SOTM #3: By the end of the game, which of these films, % wise, will finish closest to the total?

 

Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug:  $260 mill

Frozen: $305 mill

Anchorman 2:  $125 mill

American Hustle: $100 mill

Saving Mr. Banks:  $70 milll

Madea's Christmas: $48 milll

 

So for example, if Anchorman 2 finishes with 120 mill, then it would have finished within 93.75% of that number. You have to call the correct film to get the points and it has to be closest % wise.

 

Call the correct film to be the closest to the total % wise, get 10,000 points.

Call the incorrect film and you lose 5000 points.

Abstain, 2000 points; If you abstain, you do not qualify for the bonus.

 

Anchorman 2 was the closest with a final gross of $122,510,239 (1.99% away). [Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug was 4.09% away, Saving Mr. Banks was 8.74% away, Madea was 8.87% away, Frozen was 10.39% away, and American Hustle was 17.60% away.]

Bonus:  What will those films finish with by the end of the game?  If you call it within 4%, you get a bonus of 5,000 points. If you miss the total by more than 6.5%, you lose 5,000 points.

 

You can go for as many as you want. However, if you go for all 6, YOU MUST GET ALL SIX CORRECT.  If you do not, you will lose a minimum of 10,000 on top of whatever it is you lose by being off on the other films. Get all right, and you get a bonus of 10,000, which could make this SOTM question worth 50,000 to you.

SOTM #4: How many films (currently in theaters or to be released in January) will reach the $100M mark by the end of the game?

 

If you guess the correct number, you get 10,000 points.

If you are off by one film, you get 5,000 points.

If you are off by more than one, you lose 8,000 points.

Abstain, you get 3,000 points.

Bonus) If you can name the films that will reach the $100M mark and guess which day they will cross the mark, you will get an additional 2,000 bonus points for each film correctly guessed.

 

So if, for example, you guessed 3 films will cross the mark, your answer would look like this:

3 films will cross $100M by the end of the game

 

Bonus:

Nebraska – 1/13

Inside Llewyn Davis – 1/16

Philomena – 1/19

 

Note: You can only lose points on the first part. You will not lose points for any portion of the bonus. This means that even if you are wrong on the first part, you have the potential to gain points from the bonus. You don’t need to have the first part correct in order to answer the bonus.
