Nikki Finke OW question...

Posted by: Willroast on Jun 13, 16:34

So I'm new to the party on Finke as I hadn't heard of her before maybe a month or two ago. I've read a few articles now and have a general idea of her history and what she does. Mosly it seems that she dishes dirt on Hollywood folks which, as yesterday's movement on several stocks she mentioned, seems to translate well into evaluating future possibilities with films.

However I have not found much indicating what her track record is like when it comes to Box Office Opening Weekends. Considering that it appears that she often writes with a very self-serving agenda (bashing folks who "wrong" her and praising those that subjigate), does the historically let her agenda influence her OW predictions? I'm already decided on this weekend's openers so I'm not speaking to any of them but I am wondering if her website is one that I should take into consideration in the future for OWs in addition to whatever juicy rumors she may post.

Thanks.
