I was just thinking (it's something I occasionally like to try); we're now 42 films into the list and we've still not had a single entry from the Star Trek, Star Wars, Alien, Mad Max, Terminator or Planet of the Apes franchises. In fact the only big sci-fi franchise that's been represented I think has been Back to the Future. I'm guessing that means that none of the lesser entries of those franchises are going to make it. Had something like a Phantom Menace, Terminator 3 or Alien 3 been going to sneak in I think it would have been in the very early spots.
Also how are people's predictions holding up in terms of how many of their films would make it? A week or two back I thought there was one film that no chance and another 3 or 4 I was unsure of. However given some of the big, popular films that have now shown up (Guardians of the Galaxy, District 9, Men in Black, The Martian etc) I'm becoming less optimistic. I now think there are at least 3 films, possibly 4, that definitely won't feature
Anyway for our next two films I'm going to guess at Independence Day and Dark City.

If Prometheus and Thunderdome don't show up in the next 10 slots I think they are out. I also wouldn't be shocked if Star Trek and Planet of the Apes only registered one franchise entry
