Bill’s Opening Weekend Prediction - $12M ($12.4M Actual)
Bill’s Popcorn Period* Prediction - $32M - $37M
*The Popcorn Period – The settlement date for all movie contracts takes place approximately four weeks after a film has been released in theatres. It is during this 4 weeks that a film will collect money at the box office. If a film makes $50M at the box office during this 4 weeks, the contract will cash out a $50. I refer to this time frame as the Popcorn Period.
