My Two Cents,
I like the link to world affairs in trying to predict affects on everyday activities. This is a good prop from that perspective and there are good objective criteria to measure this.

Off Topic:
Please note that you have not lived up to your end of the deal when you burst on the scene with much promise. After a few months being involved, you have slipped off the radar like all of your predecessors. The only thing that you have maintained has been this prop review forum but the rest of the site (especially the league fiasco) has gone by the wayside despite repeated pleas to provide updates, resolve payout disputes, halt and payout props on-time, etc...

I apologize for hijacking this thread, but is is the only forum that you seem to check and update regularly.

Domestic gross, or worldwide gross?
According to boxofficemojo, it's at $80M domestic / $150M worldwide already. Worldwide could reach 200 by Wed.
So i assume you mean Domestic gross.

HSX (Hollywood Stock eXchange) pegs last weekend domestic gross at $87M. So by their formula (x2.7), it could gross $235M in 4 weeks (about June 1). (but they've been wrong before)(HSX only follows domestic gross)
The current price of Wolverine stock is H$220, which means the traders currently expect it to gross $220M in the same 4 weeks. (but they've been wrong before)

I'm going long on this one. (but I've been wrong before)

While I like x-men, don't see what they or movies have to do with science?

When life gives you to many Apple IPO's make Apple sauce, now where did I put that blender?

@CplLenny- Wolverine was given his adamantium skeleton by scientists. Thus, it's science related. Also, @sir-reptitious, we're talking domestic gross here.

Current price at HSX H$206. And dropping.

Whatever happened to this one? It doesn't appear to have gone "live" and there has been no further discussion?

If movie stocks intrest you, check out HSX.
