Well. His hands are more bound than what you think: He can't change Dom totals, he can't change the movies in WW chart, he has already the positions (!) For example, next movie that will come out is San Andreas. Honestly I didn't change my mind on any WW prediction and I still think what I tought a month ago but let's suppose there were news that have just come out that tell us that is going to be a sure 750 m hit. Could B take advantages of that? Well, given the fact that he can't alter the positions, not so (but really not so) much. He really can't change his mind that much on a movie since that decision would affect basically the all chart. His leeway is really very small. Even if he would alter, he couldn't. Well he could actually alter them by adding/removing 20-30 M but not in a considerable way. The game lasts 4 months and that wouldn't affect it that much. Moreover I noticed already when I started playing 2 year ago that this game attaches more importance to which movies you choose (and their order) instead of what are the totals that you put on them. Then guys, you decide, I said mine.

IMHO you should add them. 1. Since you don't have nor MM, neither PP2 or Tomorrowland, they only movie which has come out is AOU (and having it at a lot more than a Billion OS, since it had already been released in half markets at the beginning of the game, would have been already quite stupid at the end of April, so it doesn't amaze me at all (and I believe you) if you tell me that you had it at "only" 1,6 B, ). Basically no problem. 2. We play only because you "let" us to (and you spent and spend a lot of time to give us this opportunity). You forgot once, we owe you more than this favour and you don't have basically any (big) advantages in doing that now (since movies are already chosen). Do it.

Aloha San Andreas Entourage Insidious 3 Spy Dope Inside Out Magic Mike 2 Terminator Genisys You have 8 possible SOTM questions to choose from. Your choices are: What will have the best OW (this will include any 5 day openings). What will have the best total? INSIDE OUT What will have the best opening day? INSIDE OUT What will have the best midnight/early shows from the day before the official release? What will have the best legs (multiplier...note, multiplier will count from a three day OW only)? What will have the smallest opening weekend? DOPE What will have the smallest opening day? DOPE Name at least two films that will make more than 150 mill (if y ou do not think there will be two, that can be your answer as well)

1) Will Poltergeist have at least 1.5 mill in previews? YES 2) Will Poltergeist have an opening day of more than 7 million? YES 3) Will Tomorrowland be number one for the 4 day weekend? NO 4) Will Tomorrowland gross more for the three day than Poltergeist does for the 4? NO 5) Will Pitch Perfect 2 fall more than 45%? YES 6) Will Max fall more than 40%? NO 7) Will any film in the top 10 increase for the 4 day (compared to last weeks 3 day)? NO 8) Will Avengers have a Saturday increase of more than 60.5%? NO 9) Will Home remain in the top 10? YES 10) Will F7 get past 350 mill after Monday, so Monday's gross will count for this question.NO 11) Will Mad Max have a better Thursday drop % wise than PP2? NO 12) Will Age of Adeline have a better drop % wise than Woman in Gold? YES 10/12 3000 11/12 4000 12/12 7000 (I think the questions have a good degree of difficulty this weekend. Question 13: ABSTAIN Bonus 1: What finishes in spots: 6 HOT PERSUIT 8 PAUL BLART 9 ADELINE 12 WOMAN IN GOLD 3000 each and a bonus of 3000 if all four correct. Bonus 2: What will PP2 and Tomorrowland combine to make for the 4 day? 77,456 m Bonus 3: What will Age of Adaline make on Saturday? 0,923 m

Wait a minute: who will be first in $? AOU or F7? I need AOU to pass F7 for my BSG

Is that a contradiction? Or can we answer 1,2,3,4 or 8 (but not 5,6,7) questions?

Pitch Perfect should be lower. "Pitch Perfect 2 hit all the right notes this weekend, adding $26.9 million from 29 markets to raise its overseas tally to $38.1 million and already tracking 174% ahead of the original." This WE ww it has made 70,3+26,9=97,2 M

Disney machine can't launch anything outside Animation, Pixar, Marvel (and SW)

I've just realized that this, SA or Pan will be the highest grossing movie OS and WW for WB. Luckily they had American Sniper earlier this year

4 out of 4 for me! China was pretty predictable. Russia, Germany and Portugal had ER to deal with.

Is it going to close at 270-280 M here in China?

Not that much. Very very unlikely.

In the last Week it has made: -155 M in China -53 M in other OS countries. 770+120 M China + 55 M OS + 25 Jap= 960 M OS?

Thanks Jajang for the great Work

Disney gave my numbers. I don't think they simply look at the totals and made a brief comparision. They considered country by country and so their comparisions are far more precise than those you made by simpy considering totals. TA2 is running 7% above TA and 6% above IM3 in the same countries and taking into account the number of days it has been released in every country.

oh God. +44%/+24% on TA/IM3 was when considering local currencies. On a dollar basis it would have been more like +17%/10% respectively. And when they said +7%/+6% they took out the OW of China in both movies (otherwise it would have been down something since both TA and IM3 were above 440 M after 2nd WE OS)

Almost everywhere is a holiday. Friday will be inflated and so 200 M WE are possible

3rd... and yes, it's a record (Avatar made 136M$ in its 3rd WE)

What's your prediction for it? Do you think it can crack 200M$ in this market?
