1. Bad Boys II - 23 Million
2. POTC - 18 Million
3. T3 - 14 Million
4. Johnny English - 9 Million
5. How To Deal - 7 Million

And for some extremely odd reason, Bad Boys II's estimated weekend gross is 2 million greater than T3's opening weekend gross, and get this, it was in 400 less theatres. Will Smith has a fuckin' huge fan club...
1. BBII - 46.7
2. POTC - 33.257
3. LXG - 10.1
4. Johnny English - 9.324
5. T3 - 9.195...
and at 8. How to Deal - 5.8

Umm...You didn't really think you'd win petrocs, did ya? I don't know how gokou did the results, but they were extremely different from the way I did them, I'd like it if you told me exactly how you did them. (if it's a way worth trying...) See, I basically calculate your top 5 and your correctness....if you go over the actual number, the equation is: actual number/your prediction...if your prediction is smaller than the actual number, the equation is: your prediction/actual number...then I add those 5 numbers together, and that number is then divided by 5 (you predicted 5 movies)...I don't think there's another way to do it except by taking off points if someone doesn't actually guess the order of the top 5 right (so, for example, I had How To Deal as #4, and it ended up at #7 or so, but that's not how you did them, because when I recalculated the numbers of those who got the order correctly, the numbers were different)
1. CczuAzul - 82.57039879 (look at my predictions compared to the actual weekend numbers, I'm NOT cheating/lying! )
2. petrocs - 81.15834452
3. Carson - 80.03160336
4. gokou - 74.81886968
5 + 6 - cjh404 and johnwsmokejr - under 70 %, didn't feel like doing them
I don't mind if you guys do the results, as, it's a pain in the ass to do them anyways, just, I'd like to keep the format similar to the way we've had it since the end of May, and if you guys wanna change it, we'll discuss it...

On to next week, er...tomorrow:

#2 - Spy Kids - 24 Million (sadly)
#3 - POTC - 22 Million
#4 - Bad Boys II - 17 Million

Posted by gokou on 07-24-2003 08:20 PM:

thats what i did, i took the numbers you provided (didn't know that isn't the actual bo) and estimate the people that predicted. you predict how to deal in the top 5 so that count as a ZERO percent.




-------
#1 - Tomb Raider II - 38.9 Million
#2 - Spy Kids - 28.4 Million
#3 - Seabiscuit - 20.5 Million
#4 - pirates ... - 18.5 Million
#5 - Bad Boys II - 17.9 Million
-----------------

Well, we can do that if everyone else agrees...maybe next week will be a better time to try it since we have 3 new movies this week and I seriously doubt that all of us will get the order right. Any of the 3 new movies could top. (well, Seabiscuit isn't opening as wide as the others in 3,000 + theaters, but, Tomb Raider 2 "could" bomb, and so could Spy Kids 3) You guys have to talk.

Posted by CcZ on 07-27-2003 12:14 AM:

Just a note, I'm going on vacation this week and I really don't plan on bringing a calculator with me, so it'd be nice if one of you could do the results. If you look above, I've pretty much explained how to do them...If one of you doesn't want to, well, then start with the predictions for next week (American Pie 3 and Gigli) and I'll catch up later.

Friday's Estimates:
1. Spy Kids - 11.75
2. Tomb Raider - 8.45
3. POTC - 6.76
4. Bad Boys II - 6.73
5. Seabiscuit - 6.31


Posted by JohnWSmokeJr on 07-27-2003 08:21 PM:

what site are you using to get the weekend totals?


Posted by gokou on 07-28-2003 02:36 AM:

yahoo.com
rottentomatoes.com


Posted by Carson on 07-28-2003 02:22 PM:

I'm going to go ahead and calculate using the estimates. If any of the actuals are different, then you'll see a change here. I won't post the exact percentages till the actual numbers come out.. but with the weekend estimates showing, your winner this week is JohnWSmokeJr.

JohnWSmokeJr - 82%
gokou - 80%
petrocs - 79%
CczuAzul - 78%
cjh404 - 75%
Cory - 74%

This has been a very close heat.. so please don't get over-excited till the exact numbers are out

-Carson


Posted by Cory on 07-28-2003 05:07 PM:

Results:
1. Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over - 32.5m

3. Bad Boys II - 22.0m
4. Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life - 21.7m
