JJ-8

ok. just give me a few minutes but i'm going to post some preliminary points for the domestic top 7. understand this is only preliminary until Baumer finalises it but as I've already noted, i don't see any other films making the top 7 OW at this point so i believe this can be scored now or least a preliminary score.

And i believe that is the top 7 opening weekends of the summer done. I don't see anything else cracking 69m before the end of august on opening weekend. I'll do the worldwide also shortly but i also believe the top 5 weekends are set in concrete now.

Happy I put Lucy into my top 15 (one of only a few) (I don't want to talk about my 15th place selection..... Earth to Echo - what was i thinking )

Update is coming soon......

Well Lucy got 4.4m usd - biggest opening for the director here. So about 4.7m in AUD. Very nice start.

That is fantastic. I finally caught Apes over the weekend (yes i know i'm behind times at the moment but i've recently been in hospital putting my movie going ability out for a bit). Loved the film... now i want to see Lucy if I can fit it in before the madness that is Guardians hits the screen. As for opening weekend for Guardians... until last thursday i was hoping for an opening around 6m to 7m. suddenly i'm hoping it pulls something bigger... and saves the box office.... is 8m to 10m possible ? I won't say more as school is in right now.

Wow wee. Impressive. Most impressive. I was believer in 80m but 100m in with a chance. ?? Insane. Dat OD. 40 to 45m I'd say with all the various reports.

Normal rules...you know the drill by now. 1) Will GOTG make more than 75 mill? YES 2) Will GOTG make more than 80 mill? NO 3) Will GOTG make more than 175 mill WW? YES 4) Will GOTG make more than 5 mill for Thurs previews? YES 5) Will Get on Up make more than 7.5 mill OD? NO 6) Will Get on Up make more than 20 mill OW? NO 8) Will Lucy fall less than 58%?

A potential 45,000 points up for grabs. Deadline is Thursday July 31st at 11:59 pm. EDIT - just bolding my answers

Let the drum rolls begin.....

No update this - nothing has changed. I'll do a full summary after GOTG opens.

I'm quite liking the fact I put Lucy in my top 15.

No update to the worldwide weekends to date... nothing has come close since Transformers to break into the top 5. in fact that may be the end result...(we need a worldwide weekend of 170m or more to make the top 5 now - which unless GOTG does it somehow, we ain't seeing so i'm thinking the top 5 is resolved.. Once GOTG opens domestically, i believe we can score both the domestic OW and worldwide weekends charts as no one else predicted anything else breaking into the top 7 or 5 and frankly.. unless i'm wrong i'm doubting anything else post GOTG cracks 50m domestically on opening weekend and 170m worldwide.

Update Domestic - * Dawn now added (replaces Dragon 2 in the Top 7 OW) * Dragon 2 has now been updated to reflect the fact it's not making the top 7 oh and just because I wanted to: Dawn of the Planet of the Apes: Actual OW - 72.611m jajang - 72.5m damn that was close!
