Re: The End of an Era? BOM goes gone girl
If only Robert Stack were still alive, this would make a great episode of Unsolved Mysteries...

Re: The End of an Era? BOM goes gone girl
I think Subers got fired. The top stories seem to have disappeared. I guess he tried to ruin the site (or at least take his content) after he received his marching orders.

Re: The End of an Era? BOM goes gone girl
Hopefully someone new will write the stories if he really is gone. I truly enjoyed reading them each week. Its my motivation to finish my work on Thursdays.

I only really read the stories for data, such as demographics.

Magnus wrote: Jeff Wells has some thoughts on the BOM mystery: http://www.hollywood-elsewhere.com/2014 ... witterfeedbasically, either (1) Ray Subers got fired and shit happen to the site by accident that IMDB closed it down so they could fix it or (2) They really were going to close the site completely and then backtracked after the reaction ...(3) Subers took the news of Gone Girl finally passing Shutter Island in total box office to date on Friday particularly hard. He is a big Scorsee/DiCaprio fan, if you haven't noticed. He was willing to take BOM down forever (for the first time he realized it was all just a house of lies) to freeze SI's lead on the internet for perpetuity. Fortunately, he made a transatlantic call to Dr. Lecter, who talked him off the ledge. Dr. Lecter reminded him, "We may no longer have Shutter Island to lord over those emotional GG groupies, but we will always have the Departed's opening weekend multiplier. GG is just not that hugely crowd pleasing! GG can't match it... " Buttressed by DL's pep talk, RS ended the call prematurely. Revitalized, he started the arduous task of getting BOM back from the brink. However, he didn't hear DL's final query "...Can it?" I think I forgot my morning meds...

It appears everything is back to normal. Subers posted the forecast last night.

Re: The End of an Era? BOM goes gone girl
What a strange sequence of events. Also, he's a goof for refusing to talk about what happened. As mentioned, it will only increase the desire to find out what happened.

Re: The End of an Era? BOM goes gone girl
So... Is this happening, like, for real? The last few weeks of Box Office Mojo have been a DISASTER. This weekend chart has so many mistakes, on top of the craptacular weekend box office summary they posted, in addition to the fact that they took like 2 DAYS to upload the chart in the first place: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/weekend/ch ... =21&p=.htm

Re: The End of an Era? BOM goes gone girl
I guess the site has become an IMDb afterthought? Updated (roughly, with errors) when a staff member of theirs gets around to it.
