Here's some breakdowns...

41 films were picked amongts the 13 of us.

There are 11 films everyone picked, namely Dark Knight Rises, The Hobbit, Twilight 5, Avengers, Spidey, Ice Age 3, Men in Black 3, Skyfall, Brave,
Hunger Games, and Bourne 4.

Everyone had Dark Knight as the #1 film of the year except UDM and Silversurfer, who both thought The Hobbit will beat it.

Englishozzy, you only seemed to pick 19 films instead of 20, so unless you want to rely on your bench you should probably tell us what you think your #16 film will be.

Shryke is the only one not to pick Rise of the Guardians. Risky.
Boosch and Tranny were the only ones not to pick Prometheus.

5 people (Boosch, Shryke, UDM, SS, Ozzy) took Jack the Giant Killer, so they are now onto their 1st bench pick. In Boosch's case, it's for the best.

9 films were picked by only 1 person. Boosch was the only one to take Frankenweenie, Hotel Transylvania, and Titanic 3D. UDM picked American Reunion, Tranny picked Paranormal Activity 4, Aquamann picked This is 40, John Erle took Neighbourhood Watch, W took Total Recall, and Ron B took what I think is the most inspired risk... Lincoln.

And now The Lorax looks like it'll make a guaranteed 130-150m, there's 8 of us who should be happy.

World War Z has moved to 2013, which means Tranny, Shryke, Aquamann, and W all rely on a bench pick. John Erle had it on his bench and loses it. Shryke also picked Jack the Giant Killer so if any of your other movies are delayed, you're at a disadvantage. Aquamann benefits the most, as WWZ's delay means the overperforming The Lorax is his next film.

Well well well, we have liftoff...

The Hunger Games seems to have bagged a nice little take at the BO, which prompted me to see where everyone placed it on their Super lists.

6. johnerle, aquaman
7. W, Chien
8. -
9. UDM
10. Banks, Tranny
11. SS, six
12. Ron B
13. Ozzy
14. Boosh, Shryke
15. -

Seems those who waited last had some advantages after all, though, it seems some players are in trouble already with 1 or 2 of their films being moved to 2013, and some choosing John Carter, which has already been beaten by The Vow, Safe House, Act of Valor, The Lorax, 21 Jump Street and The Hunger Games.

I was a little chicken with Hunger Games. I just about put it ahead of MiBIII since TLJ isn't in half (or probably most) of the movie, but MiB was a proven franchise so I went with the safer option.
Tenet: Criterion Edition. Now with more Backwards Man.

Yeah well, no one saw it go that high a couple of months before its release, I guess...

Almost all of us had GI Joe Retaliation on our lists, which is bad since it's been bumped to 2013.

JohnErle picks up The Watch.
Chien picks up That's My Boy.
Aquamann picks up Django Unchained.
RonBurgundy picks up Taken 2.
I pick up The Expendables 2.
Tranny picks up Rock of Ages.
Ozzy picks up Django Unchained.
SS picks up Dark Shadows.
Six picks up John Carter.
UDM picks up Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (because of Gravity getting pushed)
And Shryke picks up nothing because this is the 4th movie on his list to get pushed to 2013 (Gravity, GI Joe 2, JAck The Giant Killer, & World War Z) so I guess his list will just be 18 movies now.
