I.hope 4-1
nghtvsn 4-1

Chippy 3-2

Zwackerm 2-3
MGKC 2-3

Rev 1-4
Stuffp 1-4

There are no more zeroes on the board as stuffp was able to knock off i.hope. He will have to run the gauntlet again this week against the now on fire nghtvsn, who needed a near perfect week to take out Rev and got just that. Zwackerm and MGKC will have the chance to recover from losses against each other this week. Adding to that match is their previous rhetoric on the potential of The Grinch, which couldn't be more far apart. I think all three movies are tough to predict this week actually. Hoping for the best, but expecting not that for the one I want to see most - Overlord. Chippy draws the dealer and will hope to take advantage of that. With some help, he could be tied for first by the end of Sunday.

Week 6 - The Grinch

Chip v dealer
Rev v i.hope
mgkc v zwackerm
Stuffp v nightvsn

And our spider sense's shall gift us the knowledge for:

Dr. Suess' The Grinch 3-day
The Girl In The Spider's Web: A New Dragon Tattoo Story 3-day
Overlord 3-day
Bohemian Rhapsody drop
The Front Runner PTA

The Front Runner will open on Tuesday in 5 theaters but we will only predict Fri-Sun. Good luck to everyone except The Grinch because I want to keep my presents.

My predictions:

The Grinch - $60.01M
The Girl - $17.34M
Overlord - $8.43M
Bohemian -51.4%
The Front Runner - $27,550

zwackerm - you better predict a $1 million opening for The Grinch. I expect nothing more.

stuffp's not having it easy. He plays the top two one week after the other.

Well my Girl prediction sure seems terrible now lol. Should be an easy point for Chippy there.

Went to the Browns game, had a lot of fun and needed a nap after. But I’ll still have those results up tonight. Haven’t looked too much into them, but if you went high on The Grinch and low on Spider’s Web and Front Runner then you are probably a winner.

nghtvsn |||||| Stuffp

$62.55M The Grinch $61M
$14.25M Girl In Spider's Web $10.85M
$7.95M Overlord $9.5M
-47.5% Bohemian Rhapsody -53.5%
$24,500 The Front Runner $29,575

Ngtvsn gets the edge here to up his winning streak to 4 weeks in a row. I'd say Bohemian was the key to the victory. It was difficult to tell if it would be frontloaded and it turned out to not be at all. Stuffp meanwhile goes 1-1 in his gauntlet against the top teams of the young season. I bet Overlord drops down to about $9.5M in the actuals so he was almost right on, but will have to go back to the drawing board nonetheless.

I.hope ||||| Rev

$60M The Grinch $53.2M
$8.3M Girl In Spider's Web $12.4M
$8.9M Overlord $9.2M
-46% Bohemian Rhapsody -49.4%
$18,000 The Front Runner $34,550

Rev has also had to face the top two teams in the league in November and has fared about as well as the rest of the league thus far. Luckily for him, it is still early and brighter times are ahead - perfect conditions to try and bounce back in to the top 4. I.hope meanwhile is back to business, not even losing a step after last weeks upset loss. I know the tide was turning against it later in the week, but going so low on Spider is impressive even for a co-league leader.

MGKC ||||| Zwackerm

$63.1M The Grinch $1
$12.6M Girl In Spider's Web $11.34M
$4.7M Overlord $8.35M
-42.5% Bohemian Rhapsody -51.3%
$16,500 The Front Runner $34,000

Zwackerm's actual Grinch prediction was $56.43M but I figured he could use a laugh after taking an L and having to witness Illumination achieve yet another big hit. They are kind of annoying now aren't they? I will still ride with a Despicable Me 4 though. MGKC was all over the place this week, getting the closest predictions on Bohemian and Front Runner, but tying me for worst prediction of the week with Overlord. It is enough for a victory though and it will bring his record back up to even, holding on to that crucial 4th place spot.

dealer ||||| Chippy

$60.01M The Grinch $69M
$17.34M Girl In Spider's Web $11.1M
$8.43M Overlord $9.2M
-51.4% Bohemian Rhapsody -45%
$27,550 The Front Runner $27,000

The Munk gets probably the easiest victory of the season as my predictions were way off this week. But that is how the cookie crumbles as they say. Assuming he was playing someone with decent numbers, Chip would have still been impressive with the low Bohemian drop and high Grinch predictions. Chippy also raises his record to 4-2 and has only lost to the two people in front of him. So right now he is the Los Angeles Chargers of our league.

Next week has enough excitement to avoid any PTA questions!

Fantastic Beasts 3-day
Widows 3-day
Instant Family 3-day
The Grinch drop
Bohemian Rhapsody drop

Very well could have 5 movies over $20M!

Victory ! Yes. Just squeaked by .

I felt pretty confident about my Girl In Spider's Web and Overlord numbers, the Grinch clearing 60m was not a surprise either, and not surprised I lost points on it. BR and FR I was shooting in the dark the most, too bad neither of them fell my way to getting the victory. Congrats nghtvsn anyway.
