We have reached the midpoint!

The story so far ...
This season was all about your ranking skills.  For the first time in this league's history, there will be a tie. (A FOUR-WAY TIE at that) "How you like them apples."  Doesn't really apply here, but I like the quote.  Looking ahead, they all have the same three movies remaining.  The Blockbuster this season will boil down to alternatives and those would be Dunkirk, Captain Underpants, & Valerian and something about cities.  The fourth has Diary of a Wimpy Kid but we already know that Captain Underpants has made more.  Looks like right now the magic number is $23 million.

The only way this plays out any different is if The Emoji Movie, Annabelle Amityville, and/or The Nut Job 2 comes out big.  Who knew that back in April, The Mummy was going to be so influential.  On another note, Transformers scored big to date! In almost a week, it has made almost $200 million .. overseas.  Here, it has just made below $70.  Asia and Europe might just be in love with Hollywood.

Out this week is Despicable Me 3.  Next week is Spider-Man.  The following week is War for the Planet of the Apes.  With not very movies picked in the second half, this will all but wrap up most of the league.
