Wrath Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) Sigh. Just as I've gotten things back together, my basement floods. Spent the last week dealing with that. Hopefully *this* will be the week I get my act back together. Should be a good week for it. Please provide your 3/25-27 Opening Weekend predicts for, Batman vs Superman Big Fat Greek Wedding Deadline is now going to be sometime between midnight Wednesday and Thursday midmorning (US Eastern time), depending on when I get to it. Ps - I'll get last week's predicts and results up tomorrow, plus its time to update the data I've posted in case anyone is curious. Edited March 21, 2016 by Wrath Quote

Basement is almost all better. Unfortunately, my time of out of the blue improbable distractions is continuing, as Mrs Wrath's 33 year old cousin just had a stroke. She's a doctor in Chicago and hopefully still will be after this is over. We're pretty close and we're considering flying out to visit her. I still remember her in junior high and giving her advice on colleges. Its really bizarre. PS - I'm going with: BvS 175 Greek 13.5 Edited March 24, 2016 by Wrath Quote
Wrath Posted March 24, 2016 Author Posted March 24, 2016 I'm not caught up, but it would have been *criminal* to not post predicts for this week. Wildly low Ratios on both so I hope we're right. As usual, I went through the various predicts (24 for BvS, 23 for Greek) and here's what we ended up with: BvS Mean: 173.2M Median: 175M StnDev: 15.53M Ratio (StnDev/Mean): 8.96% High: 225M Low: 140M BO.com 172M Deadline 161M MovieWeb 159M ShowBuzzDaily 166M Variety 150M Greek Wedding Mean: 13.5M Median: 13.5M StnDev: 2.00M Ratio (StnDev/Mean): 14.80% High: 18M Low: 10M BO.com 18.5M Deadline MovieWeb 17.5M ShowBuzzDaily 17M Variety 10M Quote
Wrath Posted March 29, 2016 Author Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) Annnnnnd I'm now caught up. Just in time for me to leave town for a couple weeks. Sigh. Batman vs Superman Prediction: 173.2M +/- 15.53M (1 standard deviation) Actual: 166M (off by 7.2M, so 0.46 stndev) In theory this was a pretty good predict, but everyone nailed it except Variety who low-balled a bit and really weren't that far off. So we beat them, and BO.com narrowly beat us for 3rd place. We did alright but nothing special. Best predict was 166.5M by CJohn. Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 Prediction: 13.5M +/- 2.00M (1 standard deviation) Actual: 17.9M (off by 4.4M, so 2.20 stndev) Pretty terrible. We went low and it modestly overperformed (at least, imo). We only beat Variety who seriously thought it would tank. The other three were pretty much dead-on. Our best predict was 18M by excel1. Edited March 29, 2016 by Wrath Quote
