keysersoze123 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 It's over in the Speakeasy: http://forums.boxoffice.com/index.php?/topic/12375-cinemascore-in-retreat-as-studios-turn-to-posttrak/ Thanks Tele. CS is a joke for sure. I am shocked studios are paying 50K for this crap. This is as bad as ReelSource Tracking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted October 19, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted October 19, 2013 What Prisoners recount? CinemaScore reported a "B+" CinemaScore on Friday night, then WB basically asked them check again and on Saturday it was an "A-". Not necessarily proof of anything, but VERY suspect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily proof of anything, but VERY suspect. LOL Not only that. It's 2 guys and a pizza running the operation. They only poll 5 theaters in the whole nation. How this became a legitimate source for post release feedback is beyond me. Especially in this day and age that is totally inadequate. I agree with Tele. The data is totally unreliable and doesn't tell anybody much of anything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Nevada Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I saw TFE in Empire Leicester Square, London last saturday. It was about 80% full (mostly people over 40). I never would have guessed it would bomb so badly in the States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecstasy Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I like your new look. Thank Jack. I have a hard time with the signature though. Scaling pics down to fit the limits kind of messes things up. But it's okay I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Tele. The data is totally unreliable and doesn't tell anybody much of anything. Exactly. I'm not even sure PostTrak's 20 theaters are enough. Personally, I'd like to see it from no less than 100 theaters. It may be a huge undertaking, but it would be worth it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Thank Jack. I have a hard time with the signature though. Scaling pics down to fit the limits kind of messes things up. But it's okay I guess.Your sig is a bit disproportionate. I think make the length shorter would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leyla Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) CinemaScore reported a "B+" CinemaScore on Friday night, then WB basically asked them check again and on Saturday it was an "A-". Not necessarily proof of anything, but VERY suspect. ah that! i thought it was a typo at 1 of the sites reporting figures CS indeed is a dumb Q re: signature I accidentally clicked on the option of 'ignore all signatures' Can someone tell me how to make them shown again???

Jack Nevada Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Carrie's RT rating is 11 points higher (50%) than The Fifth Estate (39%) but both have about the same avg (5.6 and 5.5 respectively) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know it got distorted when I used the 400 x 150 requirement. I'll try again when I get some time. I saw the link below that you posted some time ago. I'll give that a try.
