ShinyDave Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 It'll be interesting to see how much of a dive people predict for SS. The new releases also feel tough to predict, making for a potential bloodbath of a week. 88% might do it this time around, @Rolling Thunder! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without calling anyone out (at the risk of offending), there's 3 A-list players that are statistically overdue for a catastrophic week. This just may be it.

I think we'd be of some value to the studios! Call me when our checks arrive. (and btw, the "due for a catastrophe" bit was my weak attempt at friendly trash talking, largely in hopes of actually making the Final 4 in this Tourney.)

Rolling Thunder Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) I see Florence screwing me worse than a Sausage this week. Edited August 9, 2016 by Rolling Thunder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the sort of movie that usually gets a platform launch, but I guess that they saw its UK run as the equivalent somehow in terms of building WOM? But that was way back in May. I'm confused.

cannastop Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 @No Prisoners @Rolling Thunder I think another reason why the derby scores are so high now is because Thursday previews are now a big thing, so we can tell how a movie is doing before the weekend even starts.

JohnnY Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Hm, I've never had Thursday numbers when doing my predictions... And I'm not playing this week, I'm too tired and busy with the olympics, gotta go to bed and wake up in 5 hours good luck, guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POTUS 2020 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Derby Sheet. @CJohn has returned https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xzOrCQsFapGc1571HZMWD7HNQe8emH2w5e9HSHV4T0s/edit?usp=sharing I will update Mojo and BO picks later and will add in the tourney brackets as well Input estimates next to Andy only and the rest is magic, at least it was for me when I first saw it 30+ years ago 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinyDave Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I probably went too aggressive lowballing all the way around, given the Olympics were in play last weekend and are rating far lower than in 2012. I'm honestly going to be delighted with top-30 this week, my predictions are so bad. This is where my early run is exposed as fraudulent. Incidentally, no Mojo predictions this week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
