So I handily won the first ever CineGeek fantasy Film Ball game by strategic choices and brilliant deductive skills, well ok mostly just because I won Hunger Games in the bidding but Journey 2 and a few other money makers did seal the deal for the Winter/Spring block. Jonathan pulled an upset over Bill with his choice of Hunger Games as well in the listener bracket. The summer block won’t be so easily won though. There are several films that will make big bank this summer and many other that will make moderate money so the game will definitely be much more challenging.
Below shows all of the films that both the contributor and listener brackets will be bidding on for the summer black. The only difference is that the listener bracket will not get the last month of films because their games must end before ours so that we have a winner to participate with us in the fall game. The bidding is going to start out pretty insane since the first film up for grabs will be the hotly anticipated The Avengers. Check out the entire list of films we’ll be playing for below and make your own predictions. Then join us live Wednesday night at 6:30c on Ustream to see how the bidding goes. If you can’t join us live as always you can grab the webcast the next day on Stitcher Radio or on iTunes just by searching “CineGeek”.
