pretty nifty :: The Box Office Oracle- you choose the director, writers, stars, and budget, and it predicts how much you’d make, and whether or not they’ll be any Oscar nods. I guess my dream movie won’t be in production any time soon. The Hall of Fame section is hilarious, especially the (mis)adventures of the Mystical Martial Arts Master.
