Five weeks to go ...

And so it begins ...
I apologize for not sending this out sooner.  It's not like I am home all day with easy access to the internet.  However, BoxOfficeMojo.com is really not updating their website at the moment with good reason. With that being said, the standings really are not changing at the moment.  I will continue to keep logging in and make any adjustments.  Maybe I will "bold" the numbers if there is any change.  Seeing how Trump just shut down the country until the end of April, I wouldn't expect any.

So, in the remaining five weeks, would anybody like to talk about anything? With the streaming services, movies have never been easier to watch.  No longer are we reliant on a dvd collection worthy of Blockbuster or a friend to get us through.  Here we have Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+ to get us through.  Blackbeard's Ghost, Snowball Express, and Justice League have been screened with more "classics" line up.  Maybe a Fast & Furious or Harry Potter marathon is in order.  Of course Star Wars will always be playing in a timely fashion.  What will you be watching?


Could be the final Standings ...

Wash your hands ....

Wash Your Hands ...
Well, we might just be looking at the final standings of Spring League.  In a matter of a week, the US has shut down which to include theaters as well.  Movies are either moving their release dates or releasing online.  Although some have not announced yet, it's looking like the season is over.  If you are like me and way behind in your movie watching, now is the time to catch up! Stay safe and wash those hands.


These just might be the final standings ...
Stay tuned, but doubt if the changes will matter much.

Sports are taking a breather, will the film industry follow ...

And so it begins ...
It was just a few weeks ago, it looked like Ned was taking a big risk, going against the grain, and picking Sonic first.  After just one week and Bond moving to November, The Mandalorian might have made the move to win it all.  As it stands now, who knows what will happen.  Will more movies move their opening?  Will the league finish as is or will this be the closet finish ever without a tie?  As we move forward and as a country please be safe and for the love of god, keep washing those hands.

Onward and upward ...

Big news ...
Earlier this week, Bond announced that it is not opening until November.  The past couple of Bonds have opened in November, so the Spring opening was a big of a surprise.  It is nice of them though to move it back in order not to attract crowds these days with the coronavirus spreading around.  I bet money was also part of the decision as well.

Below are the standings for before and after the announcement.  Looks like The Mandalorian and Rey are making their case again.  Question, can they stay on top this far out.  Up next, Onward looks to wreck havoc on the league with it widely pick high and low.

You can see how everyone picked it, just head on over to the members page.
