Okay, I have created the December Regulars Leagues.


Since I'm picking, I chose categories that I figured would be okay.


Ultimate (DEC) - Favorite Robin Williams Film
Box Office (DEC) - Favorite Film of 2014

I had no idea that I had won the last regulars league. Got confused when it was posted that JohnErle and Brockster won the Sept Regulars leagues on Dec 2.

:lol: It's funny though that you brought up the delay while you're in fact the one who should have chosen the theme.

Doubt it... I think my Ult score will fall as more people finish their slates and see their IMDb ratings rise... for the BO FY, I just have to hope that Hobbit 3 underperforms. I have a feeling there's a chance of that though, Tolkien fans are starting to get disenchanted with this franchise and the CGI has gotten ridiculous.

Penultimate week, boys.



Ultimate Full-Year Round 10 (1 week to go)

T1. kblane, 26 pts (Hunger Games, Imitation Game)
T1. Walleye413, 26 pts (Inherent Vice… Sniper)
3. Brockster, 21.5 pts (Hunger Games… Selma)
4. jas_8382, 20 pts (Imitation Game … 2 hidden, $23 unspent)
5. Chienfantome, 17.5 pts (Hunger Games, Imitation Game… Sniper)
6. aquamann2001, 12 pts (Hunger Games, Imitation Game, The Hobbit… 1 hidden, $4 unspent)
7. Ron Burgundy, 11 pts (Hobbit… Unbroken, Sniper)
8. bestfim, 10 pts (Inherent Vice, Museum… 2 hidden, $13 unspent)

A tie. With one week to go. Naturally.



Ultimate Half-Year (2) Round 5 (1 week to go)

1. W, 37.5 pts (Hunger Games, Imitation Game)
2. Spectre, 37 pts (Imitation Game)
3. Walleye413, 34 pts (Inherent Vice)
4. jas_8382, 24.5 pts (Imitation Game... 2 hidden, $23 unspent)
5. Scripps, 24 pts (Hobbit… Sniper, Big Eyes)
6. Chienfantome, 23 pts (Imitation Game)
7. Ron Burgundy, 21 pts (Museum 3… Big Eyes, Sniper, Selma)
8. kblane, 19 pts (none… 1 hidden, $2 unspent)
9. aquamann2001, 17 pts (Hunger Games, Imitation Game, Museum… 1 hidden, $4 unspent)
10. numbersix, 14.5 pts (Hunger Games, Imitation Game… Woods, Sniper)
11. bestfilm, 12.5 pts (Inherent Vice… 2 hidden, $10 unspent)

Oh, this will be close!



Box Office Full-Year Round 10 (1 week to go)

1. Spectre, $527.3M (none… 2 hidden, $7 unspent)
T2. aquamann2001, $492.5M (Hunger Games… 3 hidden, $10 unspent)
T2. Chienfantome, $492.5M (6, Hunger Games… Top Five, Interview, Sniper)
4. jas_8382, $487.1M (Hunger Games… 2 hidden, $10 unspent)
5. silversurfer19, $465.9M (Hunger Games)
6. W, $460.899M (Hunger Games)
7. SuperShaan, $460.892 (Hunger Games)
8. Ron Burgundy, $460.827M (Hobbit, Annie… Unbroken)
9. Banks, $425.9M (Hunger Games… Into the Woods)
10. Scripps, $394.3M (Hunger Games, Hobbit, Annie)

I have to give Ron B the slight edge over Spectre here. It all depends on how well The Hobbit and Annie hold, and how Spectre last film (whatever it is) does.




Box Office Half-Year (2) Round 5 (1 week to go)

1. Banks, $543.3M (Hunger Games… Unbroken)
2. Spectre, $527.3M (none… 2 hidden, $7 unspent)
3. leestu, $494.2M (Hunger Games… Unbroken)
4. JohnErle, $485.0M (Hunger Games, Hobbit)
5. aquamann2001, $483.1M (Big Hero 6, Hunger Games … Into the Woods)
6. Chienfantome, $475.2M (Hunger Games, Hobbit)
7. numbersix, $461.1M (Hunger Games)
8. SuperShaan, $460.9M (Hunger Games)
9. Walleye413, $352.0M (Hobbit)
10. Scripps , $394.3M (Hunger Games, Hobbit, Annie)

Can JohnErle catch Banks at the wire for the win?

I really sucked this round.
I hope I can do better in the mini-super leagues.

Projected Super League Winners

Remember, this is still VERY early. These are based on projections and my own intuition. They are not set in stone, unless specified.


Ultimate Full Year

Winner: jas_8382

The impressive OWs of both Into the Woods and Unbroken will be enough to put him over the top, just ahead of kblane and Walleye.



Ultimate Half Year (2nd Half)

Winner: W

Despite not having a single December film on his slate, seven of W's films produced exceptional numbers. This will be enough to keep him ahead of the late-charging jas and Walleye.



Box Office Full Year

Winner: Ron Burgundy

Going into the final weekend, Spectre still has the lead, but it won't hold. The Hobbit and Annie need only combined for $20M this weekend for Ron B to win, and I can't see that not happening.



Box Office Half Year (2nd Half)

Winner: BanksIsDaFuture

JohnErle mounted a late run with The Hobbit, but Banks' selection of Gone Girl will be enough to give him the win.




And as for Player of the Year.... well, neither aquamann nor Chien won any tournaments... I'm open to suggestions as to how to break the tie. Unless we want to just give it to both of them.
