The rules are simple, the competition is fierce, and the wagers are lighthearted. Besides, who wants to spend the summer outdoors in the sun when you could be sitting in an air-conditioned theater watching some of the latest blockbusters?
Submissions are closed and the wagers for the participants have been posted below! See how you stack up against your competition.

OBSERVATIONS
- Ten of us have The Lion King as our #1 pick.
- J-Mart has Dora and the Lost City of Gold nowhere to be found.
- Brightburn is in a number of wagers.
- Godzilla, Aladdin, and Detective Pikachu are all over the place in terms of ranking. It looks like no one is quite sure how the summer box office could play out.
- Marmaduke Karlston and Kemosabe have the exact same Top 10 except their #8 and #9 are swapped. Furiosas are 67% the same too.
