I would love to finish this league, but for some reason i cannot access FM. Can someone post my slate please?

I am in, and my slate is doing not too shabby (or not too good as the case may be).

Frost/Nixon 873 K 7 PTA 0 Top 5 8.1 imdb (updated)
Crossing Over (which needs to be exchanged for $ 13 bucks)

I updated Barca's number for Frost/Nixon and Australia since I have them already but I did not update any of the movie that are not current any longer. Imdb and BO may be off slightly for the rest of our slates.

Although I am kind of fucked. Even if I change Hurricane Season, the only movies in the money limit that keep me legal are slate killers. Marley and Me or Bedtime Stories. Yuck!

Can we still change slates as normal? If so I would like to drop Hurricane $9 and Revolutionary Road $13 and take Ben Button $20 and Valkyrie $2.

Thanks Donte.. In that case, i'll drop Crossing Over and take Revolutionary Road.

yea, no problem. those are still in play.
