Spiderman should cap somewhat easily!

I also think you won't finish in last this year, think Stuck & Wes are the favorites for that

Waiting on master's final picks to assign odds

Yea we may not be in contention but I certainly think a lot of our back end is strong enough to keep us in the middle of the pack

I'll take Unforgettable. When the Bough Breaks made 30 with a far inferior cast and worse opening day, so I think this could pull in 40+

Saw Fantastic Beasts this weekend (hated it) but in the trailers for Chucks first two picks one looked incredible and one looked really really awful

I like Pwns overall draft, But having 20% of his movies not actually going to hit this year is gonna take a toll

if the goal was to pick the movies with the highest gross multiplied by rotten tomatoes score, which movies go in the top few? which drop big time other than justice league?

Move furious 8, wonder woman, transformers and pirates out of the top ten, move up Kong, planet of the apes, Coco and Thor. Justice League falls to 9 or so

The original did 241 and sequel 194M

I'm not thrilled with my having to take Kingsman round 3 but transformers and coco should do well and Smurfs round 4 may make up for Kingsman, plus all Eyez on me is >100M in round 9

How much do you think Transformers will make?

The RT bump for 7 was solely for Paul Walkers death. The movie was terrible

I disagree pretty strongly with several of those odds. I agree with having derwi as the favourite though.

domer, what odds would you give me for each of these scenarios?

A) Any one of your bottom 4 winning
B) At least one of your bottom 4 podiuming
C) The draft finishes in the exact order you have listed above

Ldo, only go along with this if you're actually willing to make any of these bets. I may also want to chuck a few bucks at some of the odds you've listed. Just looking to rail this a bit harder like last year
