SOTM 5 - The Overs and the Unders

[chasmmi]

Anyone familiar with the game, knows how this one works by now...

 

PART A:

 

Below are 10 films due for release between now and June 15th, along with their predicted total grosses according to https://pro.boxoffice.com/long-range-tracking-jurassic-world-fallen-kingdom/

 

1. Overboard - $39M

2. Life of the Party - $54M

3. Book Club - $25M

4. Action Point - $42.5M

 

5. Adrift - $34M

6. Tag - $43M

7. Show Dogs - $25M

8. Breaking In - $34.8M

 

 

All you have to do is predict whether the predictions above are too high, or too low.. You can choose to predict for as many or as few films as you wish. 

 

Please use the following Wording:

 

HIGHER - The film will gross higher than the BO.com prediction

LOWER - The film will gross lower than the BO.com prediction

DOUBLE - The film will gross more than double the BO.com prediction

HALF - The film will gross less than half the BO.com prediction

 

DO NOT WRITE IN ANY OTHER WAY SUCH AS TOO HIGH OR TOO LOW.

 

Predictions will be scored as follows:

 

Correct High/Low Prediction - 12000 points

Correct Double/Half Prediction - 25000 points

 

Incorrect High/Low Prediction - Minus 5000 points

Incorrect Double/Half Prediction - Minus 20000 points

 

PART B:

 

Here are 10 questions: 

 

1. Which film will be the lowest grossing?

2. Which film will be the highest grossing?

3. Will any of the films listed make the top 20 domestic?

4. Will at least one film double its predicted gross?

5. Will at least one film fail to reach half of its predicted gross?

 

6. Will the actual combined total gross for the 8 films be higher or lower than the predicted total gross?

7. Percentage wise, what will be boxoffice.com's best prediction?

8. Percentage wise, what will be boxoffice.com's worst prediction?

9. Will at least 3 of these films make $50M?

10. Will any of these films have an OW below $5M?

 

Predictions will be scored as follows:

 

Number of correct answers in Part A x Number of correct answers in Part B x 1000

 

So if you got 6 correct in part A and 4 correct in part B, you will score: 6 x 4 x 1000 = 24,000 points for part B. 

 

(A correct HALF/DOUBLE prediction is worth 3 correct answers in part B  ) 

 

There is no risk of losing points in part B. 

 

 

There is also the option to abstain from this question. If you state that you Abstain in this Thread, you will receive 3000 points

 

Any player who does not predict or state abstain in this thread will lose 5000 points

 

 

The Deadline is Thursday May 4th at 11:59pm
