We are almost there ...

The end is here, last weekend ...
April is coming to a close.  Temperatures are slowly rising.  Lots of rain is projected in my neck of the world (Maybe the weather people will get it wrong.).  It sure is a new norm that we are living in and one to remember.

Nothing new to report here, lol.


The standings so far ...
Is this like someone's basement ...

Resistance                    $2490
Swallow                       $2490
The Other Lamb          $265

I hear that movie theaters are allowed to open back up in some states starting as early as next week.  This move however, will have no bearing on this season.  With more and more being canceled in the summer, maybe not next season either.

Drive-Ins please come back ...

And now we wait ...
Usually around this time in April, the Summer Season movie list is coming out.  We are watching trailers and trying to decide which multi-million dollar marketing campaign will net the biggest results.  Franchises would surely be dominating your top ten and pondering who would be the next sleeper would keep you up nights (not really).  However right now, movie offerings look pretty dismal.  After April, not sure if it is wise to even rely on June openings.  Wonder Woman has moved back to August (for the time being).  With that being said, I think we will wait at least a month before starting (if we do).  Push comes to shove, I will just make it July, August & September.  Be safe and hope all is well.

If interested in playing, stay tune!


Random stats ...
Last weekend (April 9th) two movies managed to make money. However, they will not impact the league in the slightest

Swallow                     $1710
The Other Lamb        $1413

Drive-In theaters are making a comeback.  Social distancing at it's finest and an all-American experience to boot. They definitely need to be adding that into the totals.

Streaming to a television near you ...
What streaming service are you on?  HBO is cranking it out of the park while Hulu landed Parasite.  Netflix is promoting 'To Hot To Handle'.  There are tons of others, not sure how anyone could be bored.

Happy Easter

When will this ever end ...
I hope this finds you in good health, take care.



The standings so far ...
Phoenix, Oregon made $2903 last weekend.  Not sure how though.

There is a bunch else, but this looked cool.

Plenty of time for binging ...

Brought to you by a completist ...
For some reason, whenever I watch the first movie in a trilogy, start reading a book in a series, or begin a television show, I have this desire to finish all. So with that being said, that is literally the whole point of this letter.  It's just so that when I look back, there is a post for this past week.  Wouldn't want an interruption now would we?  What is the worst series on any medium that you have completed?

In other news, with so much time at home and Spring League ending, it might be time to get an early jump on Summer League.  Not sure when it will start or what would even be included since now June movies are not being released.  It might not happen, but then ...

The standings have not changed ...

Top grossing movies for 2020 so far ....

1.) $204,417,855 Bad Boys for Life
2.) $157,901,466 1917
3.) $146,066,470 Sonic the Hedgehog 
4.) $124,736,710 Jumanji: The Next Level
5.) $124,496,308 Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
6.) $84,158,461 Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey
7.) $77,047,087 Dolittle
(I included two more due to Star Wars & Jumanji opening in 2019.)

I really have no idea where this is opening ...
