  1. Puss In Boots for the upset, cause it was better than all of them.
  2. I am here to be a basic bitch and get on that Angela + EEAAO Sweep train. Very glad The Daniels got a nom.
  3. This generator is Sooooooo funny. I could’ve screencapped every single one of them.
  4. LMFAO…. THAT is how we ended up at 12 questions. I was like “How did that happen.. hmm… okay I guess there was 12” and XXR and I are talking about the other questions. Get back to you later tonight.
  5. Is it as funny as my theater NEVER having the tickets up when they go on sale. Like I don’t know if they update their website automatically at midnight or something, but it’s so annoying.

  7. THE GAMES RETURN @XXR the Conqueror and I spoke with @chasmmi and @JJ-8 about continuing/running The Games, now that it looks like we have a super interesting and healthy 2023 to look forward to. This is our test run. If all goes slowly, we will do another round for the Summer Games (May to September). What are The Games? A true test for the box office savvy, a super fun (re: intensive) and detailed (re: there's a lot here!) box office challenge that last over several weeks. Players will start with submitting their "pre season" predictions, and then there will be optional weekly questions that add to your overall score. Twice a season, we will have some "Ridiculously Hard Questions" to add even more fun. We will explain more in the Chas Infamous Box Office Games SubForum. For now, we're going to focus on PRESEASON. So: TIMELINE Cas’ Game will return between February 17, 2023 to May 4, 2023. That means – AND THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT – we STOP the gross count on May 4, 2023. So films like Super Mario or Evil Dead Rises will only have their first weeks’ gross count, NOT their OVERALL gross. So please keep that in mind when making predictions. HOW TO SIGN UP/PLAY QUOTE this thread and FILL OUT the Template EXACTLY. You will receive 10,000 points for not changing the formatting/quoting the page. You can tweak and change your prediction any time until February 15, 2023 3:00AM EST The Weekly Questions will be posted in the Sub Forum on TUESDAY and are due on THURSDAY before the weekend. WHAT DO I WIN? The usual, glory, personal satisfaction, bragging rights, and: First Place: 3 Months Gold Account Second Place: 3 Months Premium Account Third Place: 3 Months Silver Account PART A DOMESTIC TOP 10 Predict the 10 films you believe will gross the highest over the course of the winter game along with a predicted gross. You may choose any film for this list that gets released during the course of the winter game (If you think that some film listed on BOM for a 22 screen limited release is going to explode to $750M domestic, then go ahead and predict it). Therefore your top 10 predictions should look something like the following: Small Man and Friends 1B Hay, Satan, It’s Me 969M Last Goal Loses 888M Meth Minx 751M Whisper 666M Yahoo! 505M Good Alive Falls 444M Dogs and Guns 399M Rocky 215M How To Assemble A Household Appliance 185M SCORING POINT SYSTEM: FILM ACCURACY For Correct Titles: For each film you call correctly in the Top 10, in any order, you will get 20 points. For each film you call in the EXACT spot, you will get an extra 20 points. If you get the Top 3 in the EXACT order, you will get 200 points extra. If you get the Top 5 in the EXACT order, you will get 300 points extra. If you get the Top 10 in the EXACT order, you will get 500 points extra. NOTE: These extra points stack on top of each other; thus, if you go 5/5 in the Top 5, you get 5 points, and if you go 10/10 in the Top 10, you will receive 1000 points For Incorrect Titles: For every incorrect answer in the Top 10, you will receive -50 points. GROSS ACCURACY: Call a film’s gross to within 2 million to get 50 bonus points Call a film’s gross to within 5 million to get 35 bonus points Call a film’s gross to within 15 million to get 25 bonus points Call a film’s gross to within 20 million to get 15 bonus points Call a film’s gross to within 25 million to get 10 bonus points Call a film’s gross to within 30 million to get 5 bonus points Call a film’s gross to within 35 million to get ZERO bonus points Call a film’s gross to within 35.01-50 million lose -50 points. Lose -1 point for every subsequent 10M you are away from the actual total. The closest predictor for each of the top 10 films will receive an additional 25 points to their total. Predict at least 2 of the top 10 to within 80% of its gross, score a bonus 30 points Predict at least 4 of the top 10 to within 80% of its gross, score a bonus 60 points Predict at least 6 of the top 10 to within 80% of its gross, score a bonus 100 points Predict at least 8 of the top 10 to within 80% of its gross, score a bonus 150 points Predict at least 10 of the top 10 to within 80% of its gross, score a bonus 250 points 80% of the gross will be calculated by Your Prediction/Actual = Percentage. 80% = 80.00% or more. 79.99% will not count. We will not round up for anything. Predictions over the Actual, will be calculated by Your Prediction - Actual/Actual - 1. DOUBLE WHAMMY RULE: If you call a film for the Top 10 that misses, AND you incorrectly predict its gross by +/- 25M, you will LOSE 500 points. If you don't enter a gross for a film, we will assume you are predicting same as the film in the position below. If you don't enter a gross for the 10th film it will be assumed to be 0m. so if you don't enter any grosses you will be scored against 0m predictions! PART B TOP OPENINGS Predict the Top 5 THREE DAY Opening Weekends. That means it's Friday (INCLUDING PREVIEWS) to SUNDAY. NO FOUR Day Weekends, Even if it's a Holiday It should look like the following: That means Friday (including Previews) to Sunday.

Predict 2 of the top 5 to within 80% and score a 300 point bonus. Predict 3 of the top 5 to within 80% and score a 600 point bonus. Predict 4 of the top 5 to within 80% and score a 1000 point bonus. Predict 5 of the top 5 to within 80% and score a 1500 point bonus Gross will be calculated by Your Prediction/Actual = Percentage. 80% = 80.00% or more. 79.99% will not count.

  8. Oh well point taken. Never mind. I take back what I said. Track all the days boys. I will not accept anything less!!!
  9. You could just do it in waves, all. Track the first week, then go to like every other day or every four days until you hit like T-30
  10. This is truly scumbag city!!!! it will be certainly interesting to see who stays, and who goes. Because it isn’t like there’s an alternative, other than AEW. And they really don’t need anyone else. The roster is big enough. I feel absolutely terrible for Regal. Maybe he can get out of his deal, and him, and his son can go back AEW. I also wanna know what’s gonna happen with Sammy Zane. I don’t watch the WWE, but I absolutely follow that entire story line on Twitter. And this news could not happen at the worst time for that story line. We’re gonna have a full year of build up, and it’s gonna go sideways with no proper resolution. Someone made an interesting point that the true “winner” here might be Freddy Prince Junior, who has been floating the idea starting a wrestling organization. He might be able to get some people to jump ship.
  11. Dear Academy, Yeoh, Farrell, Bassett, and Quan are the correct answers when you are filling out your score cards next month or whatever.
  12. Oh, no, only 600+ Cameron said they broke even. A3 already happening. So there is nothing really of concern in your concern trolling. Lol
  13. “Oh, no, we have to watch 15 movies and 15 tv shows to know what’s going on, people hate this stuff” — said as if television series aren’t more popular than ever or we live in a time where watching 7 episodes of a Netflix drop in one night isn’t a right of passage.
  14. Scott’s entire existence and reason for being a hero is Cassie. All his motivations spur from wanting to be a good Dad. Kang’s pitch to Scott feels like a natural extension of the first two movies, and a tempting lure for Scott.
  15. As I said in the Telegram Chat: Coppola needs to pivot to creating the series about the patriarch of a film family that is willing to blow the family fortune on his passion project, while his children are trying to prove to the world they’re not Nepo babies and can’t get funding for their own work. Everyone loves the Succession and Yellowstone. So complete the trifecta.
  16. I have watched this four times. This is CINEMA.
  17. Oh trust and believe, he did. The difference is Legion knows when to back off. or, at least,… I believe he did. I don’t know if this is the hill he intends to die on. 😘
  18. when everything went down, and he threatened to leave and take his numbers, I was like OK. We’ll just quote your tweets when you post on Twitter, dude.
