Was Still Alice available in the game?

No, it wasn't. Someone had it in the FY Draft league. Changing now.

With It's All So Quiet bombing, the fifth film in the Top 5 has to be either Woman in Black 2 or Spare Parts. Probably Spare Parts.

No word yet on Spare Parts.

[Chienfantome]

And so, that makes 20 PTA points for American Sniper, in four weekends. 1st every weekend since its release.

[Shrykespeare]

The March movies have been added to the game site, except for:

Run All Night (just moved to replace In The Heart of the Sea)
Paranormal Activity: Ghost Dimension

[W]

Game-wise we use the 4-day, right?

And Deadline has Spare Pants up from when first reported. $1.37 M 3-day, $1.7 M 4-day in 440 theaters.

[empire13]

I think the game always uses 3 day totals.

[Shrykespeare]

Yeah, it's 3-day. Always has been.

[Chienfantome]

Thanks for the update Shryke !
I'll enjoy first place in Ultimate while it lasts (it won't).

[undeadmonkey]

wonder how many people had American sniper

[Chienfantome]

Most of us I'm sure. Even if it had done half of what it did, it would have been a bargain.

[empire13]

I'll enjoy first place in Ultimate while it lasts (it won't).

We both have two films left. If you're not hopeful you can hold on, what chance do I have? And, why do I think I still have a chance? Am I delusional?

[Chienfantome]

I don't know Empire.
Actually at first I was doomed because I went without Mockingjay, but it turned out rather fine on this plan after all. But many have much more than two films to open, and some of mine (ours) didn't do that well, like The Gambler or Inherent Vice. We'll see. But I prefer to be wary on that case, but if you feel good about it, it makes me feel better about it

[bestfilm]

I've still got five movies left. So, Chien and Empire, be careful!
I know I've missed The Hobbit and leaving it out was like gambling but all the other movies I chose delivered or are giving me points.
Let's see whether my backloaded strategy pays off.
