The final totals for the weekend were:
Despicable Me 2 $44.8M
Grown Ups 2 $42.5M
Pacific Rim $38.3M
Now it's time to demonstrate the new scoring system.
Here were my picks:
- Despicable Me 2 $60M
- Pacific Rim $50M
- Grown Ups 2 $45M
My older brother Chris played for the first time this week:
DM2 at 50
Pacific Rim at 38
stupid sandler and co at 28
His picks were the same as mine so he also gets 400 points.
David Walston picked:
Pacific Rim- $50M
Despicable Me 2- $45M
Grown Ups 2- $30M
He gets 100 for each for 300 total.
Rusty Webb picked:
Pacific Rim $48M
Despicable Me 2 $43M
Grown Ups 2 $32M
Also 100 for each or 300 total.
Andrew Leon picked:
1. Despicable Me 2: $46m
2. Pacific Rim: $44m
3. Grown Ups 2: $38m
His were the same as mine for 400 total.
Briane Pagel picked:
. Pacific Rim $60 m
2. Grown Ups 2 $40
3. Despicable Me 2 $35 mil.
He gets 300 for having all three plus he gets the 200 bonus for picking the correct #2 movie. That's 500 points total. And so even though he had the #1 and #3 movies mixed up, Briane Pagel gets the win and 300 bonus points! I guess anything can happen with the new scoring system, eh?
Michael Offutt made picks but they were after the deadline so they are disqualified.
Here's the updated scoreboard for week 1 of Season 2:

I can not believe Grown Ups 2 beat PacRim. I can't even believe it's a movie, but the fact that it did as well as it did is even worse.
Bah!
I won?
This is what it feels like...
...when doves cry.
You'll no doubt be ashamed of me if I admit we saw "Despicable Me II" and really enjoyed it.
Yeah I got distracted by Pacific Rim stuff so forgot to post. I'm disappointed too. But I'll be back next week.
That is what I get for being hyped up on Kaiju. Now I have to wait for Godzilla!!
I remember reading something about how the early projections put Grown Ups 2 ahead of Pacific Rim. Sort of surprising, but not really. Kids movies always do well, as there's not a lot of of options for kids' movies in theaters these days.
