There was no intent to mislead... but rewriting the information into a different format makes the information misleading

Posted by: RazorHawk on Dec 18, 09:16 in response to Chest Rockwell's post The $24.5m figure is well-reported here. Seeing the...

Post the news that is being reported and in the inner message break it down and/or comment on it however you like.


Veteran players are used to the industry standard way of reporting the numbers (Tues nite counted with midnights and Wednesday numbers).Ā  Posting a $13.26 Wednesday number is telling OlegMax and Antibody that Lord Of The Rings 2 (The Two Towers) did 26mill while Hobbit 3 opening on the same date did $13.26 mill.

Correct post would be:

Hobbit 3 - 24.46mill Weds (11.2 Tues early show/13.26 Wednesday)

Hobbit 3 - $11.2m Tues + $13.26m Wed MattW Dec 18, 08:14

It's $24.46M Wed. Evening shows are the nex midnight and part of the next day. Antibody Dec 18, 08:26

no, its not. 24.46 includes Tuesday previews Oleg Max Dec 18, 08:30

hmm, maybe I misread the post, in any case 24.46 is total thus far, Tues + Wed... {nm} Oleg Max Dec 18, 08:31

Translation: Evening shows (Tues #s) are reported with midnight and opening day #s and shouldnt be posted seperate by MattW {nm} RazorHawk Dec 18, 08:45

I was trying to add some value to the report but I guess I'll avoid that in the future. MattW Dec 18, 09:29

Post whatever movie ideas you have. There's only one forum moderator here and it's not RH. But do expect other opinions. Just don't fricnfractal Dec 18, 09:48

Thanks for the Postings. Keep it up. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2014 Dec 18, 10:14

Keep up the posting MattW. We all post stuff that others don't care for on here. {nm} Dorfman Dec 18, 10:16

Yeah Matt - don't give it a 2nd thought - your posts add value. Even Oleg Max gets scrubbed and stuff {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Dec 18, 12:18

BOG: "$24.5M opening day for #HobbitBattleOfFiveArmies w/ almost half coming from TUE night..." RazorHawk Dec 18, 08:32

Using LOTR1 5 days/Wed = $88.1M LOTR2 $95.2M LOTR1 $100.9M {nm} Antibody Dec 18, 08:36

First one is LOTR3 {nm} Antibody Dec 18, 08:38

show your math? :) {nm} Oleg Max Dec 18, 08:39

That's a reasonable formatting request. Perhaps suggesting that is better than accusing him of being "misleading." IMHO. Chest Rockwell Dec 18, 09:18

Ah crap. This was supposed to be down below. Sorry. {nm} Chest Rockwell Dec 18, 09:19

I know they're counted as part of wed's official number, but I think separating them out gives a better idea of how the movie is doing. {nm} MattW Dec 18, 08:30

It's misleading. The evening show has been part of the next day for over a year now. {nm} Antibody Dec 18, 08:41

It's not really. We know the total and that post showed the breakdown. No harm in that. {nm} Chest Rockwell Dec 18, 08:51

Every site is reporting Wed as $24.6M including his link. He should have included the Tue in (). {nm} Antibody Dec 18, 08:55

The $24.5m figure is well-reported here. Seeing the Tue/Weds breakdown is useful for predicting Thurs. There was no intent to mislead. {nm} Chest Rockwell Dec 18, 09:03

the first report of 24.5 was my correction. He actually changed the number from the linked source. Loike I said, use (). {nm} Antibody Dec 18, 09:07

Misleading - Hogwash. Some 'Veteran' Players know how to use a Calculator. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2014 Dec 18, 10:07

Cal q later? Whats that ;) {nm} Dorfman Dec 18, 10:17

You are not my type... please stop following (stalking) me thread to thread, board to board... I am not interested {nm} RazorHawk Dec 18, 10:32

Please stop using 'Misleading' when it is not Misleading. No Interest in ever Following you. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2014 Dec 18, 10:48

Please... stop... I dont want you to buy me a Strawberry Sundae... I dont want you to Fed-Ex me anything.... {nm} RazorHawk Dec 18, 11:36
