Box Office Contest Week 5

[Jedi Master Carr]

Well its that time again this is a normal week just get your guesses in by 9AM on Saturday June 1. Two new movies open this week Sum of All Fears and Undercover Brother not sure on screen counts might post them to help you out.

[CMJ]

Hmmmm I think I'll wait to see how the holdovers did today before I make predictions.

[Jedi Master Carr]

I know I think I might wait till tomorrow, I think voting first is been bad. I might wait till some of the predictions come or at least the screen counts.

[CMJ]

Yeah we usually go first...and we're tied for 6th. ;)

[Jedi Master Carr]

yeah and I have been noticing that Jedieb and JMK post right after us and they are doing about the same, I think they are going by our guesses which looks like is a bad idea. :p

[JMK]

Like I care! I'm a token participant! I hope to eventually play the role of spoiler and steal some badly needed points from someone! :wings

[Jedi Master Carr]

hey you still could win anything is possible.

[dbn]

Attack of the Clones: 37.5 million.
SOAF: 28.4 million
Spider-turd: 25.5 million
UB: 25.3 million
Insomina: 17.5 million

[Jedi Master Carr]

So your the lucky one to go first :p I think I will still wait, I want to see some exact screen counts I am hoping Lee or Box Office Mojo has them up soon, I will look at their predictions, but I am not sure they will help on SOAF.

[Jedieb]

I take full responsibility for my ineptitude!!! :x

[CMJ]

LOL Eb. I remember you started slowly last summer and finished near the top with a late charge.

[Jedi Master Carr]

Well here are some predictions take them as you will
Lee has
Sum of all fears 28
SW 25
SM 20
Insomina 13
Spirt 11
UB 10

Box office Guru is even closer
Sum 28
SW 27
SM 18
UB 15
Insomia 14
Spirt 11

Box office Mojo is not up yet but they do have the screen counts up
they are
Sum of all Fears 3183 (only 18 more than SW)
Undercover Brother 2,167

Those bottom numbers will help more, personally I have no clue what to pick still this is going to be tough. Even Box office Guru is not sure they say if SOAF can overcome the nuclear bomb/terrorist stuff it will make 28M that shows there is a lot of doubt in the air.

[Jedi Master Carr]

I am actually going to go against SW here (hey I have been wrong the whole time so I might be wrong again
1 Sum of All Fears 31.04
2 SW AOTC 29.75
3 Spiderman 17.54
4 Insomia 16.25
5 Undercover Brother 14.46

I might change it I haven't decided yet but I wanted to put something down.

[JMK]

AotC 34.54
SOAF 29.90
Spider Man 23.21
Undercover Brother 19.87
Insomnia 13.49

Mark my words! I will do better this week! (How could I do worse?):x

[Quadinaros]

Maybe I misunderstand the rules, but it seems my $24.01 prediction for AOTC should have won #2 film. Master Yoghurt predicted $24.72. :\

[CMJ]

Hmmm lemme double check...

It should be corrected...

[Quadinaros]

Danka.

Don't stop me now. I'm on a roooooool :rollin

[Admiral Lebron]

YAY! My lead increases by 20 and I feel a lot relieved. Good thing for checking your numbers Mr. Quadinaros.

[CMJ]

Yeah, but the pack seems to be inching a bit closer Lebron. You're not home free yet. :)

[Admiral Lebron]

As long as the force is with me I will win! :) Although, honestly each week I am scared poo-less of making the numbers and I take my time doing it. And then, friday through monday I am worried and scared and I have freak outs. And then, when I finally see the Top five right I am mortified knowing that in the next scroll I'll see where I stand. Quite an emotional experience.

[CMJ]

Damn dude...this isn't the lottery or anything. ;)

[JMK]

It isn't????? Then what the hell am I playing for??? :p

Oh yeah, someone's gotta pull up the rear!

[Master Yoghurt]

Btw, I will be gone for a few days, so I dont know if I will have time to check the Box Office. Could someone please post my prediction for next weekend using the numbers at Lee's movie info?

When it updates (probably thursday), it should be found here:

http://www.leesmovieinfo.com/Predictions.html

It would be greatly appreciated :)

[Jedi Master Carr]

Sure I will, also it shows how bad this week was, a lot of people really mixed the movies up, nobody got all 5 in row, a few got 3 in a row, but we all overestimated Insomia, and underestimated Spirt.

[Master Yoghurt]

Thanks :)

Yeah, there were a lot of messed up predictions. I messed up too, although I had one of the more accurate forecasts. If I posted more conservative/pesimistic predictions (except SOAF), I could perhaps done a sweep. Also should have seen Spirit taking the 5'th spot concidering it was just behind Insomnia on weekdays. Being animation, it does better on weekends.

Anyway, points are points. 'Allmost' does not help my chances :rolleyes

[Jedi Master Carr]

Well, I didn't do much better the only reason I won the most points was because I got the SOAF right otherwise I would have done terrible. Also I forgot to mention, JMK, as long as Marcus doesn't post a prediction again you won't be last :)
