I've check several sites, and I can't find any reporting for "The Phantom" or "The God Committee". Is there a results site that lists these titles?

The God Committee was released by Vertical and they almost never report. Meanwhile, Greenwich, The Phantom's distributor, only seems to report if the film isn't day-and-date.

Well, if that's the case, I will likely drop both titles from the league.

Related to Vertical, you might want to remove Out of Gas, I mean Out of Death, from the price list.

I have to wonder how Black Widow is playing with audiences. The film is very dark for a Marvel film, and I have to wonder if legs will be short because of it.
It's not destroying. It's making something new.

Not to mention the fact that it's available on Disney+. Still, it was my first movie theater experience in 16 months, and I loved it.

I have to imagine it's doing fine. The men's rights idiots on IMDb haven't attacked it like they did Captain Marvel.

Looks like Summertime had a great PTA. That will make Boosh happy, as he's the only one who picked it....

All I knew about it was that it was from the director of Blindspotting and that did well so I expected decent results, even with a smaller distributor.

Yep, GREAT call, that. I was also interested in "Summertime", but I ended up not valuing it as greatly (or, correctly). Nice one, Boushh. :)
I remain, as always.

The Boss Baby: Family Business, $8.88M (3 points)

Hey guys,
I'm a little late in the game, I had the resurrection of my 2020 Korean Film Festival in late June/early July, and now i'm already prepping for the 2021 edition in late October. I'll sleep in December I guess.

So here's my Ultimate slate :
- The Green Knight $8
- Suicide Squad $34
- Annette $4
- Shang-Chi $35
- Malignant $6
- The Card Counter $5
- The Eyes of Tammy Faye $5
- Blue Bayou $3

It's going to interesting to see how The Green Knight does. A24 badly needs a hit but from looking at the trailers, it does not look cheap or mainstream. I haven't seen a budget listed but it looks like a $50-75 million movie before advertising and DCP's. I can't see it making more than $10 million domestically but maybe that vocal minority of A24 fans see it multiple times.
