turkey...

The story so far ...
Well, Fantastic Beasts left a mark on Multipliers. Everybody changed their position from the previous week.  Faith catapulted into first while Jamie and Chris plummeted.  Over in the Blockbusters, Chuck continues his hold on first.      

Holiday weekend, the first of four, is upon us.  Will the early start for some hurt their totals?  Will families stay home and eat ALL weekend?  Will the deals be too attractive to leave the stores?  All these questions and more will be answered in the next letter!

The Arrival came and went.

The story so far ...
The wait is over, Potter is here, sort of.  The question is, will it be a box off success?  Which started out as a trilogy, expanded to five will now see if it can get past one.  Avoiding the Tuesdays opening and a holiday weekend,  Fantastic Beasts look to put a stamp on our league and continue drawing hordes to the box office this season.  Looking at this year's picks, the league was split down the middle as to which would make more between Beasts and Doctor Strange.   Strange's opening of $85 is impressive.  Side bets anyone?
