87%, #108.
Meh. If I wouldn't have changed my contest winning Narnia predict at the last second to 54.2, I would've done a bit more damage. Overall though, that wasn't the movie that killed me, Syriana was. 66% on it. GRRRRRRR....
This helps my average though as always. Top 300 here we come!  _________________Shack’s top 50 tv shows - viewtopic.php?f=8&t=90227

Congrats Ahmed! Another KJ-dominated week. I gained some ground on Samweis but very little on xiayun. I'll need some luck these next two weekends to have a shot at first.

Finally broke my streak of outside top-10 finishes.
Good job, everyone!
I'm hoping for a 10-movie week instead of 12 because it will mean 8 new wide releases and 2 one-week holdovers. No easy score in that.

Nice, 10th place and my third highest score. Decemeber really is my month, 90.8, 89.1 and now 90.4. Hopefully I won't mess up next weekend.

Two-day predictions for Rumor Has It and Wolf Creek, 4-day for everything else. Should be very interesting...

Otherwise, looks to be a very fun week.

Well, I'm 0.02% behind Mr. Sparkle, hehe. Avg. Rank is now at 57.6, Avg. Score at 84.1%.
Not a great weekend by any means, but it is 51st place.

And I've just noticed that I've finally entered the top 100 and I'm number 7 for the month of December. This is a good day.

6th is great, and I'm really proud, but I thought I predicted 2. 4 for JF, and am bewildered that it cost me 1st place in the Derby.

Wow, we have to predict The Producers for 4-day (Fri-Mon), with it being limited on friday and saturday, and wide on sunday and monday.
Rumor Has It and Wolf Creek are expectedly Sun-Mon predictions, and the rest are for 4-day (Fri-Mon).
This is going to be an interesting weekend!!
PEACE, Mike.

PEACE, Mike. Friday and Saturday combined gross will likely be less than $0.1M for The Producers, so it's ignorable.

Thanks everyone, I really didn't expect to win, as I made those predictions in about 20 minutes.
And I have to thank xiayun and DP07 for their magnificent work in the Yahoo Review Thread, without it, I would have gone with my initial 58.5 Kong prediction. And also thanks to Dr. Lecter for saying The Family Stone is nothing like trailers make it look like, tjat was also very useful.
