Fantasy Moguls [Season 2: Nov-Feb]

[LiddyRules]

Started a new league.

http://www.fantasymoguls.com/movies/boxoffice/group/view?groupSeasonId=4693

Password is opieanthony. We can't take movies like Bee Movie or American Gangster but everything else is open.

[Simby19]

oooooh I'm so in

[WhiskeyWhispers]

I'm in again. Couldn't join from the link you posted for some reason, I had to search for the league.

[weakside]

I'm in!

[LiddyRules]

Right now I'm stuck between deciding between Dewey Cox and PS I love you. Walk Hard looks funny but PSILY might be the movie to make vaginas happy. Decisions, decisions.

[Perch1019]

Can we still join the league? I cant figure out how to get into it.


Edit: im in.

[jagsfans]

I'm in. I've got a lot of January movies though. Box office is usually slow in Jan.

[WhiskeyWhispers]

Bump.

[DeltaPin]

Monkey House Pictures has reopened

[Budyzir]

Brown Coat LLC is in.

[fandango86]

And the champ is in!

[Fr. Dougal]

I'm in. :)

ooooh I'm tied for last! Watch out, fuckers!


Then again, Beowulf was #1 this weekend so that better boost me.

[LiddyRules]

A lot of our movies aren't released yet.

[Simby19]

I know. I was being a goose.

[Dre]

Ok, how do I join?

EDIT: I'm a silly goose, I just couldn't join from the original link, I searched for the league and joined, all set!

Hate to be Ned Negative, but as your biggest budget movie, a $28 million opening probably ends this thing for you before it even starts. :(

I'll probably shine for a week or two. :(

[LiddyRules]

Hate to be Ned Negative, but as your biggest budget movie, a $28 million opening probably ends this thing for you before it even starts. :( Yeah, I was expecting a far huger opening than that and it's not even on my list.

Come on broads, get your cunts juiced up for Enchanted. Hairspray made over $100 million and I can imagine the same for this one. It has Grey's Anatomy Guy and Cyclops. (Also Amy Adams is hot.)

ooooooh off to a decent start. I'm sure I'll crash and burn.

[LiddyRules]

This weekend's BO totals:

1. Enchanted- $35 million (50 million total/ 1 week)
2. This Christmas- $18 million
3. Beowulf- $16 million (56 million total/2 weeks)
4. Hitman- $13 million
5. Bee Movie- $12 million.

Mist was number 9 with $9 million.

I bring this up because I have both This Christmas and Enchanted on my list and they totalled $19. Take that!

[WhiskeyWhispers]

Tuesday night I switched Hitman for Enchanted. Best move I could have made. It should continue on top for at least 2 more weeks, there isn't much coming out.

Fred Claus has done pretty good considering the first week it was out it didn't do all that well.

[fandango86]

I'm so pissed. I wanted to take This Christmas but got confused because they had another movie called Perfect Holiday (formerly This Christmas) and ended up taking some stupid Jason Statham movie insttead.

I didn't see Enchanted coming. I hadn't heard a thing about it and didn't even see a commercial until a couple days ago. Guess I'm not the target audience.

[Budyzir]

I didn't think much of Enchanted as I was making my picks, Based on the commercials it looked stupid. I thought The Golden Compass would have been the better pick.

Ha-ha, I'm on top of Simby! :action-sm

No, your not the only one, since today is Tuesday I was going to check the site later, you beat it to me.

Wow, this season is not working out for me. Seems Enchanted and Fred Clause worked for the front runners.

[weakside]

I picked a lot of movies that are coming out more towards February so won't know how I'm doing for a while.

[DeltaPin]

A lot of totals will jump this week with the release of I Am Legend.

[LiddyRules]

I still pay attention it's just a lot of our main movies haven't come out yet. Everytime I see commercials for P.S. I Love You I really really hope it hits, then get nauseated it was made.

And I will probably make a new one in January even though this current one won't be over since it'll be evenly spaced throughout the year and consistency is good.

[fandango86]

A lot of totals will jump this week with the release of I Am Legend.

A lot of people picked that movie. I just couldn't shake this weird feeling it was going to flop. The early reviews are good, but unless they changed the ending from the book, this isn't exactly the type of movie people expect from Will Smith. Of course, I've been wrong before- I bet the farm on The Golden Compass. :(

[WhiskeyWhispers]

Love him or hate him, Will Smith equals box office gold. Add in the fact that nothing is really doing all that well (Golden Compass even though number 1 this week, pretty much tanked) and the ones that are due don't seem to have much box office potential, I Am Legend should destroy. Since a shitty early review, all the ones I've read since have been really positive.

[Fr. Dougal]

Yeah I think I picked some later movies too. I don't think I picked IAL... so I'll get destroyed in this one. But I do like this stuff so I'll keep playing...

[fandango86]

and the ones that are due don't seem to have much box office potential,

"whaa"

The first National Treasure made over $170 million and the first AVP made over $80 million.

Will Smith is usually good for some decent box office, but that's usually in the summertime with feel good blockbusters.

As for reviews, critics love movies where the main character commits suicide in the end. Audiences usually don't.

I really had no idea National Treasure was that popular. I have AVP but I'm not expecting that much.

I read that I Am Legend has an upbeat ending, you got a link?

[LiddyRules]

I really had no idea National Treasure was that popular. I did because I remember being confused about it, then depressed about it, then angry about it, then I just started to laugh about how stupid people are. God that movie was a piece of shit.

I read that I Am Legend has an upbeat ending, you got a link? I read that there was an ending, then they reshot the ending but I don't know which ending is the ending they end with.

[Dre]

I completely forgot about this, (boo me), but I check back and I'm in the lead, good shit, people still playing this with me? I know Simby is.

[LiddyRules]

All you Legenders?

Some amazing numbers were posted Friday for this weekend's No. 1 and No. 2 movie releases. Warner Bros' I Am Legend opens closer to $80 million than the studio's hoped-for $50 million from Friday through Sunday after making a whopping $29.6 million Friday in 3,606 theaters for first place. We're in the money! We're in the money!

[WhiskeyWhispers]

Love him or hate him, Will Smith equals box office gold.

Ca-ching!

Happy to see I'm on top again, and I'm sure the people who had Walk Hard took a big hit this week.

[LiddyRules]

Happy to see I'm on top again, and I'm sure the people who had Walk Hard took a big hit this week. I was debating between Walk Hard and PS I Love You. PSILY wasn't really a smash but it was better than WH.

I suck :(

[LiddyRules]

Cloverfield made $41 milion this weekend so unless Rambo really cleans up, I have this thing won.

[Budyzir]

Are we doing another game? I'm enjoying this stuff.

[LiddyRules]

Are we doing another game? I'm enjoying this stuff. I wanted to do one for January (so we have 4 each year, starting in Jan, ending in December) but forgot to do it but they'll be one in February.

Eh, no biggie, when ever, I'm game.

[Haulport]

I never saw this before. I this a big thing or pretty new?

[Simby19]

Yay for Cloverfield! It better boost me out of last place.

[fandango86]

Did anyone start a new season yet? I'm anxious to improve on my first to worst performance.

[Fr. Dougal]

Woo hoo! I made it to third, despite having 2 empty spots!
