Shryke, just noticed you have me down for The Aftermath. I switched that for High Life a few weeks back.

So you did. I'll make the switch this weekend. Those hundreds of dollars more could make all the difference!

Well, if it was Shazam I probably would have kept quiet.

4/12:

4/19:
Breakthrough (Walleye, 12th round)
The Curse of La Llorona (Chien, 15th round)
Penguins (JAS, 16th round)
Fast Color (Spectre, WW)



4/26:
Avengers: Endgame (JAS, 3rd round)

My predicted finish:

1-2. Walleye/JAS (too close to call)
3-4. Buscemi/Six (too close to call)
5. Chien
6. Spectre
7. aquamann
8. Shaan
9. leestu
10. Geezer

Assuming my math is correct I have a 270 million lead on Jas. Will Little and Breakthrough keep me at that much of a lead? Will Endgame make more than 270 million in one weekend? Honestly I thought I had lost this sucker once Greyhound got pushed, but now I'm thinking I may just pull this off after all.

Breakthrough's going to surprise and extend Chrissy Metz's fifteen minutes. The trailer has over 100 million views on YouTube.

I will not settle for 5th place ! I still want my traditional Top 3 finish and I haven't given up on it

After and Curse will net you anywhere from $20-50m, so who knows? And my result is dependent on how Hellboy fares. Gonna be very tight and pretty much to the wire.

After's looking DOA. Tracking is low and there's been no marketing (no surprise, seeing how Aviron's had little promotional muscle lately).

La Llorona's reviews aren't good but it should play well in New York and Los Angeles. I'd put Ghosty at the high end of that estimate.

If it makes you feel better, I have you 3rd in my current projections (by a hair)

It does make me feel better. And I'm confident La Llorona will be solid, and Hellboy won't

Ok, After isn't doing very good, but still a bit better than expected. And with Boosch being stuck and Six' Hellboy quite low, La Llorona has a good shot at pushing me to the podium. We probably won't know until the very last actual numbers, but I like my chances.
