[I only know one truth: It's time for the Derby... to end | Week 48]

Thought I won again. It's a fine line between arrogance and confidence. 

[Great-great-grandfather, none of them understand me. I’m supposed to play Derby! | Week 47]

Oh wow, thought I had won this weekend.  

[BEEP BEEP Richie! They ALL Derby down here. When you're down here with us, you'll Derby too! | Week 36]

congrats, @Rolling Thunder, long time coming for you, eh?

Thanks. Sure has, nearly four months. 😓

[Oh I was just um... Looking at... Derby | Week 28]

What went wrong with The Big Sick? 

[Oh I was just um... Looking at... Derby | Week 28]

Wasn't expecting Bates to beat me. 

[Face it, Gru. Derby is in your blood! | Week 27]

I may be struggling but the fans keep showing up. That's what matters. 

[These are troubled times. Without leaders, Derby reigns | Week 25]

87% only good for 10th.  Brutal. 

[The racing is the reward, not the Derby! | Week 24]

Plus the usual crapshoot of whether or not Pirates and/or Guardians benefits from Disney double features.

[The racing is the reward, not the Derby! | Week 24]

Rally caps in-hand, a thunderous crowd rises to its feet chanting "RT!...RT!" Music blares and the noise meter blows past 10.  It's time for a comeback.

Cause he's first or second every week lately. Impressive 

Envious? Shall we talk about our 20 something placings. We get a ribbon for that these days don't we? 

 

As I've mentioned more than once, Matrix is a serviceable player.  Why would I be envious?  Just because he's been on more of a hot streak doesn't discount my skill and ability.  It's not like I've never won before.

@Matrix4You pulling away in the all time standings.

 

 

Why does everyone have to point this out every week? 

[The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo]

Final in-house tracking for The Mummy was $28m.  Bombs away, at least domestically.

Thank you Rolling Thunder.  I am not sure I would  be the right person for that though.  I am more of a quiet thinker.  The mind to mouth thing is not my talent (especially since I have been clean for years)

 

I'm sure you're just being modest but I completely understand all the same. ☺️

[I have no father. I was brought to life by Derby. | Week 22]

Matrix is a serviceable player. I'd certainly consider bringing him aboard my podcast analysis team. 

[I have no father. I was brought to life by Derby. | Week 22]

A bit surprised to see @Matrix4Youchallenging for first. 

[I have no father. I was brought to life by Derby. | Week 22]

That's awesome, @AndyLL!  Best one yet! 

[I don't use my head to fly the arrow boy, I use my Derby | Week 21]

Wow, @T-700defeated me.

[I don't use my head to fly the arrow boy, I use my Derby | Week 21]

I might be eliminated by @T-700??? 

[Thursday Numbers: 4.5 M BAYWATCH]

90-100%

 

Comps are sparse, so certainly possible, and you can't count out The Rock.  Still betting there won't be a w/e recovery.

No it wont go that low. Still a horrible number.

 

It could.  I can see only a 30-35% increase today and I doubt it has a great weekend IM.  What kind of Friday increase do you expect?

[Thursday Numbers: 4.5 M BAYWATCH]

Terrible number.  In serious jeopardy of missing $20m for the 3-day.

Megan Leavey  - free screenings where you have to get your tickets through MT...
 

 

Ah, was wondering why it was dominating MT. 

[Weekend Actuals: 36.2 M ALIEN: COVENANT | 34.7 M GOTG II | 11.7 M EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING]

Wimpy is aptly named for local matinees here, though school is still in session (as it is for 97% of the country).

 

Everything, Everything has already sold out an evening show here with another looking to follow before long.

So I'm up against you in the tournament, guess I'm partially out 

 

Haha, not in the least.  Our predictions are incredibly close - we even predicted the exact same thing for GOTG2!  We have a $1m difference for King Arthur which could kill me.  I almost went with a 60% drop for it but changed my mind.

Crap, I hope Boss Baby is not getting a double feature boost this weekend.  Ahhhh!!!!!

 

Hmm, didn't consider that, either.  Wimpy Kid may not be big enough to get people out for a BB feature, though, especially since so many have already seen the latter.  Plus, BB surprisingly lost 30% of its theaters this weekend.
