May I also be the first to congratulate Jajang on his minus 24k and counting (And he is welcome to congratualte me on my epic blended predictions)

[baumer]

Good, jajang needs some negative points.  He's doing too well right now.  

[baumer]

May I also be the first to congratulate Jajang on his minus 24k and counting (And he is welcome to congratualte me on my epic blended predictions)

 

I too have Blended in my top 15.  

[baumer]

Neighbors:  May 23rd 3000

DOFP:  May 27th not sure

Godzilla:  May 26th 3000

MNO:  May 21st -5000

 

These were my answers.....I'm not sure what I will get for these.

 

Here's the wording of SOTM 4:

 

What date will these films surpass the number in question?  So you would answer with both the month and the date....for example ASM2 will pass 202 million by July 7th.

 

1) Amazing Spider-man 2:  202 mill

2) Neighbors:  105 mill

3) Mom's Night Out:  8 mill

4) Godzilla:  165 mill

5) X-men DOFP:  128 mill

 

You can go for as many of these as you like.  There are no restrictions.  But, the more you go for, the more points you can lose.  

 

For every film you call on the exact day that the gross is surpassed, you receive 5000 points.

If you miss it by one day, you still get 3000 points

 

If you miss it by two days, you lose 5000 points.

If you miss it by three days, you lose 7000 points.

If you miss the gross by more than three days, you lose 12,000 points.  

 

If you go for all five films, you cannot miss any of the films gross by more than three days.  If you do, not only do you not get any points, but you will lose at least 36,000 points.  The only way you can lose more is if you miss four or five films by more than three days.  So if you go for all five films and you miss at least one by more than three days, the MINIMUM you lose is 36,000 points.  You will lose whatever is greater in amount.  

 

So for clarity sake, if you go for 4 films, you don't have to worry about the 36,000 rule, unless of course you miss all four films by more than 3 days, then you would actually lose 48,000 points (-12,000X4).

 

If there are any questions, please let me know.  

 

Deadline for this is also Saturday May 17th at 9AM forums time.

 

 

Tip:

 

Here is what would happen if you go for all five films and miss every one of them by more than three days:

 

You would lose 60,000 points (-12,000 on every film)

[baumer]

So suddenly my top 15 isn't looking too bad (just ignore my number 15 slot...lolo)

 

baumer

 

Top 15:

 

 

 

     3. X-Men Days of Future Past:  239M  looks reasonable

 

     5. Amazing Spider-man 2:  235.5M a little high

     6. Godzilla:  209M might be bang on

     7. Neighbors: 140M might be bang on

 

     15. Blended: 106M yea...we won't talk about this one

[narniadis]

The Lucy move up is great - blended well..... And with Godzillas fall I am feeling better about my total prediction as well.

Luckily I don't think anybody guessed a date for ASM2 so this SOTM will likely be done within the week.

[chasmmi]

1. Transformers 331M2. How to Train your Dragon 317M3. X Men 259M4. GodZilla 251M5. TASM2 247M6. Planet of the Apes 235M7. Maleficient 216M8. Guardians of the Galaxy 193M9.

I don't have blended in my top 15!!! When the sod did I do that?

 

Ok top 15 predictions back to :D status

[Jake Gittes]

My top 15 is a mixed bag so far. I'm losing points on Godzilla (288m) and Million Dollar Arm and not gaining any on TASM2 (238m). On the other hand, Neighbors (157m) and DOFP (236m) look pretty good. 

[grim22]

Chef increased 500% in Friday. The expansion in theaters helped

 

I put Blended outside my top 15 at 16th place. Cursing myself for not including Lucy now. It just gained a couple of extra weeks in summer.

2) The Amazing Spider-Man 2: 330M

4) X-Men: Days of Future Past: 258M

5) Godzilla: 255M

10) Neighbors: 148M

 

16) Blended: 119M

Had Blended at 119M hopefully won't have to rely on it. Botched ASM2. DOFP could happen. Godzilla over by 30M+ (based on recent talk), why not more? Neighbors looks real good (how good?).

[Dementeleus]

I'm pretty good with TASM2 (218), GODZILLA (225), and XMEN (231). I'm fucked with Neighbors (109.5) and BLENDED (140, holy fucknuts).

[#ED]

I have neighbors at 110 or so. Hopefully it collapses completely.

[4815162342]

3) The Amazing Spider-Man 2- 274m LOL nope

4) X-Men: Days of Future Past- 238m Unless its legs plummet like TASM 2 and apparently Zilla, Solid call

6) Godzilla- 208m Looking much better after dat Friday collapse.

10) Neighbors- 139m Depends on how its late legs are. If Million Ways and 22 Jump Street ice it, might be pretty spot on.

Was it in your top 15?

[CJohn]

I won't win a damn thing with TASM2. Godzilla and X-Men seem fine. Godzilla looked bad last week but now it collapsed. X-Men needs mixed legs. 

[Dementeleus]

Was it in your top 15?

Yes.

[Neo]

Yes.

Don't feel bad, we always have one or more of these.

[Mattrek]

TASM2 (325m), X-Men (215m) and Godzilla (175m) are going to kill me. I got Neighbors (155m) pretty close though. I'm pissed about Lucy, I was really close to including it, but I figured it needed more time. Now it has extra weeks and will obviously make the top 15.
