HSX's webpage has a listing of all of the summer movies, if you need information on some. (docs.google.com)

Man, that is comprehensive. -- nm - volnelk May 1, 07:41
When is final box office determined? -- nm - Roger More May 1, 06:43 13
- I figure most will end by Labor Day, so maybe we say that? I'm open to suggestions. - MDH May 1, 06:45 12
  - You have a couple of Labor Day weekend releases. Maybe a little later, to give them a chance to earn some post-OW money? - Roger More May 1, 06:49 7
    - Should we say 9/30? That gives the final releases a month... Thoughts everyone? -- nm - MDH May 1, 06:50 6
      - Looking at some of last year's releases, the Labor Day releases had made about 80% of their total BO by September 16 - Roger More May 1, 06:55 4
        
        Okay, sounds good, plus this isn't too long after summer ends. 9/15 it is! -- nm - MDH May 1, 06:56 3
        
        Nitpicking, but important - I'm assuming the Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends are 4-day totals, but how will the July 4 weekend work? - Roger More May 1, 07:20 2
        
        5 Day weekend for July 4. And Memorial Day/Labor Day 4 day weekend. -- nm - MDH May 1, 07:29 1
        
        Phew, done! -- nm - Roger More May 1, 07:35
      - sure -- nm - Epiphany May 1, 06:53
  - Except for the late July/August releases, so maybe we have to alter it somewhat -- nm - MDH May 1, 06:46 3
    - I think if you choose anything but the old HSX 4-week cutoff, people will make choices based on that metric anyway, so why not just go with that? -- nm - con_carne May 1, 06:51
    - Maybe use the HSX method of picking one cut-off date for 'blockbuster warrants' and people can tailor their guesses to that cut-off date. - ty97 May 1, 06:48 1
      - Either this or my above note (whatever you all like is fine), I can edit the spreadsheet to include the date depending. -- nm - MDH May 1, 06:51
Also, thanks to Will for being the first one to fill it out (I know it's a lot of movies) -- nm - MDH May 1, 06:42 2
- Heh. I just looked at it and was like "this is like playing HSX again." - JaxSean May 1, 07:04 1
  - HS wha?? -- nm - Jim May 1, 07:07
