Blankments Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I should've given Dogs of Babel a re-release in December; probably would push it to $100M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 I consider re-releases sometimes in later weekends... like when a movie gets put into the dollar theaters after a month or so, it gets a boost. Usually not a big difference in the long run but it is something.And I promise I didn't intentionally make any movie flop or succeed. I took the projections from the Part 2 and made a range based on those and rolled virtual D20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Okay-I am waiting for the year where the number one film will NOT be a sci-fi or fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Creator Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I wonder when totals will be up? No rush though.Prediction: Starcraft wins dom. Spellforce OS.Cameron is HUGE overseas. I'd be disappointed if he didn't win overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Well fantasies tend to do better then sci-fi's OS hense why I'm guessing that.Now come on Creator don't be upset if you don't win the year-you won last year ;)I really hope we can have a year though where no sci fi or fantasy wins soon...

The Creator Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Dawn is both a fantasy and a sci-fi...and a drama, an epic, a war film, a romance, and a character study. It's multi-genre. That sells overseas, and Cameron sells overseas. Boom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe too much? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I honestly think Spellforce has a better chance than Dawn OS. Spellforce appeals to everyone. Dawn appears to a bout, but not everyone.I'm still disgusted about DOM, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Meh, it would have been a lot of fun if Dawn were a crazy breakout. :PIf it's any consolation, it's guaranteed to be nominated for a crapload of oscars, including BP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electric Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 Totals will be delayed until I do them... I'm not sure how exactly weekdays are calculated, isn't it like 1.5* the weekened totals on average, with some changes for summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how exactly weekdays are calculated, isn't it like 1.5* the weekened totals on average, with some changes for summerNo, weekdays generally are about 1/3 of weekends in the summer, maybe a bit more, about 1/3.2-3.3 in most other months, with super-inflated weekdays in the Christmas/New Year's period. Event films skew a bit higher than this ratio.Also children/family films generally have deflated weekdays compared to films skewing older.

Impact Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Yeah it always depends on the time of year. I remember telling someone one year the reason why there September film made less was due to weekdays being at the lowest during that time of year. That is something I have really gotten quite well at during all these years is weekdays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Affair should hit 100m, it was around 80m after New Years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Is that how you guys do weekdays? I was thinking that you had to match up the movie with a rough real life match to figure out the total gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Well for example-in September a film might make about 20% of its weekly gross on weekdays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
