 Ok… so I got my ass handed to me this week at the box office. I couldn’t have been more wrong with just about every prediction.
My only excuse is that I was in a hospital bed (cue the little violins), hooked up to an IV and on Morphine. I’m not going to go into too many details this week as I am still not feeling too well, but if you are looking for a good laugh, check out this week’s box office chart and see how my predictions fared.
