Avatar: The Way of Water -- Domestic Opening Weekend Contest!!

[XXR vs XXR]

Oel Ngati Kameie

 

It's almost time for the most anticipated weekend in BOT history! No matter which side of the fence you fall on, this coming weekend has been over 10 years in the making. To celebrate Avatar: The Way of Water finally being released, we're gonna have ourselves a contest 

 

The contest is simple! All you have to do is predict the domestic opening weekend total  

Whomever is closest to the actual, will win one month of premium on the BOT Forum. 

 

 

 

Rules & Notes

1. Leave a comment with your domestic opening weekend prediction. 
2. You can edit or change your prediction, but if you predict more than once (in separate comments) I will use the LAST comment you posted with numbers.
3. You can go over or under, it only matters who is the fewest dollars away.
4. Try to be as accurate as possible to prevent ties (full 9 digits).
5. In the event of a tie, the tied users will go another round and predict the 2nd domestic weekend. 
6. Predictions will close at 12PM CST - Thursday, December 15th.

Damn, you beat me to this number...sigh.

 

Okay, let me go $18 Thurs x 8x for $144M to let you win anything below..

 

For the exact number, I'll put in Thor's OW - $144,165,107.  Same Disney Caucasian-skewing older fans show up - but it struggles to appeal outside of the corporate and fan demos (of Avatar and Cameron)...

 

EDIT: Do not consider this number, but Caucasian-older-skewing-long-awaited sequel with 3 good days of box office (aka into a Monday holiday) made $126,707,459 on 3 day OW earlier this year - it would be hilarious if they matched...

I appreciate you not going Price is Right on me

I was tempted to go lower, too, but I promise I won't change my number b/c I'd rather you win, so I'm giving ALL the low:)...

 

EDIT: And now Capt stole the low from you:).  We were too convincing!

Maybe not the best thread to ask but does that mean you see a higher chance OD is <$18m than the IM being > x8 ? Wondering since you said elsewhere that you expect a $18m but also that there are good signs for the IM.
