Current rankings
filmman – 30

Joe Webb – 23.5
James – 22.5
Jackrabbit Slim – 19.5
Jeanine – 17

Sorry about not being to come up with better bonus questions, but I have a feeling it’s gonna be a tight race at the top. Just like on AGEBOC!
Oh, and remember/look/adhere to the deadline.

Dang…missed an extra two by some…random mathematical number under 100,000.

Ugh….I’m nervous about this schizophrenic AGEBOC.
Lawless, Possession. Lawless, Possession.
I really feel confident that Lawless, no matter how frigging awesome it looks, is going to tank, and the movie-cum-pap, Possession, is going to enforce what so many already know…that quality never, ever dictates ticket sales.

Well crap, I am now mathematically eliminated from the top prize. Still hoping for a Possession win close-to-but-slightly-above-$14.65m-or-below-$15.5m!
I’m mathematically eliminated from finishing anything but last. Now that guesses are in, all I can accomplish this week is preventing Rob from winning – everyone else picked The Possession.
Good luck Brian!
Oogieloves is on track to have the worst opening week………………….ever.

Nah, I don’t want to do that to you, honestly. Winning the last week, while mired in last place regardless, would just feel like the AGEBOC gods mocking me. I should have picked Oogieloves and retained my dignity.
I missed out this week, but good luck to everyone still in the running! Oogieloves for the weekend win!
Since the Possession is overperforming, looks like Juan will win the week, but since Filmman will get both the bonus questions correct, he will hold off the charge, and win the grand prize!
Dang, if I hadn’t missed those two weekends or whatever it was, I could have had a shot. Still – good showing. Gave it a good run. Congrats to filmman.
…now to get those keys back to James without him noticing and reset the computers in the secret lair before I accept my accolades.
Congrats filmman, well played.
Congrats filmman, you glorious son of a bitch!
Still waiting for actuals, but it definitely looks solid for filmman.
