Post WOKJ Monthly Box Office Contest - September
The winner of this contest will be closest to the pin when adding all the month's openings together. For example if there was 3 films and you were 5 million off on one film, 3 million off on another 2 million off on the third, you would be a total of 10 million off for the month.

The openings to predict this month:

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings
The Card Counter
Malignant
Queenspins
Copshop
Blue Bayou
Cry Macho
The Eyes of Tammy Faye
Dear Evan Hanson

All predictions must be made before the first film opens, therefore mid day Thursday to avoid Shang Chi midnight numbers.

Not a great month to start this admittedly. Here are some trailers for the lazy

















I probably could have left off Blue Bayou but whatever

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings - 60 million
The Card Counter - 5 million
Malignant - 18 million
Queenspins - 2 million
Copshop - 5 million
Blue Bayou - 500k
Cry Macho - 10 million
The Eyes of Tammy Faye - 2 million
Dear Evan Hanson - 15 million

Last 2 weeks of the month are really rough, Cry Macho would be the breakout if seniors weren't terrified to go the theatre and with it being easily available in HBO Max. No idea what to do with the suicide musical. A hit at the end of the day but maybe Greatest Showmans its way there.

I wonder how much of the word "cop" will impact the movie's BO potential. I feel in general there is a cringe about cops and not many people would be willing to pay for a movie celebrating "cops" in any shape or form.

Yeah I don’t see much crossover between the super woke and the people who consistently turn out for Butler.

I'm assuming that if the real box office is $100,000 and I predicted $1 million, my "error" would be $1 million by the rules of this contest. So for the first 3 days of the movies box office (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) my predictions are

Shang-Chi and the Legends of the Ten Rings: $66 million
The Card Counter: $9 million
Malignant: $18 million
Queenspins: $19 million
Cophop: $12 million
Blue Bayou: $1 million
Cry Macho: $13 million
The Eyes of Tammy Faye: $2 million
Dear Evan Hansen: $14 million

With a 3 day of 75.5 current standings (low is good)

Jack Sparrow 5.5
rftapeout 9.5
MadGez 10.5
Shack 15.5
Magic Mike 15.5
Corpse 16
Algren 45.5

Jack leads due to Rev not playing although rftapeout is all in on next week with bold Queenspins prediction, and Magic Mike and Corpse potentially could make a move if Malignant flops
