edited to remove name of pick

will state name of pick if Stuck returns before someone says something

but can I change it? Nich and prolly one or two others have seen what I picked originally, so I don't know if changing is against the rules?

I regret picking that now actually, I was rushing it since I saw that I'd been up for some time :/

Oh well

That chick they got to play Sarah Connor in the new Terminator looks like a pretty terrible choice.

I'm sure it was, never saw it. But it did 150M. And second one pretty much has to do better. It's almost a rule with this genre

Yea that's the one I was going to go with, but the Dec 25th date scared me. If it releases on time should be a good bet for 200+ but I went with the safer pick

For those curious that was the one that I had picked originally as my second round pick, but similarly I was worried about the late release date coupled with the competition from Star Wars.

Pan

Bit skeptical about this one, but these types of movies seem to do well these days.

I'll weigh in as the resident Marvelgeek of the thread.

Firstly, the only reason we're getting a FF reboot this year is for legal reasons so that the rights to the Fantastic Four don't revert back to Marvel (now owned by Fox). That being said, I feel the studio is rushing this movie and it won't end up being that good.

Secondly, I'm not too thrilled about the cast. Not too much name recognition.

However, it's possible that while it has nothing to do with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, people may see it thinking it's a sequel in that Universe, so it may actually pull in some inadvertent success from Age of Ultron.

We're probably looking at around 100-125M but it might turn out to be a good pick at this point in the draft. I would be very surprised if this did anywhere near 200M

There is a movie I really want to take but hate the release date. So give me Paul Blart 2: Fat guy on a little Segway

I wonder if your release date worry is the same as mine
