Well, Laremy is out on a little Memorial Day vacation so I am filling in for him. I actually think it's because he ended up getting the top nine places right, but was so far off on Indy that he is a little embarrassed, but what do I know? Let's begin shall we…
#1 movie predicted correctly: 5 Week In A Row
$126 million is a lot in four days, but Laremy's prediction of $158.6 million in four days was astronomical considering Indy 4 has pulled in an estimated $151 million in its first five days of release with a worldwide total approaching $300 million… not bad I say, not bad.
Result: 126.0 million (My rank: #1, $32.6m off)
Narnia finishes its first complete week and it now sits just shy of $100 million. It's definitely not the same kind of cash the first film pulled in. I wonder what it's going to take for Disney to consider this one a success? Based on the $200 million budget I am going to guess a lot more.
Result: 28.6 million (My rank: #2, $6.9m off)
Now over $257 million domestically I would say Iron Man is a success and I would also say it still claims the description of "Best Film of Summer 2008" so far… that is blockbuster wise considering The Edge of Heaven is a better movie.
Result: 25.6 million (My rank: #3, $0.2m off)
Now here is a bad movie for yah. If you are still supporting this movie please try and stop eating paste, it is obviously hurting your decision making.
Result: 11.1 million (My rank: #4, $0.6m off)
A friend of mine told me this is their favorite movie of 2008 so far and even though I don't agree, I can respect that.
Result: 5.2 million (My rank: #5, $0.3m off)
Decent movie, but I want to see Fey and Poehler team up for a nice R-rated comedy.
Result: 4.2 million (My rank: #6, $0.3m off)
Made of Honor must be sad that now all the paste eaters are watching What Happens in Vegas.
Result: 4.2 million (My rank: #7, $0.7m off)
This movie is still around? Who hasn't seen this yet?
Result: 2.1 million (My rank: #8, $0.8m off)
I don't even have the energy to comment on this one.
Result: 1.2 million (My rank: #9, $0.5m off)
When will Laremy stop trying to wedge Forbidden Kingdom in this final spot? Had he learned from last week he would have gone 10/10.
Result: 0.9 million (My rank: Not Ranked)
