WHEW!!!

[JohnnY]

Now I'm the one losing points, I thought it would fall short of 30m.

[HeyItsMoses]

SOTM9

1) Will TDKR make more than 30 mill at midnight? NO

2) Will TDKR make more than 74 mill OD? YES

3) Will TDKR make more than 81 mill OD? YES

4) Will TDKR make more than DH2 OW? YES

5) Will TDKR make more than 190.5 mill OW? NO

No Guts, No Glory

^I really hope that midnight number drops. A part of me even wanted to go back and abstain from it, but it was too late, lol.

I think it'll be complete bullshit if I get questions 2-5 correct, and I miss question one by HALF A MILLION!

So fuckin lame.

[Ariadne]

Just for reference, before he was banned, BKB did say the midnight number was disappointing and wasn't meeting expectations. The post is buried in the weekend thread somewhere.

[Cedarpoint1111]

Guess we won't be seeing 190m weekend so I just lost 20k points. Thank you mother fucking gunman.

[Fake]

Glad I abstained on 190.5M OW question.... but if I had to answer, I'd have answered under 190M anyway.

[Fake]

I really haven't looked at this yet, so I'm not sure how to even score this yet:

Top 12:

1. The Avengers: 460.1 Should be good

2. The Dark Knight Rises: 459.5 should be good

3. Brave: 233.9 Spidey should be 3

4. Spiderman Rebooted: Ted should be 4

5. Men In Black 3: 185 M Mad 3

No more Joe

6. Madagascar 3: 170

7. Snow White: 167.4

8. Ice Age: 155

9. The Expendables 2: 135.5

10. Rock of Ages: 131.1

11. Prometheus: 130.1

My grosses are looking pretty good, some of them.

Ted will probably finish ahead of Mad3.... so you have got Madagascar at the correct spot as well.

YES...I already have that recorded.

[XenoZodiac]

For me it was touch and go. I would have abstained but took a chance and answered "Yes".

[Ariadne]

I literally can't believe what's happening this weekend.

[HeyItsMoses]

Thank God I'm not the only person that's gonna lose 20k points, lol.

[Fake]

No one is getting too many points. Its OD was less than 81M and OW was less than DH2, and I am sure nobody answered under for those.

[Shawn Robbins]

Its been fun, everyone. I'm retiring from the game. Best of luck to you all.

[MovieMan89]

Got 36k points this week. Too bad I forgot to enter all the bonus questions.

[Cedarpoint1111]

22) Will TDKR have a world wide debut of less than 280 mill? NO

[MovieMan89]

22) Will TDKR have a world wide debut of less than 280 mill? NO

Should be Yes. It debuted to less than 250M.

If that's the case then my score is 35k.

[baumer]

This is going to take some time players. Like, I might not be done until tomorrow sometime.

Well you've got my score if that helps. Although I'm sure you'll still check it yourself (understandably).
