4) Will at least 3 films make more than $1.1B worldwide? Yes

5) Will at least 3 films make more than 120M OW domestic? Yes

(for the three preceding questions, even though I didn't have them specifically happening in my predictions, I would not be surprised if it happened. My numbers are pretty close, so I'll enter to hedge my bets)

6) Would at least 4 of the March 2017 releases have made it into the Domestic top 15 for the summer game if their runs had been eligible (So if I made a combined top 10 list of the summer Game releases and the March releases, would 4 or more be from March?) Yes

8) Will at 3 sequels, prequels, reboots or anything similar go on to drop more than 60% domestically from its previous franchise installment? (For this question purpose: Spiderman Homecoming is following ASM2, Despicable Me follows Minions, Wonder Woman follows Suicide Squad, Annabelle 2 follows Conjuring 2, I can’t think of any more that aren’t obvious right now) No

9) Will any film in the top 15 have a multiplier below 2.3? Yes, Transformers 5

10)Will Sci-Fi films (anything that BOM lists as Sci-fi or XXX/Sci-fi [so that means GOTG2 for example is not Sci-fi for this question) combine to make more than 700M domestically by the end of the game? No

11) Will the domestic top 8 make more than $1B combined in China? No

12) Will at least three out of Luc Besson, Christopher Nolan, Michael Bay, Ridley Scott and Edgar Wright have their highest grossing film not involving Batman or Transformers this summer (obviously with Michael Bay I mean will his 5^thTransformers film outgross every non-transformers film he has done?) No

13) Will Warner Bros have exactly 3 films in the top 15 domestic this summer? Yes

14) Will a film finish in the top 10 WW, but fail to make the top 15 domestic? No

15) Will any film spend 3 weeks at number one domestic this summer? Yes, GOTG2
