The total is on the lower left, current number is 42332 which means ¥423.32m total http://piaofang.maoyan.com/movie/248172 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I always get him and fmpro mixed up But yeah, I remember when the China thread used to consist primarily of Fabio the pessimist, POTUS the optimist and Olive the realist 😂 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have seen too many fights all over the www including with screen-shots taken at BOT as proof / disproof for very twisted POVs. Trolls loooove over-/under estimates a lot. I think I've seen some even before I joined here. Nothing new, even long before the www some ppl did that, but they had not as much impact as especially BO was in the '70 / '80 way more difficult (and waaayyy later released BO per weekend... details) to follow, the outlets weren't on the 'click-bait train,... way more reserved reporting style. Might be one of the reason I still look out for finals, but its also not in my 'nature' to bet and so on. I go through all the threads for collecting impressions, clarifier,... look for ex-change rates, quality of translations,... for the whys / reasons the let to a final ww, and what else a movie's background might influence its financial evaluation - like extra money they have to pay as bonus, tax rebates they can get,... other forms of income, reasons a movie might getting made for. Like why did a toy producer buy Marvel then and why did they start making movies? For them it was also about the movie making money, but the TV-series,... all were in certain POVs big advertising for their toys they want to sell. 1 hour ago, feasby007 said: ....But the point is a floor shouldn't be something you just barely glide onto! .... I was simply referring to the actual experts we have here in this forum. I worry that those visitors who aren't familiar may use the "250m floor" or even "300m prediction" against us, setting people us for disappointment. that should be only reached, if the WoM is unexpected meh to bad, with a good to high rating it should not end near that, if it is near, the floor was not the correct assumed floor in my POV that is the main reason, why I so often point it out, see also the other marked text Its not also those, how often have even seasoned member afterwards told, they feel down beside their brain says they should be celebrating, bcs the let themselves push to too high hopes? And then we have for weeks the snide of the anti-CBM members that loooove to poke and poke, starting anew not needed 'discussions' Uggh 1 hour ago, feasby007 said: Nothing against you either, your tracking for OS generally (as well as NA numbers) are fantastic It's just that, sometimes, I feel you're a little too optimistic in your lower bounds. I just don't like giving visitors to this thread (and others) who are just looking for the numbers false impressions. Again, fully agree, love Charlie's enthusiasm, his work is incredible, but sometimes.... youthful optimistic appearing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So maybe I should say the floor is IW 5-day @ $230m ok, i'll see you and raise you With an OD Wed it effectively has two fridays. Thursday and Sunday will be like summer weekdays(50% stronger than normal weekdays) and Saturday will be like a summer sunday(just 10% less than a normal Saturday) This combination takes down a normal Friday thru Tuesday that IW had @fmpro you've been quiet Edited April 19, 2019 by POTUS 2020 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I got sucked in on the IW over $240m OW train and was disappointed by $200m!
