What evidence are you talking about? Of course people care about the character Harry Potter.

Well, I think Moana will make over $300m dom, given past performers like Frozen, Zootopia and Finding Dory. I think that Fantastic Beasts, being a Harry Potter movie without Harry Potter, will do less than that.

Fantastic Beasts is going to have to sell a whole lot more than a million tickets to pass Moana.

And cinema release. Daisy Ridley ftw!

Hoot isn't an animated movie lol. Threw me a curveball there.

WDAS is huge right now. A Harry Potter spinoff is kind of a wild card.

That's downright popular, I'd say.

It's sarcastic. There are so many predictions over $300m that people would have fits if it only did $250m dom.

Lego Batman will flop with $250m dom.

That's an underperformance for Passengers? Lol. $200m dom is good news for it, period.

As I've noted before, they seem optimized for Cinemascope movies. Maybe if it also has that new Laser projecter, I'll bite.

Found another Liemax picture: https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/penn-cinema-riverfront-imax-wilmington?select=7xL8XH7zCfKbd_sSvcCEGA I mean, it looks nice.

Don't know why you're saying Crash was an October release. It premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2004, but it didn't get an Oscar qualifying run until May 2005.

There's a little uncertainty in the adapted category.

I'm legitimately surprised that The Sword in the Stone showed up on the list.

Beauty and the Beast will only make $300m dom.

At least our like counters will reset then...

The novelization probably has the entire plot in it. Are you predicting that Finding Dory will win the Oscar? Because that's not the most common choice.

Now that's just sour grapes.

I don't think people fully appreciate how huge TFA was.

You can't rely on imdb for that info. If they haven't started animation by this point, it's not coming out in June.

I was thinking Spirited Away.

Anyone want to guess what #1 will be? We won't know for sure until the end of the countdown.
