I could literally see about 20 100th films but there is some seriously wonky scheduling that will kill legs, particularly of the last half of July releases (12 new wide releases in the first half of august!!!) Also i should clarify that pretty soon means in about 8 hours time probably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like everyone simply forgot the second half of August existed and fought like hell to cram everything possible into July and the first half of August. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narniadis Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I never understand the studio's mindsets since it would appear they would rather get subpar grosses with more releases than spread them out - like seriously what happened with March and the first 1/2 of April? Or even the first part of October? There is no reason to have 5 new wide releases on one weekend particularly when your studio just released a film the week before and will release one the week after!(WB I am looking at you!)

They obviously know that releasing a film at end of august has no impact no the summer game so why bother? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasmmi Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 Week 0 questions are up. There is a slight caveat that I'll explain better in about 24 hours but essentially: Preseason prediction deadline is extended by 1 week, but if you finish predictions and don't edit anything by the original deadline, you and only you are free to answer the week zero questions Also i can't link the weekly thread using this phone.

narniadis Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 hmmm bonus points on a week 0 for NOT touching our predictions if they are already in..... very tempting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasmmi Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share Posted April 27, 2016 I am glad everyone is enjoying the pre-season questions Just a reminder that you have about 44 hours until the point where editing your preseason predictions will disqualify you from answering the Week Zero questions. (But the SOTM 1 is still fair game ) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Wait, I'm totally confused. So is the technical deadline for preseason predictions now 5/5? But if you get them in by 4/28 (at midnight) you're eligible for Week 0 questions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
