Rush? I must admit, I haven't heard of that one. Any details?

Hey Surfer, you know Divergent was going to be my next pick

Personally I think this is one of the most interesting premises for months. I'm more and more intrigued about this movie and hope it's as good as I want it to be. I think it might get lost in the shuffle, but I'll be going to see it. What a cast!

I'm really torn now. A lot of mid-level picks really, I'm not seeing anything that could really break out. So I guess I'll pick the one my Son has been telling me to get: Mortal Instruments . This one is much more like Twilight than the Maze Runner, and those have not done well. But I think this has...

I noticed that so far I've only chosen movies that start with F, M, or R. Do I branch from this? Do I choose a new letter? Nah. Free Bird won't be the biggest animated hit of the year, but I think it might do well until Frozen steals all its business away. So, Free Bird for me please.

AAARRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH Lego was the one film I really wanted. Can't believe it was left this late. One of the most popular toys on the planet with a major studio pushing and major voice talent. Destined for success. Surfer, you're dead to me.... Totally agree. On the first part. Maybe not so mu...

Morning, Walleye. Red 2 is a solid pick, although to be honest I think I could see this making only around $60m due to the competition around it. Hopefully it will appeal to that older crowd. Agreed. It's that late July timeframe that could go to any number of films. I'm hoping Red just happens to ...

I'm up. And I'll take Red 2. Ready for another day of drafting

So, My question is, can Rio 2 keep it's April date? And if so, will it make 100mil in 19 days? I'm betting yes to both. Rio 2, please.

Yeah, that was my next choice. Good pick!

Yeah, that was my other choice instead of the Maze Runner. Could be a big mistake. I'll want to remember that one in about 10 months and see if I was right. Regardless, I think Jack Ryan will do awfully well. Chris Pine is going to be a huge star in about 3 weeks.

Noah is an interesting pick. It could be big, like Oz this year, especially if the Christian crowd gets behind it. We've done that in big ways and small over the years (Passion of the Christ, or Soul Surfer as examples). But it's not a sure thing. Good, bold pick, though. I like it!

The Maze Runner is going to play much more like Chronicle (65M) and the first Percy Jackson (90m) than Beautiful Creatures. Boys love the Maze Runner, not just girls, and on Valentines Day that's what you want. It may not warrant such a high pick, it may still tank. But I've got a feeling it just ma...

Yes, now I don't know what to do. I like Wolf as well. Another strong contender. So, back to the summer blockbusters? There are a few left, of course. But I think the surprise hit of February will be The Maze Runner ! I know most of the teen lit movies have not translated to big success, but I think...

I'm torn between a few movies now. Some I want to see, and hope they do well, and some I won't be seeing, even though they may do well. What to do? Be hopeful I guess. I'm going with The Monuments Men , the December George Clooney film. If it hits, it should hit big. If it flops, hello First pick ne...
