@moviesnob/rogermore - Advice requested (attempt #2)

Posted by: PVL Admin (a.k.a Rocket123) on Feb 08, 16:29

Here's what I am working with at the moment re: ratio normalization. What dates would you use for summer and christmas? Is there anything else you think I am missing?

TIA

I think Roger's advice about looking at the data and knowing what we know (high delist values over winter holidays) Moviesnob Feb 08, 20:37

Thank you for the advice. You make a lot of good points and I need to think this through further. I like the idea about layering in PVL Admin Feb 08, 21:48

Thanksgiving releases tend to have poor legs by delist, though that doesn't mean poor legs overall. RogerMore Feb 09, 06:50

ah, so just for that week, it would make sense to have a sep genre for the twilights & the harry potters (probably "blockbusters") Moviesnob Feb 09, 08:20

Building on Moviesnob's point, you may want to structure this by keeping the broad categories and then subdividing them based on results. RogerMore Feb 09, 07:10
