Box Office Contest Week 2

[Jedi Master Carr]

Okay same rules as last week pick 1-5 and guess how much money they will make. The only two new movies this weekend is Unfaithful and The New Guy neither looks too promising. Also its not too late to join in the fun if you didn't do it last week you can still do it.

[Jedieb]

Unfaithful, is that about Richard Gere and a couple of Gerbils? :rolleyes

[Jedi Master Carr]

Yeah I think so:p It does look pretty bad like a bad version of Fatal Attraction.

[CMJ]

1. Spiderman 70.63
2. Unfaithful 15.11
3. Scorpion King 6.03
4. Changing Lanes 4.31
5. Murder By Numbers 2.74

[Jedi Master Carr]

Thats a high number, wait a minute wasn't that you prediction for last weekend for Spiderman I mean
this is my guess for now, I might change it some

1 Spiderman 54.56
2 Unfaithfull 12.43
3Scorpion King 5.88
4 New Guy 5.43
5 Changing Lanes 4.14

[CMJ]

LOL..good call it was my guess for last week. I figure I had the LOWEST guess out of the whole board last week...so I'll have the highest this week. The fact that there's little competition this go round helps out. :)

[Jedi Master Carr]

But comic book films usually have huge fall offs, X-Men which most everybody liked dropped almost 60% the next weekend, I think all the Batman movies had steep drops and I know Blade and Blade 2 did plus I don't see huge amounts of repeat buisness. I also think my number is an excellent second weekend for it really, most movies don't open that high.

[CMJ]

Hey man, I didn't say I'd be right...I'm going out on a limb here. :) But I need to if I wanna make up some ground on the leaders...gotta take some chances. ;)

[Jedi Master Carr]

Now maybe I shouldn't have said that people might use that to their advantage :p Hey I might not be right either who knows, I think I was saying that more to justify my guess.

[Marcus Telcontar]

Eh, I'll go with Boxofficeguru for mine.

I'm trying build a website and organise for an International trip... cant think :p

[Jedieb]

1 Spiderman 66.85
2 Unfaithfull 11.2567
3 Scorpion King 6.19847
4 Changing Lanes 4.987664
5 Murder By Numbers 3.6757

[Jedieb]

Hey, I've got an idea. Why don't we follow some of the rules foursomes and duos have to follow in golf. Mainly, if you win a week then you have to post your guesses first. The top three finishers would have to post their guesses in that order. Then we wouldn't have people camping out right towards the end and working off other people's guesses every week.

[Master Yoghurt]

Thanks Yog

[sirdizzy]

holy mackrel the original estimates put me winning #1 again this weekend damn i'm good

[Jedi Master Carr]

Don't get too optomistic I suspect they are off by a couple of million, I can't see it doing well today considering it is Mother's Day and there are three of you with estimates around 70 so any of you could win, so we will just have to wait and see.

[Admiral Lebron]

Next week will be hard...

[Darth23]

The number 4 film this week was Scorpion King.

I picked it as the number three movie.

Did the rules change this week? Last week I belive I was the closest for the number 4 film but I didnt' get the points because I didn't pick it in the right order.

[Jedi Master Carr]

I don't know CMJ must have missed that one I have no clue there I will let CMJ answer that question.

[sirdizzy]

hey ya got points so be happy

[Darth23]

Well either I should get points from last week or someone else shoudl have my Movie 4 points from this week.

I'm assuming that the rules will be the same every week.....

[Jedieb]

When is the deadline for this week? Are we moving it up a day because of AOTC's Thursday opening?

[JMK]

WOOHOO! I'm not in last anymore!! I'll return to my rightful position soon enough though! ;)

[CMJ]

Darth23 was correct.... I also researched some for Marcus.
