None of those posters are working for me. Anyone else see them?

Nope, they're all blank boxes for me too. They're probably IMDB links.

Damn. Sorry guys. Give me a bit and I will fix. Couldn't remember who I used to hot link last time.

Fixed. We will do this the old fashioned way. Sorry again.

Taken 3
Fifty Shades Of Grey
Cinderella
Insurgent
Paranormal Activity

Wow are we doing porn movies now?

They would probably do quite well.

I'm in again even though I am proving to be quite horrible at these challenges they are still a lot of fun.

Obviously I'm in. I'll get my choices done by the end of the week.

Bumpalicious

I'll be in again. Will try and come up with my picks later

Fifty Shades of Grey
Insurgent
Mortdecai
Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension
Cinderella

Teeter, you are one too many.

I think these are a bit tougher to predict than other rounds. I don't think there are as many sure fire box-office hits around this time of year.

So here's what I've decided to plump for -

Taken 3
50 Shades of Grey
Cinderella
Insurgent
Chappie

Was really undecided about my last pick. Was swaying between Chappie, SpongeBob Movie, Home and Kingsman

I will make my selections. But since this is the garbage dump season, I need to do some serious research.
