The Dark Alfred Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 October doesn't look strong, Vast Dark can perform well with moderate reviews and cliffhanger end. December is very strong, And The Band Played On should have an amazing run, Seventh Seal can challenge 200m, The Morrow aims for 300m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Consdering the fact that medevil films don't do that well, unlikely. (Ever since my Oscar winner that was medevil somehow was frontloaded in this game...other then the person who did actuals that year was pretty bias) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Community Manager Water Bottle Posted December 17, 2011 Author Community Manager Share Posted December 17, 2011 Ehh whatever. Whenever I had a film someone would say "In the real world I don't think it would do that well"I mean, sure be realistic, but let's not forget this is just a game and that we should have fun with it and not try to make the box office like the real world. Especially since in the real world, we actually wouldn't know how most of our films would do since the box office is just so darn unpredictable.

Impact Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Yeah I know. But some people who are not here anymore would use that excuse for my films. (Even if they were Oscar nominees/winners/whatever) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I'd prefer to not rely on Cayom A/Cayom 1 for how we should do Box Office. Starting with a more realistic model would help this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiccup Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 The Chrysalids opening that low and having such poor legs would be kind of unrealistic because of the well-known cast and strong reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiccup Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Fine I will edit its legs, just saying though that M. Night is a HUGE turn off anymore.Turn but it is his return to the type of films people remember him most for. Also in CAYOM 1.0 before he directed Chrysalids he directed The Book of Revelations: The Final Judgement which was ten times worse than Last Airbender and Chrysalids opened around 64M and finished at 200M.
