Predict the Box Office (New Game)

Okay, I'm online 5 nights a week and sometimes I get bored. Now is one of those times, so while I was sitting here bored I ended up thinking of a new game that could end up being pretty fun...

It will be played once a week. Your goal is to predict the top 10 films at the box office for the upcoming weekend (Friday- Sunday)in order of which film will pull in the most money.

I will always make sure to post what new releases will be opening that weekend as well.

This week's new releases....
  • Poseidon
  • Just My Luck
  • Goal! The Dream Begins



So basically, you want to predict the top 10 films of the upcoming weekend in order.

A weekly winner will be declared on Monday of each week based on who had the most right answers. 10 points will be given for picking the box office winner, 9 for second, 8 for third, 7 for fourth, 6 for 5th and 5 for every correct pick in positions 6-10 on the box office chart. In the event of a tie, whoever posted their picks first will be deemed the winner.

Good luck to all.

If it turns out to be fun or well received, then you can expect to see this game again next week, and the week after and the week after, etc...


Just to give people a little aid the first week, here's last weekend's box office numbers...

1 Mission: Impossible III $47,743,273
2 RV $11,004,706
3 An American Haunting $5,783,508
4 Stick It $5,479,658
5 United 93 $5,347,860
6 Ice Age: The Meltdown $4,161,724
7 Silent Hill $4,013,871
8 Scary Movie 4 $3,690,454
9 Akeelah and the Bee $3,369,630
10 Hoot NL $3,368,197


Oh and by the way, since there isn't really any way I could cheat in this, I will be playing too.
