BO.com: 'Scream 4' rides premiere buzz To biggest Monday since 'Deathly Hallows' {nm} PVL Admin Apr 12, 20:44

"$20 million+ Friday including midnights still looks to be on the cards"...thats making me feel a lot better, THANKS! {nm} Moviesnob Apr 12, 21:05

Does BoxOffice have a better rep than MTC? They said 27 million all weekend {nm} secretstalker Apr 12, 21:29

well YOU said 40, which is more in line with BO. You better be reliable or I'll cut you {nm} Moviesnob Apr 12, 21:38

That is only an opinion, man. {nm} Antibody Apr 12, 21:32

watch it dude theres a beverage here! {nm} Moviesnob Apr 12, 21:39

That is a misleading headline. SCRM4's actual tweet count Monday is 25% less than PNAC2, which opened to $40M. {nm} Antibody Apr 12, 21:32

lol. How's that misleading. Since Deathly Hallows...which came out last? {nm} horlicks Apr 12, 22:11

You're smarter than that. It doesn't tell the story. Shouldn't the tweet counts of a horror sequel be more comparable to another horror seq Antibody Apr 12, 22:42

Doesn't make it incorrect. Its a factual statement. horlicks Apr 12, 23:01

It can be factual AND misleading at the same time. From a certain point of view, as old ben kenobi would say. {nm} Paul2k Apr 12, 23:04

It's a fact that Scream4 had the biggest Monday since Deathly Hollows.. karspov Apr 12, 23:21

Be weary of a single point analysis. horlicks Apr 12, 23:34

No problem Horlicks, because normally I pay loads of attention on your prediction site to decide on how the weekly openers will do.. karspov Apr 12, 23:48

Do you have evidence that genre matters in tweet analysis? ty97 Apr 12, 23:38

Finding ratios between tweet counts and box office according to genre/audience is the whole point of BOP's tweet analysis {nm} RogerMore Apr 13, 07:12

Did you even read the article before mouthing off? Antibody Apr 13, 10:10

I did, my statement stands. You are the moderator here, and have the power associated with that. ty97 Apr 13, 16:33

I don't know much about the Scream franchise, not being a fan of horror movies JohnTEQP Apr 12, 23:10

MTC is a force to be reckon with, with a few misses here and there,but alot of people here still have loads of confidence on its predictions {nm} karspov Apr 12, 23:23

Did someone already post MTC for this weekend? I can't seem to find them. {nm} petz Apr 13, 00:22

I loved it.. I made money shorting it when it started to drop. (inside) winstonman78 Apr 13, 05:11

And yeah the price is gonna drop like a bomb when it's been trading for a 37mil ow and MTC says 27. winstonman78 Apr 13, 05:14

Unless scream actually ends out making 40+ million... ;) jeankie Apr 13, 06:20

yah. and i can always dump the put stock if im making more than what its worth even if it did less than 40. winstonman78 Apr 13, 06:39

IMO the call for scream is pretty cheap and seems like low risk incase it does make 40mil. {nm} winstonman78 Apr 13, 06:47
