Que Pasa Mufasa (insert hyena laugh here). Well that was quick, the 1st weekend that is. Well wasn't as quick, prob the same time as every other weekend. Well just as almost everybody suspected the price of Iron rose. By rise I mean money and with the 2nd highest opening every (only behind the big brother Los Avengadores) Iron-Man 3 ran supreme. With a whopping 175 million (estimated until Monday mid day) buckaroos in the bank.  Just with first domestic weekend alone it almost recouped its budget of a hefty 200mil. If you include what it has already done overseas we are talking about adding 504 mil bringing the total internationally to 680mil. Yeah you read that right. Even with black or white reviews you can better believe that Iron-Mans adventures will continue even if the Invincible Robert Downing Jr isn't on board. We can almost bet we'll see him again in Avengers 2, but in what capacity, will it be Iron-Man. Let you ponder that. 
Okay 1st contest seemed like a success to me. So with the final actual numbers not reporting in until Monday, it looks like 175 (usually +-5 mill) will be the winning numbers. If stands still, it looking like last years co-Champion La Rosey has taken this first round of SAMg sub-contest. Of course officially I'll say tomorrow because the number can fluctuate. Next contest will prob Fast & Furious 6 vs Hangover III. 

Here are the Top 3 Opening Weekends (Fri-Sun) that each player choose. Seems like almost everybody picked Iron-Man 3 as the top notch flick with a mix of Man of Steel & Monsters U hitting the 1 & 2 spots on various list.
