Explain this to me mate. What does OW and OG mean? Sorry if I'm not hip to your terminology.
Sincerly,

The Terminator 2 got close enough.
Terminator 2 ( OW ) - 32.0
Terminator ( ER ) - 38.0
State of the union is gonna do the oposite.
Triple X ( OW ) - 44.0
State of the Union ( ER ) - 42.0 ( at best )
