You know, maybe if I actually had a grudge against It, this post would make sense.

 

It's just when you put your predictions out there and they are off by quite a margin, you're going to get called in it.  Plus, your forecast for IT wasn't based on realistic increases if you by historical precedent.

BEST TWEET OF THE DAY...

 

 

Including Ghostbusters with those other 3 seems strange. That’s why I unfollowed ERC last year, constant incorrect shady tweets about Ghosbusters.

Did anyone expect It to increase nearly 200% on Friday? I don't think so. My prediction was really fair based on how it was performing during the week. Maybe if Grim wasn't so obsessed with digging up my incorrect WB predictions between WW, Annabelle, and now It this weekend, I wouldn't care as much.

[Krissykins]

Has a horror movie ever returned to #1 in its 4th weekend?? 

[baumer]

So WB even has IT dropping a reasonable amount, where as Kingsman, not so much.  Kings might even drop harder on Sunday.

[La Binoche]

Poor Ellen Page, not only is her career dead but Juno is completely forgotten.

It was a flop in the end, so I don't see the issue grouping it with those. The movie which doesn't actually belong in that group is Robocop which actually did 2.5x its budget WW, something Ghostbusters failed to do. That movie actually got Sony profit.

Some of these sold less tickets than their predecessors. (Aliens, MI2, Ice Age 2)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

also the first POtc was huge. Definitely not just a moderate hit 

 

I didn't realize we were using tickets sold.  Dollars to dollars.
