Ok, time for us to do the vote thing.

The poll will close in exactly 3 weeks, on Monday October 29. Any film that opens in Nov-Dec-Jan-Feb is eligible in our contest. We are measuring US domestic boxoffice take and the contest will end as soon as it is clear that we know the top 5 films of the winter season. It is likely we will know by the middle of March, perhaps sooner.

VOTE FOR 5 FILMS, NO MORE, NO LESS. FAILING TO VOTE FOR 5 FILMS WILL BRING GREAT SCORN DOWN UPON YOU.

Here are the contenders:

Bohemian Rhapsody (Nov 2)
The Grinch (Nov 9)
Fantastic Beasts 2 (Nov 16)
Ralph Breaks the Internet (Nov 21)
Into the Spiderverse (Dec 14)
Mary Poppins Returns (Dec 19)
Aquaman (Dec 21)
Bumblebee (Dec 21)
Glass (Jan 18)
LegoMovie 2 (Feb 8)
How To Train Your Dragon 3 (Feb 22)

You will note that our end of February cut off date precludes you from taking Captain Marvel, which opens March 8th and is likely to make more than any of these films. Sorry.

If you don't like any of the choices mentioned in the poll, there is an option to vote for "field" which is any film not named in the poll. I left some pretty decent contenders in the "field" including:
Nutcracker and the Four Realms (Nov 2) , Creed 2 (Nov 21), Mortal Engines (Dec 14), Welcome to Marwen (Dec 21), Holmes and Watson (Dec 21), and Vice (Dec 25).

As always, feel free to post your picks and your rationale. There are a lot of strong contenders here and I bet we have more diversity of picks than usual. There may be no more than a couple films that get more than 75% of the vote. Should be fun!
