Box Office Predictions - 2015
This list was created by and in the opinion of Stephen H Koontz
Predictions made January of 2015
I guessed 1 out of 25 correctly, and was only off by only 1 position with 3 predictions.
Another year with several surprises (Always a good thing)
I guessed too big on the Marvel movies, "Age of Ultron" and "Ant-Man". I thought "Spectre", "Mockinjay", and "Ted 2" would be bigger, coming of previous franchise hits. I went too big on sure-things like the Pixar brand, with "The Good Dinosaur" and the Terminator brand, with "Genysis". I thought the Fantastic Four story and Cameron Crowe ("Aloha") would have big comebacks. Not so.
I was surprised by movies I knew would be hits, but not enormous hits, like "Jurassic World", "Minions", and "Cinderella". However, no movie surprised more than the #1 for the year, "The Force Awakens". I guessed a whopping $670 million was still $266 million short!
#8: The Martian; $228
#13: The Revenant; $183
#18: The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water; $163
#19: Straight Outta Compton; $161
#21: Mad Max: Fury Road; $153
#22: Daddy's Home; $150
#23: The Divergent Series: Insurgent; $130
#24: The Peanuts Movie; $130
#25: Kingsman: The Secret Service; $128
Enjoy!
