EDIT 3: Results!

So, this weekend was a double edged sword. On the one hand, nobody saw the crappy movies! Yay! On the other, not a single one of us were close with our predictions as a result. As such, you'll notice that the major winner of the weekend only won by virtue of her predictions being the lowest. Anyways, I'm getting ahead of myself. Here are the results for Week 4! Don't forget, it's one point for being closest and two points for being dead on.

FilmGrossUser(s) Who Was/Were ClosestDifference
Rock Of Ages$15.05 millionstaceywi ($19.1 million)$4.04 million over (1 point)
That's My Boy$13 millionstaceywi ($16.5 million)$3.5 million over (1 point)
The Woman In The Fifth$37,000RockinKemosabe ($35,000)$2,000 under (1 point)
Your Sister's Sister$117,000OrigamiAngel ($120,000)$3,000 over (1 point)
Total Gross For The Weekend$28.214 millionstaceywi ($35.73 million)$7.516 million over (1 point)

So, yeah, congrats to for picking the lowest and stuff. I'd be more proud and congratulatory but you did only win on a technicality so it hardly counts. Much. (bitter troll face) Also, a hell of a lot of my pride is directed towards the American public for skipping these movies. Seriously, you do not know how happy it makes me to see a horrid Adam Sandler movie finally flop!

Anyways, let's see what this has done to the scoreboard as we pass a third of the way!

And that's the end of Week 4! We have a new contender to stick the landing? Can users like and finally get on the scoreboard? Can resist the urge to murder for, essentially, one-dollar-ing his ass? All of these answers and more will be revealed in Week 5 when we deal with the releases of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (squee!) and Brave (but not in the UK, which is why I'm not squee-ing)! Until then, comment on the results, chat amongst yourselves and have a good old time!

See you back here on Wednesday for Week 5!

And now, my predictions!

FilmPrediction
Rock Of Ages$28 million
That's My Boy$30 million
The Woman In The Fifth$40,000
Your Sister's Sister$100,000
Total$58.14 million

Musicals do well, but never too well on opening weekend, hence my conservative estimate on Rock Of Ages. That'll have some legs, but it won't do that well on opening weekend. Adam Sandler movies make a crap tonne of money, unfortunately, and I think that this is going to make a fair bit of money. I completely expect Madagascar 3 to stay at number 1, but I think this'll take number two and it will almost definitely beat Prometheus. As for the indies, I took a pair of completely random guesses based on their screen counts. I'm almost certain that I'm wrong on the pair of them.

Also, I'm very disappointed at this week's movie releases. Isn't it summer? Where are my huge releases?

As per usual, today is your last chance to get your predictions in! Predictions made after tonight at Midnight WILL NOT be counted!

Don't be too worried, just yet. The only other person who's close to you is and he hasn't voted yet! The only other way anyone would get close would be to have one person win all of the predictions, and that's rather unlikely, in my opinion. I think you may have a staying of execution, for now.

Next week sees the release of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (which I am totally off to see and none of you lot can stop me) and Brave. So the big films are coming, this is just sort of a week off.
