Recently I've started reading the site Box Office Prophets. It's not that I really care how much movies are going to gross (though I am interested in that), but where else can you get great lines like this: "I’m more than willing to suspend disbelief, but I am not willing to suspend you taking my common sense for a long ride, walking it to a secluded spot in the woods and going all Miller’s Crossing on its ass."

Heh. Read them. Laugh. Skip the number charts if you feel so inclined.

Eric Richardson lives in Atlanta, Georgia, where he works on payments infrastructure for Cash App.

Past lives involved streaming audio for Southern California Public Radio, running a hyperlocal news site for Downtown Los Angeles, working on custom mapping code, and writing Perl at the Jet Propulsion Labratory.
