My gut is telling me to stay the hell out of this weekend. But that's not unusual...

Posted by: HuskyMiller on Sep 11, 02:56 in response to JMT's post Gutchecks anyone ? (3 longs for me - didn't play 9 )

• I felt comfortable shorting 9. That looks like it's going to work out.

• Tyler Perry will win the weekend but all my numbers say I should short it.

• Considering it's theater count (and the bath I took on Final Destination), I think Sorrity Row is a long.

• Everything about White Out screams short. Earlier in the week it was a slam dunk short for me. But it's in a lot of theaters. If Tyler Perry isn't huge, something tells me this could make it's low break-even number.

DISCLAIMER: Please don't listen to me. I've just started playing openers within the last four weeks and picking these things scares the crap out of me!

Gutchecks anyone ? (3 longs for me - didn't play 9 ) {nm} JMT Sep 11, 00:17

Shorting them all. {nm} Smelly Monkey Sep 11, 00:51

Going Short on a Tyler Perry film with Madea is a BAD BAD BAD Idea filmboy20 Sep 11, 06:05

Same here... might reverse WTOUT though {nm} secretstalker Sep 11, 03:32

I am not a fan, can I get a little insight on who is? We now have football all weekend are fans of Tyler Perry going to care? I short long damenchipguy Sep 11, 08:56

he's a gay creative from atlanata who has made millions on adapting his stage plays to movies. His key demo is older churchgoing black women {nm} Moviesnob Sep 11, 09:38

I didn't know he went to bat for the other team. Well you learn something new every day. {nm} Carlion Sep 11, 10:29

what is making you guys long whiteout? its reviews are horrid, doesn't look like its marketed thoroughly, kensanity Sep 11, 06:36

the price {nm} damenchipguy Sep 11, 09:00

I second that. I was short on it, but I flipped pre-halt. Carlion Sep 11, 10:27

hmm interesting. i feel like it will net less than 7$ mil, but i flipped HSROw to long. idk something about hot chicks. {nm} kensanity Sep 11, 18:06

if the prices for [HSROW] and [WTOUT] continue to drop like this, it may be wise to go long on them before they are halted. {nm} kensanity Sep 11, 07:10

Short WTOUT and HSROW; long on ICDBA, but it's probably just about a wash at this point. {nm} emoticripple Sep 11, 07:39

Short WTOUT and 9, Long ICDBA, HSROW. {nm} maceodkat Sep 11, 08:25

flipping my stance on HSROW. going long. {nm} kensanity Sep 11, 08:50

damnit. I'm staying short on everything, but not real secure about short on ICDBA. Doesnt have medea in the title and its a crappy weekend. {nm} Moviesnob Sep 11, 09:58

Long HSROW & ICDBA, short 9NINE & WTOUT ChrisEW Sep 11, 10:16

LONG HSROW + WTOUT - May flip {nm} thatpj Sep 11, 01:32

I'm Long on 9 and Short on WTOUT & HSROW. {nm} joeoftexas Sep 11, 03:33

i'm really skeptical about this weekend. short all one long kensanity Sep 11, 04:11

The problem is that this is the weekend after Labor Day (never good) but it's also one week later than usual. {nm} secretstalker Sep 11, 04:14

short on HSROW and WTOUT, long on ICDBA (I'm tired of underestimating the strange appeal of Tyler Perry) {nm} Carlion Sep 11, 04:53

I'm with you.......America really loves watched men dress up as fat black women. Start the hilarious antics........... {nm} Broiler Sep 11, 05:24

I don't understand it. But I will no longer fight it =) {nm} Carlion Sep 11, 05:40

Short ICDBA, HSROW - Long WTOUT - Pretty much opposite Tracking :P (Long on 9 as well - my bad) {nm} Dobs Sep 11, 05:33

I'm happy with my long in ICDBA and shorts on all the rest. I don't think CAINE is playing anything this week {nm} RogerMore Sep 11, 05:44

Long WTOUT and ICDBA, short HSROW. Short on 9 {nm} icecreamman Sep 11, 05:48
