Oh it was a piss-easy win for the Jennifer Aniston/Vince Vaughn flick but they took a fair while to grade it as they've usually settle bets on Monday night/Tuesday morning but I had to wait until Wedneday 7th.

Record so far:
BET 1: £20 loss (-£20)
BET 2: £38.46 profit (+£18.46)
BET 3: £16.64 profit (+£35.10)
I missed having a go at last week's box office because it seemed a bit difficult but
Cars (the new flick from Pixar) underperformed and went under the suggested total of $74 million ('over $74m' and 'under $74m' were both (-115) shots).
Odds have been out since Wednesday in a mediocre week of new offerings:
The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift (the second sequel with nobody from the first two films in it),
Garfield 2 (nobody asked for another),
The Lake House (soppy Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock film) and
Nacho Libre (Jack Black as a cook who masquerades as a Mexican wrestler).
The focus of this week's bet will be again over at
The Greek and it's
The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift:
Over $24 million (+140), Under $24 million (-170)
I think
Cars and
Nacho Libre could take away most of it's intended juvenile audience. £40 to win £23.53 on 'under $24 million'.
