61. The last few weeks will weigh heavily on the minds of execs going into the first part of this year: 1. the success of franchises like Twilight, MI, Sherlock Holmes, Chipmunks. 2. the less-successful box office of adaptations based on lesser-known material, especially 'prestige' adaptations: Dragon Tattoo, War Horse, Tintin, Hugo, We Own a Zoo. 3. the deafening thuds of non-franchise releases like: Tower Heist, The Sitter, Arthur Christmas, In Time. Add those together and you're going to get a very conservative year in Hollywood development. "Prestige" is going to take a big hit, since Spielberg just laid two financial eggs in a two-week span.

@LALetts weighs in from Twitter with 77.

I'll go with 106

124. That puts me on the 'highly optimistic' end of the spectrum, but I figure that with a lot of high-profile franchises (Batman, Harry Potter, Twilight) coming to definitive ends, studios will look to the spec market as the least-risky starting point for potential new cash cows.

Let's go with 92. No reasoning behind the number other than it was a great year. Oh, and for the record... One one of the 92... will be MINE!!!

I'll take the 101 - because it took me a the "longest Route" to get into screenwriting.

I was so attached to ninety-two... I'll take 91 then!

Mr. Hogan would protest! 74 guessed @LALetts.

IŽll go for 88. Not because of Eric Lindros but because thereŽs magic in the number. Right, very sound reasoning, yep.

I had 91 in the comments in the previous post, wasn't updated here.

I will update the list and post it on Sunday, January 1.

I'll try 116.

Okay... I'm in for 114.

118, and one of them will be mine.

87!

94. Thanks for the contest and this blog in general.

Wasn't sure which post so I'll take 80 please.
