2016 Summer Movie Challenge

Weather is turning warm, which means it's time for this years summer movie challenge.  Rules are the same as last year but here's a recap:

You pick what you think will be the top 10 domestic grossing movies of the summer from highest grossing to 10th highest grossing.  The trick is trying to correctly predict where every movie lands on the list.  3 dark horse picks are added for incentive points.  The domestic totals are tallied through and ends on Labor Day (September 5th).

RULES:

Getting number 1 and/or number 10 dead-on gets you 13 points each.

The rest of the scoring goes like this:
  • 10 points for numbers 2-9 dead-on
  • 7 points if your pick was only 1 spot away from where it ended up
  • 5 points if it was 2 spots away
  • 3 points if your pick is anywhere in the Top 10
  • 1 point for each dark horse that makes it into the Top 10
The scoring is tabulated so that you get the SINGLE HIGHEST point value for each pick.  For example, if you get number 1 or 10 right, you don't get 13 points for getting it dead on AND 3 points for it being in the top 10.  You only get 13 points.

The movies eligible for this challenge, in order of release, are the following:

  • Captain America: Civil War
