SOTM 5

 

This is for domestic only, the gross is for domestic only.

 

Lady in the Water:  42.2M

The Happening:  64.5M

Unbreakable:  95.0

The Village:  114.2M

 

Remember, you are picking what film it will finish closest to in gross.  Just because it might pass the gross of a certain film, does not mean that it doesn't finish closest to that film.  Let's say you choose The Village and it finishes with 104 mill, you would be wrong.  It needs 104.5 mill to finish closer to The Village.  So get your calculators out and figure it out.

 

Choose correctly (and there will only be one right answer), 15,000

Choose the wrong answer -7000 points

 

Choose to abstain:  2000 points

 

Due by Sunday June 9th at 6pm

[baumer]

1) Will MOS make more than 7.5 mill at midnight? yes
2) Will MOS make more than 42 mill OD? yes
3) Will MOS make more than 47.5 mill OD?yes
4) Will MOS make more than 98.5 mill OW? yes
5) Will MOS make more than 110 mill OW? yes

Each part you go for is worth 8000 if correct.
Each part you go for and guess incorrectly will cost you 5000 points.
If you choose to abstain from all five questions, you will receive 8000 points.
If you choose to answer all five questions, you must be correct on all five questions. There is no bonus for getting all five correct as you get 40,000, which is tied for the biggest SOTM amount ever given out. However if you get even one wrong, you will lose 20,000 points. The only way you can lose more is if you go for all five and answer all five incorrectly, that would cost you 25,000 points.
