I detta avsnitt samlas Filmsmakarna för årets mest prestigefyllda och kaotiska tradition: Summer Movie Wager 2026. Med reglerna för tävlingen i ryggen – där man försöker förutspå vilka filmer som blir sommarens största kassasuccéer i rätt ordning – kastar sig panelen in i en intensiv genomgång av sommarens premiärer, franchisejättar, oväntade utmanare och våra egna tveksamma magkänslor. Detta är även en ursäkt för att prata om sommarens kommande filmer och vad vi tror om dessa. Varje medlem presenterar sin lista över vilka filmer som kommer dominera den amerikanska biotoppen mellan 30 april och Labor Day 2026, samma period som används i den officiella tävlingen. Diskussionerna blir snabbt heta när gänget bland annat försöker avgöra: Toy Story 5 – Är Pixars flaggskepp fortfarande en garanterad miljarddragare? Spider-Man: Brand New Day – Kan Spindelmannen återta tronen efter några år av superhjältetrötthet? The Odyssey – Ett oväntat wildcard som vissa tror kan bli sommarens stora snackis. Mortal Kombat II - Flawless victory eller fatality? Det enda vi vet är att Karl Urban sätter våra filmhjärtan i brand. Minions & Monsters – Illumination fortsätter sin dominans – men hur högt kan de nå? Moana 2 – Disney återvänder med en film där The Rock har hår på huvudet igen. The Mandalorian and Grogu – Star Wars på bioduken igen – men har publiken fortfarande samma hunger? Hiss eller piss? Supergirl – DC:s framtid är osäker, men kan just denna film överraska? Disclosure Day – En ny sci-fi‑titel från herr Steven Spielberg som väcker både nyfikenhet och skepsis. Scary Movie – Humorens comeback? Vissa tror på en sleeper hit. Panelen väljer också tre filmer som kan smyga sig in på topp‑10, även om oddsen är låga. Dessa diskuteras som potentiella överraskningar – antingen kultsuccéer eller totala magplask. Mycket nöje!

It's time once again for the annual Summer Movie Wager! Our friends Peter Sciretta, BJ Colangelo, and Germain Lussier return to the show to stake their claims along with the Filmcast crew, on this summer's box office. Come back at summer's end to find out who will take the prize as the winner of the 2026 wager. You can play along at thesummermoviewager.com. To be considered for the leaderboard, you must enter by April 29, 2026We're making video versions of our reviews! Be sure to follow us on the following platforms: YouTube Tiktok Instagram Threads The Summer Movie Wager is a game that we play during the summer of each year. You can find the history of the game and play along at thesummermoviewager.com (thanks to Dennis for putting that site together). The general goal of this game is to predict the highest grossing films of the summer in terms of domestic box office, in the correct order. The closer you get to the final ranked order, the more points you get. This year, the summer movie wager will begin on April 30, 2026 (with the release of The Devil Wears Prada 2) and last through September 7, 2026, Labor Day, as usual. Each of your 13 picks (10 movies and 3 dark horses) gets a single score assigned to it by using the following rules: -If your picked movie for #1 OR #10 is correct, you score 13 points for it. -If your picked movie for 2-9 is correct, you score 10 points for it. -If your picked movie is only 1 spot away from its actual placement, you score 7 points for it. -If your picked movie is only 2 spots away from its actual placement, you score 5 points for it. -If your picked movie is placed inside the Top 10, you score 3 points for it. -If your picked movie is not placed inside the Top 10, you score 0 points for it. -For each of your picked dark horses placed inside the Top 10, you score 1 point. If two or more rules apply to a single pick, only that single rule will be applied which assigns the highest point value to that pick. For example: If your pick for #1 is correct, you don't get 16 points for it because it is #1 and because it placed inside the Top 10; instead you only get 13 points for it.Germain's Top 101.

We're back like clockwork for another Summer Movie Wager in which we try to come up with the correct order for the biggest movies this summer, whilst getting suitably hyped for actually watching them.

It's that time of year again when we try to predict which movies will rule the summer. Can Disney work their live action magic once again with Lilo & Stitch or will it be the turn of Dreamworks to capitalise on the same kind of phenomenon with How to Train your Dragon?Meanwhile, it's a two horse race for Marvel after last year's strike-felled showing, and that's without even mentioning Captain America: Brave New World, which we check in with, amongst a bunch of other moves to grace our eyeballs so far in 2025.We were gonna get into TV as well (since face it, that really has been where it's at so far this year), but we had to pause our witterings to deal with a cat-based emergency, so that will have to wait for a bit.We'll definitely be back before our end-of-summer results show though.

You can find the history of the game and play along at thesummermoviewager.com. The goal is to predict the highest-grossing films of the summer in terms of domestic box office, in the correct order. The closer you get to the final ranked order, the more points you get. This year, the summer movie wager will begin on May 1, 2025, and last through September 1, 2025, Labor Day, as usual.Each of your 13 picks (10 movies and 3 dark horses) gets a single score assigned to it by using the following rules:-If your picked movie for #1 OR #10 is correct, you score 13 points for it.-If your picked movie for 2-9 is correct, you score 10 points for it.-If your picked movie is only 1 spot away from its actual placement, you score 7 points for it.-If your picked movie is only 2 spots away from its actual placement, you score 5 points for it.-If your picked movie is placed inside the Top 10, you score 3 points for it.-If your picked movie is not placed inside the Top 10, you score 0 points for it.-For each of your picked dark horses placed inside the Top 10, you score 1 point. If two or more rules apply to a single pick, only that single rule will be applied that assigns the highest point value to that pick. For example: If your pick for #1 is correct, you don't get 16 points for it because it is #1 and because it placed inside the Top 10; instead, you only get 13 points for it.

The summer movie season is finally over, and we had some big surprises across the board this year. So this week, the Cinemaholics crunch the numbers and analyze the highs and lows of the box office releases and how this year compares to the last few. Plus we get a chance to dig a little into a few releases we didn't review on the main show and re-litigate a few of the ones we did. In this episode we looked at a Forbes article by Conor Murray, as well as the Summer Movie Wager website used by the Filmcast. Also, our thumbnail artwork was designed by Jon Negroni and features edited stills from Deadpool and Wolverine, Bad Boys: Ride or Die, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, The Fall Guy, The Garfield Movie, IF, Despicable Me 4, Inside Out 2, Twisters, A Quiet Place: Day One, and Longlegs.

You can find the history and play along at http://www.thesummermoviewager.com (thanks to Dennis for maintaining the site!) The general goal of this game is to predict the highest grossing films of the summer in terms of domestic box office, in the correct order. The closer you get to the final ranked order, the more points you get. This year, the summer movie wager will begin on May 4 2023 (the release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3) and last through September 4, 2023, Labor Day, as usual. Each of your 13 picks (10 movies and 3 dark horses) gets a single score assigned to it by using the following rules: If your picked movie for #1 OR #10 is correct, you score 13 points for it. If your picked movie for 2-9 is correct, you score 10 points for it. If your picked movie is only 1 spot away from its actual placement, you score 7 points for it. If your picked movie is only 2 spots away from its actual placement, you score 5 points for it. If your picked movie is placed inside the Top 10, you score 3 points for it. If your picked movie is not placed inside the Top 10, you score 0 points for it. For each of your picked dark horses placed inside the Top 10, you score 1 point. -If two or more rules apply to a single pick, only that single rule will be applied which assigns the highest point value to that pick. For example: If your pick for #1 is correct, you don't get 16 points for it because it is #1 and because it placed inside the Top 10; instead you only get 13 points for it. Germain's top 10 1.
