After seeing the trailer I kind of regret it tho.
It got a load of buzz at CinemaCon so I had to take a shot on it. TBH I probably wont see it myself, but it looks like it'll be a useful awards round grab.

It will probably see you sail through the Globes at least.

Spreadsheet updated. The only change in the standings is Golden passing DH for 3rd place, thanks to the Ocean's 8 premiere.

This Friday will be a big one with Incredibles 2 opening, and to a much lesser extent, Tag.

I'm waiting for the weekend after, to see how Jurassic World does.

If it doesn't flop, I think I'll be feeling pretty secure about the first round. If it does flop... I could be screwed.

Posted: **Mon Jun 11, 2018 7:01 pm**

All my shit is fall releases, but they're pretty good fall releases. And I've got Ant Man in July which is gonna crack 200mil domestic, easy peasy.

How many people are being eliminated this round, timmer?

Only one

Posted: **Thu Jun 14, 2018 3:21 pm**

Incredibles 2 tracking at north of 130mil

Ant Man tracking at north of 80 mil.

Gonna be a good couple of weeks for box office.

Posted: **Sat Jun 16, 2018 3:33 pm**

Incredibles up to 180+

Hopefully Ant Man does better than the tracking as well. May get 120+ out of it.

Posted: **Sat Jun 16, 2018 5:01 pm**

Very pleased at how few people picked up actors from the incredibles.

I wanted that as my film, but getting those actor bucks is pretty good.

I’m feeling good about round 1.

Posted: **Sat Jun 16, 2018 5:20 pm**

I'm feeling real good about Round 1 myself.

Posted: **Mon Jun 18, 2018 2:14 pm**

As the only person in the Top 5 not to have a film open yet I feel like once my films do start opening I'll be easily top 3.

Posted: **Mon Jun 18, 2018 2:33 pm**

well really, what does it matter HOW well the box office does?

in the end, only one person leaves this stage and then it's how well you do with awards.

box office numbers are just to get you to awards, if I'm not mistaken.

Posted: **Mon Jun 18, 2018 2:33 pm**

so I regret being at all bothered by "numbers".

Posted: **Mon Jun 18, 2018 3:21 pm**

They're good for bragging rights, at least.

And as for awards, I'm confident I'll pick enough of those up to keep me in the running anyway

Spreadsheet updated.

JJJ still killin with Deadpool 2
Golden moves up to 2nd spot with Ocean's 8 still truckin and a chunk of Incredibles 2
INH rams right into 4th with Incredibles 2
Incredibles 2 acting propelled MP7 as well, knocking DH down to 6th

Iron Dwarf is in the hot seat with 3 films opening already and none grossing $10 million, but only 1 acting spot has been burned so far so the season is early...

No one will win this playing nice. It's fucking cut throat. But the rules are clear man I'm sorry.

Fwiw the single most profitable actor pick last year? Stan Lee.

Thanks for the updates timmer! I just want to ensure you saw the last few switcharoos in the transaction thread -- may want to check.

Posted: **Tue Jun 19, 2018 1:01 am**

Thx, I missed the last Bernadette moves!

My laptop is dead so I will update the spreadsheet from work tomorrow!

As Jurassic Park is not a flop I'm now very confident that I will not be losing in the first round.

This Fall, DharmaHelper Presents:

Money.

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 4:54 pm**

The job isn't to have lots of money. Its to be one step away from elimination because you have so many oscar films on your roster!

Saw that today.

Well, not Fucking Incredibles 2, but Incredibles 2.

Posted: **Wed Jul 04, 2018 12:59 am**

I've been meaning to go see it, might soon.

Posted: **Wed Jul 04, 2018 1:24 am**

I saw it yesterday. It was alright. That kind of thing usually doesn't do a lot for me.

Posted: **Wed Jul 04, 2018 8:36 am**

It was good, but terribly predictable, and not as fun as the first. The sequel was even in some parts borderline annoying.

Posted: **Sat Jul 07, 2018 1:49 pm**

Woo lads 100+ million weekend for ya boi

Mary Poppins Returns is moving from Dec. 25 to Dec. 19... may not sound significant but it puts it directly in the way of Aquaman and shows increasing confidence in the film.

A couple more days for BO money to get in there. *And* I've got Lin-Manuel so "Supporting Actor in a Comedy/Musical" is like...mine.
