...unless it's a 24-hour clock {nm}

Posted by: yesum on Mar 18, 17:50 in response to Antibody's post Yea, even a broken clock is right twice a day.

True battle this week for #1. Boxoffice, Rope predict "LImitless,' MCA says "Battle LA," (links inside). VictorY Mar 18, 14:27

What happened last weekend when MCA had the worst prediction for BATLA? ;) {nm} Antibody Mar 18, 14:32

Not really, all sites were close and MCA had two exact calls. Just check my stock ranking using them. {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 14:36

MCA was only close on GWRRH at 15M , they predicted mars to make 12M, which is almost 100 percent off 6.8M weekend {nm} karspov Mar 18, 14:45

Seriously??? He had "Rango," and "Adjustment Bureau," exact box office numbers and missed GWRRH by one. That's pretty good. {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 14:53

Predicting box office for movies already in release is relatively easy. Picking openers is where you prove yourself {nm} RogerMore Mar 18, 14:57

"Sure," it is, (wink, wink), whatever you say. {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 14:59

Step 1: figure out a % drop based on genre, target audience, reviews. Step 2: subtract % drop from last week's OW figure. RogerMore Mar 18, 15:03

That's "if," there's a drop, or if its a small one. Good reviewed films flop all the time. That's why I use these sites. They're consistent. {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 15:08

99% of films drop. Everyone can see that. {nm} Antibody Mar 18, 15:11

Wait, no 100 percent??? So "your'e saying there's a chance."...... {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 15:14

Yea, even a broken clock is right twice a day. {nm} Antibody Mar 18, 15:16

You mena "Yeah," right? Always fun, antibody. I could follow them and increase my stocks or follow you and work on spelling. {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 15:18

What's mena? {nm} Antibody Mar 18, 15:21

You mean "mean," right? Always fun to point out spelling errors, while misspelling words at the same time. {nm} lapuckfan Mar 18, 15:22

I was being sarcastic, you guys obviously missed the joke there... {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 15:30

Jokes are usually funny {nm} RazorHawk Mar 18, 15:34

On a final note, when the site is good ,people will notice ,u don't have to worry about the web traffic even if u forget to link for a week {nm} karspov Mar 18, 15:39

...unless it's a 24-hour clock yesum Mar 18, 17:50

LOL... Good one. {nm} VictorY Mar 19, 02:35

Make your decision which of the 3 sites does best and link it , because when the numbers differ weekly, one is bound to be near the actual B {nm} karspov Mar 18, 15:08

I mean actual box office {nm} karspov Mar 18, 15:09

He only cares about shilling his site, and bragging about it when he gets it right. {nm} Antibody Mar 18, 15:09

Who are you referring to? I don't think VictorY is with any of the three sites he linked. {nm} secretstalker Mar 18, 15:17

Victor is the box office predictor of MCA {nm} RazorHawk Mar 18, 15:19

Nice, So why wasn't there bragging about " I was way off on mars , but lucky I had riding hood to talk about how close i was " {nm} karspov Mar 18, 15:24

He is the only one who mentions MCA, a site no one has ever heard of. {nm} Antibody Mar 18, 15:20

Plus he had 2 former mulits that he used to astroturf and promote the MCA site (link inside) RazorHawk Mar 18, 15:23

This again, Razor how am I "multiple accounts," when all your listed entries say "VictorY," NEWS FLASH, I'm VictorY today as I was then. {nm VictorY Mar 19, 02:55

He only ever posts about moviecriticassassins, which no one on the boards had heard of before he started posting RogerMore Mar 18, 15:22

They claim I used to be in a "league," some time ago (yeah, right) and since I first brought up MCA that I'm somehow "astroturf," for them. VictorY Mar 19, 02:50

True. I like to average a couple of them also. If they differ, I usually go halfway between the range between their calls. Works for me. {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 15:10

I'm up over 24 percent this month alone.... Love them... {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 15:11

Okay, so after averaging out on the predictions from the 3 sites this week , what's your own calculated prediction for this 3 openers ? {nm} karspov Mar 18, 15:16

Looks like.... "Limitless," at 15, "Lawyer," at 12, and "Paul," at 10. {nm} VictorY Mar 18, 15:37

"he" is the worst misspelling of "I" that I have ever seen {nm} Bramble Mar 18, 14:57

Oh , I thought you were mentioning about 2 close calls from last week , so it's a cumulative attempt , that will do ;) {nm} karspov Mar 18, 14:59

I think all these sites are trippin'. Everyone is overrating LMTLS. BATLA and RANGO are going to be #1, #2. No opener ovr 14. {nm} lhayes37 Mar 18, 16:47
