    Yep, I was planning on Baywatch or Apes if those animated movies got picked.

    Though I didn't realize Apes did so much... Doh.

    Alright, I drafted this last time, only for it to get bumped. So let's see how it fares this time around...

    LOL. I thought about snagging Pirates 5: Johnny Depp Pays Off His Mortgage, but Cars 3 is more likely to cap in my opinion.

    Also, as someone who grew up with the books, I'm excited for Captain Underpants.

    Not fully confident that original film Nolan will clear 200 million, but this seems like the kind of thing my dad would go see, so...

    I know I should probably go for Transformers 5, but I don't want to be copying Spinal's picks....

    Yeah, I wasn't even aware this was still a thing, but I grew up on them too, so I'm certainly interested to see what they've got with this film all these years later.

    Taking a chance going with an R-rated movie in the 3rd round. I dont trust Smurfs 3 since the second movie only did $70 mil domestic. And I dont trust Tom Cruise (even though I'm dying to see him in the Mummy) and I dont trust a remake of a TV Show. Prometheus earned $120 domestic. I'd be happy with that in round 3.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?
