Yeah, not bad if it sticks

 

JJ8 on the other hand, came up against his one weakness in this SOTM format: An actual opponent  

And I had my best week too. 

 

I needed alice to make 5.8+ and then Warcraft 27.3m... Then I was thru. 

[narniadis]

Well it was a nice run but like JJ8 I got sunk once a real opponent came on board :/

Got in really late last night and forgot to do this 

 

So it begins...

[Jake Gittes]

I just realized that I completely fucked up SOTM 6. Put in six answers I think will actually be correct. That's what I get for doing it at 6 AM.

You never know, in the winter game I did a similar question with Kung Fu panda.

 

We all went for the wrong answers, nearly everyone ended up with a positive score because we got so many of the questions right despite aiming to get everything wrong

[Infernus]

No!! Wait, no. There just must be a 1000 point thing you might have simply looked over or forgot to add for me! I simply cannot be second again! God, what sin was it that I committed?!

[Infernus]

Aha!! @chasmmi Part 2 Q1 is 86.955 not 86.55. My answer was 87m. I win those 6000 points with record accuracy  !!!!

Yeah, that week was hilarious. I think I abstained so I didnt pay much attention to everyone's answers so I didnt realize everyone was trying to be wrong.  

 

When the results came in below expectations I was happy because I assumed everyone was screwed. But since everyone was TRYING to be wrong, people still got really good scores by accidentally getting them all right.

@chasmmiJust in case I gave the wrong impression - I am being serious here. The answer to Part 2 Q 2 really is 86.955 and not 86.55. And I did answer 87.

Really hard to figure out what the heck is gonna make the top 15 this year. It looks like we still only have 4 movies released that will cross 100 (maybe 6 with Central Intelligence and Conjuring 2 if the holds are great after this terrible drop). BFG, Tarzan, and Ice Age all seem highly unlikely to hit the 100 mark, and not even ID4 and Ghostbusters are guaranteed right now. This would be my very revised new top 15 predictions atm:

 

1. Finding Dory - $465m

2. Suicide Squad - $425m

3. Civil War - $410m

4. Pets - $305m

5. Jason Bourne - $195m

6. Apocalypse - $160m

7. Star Trek Beyond - $150m

8. Ghostbusters - $135m

9. Independence Day: $115m

10. Central Intelligence - $110m

11. Angry Birds - $108m

12. Pete's Dragon - $105m

13. The Conjuring 2 - $100m

14. The BFG/TMNT 2/Tarzan/Sausage Party - $80-90m

15. The BFG/TMNT 2/Tarzan/Sausage Party - $80-90m
