Quick thing:   I am not going to be around for a bit. Non-Board Personal issues, and I need some time. I will get the emojis up for next weekend, and run the Cas of the Cas Games (Sign Up For Them!

I.e; Dr Strange Thread is for Dr Strange.    And if you want to reference any other property, especially if it isn’t out yet, please use the spoiler t

I'm reading this kinda interesting article for school right now about a team of researchers in South Africa who used Wikipedia traffic to forecast box office numbers. Or, at least, to find a correlation between wikipedia traffic and box office numbers.

 

 

 

might as well "Hi I'm DAJK, and I am conducting research on the correlation of number of pages a film's thread generates on BOT, and the domestic box office total of that film"

Did they find a correlation (or anything at all)?

They did, but it's flawed logic to a degree (and it's valid to another) 

 

Kind of like another paper I was reading, which concluded that a higher production budget led to a higher box office revenue. Those results technically "supported" the data (312 of the domestic releases in 2010) but it's flawed logic.
