Predictions...

I just miss MrShowbiz. Around this time of year, the website mrshowbiz.com (which is no more) used to run a box office derby game to beat the friggin' band. I played, and frequently did quite well in a game where opening weekends were guessed, movies were bought, sold and traded, and hundreds of people tried in vain to separate the wheat from the chaff. In honor of all that, here are my picks for the top ten movies of the summer. Summer is all movies released between Episode 3 and the last weekend before Labour Day.

1) Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith
2) Batman Begins
3) Madagascar
4) Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
5) The Fantastic Four
6) War of the Worlds
7) The Dukes of Hazzard
8) The Wedding Crashers
9) Bewitched
10) Mr and Mrs Smith.

Notable also rans: The Longest Yard, Herbie Returns, The Island, Cinderella Man, Stealth, The Pink Panther, The 40 Year Old Virgin. These will all do well, but not quite well enough.

I'll recap and let you know how I did at summer's end. Also, if you disagree, email your own list and I'll put it up here as well.
