Year 4 Actuals

[Impact]

Which I left out one of my biggest films on accident on the OS totals in year 3....

[Blankments]

Which one was this?

Assassins, AKA the Edgar Wright movie that I wrote two sentences for. I wish I could redo that one with my new "Write 1500 Words Each Movie." I feel like it could've got decent reviews if I actually bothered to flesh it out.

[Hiccup]

Spark should finish around 140-145M and break even domestically with the budget. It should do 300M+ worldwide thus making profit. I would go for a sequel to Spark for sure. It could do 200M+ easily cuz Spark got great word of mouth and reviews.

Divisions should finish north of 200M, and with a good worldwide haul, it's looking good for making a profit.

Sequel-Multiply?

Sequel-Multiply?

How did you know? I'm actually developing a sequel, but that's not until probably at least year 8.

NO!!!!!!Seriously, don't make a sequel, there is absolutely no reason to. The film ends on the right note (mostly) and a sequel would muck it all up.

I have no clue what the film is. But I had to say that

Well it's not strictly speaking a sequel, it's a prequel. It actually started off as a totally different film project, but then they kinda merged into one. If you guys are all so opposed to it, I can spin the prequel into its only individual universe, and make it a stand-alone movie.

A prequel doesn't make sense either. The film is perfectly self-contained, there's no reason to mess with the background. That's just how I see it, anything we need to now about the past we learned in the opening minutes of Divisions.

[riczhang]

Prometheus?

Well, not really.... It started off as Spielberg, future World War film, but then it just became the prequel, and about the war that destroyed the earth. Haven't really given it too much thought though, quite busy writing Year 5 films.

[Impact]

A spinoff!

[riczhang]

I think I'll turn it back into a Spielberg War film then..... Or I might scrap it completely if some better idea comes along.

[Impact]

Also year 8 is too long to wait probably

I thought that, I just have most of the big films in the other years pretty much planned out. But that plan is gonna change completely by the time year whatever comes along. There's a few films I'm just itching to write right now.

[Impact]

Nice for Duck.

[Ezen Baklattan]

Good for Glass Castle, and decent for Student Film.Anyways, those drops aren't really realistic for labor day weekend. Things should have dropped much less than they did.

Nice for Giant Spiders and Comedians, slightly disappointing for Decker. I was beginning to hope when it had a great second weekend drop, then for some reason collapsed 50% on its third.
