Finally, the sequel to Greedy ...

And so it begins ...
The challenge has been laid down, Frozen put up $130 million.  The question is, will the last Skywalker Star Wars movie (for now) be able to top it?  Next month we will find out.  In other news, this is where Hermonie starts her comeback.  Rarely has the league seen a season where the second half does better than the first.  This could be the first!

Thanksgiving releases ...

Time to find out if 'Let it Go' is also the theme song of the sequel ...

And so it begins ...
This week is going to set up the rest of the season.  Either Frozen is going to follow in Terminator's and on a bigger note, Charlie's Angels foot steps. Orrr (yes I started a new sentence and added extra 'r's because it's a pretty big 'or') it's going to crank it out.  The buzz is pretty good but can every tweener, teenie bopper, child out there go out and see it?  The league is pretty split, sorry Burton but you would have made it even or decisively uneven.  In one corner, we have Jack, Elizabeth, Rod, & Hermonie predicting that it will bomb. While Boba, Fox, and Rey think it will lead all this season. Coincidental, the latter group is all in the top half while the doubters are in the bottom.

It's been close so far but will it continue to rain bombs or will the money start flowing ... again?

Ferrari would totally take Ford ...

And so it begins ...
We are 4 weeks in and Hermonie starts her comeback.  Meanwhile, there are now only two at the top in the Blockbusters.  Question is, will the two sets of pairs remain tied the rest of the season.  Want to know now?  The picks page has been updated.  Rey still has a foot hold on the Multiplier but only by a slim margin

Coming out this weekend ...

No Thor means all in (lots of releases) ...

And so it begins ...
Terminator produces a bomb.  However, it might have a big impact in the Multipliers.  Everyone picked it but there was really no consensus on where to rank it.  Those ranking high benefitted now but we will have to see if it hurts them in the end.  Still a four way tie at the top in Blockbusters.  We have had to only use the tie-breaker.  Could this be a second time?

I will be back ...

In the beginning ...
Countdown and Black & Blue did not have quite the affect on the league as Maleficent 2 and Zombieland 2.  Maybe it's because they are not sequels.  No change took place because they did not even get picked.  Out this week is Arctic Dogs, Harriet, and Terminator.  Much more potential for impacting the league with Terminator picked by all.

On another note, did anyone notice that BoxOfficeMojo was added to IMDb Pro during October.  Stay tuned to see if this has any impact on stats or how the league is run.  So far so good.
