What is it about Round 2.

Fingers crossed that Mike Lowrey changes the fortunes of the remaining second rounders (which are Gladiator II and Sonic 3) when he rides again. Well, Mike Lowrey did buck the trend, but IF is beginning to hold its own with some nice late legs. It will reach $100m, which ain't bad for an original property.

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Deadpool and Bad Boys first two rounds combo will be tough to beat.

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Kong x Godzilla is looking more and more impressive by the week. The fact that Bad Boys 4 probably won't reach those heights, and Apes won't either. Pretty great that it almost hit $200m. Out of nowhere, too. The previous films weren't huge or well liked. I guess it just hit at the right time.

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
In retrospect maybe I shouldn't have taken the sequel for Dune (109 million) over Inside Out (356 million)

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Ah another year of almost taking the 500/600 mil+ smash like trying to figure out which 3rd round pick to take two years ago and choosing DC Super Pets over Top Gun Maverick ... I had the 3rd pick in this draft after Deadpool and Joker were taken. It was sitting right there for me!

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Yeah but that was right after Wish bombed. "Audiences are sick of Disney" was just another 2023 trend that did not carry over into the new year, just like "Audiences are sick of franchises and want original(ish) films."

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Inside Out 2 has basically made Riggs a contender. There's a lot to be seen from the rest of his picks but he's now in with a shot whereas before last weekend I didn't think he stood a chance.

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Looks like Twisters isn't going to happen so I'm gonna need a 500 mil breakout from Wicked

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Just $14,878 separates second (Shack) and third (Rev) place. But Shack has Twisters coming up so he will remain in second.
I can't see first place being relinquished any time soon. Go Riggs!

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Darn. Just as I'm about to catch flip1, Despicable Me 4 comes out to push him way ahead again. I should probably still overtake him in the end but, well, actually it may be close. Hard to tell. He still has his top three picks, though there is an argument to suggest they will all underperform. Hard to tell. We'll see.

Yeah, not sure that Venom will be as big as I expected earlier but it should do at least 150m. I’m just annoyed I missed out on Inside Out 2 by one spot: I was hoping it would fall to me

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
The current average for Group 2 is $495 million. Based on that, only two players are doing well; Riggs and flip1.
The Moana and Joker sequels really have to blow up for Flava to come back.

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
It's funny how things work out. I have been hunting down 4th place for weeks and weeks, and I will just about overtake Shack (who is 4th) in the next day or two ... only for Twisters to come out on Friday and put him straight back ahead of me, lol. The good thing is that Rev is in 3rd place, and only $1m ahead of Shack, so I will overtake him as well, and he has nothing coming out for ages ... by which point I will be over a billion. So I will be fourth soon. Maybe third, too, because I have Wolverine coming out in ten days, and I think that will be infinitely more successful than Twisters. And flip1 is about to regain the lead from Riggs. It was good while it lasted, Riggs.

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Twisters saved my draft, actually not feeling too bad now since I have a lot of meat on the bone with Wicked, Transformers, Here, Terrifier 3 and The Wild Robot.

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
Totally. Twisters success makes me doubt my entire draft now. I don't think I can beat you.

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
It Ends With Us looks like a breakout. That combined with Horizon 2 (hopefully) moving (and thus getting an instant $80M+ from Longlegs) might save me from my bad picks in rounds 2 and 3. But probably not enough for the win even if Joker hits the $550M limit. Wicked was so close to getting back to me too.

 Re: 2024 Draft Group 2
I crossed the $500 million line fourth with a time of 205 days!
Now I plan to be the first in the group to pass $750m and then a billion.
