BK007 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Re: NEOI'm not sure if baumer allowed it but technically you can put a film above another in rank and lower in gross. It makes some sense as you can get points differently, but not sure if it's allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Neo didn't predict no. 11 and 12 and Goffe didn't for no. 8)? There must be some penalties, because those who predicted all the spots have the possibility of losing some points.

There will be an incorrect film in that spot and the gross will be 0. So it will go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Prometheus fucked me over. I was thinking it was going to be PG-13 than a week later it was announced it going to be rated R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Which incorrect films will be in that spot?I need to know it or else its sabotaging my whole excel template.If you don't have a film listed in any particular slot, say slot 8, then you will essentially have a gross of 0, so whatever the film in number 8 grosses, you will be off by exactly that amount.

HeyItsMoses Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Prometheus fucked me over. I was thinking it was going to be PG-13 than a week later it was announced it going to be rated R.Hopefully it still crosses $200m! If 300 can do it in March, I'm sure Prometheus can in June, besides, it looks amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laguy03 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I just noticed that I had Battleship in my Top 7 OW of the Summer. All that early tracking had me thinking it would have an OW of $50M+. I think if it had opened in the US before it opened worldwide, it would've had a stronger opening. Also, if the movie had actually turned out to be really good, the results would be much diffierent. There are just certain factors that you can never predict for in box office, and how good a movie will turn out is one of the major ones.

iceroll Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I'm glad I didn't put Battleship or Dark Shadows in my top 12. Where was the list of the movies on the most people's top 12 lists? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
