2006 prediction Quiz

I am curious what all of you experts here at MOFO think about this summer movie season. I am making up a little prediction quiz and I am offering the winner three of my DVDs that I have duplicates of. I will lship them free to whatever address the winner sends me free of charge. The DVDs are:
The Life Aquati
Layer Cak
Capot

These are DVDs that I got as gifts that were duplicate. I know it is not like winning the lottery, but they are decent movies and hey they are free. This is just for fun and you can still play if you do not want them. Here are the rules: I will ask some movie related questions about the 2006 season. Some answers will be almost impossible to get exactly right, but the closest answer wins that question. Each question is worth a certain amount of points which will be listed by the question and there will be a bonus question worth 5 points. The person who gets the most points wins. All questions are related to movies being released theatrically in the U.S. between the dates of May 9th untill Aug 28th, 2006. All questions should be considered in the domestic market.
(edited, no answers were sent prior to the change from worldwide to domestic.
You may post your answers here, but if you are afraid of copycats you may also Pm them to me. Okay here we go, good luck to all who play

1. What movie will be the highest grossing film during this timeframe? (2 points

2. How much will the above film gross? (3 points

3. What will be the highest grossing "r" rated movie for this time frame? ( 2 points

4. List the top 5 grossing films. (2 points for each properly positioned film

5. Yes or no: will any film break the top ten all time list? (1 point

6. Which film will gross highest over budget? (most profitable) (3 points

7. List the total dollar amount of the top three grossing films. (3 points

8. Which film will flop the most, lowest profit vs budget (2 points

9. What will be the highest grossing film for the following months
Ma
Jun
Jul
Aug (2 points for each right answer

10. What film will have the biggest opening day total? (2 points

11. How much will the above film gross on opening day? (3 points

Bonus Question
List the top ten films of this time frame based on gross dollar amount along with what you think the total will be. You do not have to get them in the right order to win this question the closest overall player will get 5 bonus points

Hope you all decide to play, I have always had an intrest in the box office and thought it would be fun

Good Luck.
