JJ-8

Guys. I copied and pasted everyone's answers into an excel. I've given access to b. My advice though is DO NOT edit your post though. If u want to win

Well if AOU has further drops like that then 40m could be at risk. I think it will pass ff7 eventually but it's going to a lot closer than we all expected. And frankly ff7 now has a realistic shot of staying above AOU. as it stands. FF7 is ahead thanks to its weekdays. If AOU can't stay above 4.4m next weekend it could be in big trouble. AOU is now further off the pace of the first film. Some 2.3m.

I agree. I did say under 50m. I think it can get close but I am looking for close to 8.5m.

Pretty much inline with my thinking. Hoping for the top end of that though. Id say for final total it should just under 50m.

as long as we all end up ahead of Tele... all shall be good

Baumer to decide 24

So around 90m OD. Still fantastic. Also thinking it will wind up between 210m and 215m. Its no coincidence I predicted 211m in baumers summer game

Gotta question everyone... why is it a lotta people keep saying this will decrease from the normal friday to saturday (excludes previews) I'm thinking it will increase...... Recent examples: Movie - previews - friday (minus previews) - sat TASM 2 - 8.7m - 26.4m - 33.2m (so increase even with bad WOM) IM3 - 15.6m - 53.2m - 62.3m (increase) TA - 18.7m - 62.1m - 69.6m (increase) Thor - 3.2m - 22.2m - 23.3m (increase) Just some basic idea that it would be unusual fo rthis film to decrease. i could go back further but i'm not sure i'll find a film that decreased on sat from the normal friday. on this weekend (EDIT)

Fun fact... in Australia, AOU made 1.4m from Wednesday night Previews and then followed with a 15.7m OW (the previews aren't included in the Opening weekend - don't forget that we have a 4 day opening weekend in australia) so this is a US only thing including the night before the OW in the OW in saying that, it would still only be the 2nd biggest OW in Australia Potter still retains that title either way

Looks to a fantastic opening day. So we have Previews 26.7m Friday 70.3m (97m total) Most films tend to increase from at this time of year by 8 to 12% (big openers). Even SM3; im3 did it. Even with a smaller bump. And a sun dip of 30%. Sat 74m Sun 51m Weekend - 222m Even flat Friday sat puts this on target for 215m. If use history of this weekend then 230m + is in the picture. I won't use locked but 210m+ is looking likely by this.

I'm thinking 30m +

Will be interesting how the 2nd weekend plays out. TA made 8.2m. If AOU is at all going to catch up it needs to above that. If AOU somehow matches the 38% drop of the first you get 9.7m. Yeah. Not seeing that kind of total given AOU had its sat boosted last weekend. I'm thinking 8m to 8.5m after those weekdays.

that is terrible news RIP.

PLAYERS: There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right. The Ron Jeremy of all bonus questions This is a four parter: 1) Will Avengers make at least 600 million domestically? YES 2) Will Avengers make more than a billion internationally? YES 3) Will Avengers do at least 25 million for previews ABSTAIN 4)) Will Avengers make at least 1.8 billion WW? NO Scoring: All questions you answer correctly are worth 7000 points. You can go for as many as you like. Here is the catch: Every answer you call incorrectly you lose 10,000 points. There are no points for abstaining, with one caveat down below. *** Even more bonus and more treachery: If you go 4/4 you get a 28,000 point bonus. So this means you will get a total of 56,000 points for this question (7000X4 plus 28,000 point bonus) However, if you go for all 4 you must get all four correct. If you get even one incorrect, you will lose 20,000 points. So what this means is, if you go for all four and even if you get 3/4 correct, not only will you NOT get the 11,000 but you will lose a full 15,000 points. This question is worth a lot of points for those ballsy enough to go for all 4, but it will kick your ass if you get too cocky. PLEASE READ THIS ONE CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND IT FULLY. IF YOU DO NOT, THEN ASK ME. ONCE THE GAME STARTS, CLAIMING YOU DIDN'T READ IT RIGHT WILL NOT BE AN EXCUSE. THE BOTTOM LINE IS IF YOU GO FOR ALL FOUR QUESTIONS, YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST GET ALL FOUR RIGHT IN ORDER TO GET POINTS. Remember, you don't have to answer any of them. Or you can answer as little as you want. It's totally up to you. You can choose to go for as many or as little as you want. ***CAVEAT*** If you choose to abstain from all 4, you will get 5000 for doing so. You must tell me if you are abstaining. NEW QUESTION: This is a four part question. Again, you have choices. Answer any part of the question. Each answer you get correct you will receive 7000 points. Each answer you get wrong, you will lose 7000 points. If you go for all four parts of the question, you must get all four parts correct. If you get even one wrong after going for it all, you will lose 7,000 points. You can go for all of it, none of it and some of it. Choice is yours. 17) Note*** Jurassic World does not qualify for this question A) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? NO Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 35 mill? NO C) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 47%? NO D) Will any film listed as a horror OR thriller film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 13 mill? ABSTAIN Get any question right: 7000 Get any question wrong: -7000 Abstain from all four questions: 5000 Go for all four, and get all four correct not only will you get the 28,000, you get a bonus of 28,000. But you must go for all four to qualify for the bonus Double Secret Probation Bonus Question Very simple, but very dangerous. I'll give you a number, you tell me if Avengers will gross more or less than that number in said markets. 1) Russia: 42M MORE 2) Germany: 31.5M LESS 3) Portugal: 3M MORE 4) China: 200M MORE If you go for this question, you must get all 4 correct. This is not a partial question. If you get at least 3 of the 4 correct, you will get 50,000. If you choose to abstain from this question, you will lose 15,000 points. If you go for the question and you do not get at least 3 or the 4 correct, you will lose 30,000 points. Choose Wisely. The "Hey maybe you haven't been keeping up on current events but we just got our asses kicked pal" question of debauchery. Will Jurassic World and F7 combine to make more than Avengers in these markets? 1) Japan YES 2) United Kingdom NO 3) Columbia NO 4) Mexico YES Each answer will be yes or no. Nothing more. You must get at least three correct. Get three correct, get a bonus of 50,000, don't get three correct, lose 25,000, abstain, lose 10,000. As promised, here are your additional 20 25 questions for you. I love this part of the game. For every question you get right, you receive 7000 points. For every question you get wrong, you lose 2000 points. These are mandatory questions, there is no abstaining. Any player who is in this game, who does not answer these questions, loses 50,000 points. Do not forget to do these. Remember grosses count from May 1st until September 7th.

Arggggggggggg

Fantastic that ff7 got to 40m this weekend. And as for AOU. that opening should place it well for a 45m finish. 50m will take some special holds. Still opening this doesn't guarantee a finish above 40m. Just very likely. So as it stands AOU will trail TA by 2.2m as of Monday. Be interesting if it close that gap up by Thursday at all. No doubting that AOU had a stronger Sunday than TA so here's hoping it translates into the weekdays. TA had by the end Wednesday 22.8m. 3m to 4m weekdays for AOU should put it closer.

Impressive. Most impressive!

From BOM's report. We got an opening of 13.1m USD. That should be in the range of 16.6m to 16.8m (pretty much in line with earlier updates. Nice) FYI - the USD opening will include the previews. While the final AUD won't

Even with the likely hefty drop ff7 sees this weekend (60%+) ff7 should cross the 40m mark (on Sunday is my thinking)

Yeah that's my thinking too. 44 - 48m is my current range. 50m+ isn't out of range but going to be tough.

It is indeed a fantastic sat #. Should mean TA2 can reach 40m at a minimum with 50m dependent on some good holds. And I think the GA seems to like it so far. If u think, ta2 will be around 16.5m including previews after 4 days (4.1 essentially) it compares well with the 5 full day total of TA (19.3m) To match TA2 we will need < 40% dips every week. Ie strong legs.

So it may match the first films OD on the sat. Is that possible. 6m sat?

So ok. Wed (pv) 1.4m Thurs 2.9m / 4.4m Fri will bump but sat should be even bigger with Sunday falling in line with fri is my thoughts. Say, (projections) F 4.3m Sat 5.3m Sun 3.9m 16.4m OW possible ? (17.8 including pv) I'd say the range 14.5m to about 17m if it somehow explodes sat. So it's currently sitting in the expected range but stands a chance to expand.
