March Box Office Challenge Results

The Popcorn Guide absolutely destroyed Dave's Movie Reviews in the March Box Office Challenge. Dave's Movie Reviews had first pick for the month, but made a huge blunder by picking Greenzone instead of Alice in Wonderland. The Popcorn Guide picked the top 6 movies of the month. Domination of this magnitude is very unlikely in future months. I expect April to be much closer. Below is a breakdown of the results.

March Draft
1. Green Zone (DMR)
2. Alice in Wonderland (PG)
3. How to Train Your Dragon (PG)
4. Repo Men (DMR)
5. She's Out of My League (DMR)
6. The Bounty Hunter (PG)
7. Shutter Island (PG)
8. Brooklyn's Finest (DMR)
9. Our Family Wedding (DMR)
10. Remember Me (PG)
11. Diary of a Whimpy Kid (PG)
12. The Runaways (DMR)
13. Hot Tub Time Machine (DMR)
14. Cop Out (PG)
15. Avatar (PG)
16. Greenberg (DMR)
