baumer Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 True true. I skimmed TA weekend thread from last year, and I have to say I'm very impressed with this place This place is like catnip for felines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I don't see any problem with being in the extreme either way. We're not betting here, so there's no actual loss, and its not that hard to eat your crow if you're way off in either direction. Or French-kiss your dog and post is on Youtube as a proof. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 And Hobbit 2 will bring the fishnets RAGE. I can't wait. You mean shayhiri`s rage when TA Effect loses its effect on Floppit:DoA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pensivepenguin Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I predicted 156M, which I thought was a very sensible number. Admittedly, I wanted to be wrong in that I wanted it to have done better. So when people were predicting 170M+, I was thinking to myself "You're being absolutely ridiculous with that number and you'll be sorely disappointed ... but still, I kinda hope you're right." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I disagree...going bullish is fine...just be decent enough to eat your crow if and when u are wrong. Completely agree. Bullish predictions bring out the best of both sides and that is how you get epic threads. TA thread last year was pure awesome with Rth's legend grew like none before. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Meltdowns here are a lot more fun than SHH, huh? Meltdowns on SHH are terrible, unreadable trainwrecks. Meltdowns here are amazing 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Another valuable lesson on why not to over predict movies. $150M is still a great number, but its way down from the $170-180M predictions around here.Rule 1 of box office: Never go bullish unless you really do have balls of steel. Overpredicting is what makes this forum tick. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
