As an fyi, in the last Winter game, in weeklies I came in 17th out of the ~19 people who were taking them seriously and on SotM's, I came in 14th of the 21-22 people who were taking them seriously. And I ended up winning. This game is a little different but you're not out of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's actually a diabolically worded question cuz 16.43m is already half of Blade Runner's domestic gross and so it's the actual number it needs to do. And I only just realized it myself.

Go to hell chas Hmmm... @chasmmi really needed to be more clear there for sure since all other numbers were the values he was talking about, like the Mexico Gross, Midnight Gross etc. 16.43 may still be possible, but it isn't a lock. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like when you're watching a football game, a team scores in the first quarter and you hear somebody go "Welp, looks like the other teams done for!"

Only me and Movieman predicted TDK to beat Indy 4. But I predicted only TDK 325 (to Indy at 315m). I think around 3 weeks to release(when Peter Travers review came out), predictions exploded. I think Shawn was the only one to predict OW record for it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracking wasn't nearly as sophisticated as it is now....and I do remember the fever for TDK back then. But you are right, there were few people who predicted really big things for it, before the reviews and such put the buzz through the roof. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because most of us didn't go really high on it. In fact, with Prometheus legs it gets to 90 million. So everyone should be okay. Guess it's a good thing I went under 100 million DOM if your right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
