PLAYERS:

There may be more preseason bonus questions added before the start of the game. It is doubtful, but I hold the right to add a question if it seems right.

Bonus Question of all Bonus Questions:

This is a four parter:

1) Will TDKR make at least 500 million domestically? YES

2) Will TDKR make more than 580 million internationally? YES

3) Will TDKR do at least 40 million for midnights? NO

4)) Will TDKR make at least 1.1 billion WW? YES

Scoring: All questions you answer correctly are worth 7000 points. You can go for as many as you like.

Here is the catch: Every answer you call incorrectly you lose 10,000 points.

There are no points for abstaining, with one caveat down below. ***

Even more bonus and more treachery:

If you go 4/4 you get a 28,000 point bonus. So this means you will get a total of 56,000 points for this question (7000X4 plus 28,000 point bonus)

However, if you go for all 4 you must get all four correct. If you get even one incorrect, you will lose 15,000 points. So what this means is, if you go for all four and even if you get 3/4 correct, not only will you NOT get the 11,000 but you will lose a full 15,000 points.

This question is worth a lot of points for those ballsy enough to go for all 4, but it will kick your ass if you get too cocky.

Remember, you don't have to answer any of them. Or you can answer as little as you want. It's totally up to you.

You can choose to go for as many or as little as you want.

***CAVEAT***

If you choose to abstain from all 4, you will get 5000 for doing so.

You must tell me if you are abstaining.

NEW QUESTION:

This is a four part question. Again, you have choices.

Choice A, answer any part of the question. Each answer you get correct you will receive 7000 points. Each answer you get wrong, you will lose 7000 points. If you go for all four parts of the question, you must get all four parts correct. If you get even one wrong after going for it all, you will lose 7,000 points. You can go for all of it, none of it and some of it. Choice is yours.

17)

A) Will any film listed as a horror film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer? Yes

Will any film listed as a horror film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 32.5 mill? Yes

C) Will any film listed as a horror film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 43%? Yes

D) Will any film listed as a horror film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 10 mill? Yes

Get any question right: 7000

Get any question wrong: -7000

Abstain from all four questions: 5000

Go for all four, and get all four correct not only will you get the 28,000, you get a bonus of 28,000. But you must go for all four to qualify for the bonus

First, more than one film could cross the 100 mill mark at the same time. If that happens, both/either films will be the correct answers.Your answer is going to be in days. So if you think Prometheus will do it the quickest, in say 4 days, you will put Prometheus, 4 days (there is no deduction for putting the incorrect amount of days). Now, if Prometheus and another film cross in 4 days, you will still get full points for calling the correct film.Points:8000: Call the correct film to do so.-5000: call the incorrect film10,000: say none of these films will cross 100 mill this summer15,000: say all of these films will cross 100 mill this summer3000: abstainFor a 7000 point bonus, if you call the correct film, tell me the final gross of that film this summer. Get within 10 mill of the finish to get the bonus. There is no penalty for being off more than 10 mill.Good luck.This is due Wednesday May 2nd at 11:59 pm.

Scoring: All questions you answer correctly are worth 7000 points. You can go for as many as you like.

Here is the catch: Every answer you call incorrectly you lose 10,000 points.

There are no points for abstaining, with one caveat down below. ***

Even more bonus and more treachery:

If you go 4/4 you get a 28,000 point bonus. So this means you will get a total of 56,000 points for this question (7000X4 plus 28,000 point bonus)

However, if you go for all 4 you must get all four correct. If you get even one incorrect, you will lose 15,000 points. So what this means is, if you go for all four and even if you get 3/4 correct, not only will you NOT get the 11,000 but you will lose a full 15,000 points.

This question is worth a lot of points for those ballsy enough to go for all 4, but it will kick your ass if you get too cocky.

Remember, you don't have to answer any of them. Or you can answer as little as you want. It's totally up to you.

You can choose to go for as many or as little as you want.

***CAVEAT***

If you choose to abstain from all 4, you will get 5000 for doing so.

You must tell me if you are abstaining.

1. NO

2. NO

3. NO

17. This is a four part question. Again, you have choices.

Choice A, answer any part of the question. Each answer you get correct you will receive 7000 points. Each answer you get wrong, you will lose 7000 points. If you go for all four parts of the question, you must get all four parts correct. If you get even one wrong after going for it all, you will lose 7,000 points. You can go for all of it, none of it and some of it. Choice is yours.

A) Will any film listed as a horror film by boxofficemojo.com gross more than 100 million dollars this summer?

B. Will any film listed as a horror film by boxofficemojo.com open to more than 32.5 mill?

C) Will any film listed as a horror film by boxofficemojo.com have a second weekend drop of less than 43%?

D) Will any film listed as a horror film by boxofficemojo.com have an opening day of more than 10 mill?

Get any question right: 7000

Get any question wrong: -7000

Abstain from all four questions: 5000

Go for all four, and get all four correct not only will you get the 28,000, you get a bonus of 28,000. But you must go for all four to qualify for the bonus

A. NO

B. YES

D. YES

I edited ROA's gross from 130 M to 125 M B. If it's late, I'll use the 130 M original predict. I highlighted it with red.
