4815162342 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Yeah Year 1's grosses were haywire. The only thing about Year 2 or 3 is that Dodge City got a bit too good legs. I think True Grit numbers would have been more likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 It was not as bad as some of Rys. Or as the time some black plauge film made like 120M and outgrossed tons of other films. (Or how I made a Will Smith film that made only 95M that was a sci-fi) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Ry had some messed up actuals in the old CAYOM also.

Impact Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 Ry also got upset over a gay drama only making 50 million :lol:He got upset about tons of stuff that would never actaully happen. He also always used excuses for his great legs with films that were older then 20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Soon as I get my computer back I will continue with this. (Sorry my new computer broke. Well it didn't break-it was the motherboard, took it to a repair shop today and they said at earliest tonight or tomorrow. I will probably pick it up tomorrow then) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Based on Hiccup's actuals, here's what I'm guessing for the totals of each film:Alesia - 250mThe Glass Castle - 165mThe Good Die Young - 110mThe Road Home - 90mWenan - 85m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 Or here was one:In year 8 (I think) a DRAMA staring Adam Sandler made 185M, while a sci-fi staring Will Smith made...30 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
