You guys really came to play in the last round of the Weekend Box Office Prophet game. Nine players missed the combined predictions of five films by less than $10 million (view the leaderboard). Good job! Though the Prophet won the round 3-1-1 (view the results) versus the players, we’re still going to toss a DVD to laureyrob for coming out on top in such a hotly contested round.
Peeking down the rabbit hole this upcoming weekend sees Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland in 3D plow into theaters while Overture Films counter-programs with Antoine Fuqua’s tension filled Brooklyn’s Finest. The top finisher is obvious, but how much dough will Johnny Depp and co. rake in?
The object of this game is to guess the final domestic box office dollars in millions for these five films from Friday, March 5 through Sunday, March 7. Your prediction is averaged in with the other players for a cumulative score to compete against the Prophet predictions.
Should the average player differences between the actual box office gross and predicted grosses beat the Prophet for 3 or more of the 5 films, the top player will win SIX prizes for an instant Blu-ray collection:
- Mystic River on Blu-ray Disc
- Walk the Line on Blu-ray Disc
- Halo Legends on Blu-ray Disc
- Universal Soldier Regeneration on DVD
- The Running Man on Blu-ray Disc
- NEW THIS WEEK: Gentlemen Broncos on Blu-ray Disc
If the Prophet wins then all six prizes will rollover into the next round and be joined by a sixth. Should 65 or more players participate and the Prophet wins, the top finisher will receive a separate prize while the other prizes will roll into next week. Be sure to get out on the social web and help get some new people playing.
Once you are logged in, the average player scores will update in real time below as new predictions are entered. The entry period will close the evening of Thursday, March 4, with this round’s results being published in the next round’s game page on Tuesday.
