chasmmi Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I just want to move up from 35th place. Maybe ask Baumer for a similar 'steal 25k' question system for those ranked 24th-36th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasmmi Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Putting Lucy and HErcules in my top 15 actually wasn't as ridiculous as it seemed 10 weeks ago. Yay 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitik Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 my "outside the top 15" picks for this year: 16. The Purge Anarchy - $99M17. Hercules - $95M18. Sex Tape - $94M19. Lucy - $90M20. A Million Ways To Die In The West - $85M21. Blended - $75M Glad we're not being graded on those (since I'm too low on Lucy and too high on the other 5), but I'm glad I didn't completely underestimate Hercules and Purge, like many here seemingly did.

grim22 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 my "outside the top 15" picks for this year: Glad we're not being graded on those (since I'm too low on Lucy and too high on the other 5), but I'm glad I didn't completely underestimate Hercules and Purge, like many here seemingly did. Lucy moving to July killed my top 15. I had it doing 90M or so with a second week of August release, but if it had been July, I would have said 105-115M and put it in my top 15. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had it at 85M with August and would have been 115M and ahead of A MILLION WAYS TO DIE IN THE WEST OR DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

Suffice it to say, it wouldn't have a 42M ow if it was going up against TMNT and the second weekend of GOTG. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitik Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 So, simple question: Lucy and Hercules gonna be in the top 15? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 So, simple question: Lucy and Hercules gonna be in the top 15? I don't think either will, but Lucy has a chance to make it in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 So, simple question: Lucy and Hercules gonna be in the top 15? Lucy will probably make it there. It only needs a 2X multiplier to make it I think. Hercules probably not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattrek Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Same with me. Had it at 85M with August and would have been 115M and ahead of A MILLION WAYS TO DIE IN THE WEST OR DELIVER US FROM EVIL. SO ANNOYEDAdd me to that list. Didn't think it had enough time to make the top 15. Had it at 85m though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ-8 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 I'm quite liking the fact I put Lucy in my top 15. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasmmi Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 For the top 15 TF4 Male Xmen Apes TASM2 Godzilla 22JS Neighbours Dragon Fault are all locked in, Guardians will of course make it too which means there are 4 spots up in the air. Edge is the front runner with 98M Tammy is next with a likely 90M ish finish So i'd say breaking 100M guarantees a top 15 finish, but beating Tammy may also manage it. Lucy is look pretty set to beat EOT which will be enough. Hercules will need a 3-3.2 multiplier I think to overtake Tammy which would mean it comes down to whether there are 2 other films yet to be released that can break 90M. For me I only see Turtles doing it. (Although things like Get on Up and Expendables have a shot.) But overall I see the top 15 turning out like (not in this order: TF4 Male Xmen Apes TASM2 Godzilla 22JS Neighbours Dragon Fault Guardians EOT Lucy Turtles Tammy/Hercules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Gittes Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Looks like Universal will push Neighbors over 150m in the end, although it probably won't reach 150.394. Edited July 27, 2014 by Jake Gittes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
