I entered estimates using a 2.7 multiplier of Friday BOM numbers. At least half of these numbers are probably too optimistic, though, because I've noticed some movies don't even get a 2.5 multiplier on the similar 2010 weekend.

edit: changed to 2.6 multiplier, probably more realistic for most, though hopefully Star Wars stays above 90 :p

Not sure why BOT didn't include The Forest in their predictions. Probably because they suck.

Not sure where Scottie went, but Wildbill looks to have transitioned over to the BOT derby. But whatever.

I was in Florida. Almost, I am retiring from predicting the derby. I am putting full focus on editing film project.

The BOT derby guy "has to research" something before declaring me the winner.

What a group they have over there.

Followed up a great last two weeks with a very average week this week. Disappointing. Rolling Thunder looks like the winner, pending a few films.

Congrats, Rolling Thunder! I should've played it safer with The Forest; that was the main derby killer.

Thanks. I really blew it with Ride Along 2. Not even close.

Also, I didn't notice this, but I've won 3 times this year, lol.

Probably helps that we only have about a dozen players though...

There doesn't seem to be any statistical difference between when I go with my gut with little thought into it and when I break out the calculator. :)

What indicators do you guys use for your predictions, especially the bottom half of the top ten? I keep getting reamed with the smaller grosses.

Author:  Chippy [ Mon Apr 18, 2016 9:58 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread

I try to compare previous weekends to see how smaller films dropped, trying to find a similar movie. But I don't do great on them either...

Post subject:  Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread

Chippy - I'm going to try this again and this time attempt to get a decent score on the smaller holdovers. Pray for me. #nervous.

Holdover heavy week, good luck!
