I really need to step up my game. I like doing this at work, but the forums NEVER work there anymore and I rush on Thursdays to get answers in.

[Dav]

Dammit I missed this weeks questions.

[baumer]

I'll give you guys make up questions down the road a bit. But with individs on the go, it'll have to take a backseat for a bit.

[kayumanggi]

Buddy...I even had your name in the headline of the thread

I really didn't see it. But it's ok.

[rockNrollaDIM]

I bombed this week. Lol

[CJohn]

Just Rock of Ages and Thats My Bomb fucking my game...

[HeyItsMoses]

:lol:

[Jake Gittes]

Well I didn't completely crash and burn this week. Got 10/12, that'll hold unless The Intouchables increases with actuals or Chernobyl gets fudged with ROA's money, could happen, but I doubt it. Was insanely happy when I saw Battleship decreasing less than 50% - it had a severe theater loss but I counted on it receiving a bit of help on Father's Day just like MIB3 and Avengers.I almost totally blew the bonuses though - TA Sunday estimate is close to my prediction ($1,419.8b vs $1,421b) and maybe M3 will make exactly $55m foreign this weekend, but as far as spots go, I missed 5 (like most people, probably; SW and TMB could swap positions with actuals, but it seems unlikely), 9 and 11 (unless BS and Dictator change places). I put Dark Shadows in #14, and it could end up right there, but it's small consolation

[Jake Gittes]

CJohn and Michael Scott both predicted exactly $1,420b in Bonus 1... and they are both the closest.

[iceroll]

Awful week for me

[MovieMan89]

If Chernobyl dropped more than 60% when actuals are released tomorrow I just had my first perfect week!

[CJohn]

This year is really going bad for me...

[MovieMan89]

This year is really going bad for me...

What sucks is it's going great for me in the weekly and SOTM questions, but I have like no chance at winning because my top 12 is totally screwed at this point.

[iceroll]

My top 12 is my only chance, and that's if Ted and Bourne make it.

No rush man. I know how hectic this game can be.

2) Will Rock of Ages finish number 3? NO

That's wrong.

[iceroll]

Damn it I would have gotten bonus 2 if you used the actual #, I had 276m exactly . Why are estimates used again?

[baumer]

Damn it I would have gotten bonus 2 if you used the actual #, I had 276m exactly . Why are estimates used again?

Because anytime there is a question that involves international numbers, there are too many fluctuations come Monday. China is famous for fudging the numbers in ways that makes Puerto Rico look like an accountant for the Canadian Government doing a personal tax audit. There is too much fudging and too many variables. So I use the estimate from the Sunday number, that doesn't change.

[junkshop36]

Damn, even with Fathers day, I didn't think BS would drop that well. Kept me from getting all the questions right. Oh well, still one of my better weeks. Unfortunately, I think I'm already too far behind. My top 12 isn't going to help and stupid Cheyrnoble Diaries is going to screw me on SOTM 4. Have no idea why I said YES to it hitting 20m.
