    I went with the 3 day domestic W/E numbers since the previous games did the same. Looks like I got the best on X-Men, Whoo!

     

    Used Mojo to get the numbers, tough to find exact info. But it looks, right

    If your prediction is in ORANGE, then you are within $10 MILLION and get 25,000 points!

    If your prediction is in PURPLE, then you are within $20 MILLION and get 20,000 points!

    If your prediction is in GREEN, then you are within $30 MILLION and get 15,000 points!

    If your prediction is in BLUE then you are within $50 MILLION and get 10,000 points!

    With Alice bombing, can the Angry Birds sneak into the top 10? 

     

    I'm not liking my top 10, Alice is not going to make it :/ Hopefully, X-Men can crawl to 700m WW. 

     

    Oh, I already including Warcraft's overseas take in the standings, just for the fun. China, you better not worship it like Pacific Rim and Transformers

    Chasmmi's Summer 2016 Game: Worldwide Top 10 Standings

    in Chasmmi's Infamous Box Office Game

    Posted · Edited by Exxdee

    Ok, I decided that I would do the WW weekend also, it didn't take too long (30 minutes or so if you're wondering)

     

    I used Boxofficemojo, I added international and domestic weekend (Mojo's chart seems to be off, for the all-time chart). Rentrax seemed to have estimates. Correct me if I'm wrong

     

    As for me, I just missed the gold/orange mark :( 

     

    No wonder you wanted someone to score WW weekends @Telemachos

    Big ones,

    Silence (going to read this novel, the master Scorcese)

    Sully, Hanks, Eastwood and real story (or maybe another J. Edgar?)

    The Founder, Keaton

    Manchester by the Sea, Lonergan

    Billy Lynn's Walk, Ang Lee + War setting

    Stronger, David Gordon Green + Boston Marathon tragedy (next year's Spotlight Tom McCarthy?)

     

    My favs from some great directors, I have high hopes, maybe some oscars for:

    Nocturnal Animals (Tom Ford and Gyllenhaal)

    Story of Your Life (love this Chiang's short story, Adams + Villeneuve + Montreal filmed, my personal most anticipated)

    War Machine (Michod and Brad Pitt)

    The Promise (my boy Oscar Isaac and Christian Bale in an Epic)

    The Yellow Birds (great book with some good actors like Sheridan and maybe Aniston gets some love?)

     

    Man, if Birth of No Nation doesn't get love, imagine the controversy
