So what you will be doing is figuring out what 10 films will make the most money, and putting them in order of what you think they will gross at the box office.

For the last seven or so years, I have been using box office numbers from Yahoo Box Office which gets their numbers in turn from Box Office Mojo. Box Office numbers are generally available late Monday or Tuesday after the weekend closes. In other words films from March or April might still be making money after May 1st, but they don't count films released from May on could start racking up foreign B.O., but that doesn't count films released from May on could still be making money into September, but that doesn't count either. As I've said, that means only films released from May 1st 2012 to the Labor Day weekend, counting only the money those films make domestically (US and Canada) in that period. The rules for the game come from TimeTravelReview's Summer Movie Pool: The object is to pick the films that you think will be the top-ten grossing films of the summer, in order of box-office performance. After the jump you can listen to the full episode of the show with our predictions.

But it isn't just that easy - not only do the participants need to predict what 10 films will be the highest grossing films domestically, but we need to place them in order. It's a free-for-all the person with the best score wins. This year the contest includes David Chen (his first time) Germain Lussier (with a write-in ballot), Jeff Cannata and myself in a game is to decide what will be the highest grossing films of the Summer. This is the ninth annual edition of this contest. Every year in the past I would make a guest appearance on the Totally Rad Show for this segment, but with that show now disbanded we have taken on the job of hosting this contest on /Film. Jeff Cannata (formerly of the Totally Rad Show, now host of DLC, We Have Concerns and co-host of the /Filmcast) has thrown down the gauntlet, and once again challenged /Film to compete with him in what has become an annual tradition: the Summer Movie Wager.
