Box Office Blitz Week 4 Results!

I didn't help my own cause this weekend by spending $7.50 to see "2 Guns."  I would have seen "The Wolverine" but it wasn't starting for 45 minutes and 2 Guns was starting right then and since I really didn't give a shit about either, I just went to see 2 Guns.  It was an OK buddy action movie, but as I tweeted, it's the kind of movie where you won't miss anything if you wait to see it on DVD.  And BTW, there are a lot more than 2 guns in the movie.  Liars!

Anyway, the top movies this week:
  1. 2 Guns $27.4M
  2. The Wolverine $21.7M
  3. Smurfs 2 $18.2M
Another down week for me as I picked:
  1. Smurfs 2 $50M
  2. The Wolverine $30M
  3. 2 Guns $25M
Guess I grossly estimated the kiddies this week.  Anyway, I get 100 for Smurfs, 100 for Wolverine plus a 200 point bonus for placing it #2, and then 100 for 2 Guns.  That's 500 total.

Christopher Dilloway picked:
2 guns $35
Smurfs 2 $30
Wolverine $25

That's 100 for 2 Guns plus a 100 point bonus and 100 each for Smurfs and Wolvie for 400 total.

Rusty picked:
2 Guns $34 mil
Smurfs 2 $25 mil
Wolverine $20 mil

Also 400 points

Michael Offutt picked:
1) 2 Guns at $34 million
2) Smurfs 2 at $27 million
3) The Wolverine $24 million

Also 400 points

Maurice Mitchell picked:
1. 2 Guns - $33
2. The Smurfs 2 - $24
3. The Wolverine - $20

Also 400 points

Andrew Leon picked:
1. 2 Guns: $32m
2. Smurfs 2: $25m
3. Wolverine: $21m

Also 400...this is why you don't all pick the same thing!

David Walston picked:
1. 2 Guns $32M
2. The Wolverine $27M
3. The Smurfs 2 $23M

That's a trifecta! 900 points

But the winner is Briane Pagel again with:
1. 2 Guns $30 mil.
2. The Wolverine $25 mil
3. Smurfs 2, $20 mil.

That's a trifecta and since he picked 2 Guns closer than David he wins the extra 300 points for 1200 total.

The updated scoreboard:
