Hollywood Reporter… What???

• One of the major daily trade magazines in the entertainment industry

• Validates info on the widget, as well as keeping it most up to date

Important Notes on the Widget

• Main focus on weekend numbers, which are looked at the most.

• Need prior knowledge to make sense of other numbers

It’s Case Study Time!

• Let’s look at today’s box office to show why this widget is the “bee’s knees”

• Remember, this is a data widget, so we are looking at numbers

First Step

• Notice how much each movie made at the box office for that weekend.

• See that Obsessed brought in $28.6 million over the weekend.

• A respectable, but not stellar number.

Number one movie of the weekend

Step 2

• Scroll over movie title to see more information• Total gross tells you how much money the movie

has made in total• Number of weeks tells you how long the movie

has been released- longer movie is out less money it normally makes week to week.

• Per theatre average tells you how much a movie made per a screen- important in seeing how some small releases can be deemed huge successes and vice versa

Detailed info about film

Step 3

• Look into movies that did not make as much money, still can be seen as a large success

• Earth did not make a lot of money in total, but by looking at the total gross, you see that the movie came out two days before (earth day) and actually did quite well

• Per theatre average is also very strong for a nature documentary

Info that shows why Earth was still a large success

How to Make It Better

• Links to info about the movies

• In-screen movie trailers

• Links to important daily news stories that could affect the box office

• Let users post reviews and give user numbers
