So based on the IM math of the above post GIJOE should adjust to at least (at least) $292.11 Oh man the money just doesn't get any easier

Posted by: H-Mogul on Aug 06, 13:50 in response to H-Mogul's post Looking at the inner message I can't help but wonder if...

then that. This is a NUCLEAR long. It just doesn't get any better then that. :)

Can GIJOE open to Potter numbers sure, anything can happen. Give people a movie they want to see and they will show up. Is it likely to open to Potter numbers no. But just remember no movie had opened in February to 58 million until Hannibal opened, the top movie up until then was Scream 3 at just under $40 million. Funny what numbers stick in your head. In the real world stuff does surprise. :)

See, I can make the numbers show anything I pretty much want when all I do is a single point analyse and use numbers that haven't been put into context. Percentages mean nothing if you don't know what they are a percentage of and since Fandango doesn't give their sales numbers it's pretty much useless in game terms.

Secondly, I've never seen anybody that does numbers ever show a correlation of Fandango percentages and actual BO receipts. And as far as I know there isn't one. It's an interesting number put out by Fandango but as far as game useage goes it does nothing.

Just remember to read everything here with a grain (well maybe a pound) of salt. Just because something is posted doesn't make it so. That's why I post  a "Your mileage may vary warning when I do numbers" Look at  think about it come to your own conclusions as to yeah he seems to be right or there goes H again talking out of his a**. but like I showed above there are statistics, dam* statistics and my tax returns err I mean people that post extrapolations. :)

In mIRC I don't show the math I just post the number, but the people I chat with they do the math (you will also see them in the top 10 weekly gainers regularly) if we differ substantially then we pull out the math. It's a pain in the **** to type out the math for no reason. Here I can't do that. :))))-

And on hsxticker over on EFNet over on mIRC we do substantially more movie analyse then ever gets posted here. It tends to go in spurts but everybody is welcome to join the channel. Plus we then to post that stuff there first, along with news. We like to make our friends richer. Of course they still have to be around.

The return of the Fandango ticket sales reports! GIJOE at 39% (not great)... secretstalker Aug 06, 09:39

The more previews I see, the worse it looks. {nm} Hooray360 Aug 06, 09:42

If 39% equals "not great", what does JULIA's 10% translate to? Ouch. {nm} Carlion Aug 06, 10:15

JULIE is not a movie that will generate strong presales. Meryl Streep has a solid summer track in counter programming {nm} gogreen Aug 06, 10:56

It depends on hoy you look at it. If HPOT6 does 12M and you do a simple math you get a 50M OW for GIJOE wich is what I think it will do {nm} gogreen Aug 06, 10:40

I like your way of thinking {nm} Carlion Aug 06, 10:49

39% of what? Another one of these no context posts that D.Mac fails to call you on. But I see that GIJOE has dropped $5 since this post so H-Mogul Aug 06, 12:11

Yeah .. it's seem to me that it is okay to post Fandago percentages but let the reader interpret the meaning. Once SS 'decides' it's grammar Aug 06, 12:27

Note: I had to copy the inner message into Notepad to be able to read it!!! {nm} grammar Aug 06, 12:23

It also lacks a link. So that people can go and check for them selves. Or check for later back later to see if there are any changes.Nothing H-Mogul Aug 06, 12:46

Looking at the inner message I can't help but wonder if GIJOE's opening BO will be 39% higher then HPOT6. If we take off H-Mogul Aug 06, 13:07

So based on the IM math of the above post GIJOE should adjust to at least (at least) $292.11 Oh man the money just doesn't get any easier H-Mogul Aug 06, 13:50
