Yeah, I went too low on A Lot Like Love, and I'll update that. I don't think it's significantly low though, since it certainly won't have a multiplier of close to 3. The movies in the genre, such as Fever Pitch, has an opening IM of 2.7-2.8.

I used last weekend's multiplier for Sahara and round up, so that should be close.

I don't see why Kung Fu Hustle should have a multiplier lower than its previous two weekends'.

Yeah, I got killed by Hustle and Love, but got two 100%s and was within .1 million of 100% for two more movies. Good thing I went low with King's Ransom.

Look at its first Saturday. It increased only 18%. This is like a second opening, so it should be similar. But I was way underpredicting its Sunday gross. I think it will be around $6.9 - $7.1 million.

With xiayun's projections: 87.80%
With MG Casey's projections: 87.05%
With Vovanik's projections: 89.08%
Zingaling's projections: 88.85%

87% or more with all different projections. Looks good for estimates & actuals, unless EVERYONE is off with projections.

PEACE, Mike

The scores of Mike and I are close. Great job, Mike.

Thanks! You too!

PEACE, Mike

did the projections get updated???

Yeah.

ah ok; will re calculate later then

I think I did okay considering a 0% on King's Ransom.

you did very well considering Kings Ransom Amos; which screwed me right over.

With mine(my?) projections I have 98.45%.

Kinda useless to do with others, isn't it? As mine (my) will be much closer to the truth.


60%-70% :-(
