BSG: Congratulations to FILM!

[kitik]

But according to baumer, he's counting anything after today as part of the game.

 

That seems strangely arbitrary. Why would Monday count towards summer but not Sunday?

Baumers Summer Game

[baumer]

Yes. Its my game. My rules. :)Thats why its so important to read things I post guys. I dont usually make arbitrary threads. Anything it makes from here on out is part of the gross. Its much easier choosing a number now than Thursday.

[baumer]

4 days people.  And then all fucking hell is going to breaking loose. 

 

[chasmmi]

So for Spiderman to turn any specific country questions into a Yes it needs to  make:

 

Q4 (Australia) 31.5 + 6.195 = 37.695 total gross required

 

Q5 (UK) 45 + 15.125 = 60.125 total gross required

 

Q11 (Russia) No gross reported for the weekend yet so I assumed that its opening weekend will then technically count as part of the 35 required Million even though it opened Thursday

 

Q19.5 (Brazil) not released so full gross will count

 

Q19.7 (Spain) 20 + 3.873 = 23.873 total gross required

 

 

I do noticed that the total foreign total has been reported for the weekend and some specific (most) markets have not. So it may be the case that these will be to be updated when BOM's region specific reports come in. 

[baumer]

Now thats just getting confusing lol

Good morning everyone.

 

Chas brought something important to my attention this morning in the main thread and because of it, I've decided to count all the gross for ASM2 from before the beginning of the game.  It has opened in a number of international markets and the entire gross will count towards the summer total.

 

It's too confusing to keep track of the numbers from every market it's opened in so far, especially pertaining to the questions for this week.

 

So adjust your numbers accordingly.

 

Thanks.

Good morning everyone.

 

Chas brought something important to my attention

 

Hmm, I haven't even read this week's questions yet. I'm glad some folks don't wait until the last minute.

 

 

Domestic Bottom 5

 

2. Snowpiercer - 10.3m

 

 

 

Baumer:

Snowpiercer still isn't listed as wide, so can I assume it's not eligible for this question?

 

Also, can I assume that if a movie we selected for the bottom 5 moves out of summer (or to maybe August 22), we'll still get credit for getting it right, since it's total gross by the end of the game would be zero?

[baumer]

Snowpiercer countsYes you are correct kitik

[chasmmi]

Chasmmi: Destroyer of worlds!!! ... well confusing preseason anomolies at least

[#ED]

Spidey really is a troubled start for everyone. It's last years MoS. No one has a clue where it will open domestically (80M - 110M)

[baumer]

I don't feel good about my answers at all.

[Chewy]

There's one answer I feel good about: abstaining from question 20

[baumer]

You might be the only smart one.

[BadAtGender]

Okay, done. Whether I make changes or not is going to be a battle between laziness and obsessiveness. Laziness is likely to win out.

 

Anyone else feel like the WW opening weekends is a complete spitball?

[baumer]

I'm confused by a lot this year.  ASM for sure but fault in our stars is another.

[baumer]

Okay, done. Whether I make changes or not is going to be a battle between laziness and obsessiveness. Laziness is likely to win out.

I kind of feel like that about this weeks questions, the WW weekends, and many of the top 15 grosses.
