Hey, I got much different answers when grading. Maybe I did it differently. Correct me if I am wrong. Here is a tad from the scoring.
SCORING
If your number 1 film does not make the top 15, score 1000 points per 2 million dollars the film grosses.
If your number 1 film finishes in the top 15 LOSE 600 points for every million more than the 16th placed film it makes
So if we are going by increments of 2 million, then that means Hitman's Bodyguard got 28 increments of 2 million by Labor Day Monday. It ended at $57,966,926 and since 58 is not a round number, you have to go by 28. With this information, then the rest of the films everyone predicted would have these multipliers.
Captain Underpants 36x
Hitman's Bodyguard 28x
Atomic Blonde 25x
The Dark Tower 23x
All Eyez on Me 22x
Snatched 22x
Valerian 20x
King Arthur 19x
Everything, Everything 17x
Nut Job 13x
The House 12x
Rough Night 11x
Wimpy Kid 10x
Detroit 8x
Glass Castle 7x
It Comes at Night 6x
When your predicted film makes the top 15, you loose points for every million more that it makes from the 16th place film.
Captain Underpants (#16) made 73,688,749
Annabelle had a difference of 17,177,265
Emoji had a difference of 7,459,208
Girls Trip had a difference of 38,408,976
Baby Driver had a difference of 32,154,523
and Mummy had a difference of 6,412,376
so if Girls Trip is #1, you loose 600 points for every million more than #16 which is 600 times 38.
so the multiplying numbers for each film in this case is
Girls Trip 38x
Baby Driver 32x
Annabelle 17x
Emoji 7x
Mummy 6x
With this information, then you are given what system of scoring to use per rank #1#4

damnitgeorge08
Valerian = (20)(1,000) = 20,000
Dark Tower = (23)(750) = 17,250
All Eyez on Me = (22)(500) = 11,000
It Comes At Night = (6)(250) = 1,500
Total = 49,750 = 50k
That One Guy
Emoji = (7)(-600) = -4,200
Rough Night = (11)(750) = 8,250
Girls Trip = (38)(-250) = -9,500
Dark Tower = (23)(250) = 5,750
Total = +300
... our Rough Night and Dark Tower scores match up, but you have That One Guy at minus 24,000 for Emoji and minus 28,000 for Girls Trip.
and then the next one is Tele who did not have one land in the top 15
Squadron Leader Tele
The Dark Tower (23)(1,000) = 23,000
Atomic Blonde (25)(750) = 18,750
Hitman's Bodyguard (28)(500) = 14,000
Valerian (20)(250) = 5,000
Total = 60,750 = 61,000
and you have Tele at 28,000 points for Hitman's Bodyguard which is simple human error calc. unless I misread this entire thing.
Anyways, if I am right, here are the rest of the total scores. I am getting to burnt out type out the rest. hehehee
