baumer Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) This is a joke right? Tell you what film will finish in number 72 spot? Nice one. I'll remember that for the summer game if you guys ever play it. Individuals for you will be, "Tell me the 96th placing film and how much will it gross?" Get it right, 5000 points, get it wrong, -45,000. Do we pm you the answers? Edited November 29, 2012 by baumer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Yeah, I'll tally them and forward Shawn the data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noctis Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Here I was thinking I was going to hear Gopher's voice in a podcast. FML. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Seriously, The Box Office Podcast needs to become a thing. Nerds need something to listen to while they're driving to work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acsc1312 Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Seriously, The Box Office Podcast needs to become a thing. Nerds need something to listen to while they're driving to work... That would be awesome! We could have regular posters record their stuff every week. It'd be weird putting voices with names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I just did these question, so if I find that this was just a trick.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 That would be awesome! We could have regular posters record their stuff every week. It'd be weird putting voices with names. I've always wanted to give it a try! A few people have told me I have a nice voice for radio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I just did these question, so if I find that this was just a trick.... Hmm, that's an idea... That would be awesome! We could have regular posters record their stuff every week. It'd be weird putting voices with names. We could focus on weekend predictions/analysis but also try movie reviews, news, previews... anything really. We already have a forum's worth of guaranteed listeners and enough potential guests to discuss box office with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Let's do it!! I'd love to do reviews/arguments about movies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acsc1312 Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 We should start the weekend The Hobbit comes out... lots to talk about then. Sounds perfect. It would be awesome for you and Baumer to do co-reviews. Lots of inevitable discussion there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Creator Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Wow, good first job so far. Mr. Hosts, are you having them submit them as the partners, or is everyone alone this week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Creator Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Also, this has potential to be the most exciting week of Box Office Alliance history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
