The 2017 Movie Parliament Summer Movie Wager 

Inspired by Slash Film's annual competition, this summer Movie Parliament will be contesting its own, 'Summer Movie Wager' 
The aim of the game? To predict the top 10 highest grossing films of the summer at the U.S. box office. The timescale spans from the first weekend of May to the last weekend of August, with all box office figures coming from BoxOfficeMojo.
Watch this space over the summer months, as we'll update the page with each weekend's box office figures.
