Are you adjusting your Starbonds on Sunday after the weekend's wide release adjust for those associated Starbonds?

There can be a significant change to the Starbond if the movie over or underperforms, and you may want to reverse position after opening weekend, or even just dump it if the Starbond ends up being right around the point it will end up cashing out at in another 4 weeks time.

And I'm assuming you already know this, but just in case... keep in mind that a Starbond's max for any one film is $250.  For instance, Jennifer Lawrence's film 5 films ago (the one dropping off her list to be replaced by the most recent Hunger Games movie) was Hunger Games: Catching Fire, which did $357 million.  Even for those who predicted the latest film would underperform, we all likely knew it would do at least $250.  Which means there was never going to be any movement on that stock with a $250+ movie replacing another $250+ movie.
