Quadruple ouch on Scream 4! The box office is close to being pronounced dead. I thought I'd never say this but... HarryWarden Apr 15, 21:56

WOW! That Is Insanely BRUTAL For Scream 4. I Never Thought It Would Go Under $20M. RIDICOULOUS ! {nm} wrongturn687 Apr 15, 21:57

At one point, I thought it had a chance at 20M...in one day. {nm} HarryWarden Apr 15, 21:59

there were many posts on here from people adamant it would hit 20M+ on Fri. {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 22:33

Maybe everyone is waitin till Saturday to go see Scream 4. ;) jk {nm} Winstonman78 Apr 15, 22:25

WoW {nm} winstonman78 Apr 15, 21:59

Now why would the title be That Rio and Scream 4 are on Target {nm} winstonman78 Apr 15, 22:00

She sometimes updates only the figures , she still has scream as "overperforming" in the description {nm} karspov Apr 15, 22:01

AH. Well the title was different from the 9:48 initial update. wasn't sure {nm} WW MTC do Apr 15, 22:03

Also, Fox only expected "near 30 million". At least that was their story, wasn't it. PVL Admin Apr 15, 22:10

Im laughin hard from your name changes {nm} WW MTC do Apr 15, 22:02

The bad news? MTC would no longer be the most accurate this weekend. PVL Admin Apr 15, 22:02

Did the Indians win a pennant? {nm} WW MTC do Apr 15, 22:03

All of the above. Proof: We are now asking/begging for Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, Paul WALKER to save us {nm} HarryWarden Apr 15, 22:03

We are asking for the Pacifier to save us {nm} WinstonMan78 Apr 15, 22:05

Ah please! Just when I had completely blacked that movie out of my memory for what I hoped was forever...it's back wiith a Vengeance! {nm} HarryWarden Apr 15, 22:07

Trying having 2 kids that loved the movie and made u watch it at least 20 times {nm} winstonman78 Apr 15, 22:09

I can lend you mine... {nm} He that licks his wounds Apr 15, 22:11

Sad to say, I don't see FFUR5 doing past 55M, my personal opinion only ;) {nm} karspov Apr 15, 22:06

Heh...talk about a scream...I might just delist from that adjust if it really is around 20m. LOL {nm} Crossover Fund Apr 15, 22:06

Yeh, the good old Catzan is back !! ;) {nm} karspov Apr 15, 22:07

I get that bad boy off my back and I will work on my bonds again. Then I can start cranking a little more. ;-) {nm} Catzan Apr 15, 22:11

WOW...just WOW. derivatives will be off the chain son. {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 22:08

eh.. ? They are all halted....... {nm} Facto Apr 15, 22:08

But they will be great after adjust if u held them right at the halt {nm} winstonman78 Apr 15, 22:10

i know, Monday if those numbers held true you're looking at roughly 3.5M+ gain (too lazy to do the math right now) {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 22:10

cha-ching! {nm} RazorHawk Apr 15, 22:27

going to be a good weekend, and a VERY nice Monday! {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 22:28

I guess it's blindsights like this where OW And call/put options really pays off {nm} karspov Apr 15, 22:11

Yeah...but when halt was on Friday for stocks...THAT was a reaaaal nice pay off. {nm} Catzan Apr 15, 22:13

Course the fund being up 2m right now with this new method...that is nice. {nm} Catzan Apr 15, 22:15

Actually the gain is still the same, it's just that everyone is in for a free ride on the moviestocks {nm} karspov Apr 15, 22:15

Yeah...but I like that lump sum payment. {nm} Catzan Apr 15, 22:17

Me too , in the old times, when the adjusts happen, the satisfaction is stellar when u are on the right side of the ball {nm} karspov Apr 15, 22:19

Monday is going to be a very good day for making money on the misfortune of others. {nm} banke005 Apr 15, 22:15

Mark me down as taking a beating on Scream's OW derivative. jpeck83 Apr 15, 22:14

Im taking a beating on it, but Rio is making up for it bigtime. Woohoo {nm} Pacifier Apr 15, 22:16

I guess one "good" thing about such underperformance vs. HSX expectation is there are a lot of money to be made on StarBonds {nm} xiayun Apr 15, 22:15

cough ATEEG cough {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 22:19

Don't you mean cough AANDE cough? {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Apr 16, 00:09

hey xiayun, Nikki is using a 2.3 for SCRM4, do you agree? 2.0 or 2.1 would be really low in this case, but is a 2.5 - 2.6 possible? {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 22:21

2.3 sounds right; the midnight gross wasn't big, but still close to 10% of its Friday total, so I don't see anything bigger {nm} xiayun Apr 15, 22:23

danke {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 22:25

I have checked, Some of the starbonds has become washes from the underperformance of these 2 flicks {nm} karspov Apr 15, 22:23

yeah, many would have done much better had SCRM4 been able to delist above 85M {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 22:25

At this rate, I will have to rejoin the 10 Mil Port Value League :) {nm} PVL Admin Apr 15, 22:16

For reference: F13 OD - 19.2M Scream 4 OW - 19M at best probably. Wow, epic fail. Are the Weinsteins dead? HarryWarden Apr 15, 22:16

No but I would imagine most of those miramax reboot and sequel partnership projects just got killed {nm} notfabio Apr 15, 22:34

Sweet... holding both short every which way :) {nm} Chefbobcat Apr 15, 22:25

think about this....if SCRM4 numbers held true the stock still has over 3.2M+ of profit left in it at 100K shares. there are 131M shares lobogotti Apr 15, 22:29

too badi could only afford 1961 shares. lol {nm} Poorboy Apr 15, 22:31

doh! {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 22:32

Still over 130mil shares held long. My guess is lotta people gonna be upset come saturday morning. {nm} Winstonman78 Apr 15, 22:40

Should have listened to my dog. {nm} PVL Admin Apr 15, 23:17
