(WHo knew that BVS was actually the big success story of the year  )

[HeyItsMoses]

Zootopia passed the $1b mark by $19k...are you fuckin kidding me?

[Infernus]

Damn, I just realized. If these estimates hold I'll get 5 of those 6 placements rights! That will probably be my best yet in that department. 

Also 14 of the 18 answers.

If it makes you feel better you'll gain 15k if it's somehow in the Top 7

[Wrath]

Oh, Im totally confident. That it has at least a 1 in 10 chance of pulling that off.
