Polymarket realizes that The Last House will likely win the week, despite not being No. 1 this weekend. The reasoning? The movie has been available/charting high for the full accounting period, unlike The Dating App Killer.
The terms of the market specify the result will be based on when Netflix updates “its Top 10 Movies list on top10.netflix.com on Tuesday, Aug. 18, 2026, 3:00 PM ET, reflecting viewership from the previous week (Monday to Sunday).”
