Movie Moan - The Winter 2012 Box Office Results Show
Tue, February 5, 2013
It's time for Jamie, Phil and special guest Shawn Robbins from BoxOffice.com to do battle once more as they see how well they did in predicting the US box office grosses for the movies of Winter 2012.
It's not about whether Phil won, it's about whether he got any right.
The second, and far more important, question is how did you at home do? We'll be picking a 'web winner' for the closest prediction from those who contributed their own last October.
And if you want to skip ahead to a specific film (probably cause you thought you won that one), here are the cliff notes:
4:55 mins - Wreck It Ralph
12:10 mins - Flight
18:20 mins - Skyfall
27:30 mins - Lincoln
32 mins - The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II
39:30 mins - Rise Of The Guardians
45:40 mins - Life Of Pi
49:30 mins - Red Dawn
51:35 mins - The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
65:35 mins - Monsters Inc. 3D
70:40 mins - Zero Dark Thirty
76:10 mins - Jack Reacher
82:10 mins - This Is 40
88 mins - Django Unchained
96:25 mins - Les Miserables

As you can see I was MIA for the winter box office predictions. I will only stick to summer box office predictions. Winter box office is just to hard to figure out.
As for the Summer box office show Man of Steel SHOULD be included. Please! I want to win this year!
Woo hoo! I tied Phil and Jamie! Not bad for my first time!
Looking forward to the summer show! I'm already calling $400 million for THE LONE RANGER! In Japanese yen.
Call me fucking crazy for The Hobbit - I loved the 48 frame version.
I didn't approach it as a movie but a new viewing experience and it was like watching a live play coupled with movie effects.
Loved it!
BTW Phil you're singing was really good this time.
You didn't announce the web winner so by my calculations, congrats to The Mati who I think got the most points. But congrats to Ratty as well for being close behind AND for calling The Hobbit.
Phil (I agree your voice sounded good), I have an idea for a predictions show in case you want to do more of these aside from just box office - would you all do an Oscars predictions show/contest? Just the major categories (actor, actress, film, director, etc.) guessing who will win and then do a wrap-up for that, or would it be too boring?
Don't have a lot to say, but it's nice to see that people are flocking to quality films like Skyfall, Life of Pi and Django Unchained
Phil... YOU HAVE TO SEE Life of Pi at the cinema! A future classic with the best 3D since Avatar!
You may even forgive Ang Lee for Hulk, afterwards ;-)
