50SHD - 94.4 mill (4 Day) RazorHawk Feb 16, 07:32

My projection was off by .4 RazorHawk Feb 16, 07:35

You had it pegged nicely {nm} Dorfman Feb 16, 07:36

that deserves a... islander Feb 16, 07:48

NICE! But you do tend to be pretty accurate. {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 16, 10:08

So had a 12.8 Monday.. not bad considering Sunday had a 60% drop to 14.67. Especially since here on eastcoast everyone was buying milk and Dorfman Feb 16, 07:36

(the 3 day was revised up, so mon est is 9.4) {nm} islander Feb 16, 07:49

oh I didn't realize that {nm} Dorfman Feb 16, 07:51

Kingsman - 43 mill (4 Day) RazorHawk Feb 16, 07:43

Great number as well. It'll make for a nice payday tomorrow. {nm} pennystocks2 Feb 16, 07:48

NIce! Going to see this today before the snow comes in. {nm} Dorfman Feb 16, 07:52

I al most nailed it exact...off but.03 on 50SHD {nm} tatoufan Feb 16, 07:50

So it looks like the traditional adjust method of 3-day *2.7 would've given an additional $13 {nm} tomcat90 Feb 16, 08:15

what does that have to do with anything? {nm} RazorHawk Feb 16, 08:20

Make that $22 if the 3-day was adjusted up to $85 {nm} tomcat90 Feb 16, 08:20

Because maybe it's time to "adjust" the 4-day multiplier to something more in lime like 2.4...This isn't the first time {nm} tomcat90 Feb 16, 08:23

Moviestocks adjust differently on holiday weekends for a reason. Please take time to learn this reason instead of complaining. {nm} RazorHawk Feb 16, 08:31

I'm not complaining, I'm commenting. I thought that's what forums were for. Have a great holiday :) {nm} tomcat90 Feb 16, 08:35

Your 'comment' is that we should change the 4 Day adjust formula for no good reason with a multiplier that you just made up? {nm} RazorHawk Feb 16, 08:39

"we"? {nm} Willroast Feb 16, 09:36

You Betcha it's 'WE'. He was with Me on that Iraqi Helicopter that took Heavy Fire. {nm} Brian Williams, formerly of NBC Feb 16, 10:50

ROTFLMAO {nm} Dorfman Feb 16, 15:28

its ok. the multiplier is about holiday films legs to delist compared to regular weekends {nm} islander Feb 16, 08:54

Yes, the 2.2/4-day takes into account the extra "load" for the holiday. More frontloading with steeper drop {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 16, 08:56

Years ago, the 4-day weekend multiplier was 2.4. However, it was changed to 2.2 because it was a better approximation for the box Roger More Feb 16, 09:50

Always helpful and always classy. The name is More, Roger More. {nm} Willroast Feb 16, 10:03

It's easy to be classy when your pajamas are a silk tuxedo. {nm} Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Feb 16, 18:22
