I've been extremely tired today and I've also felt like I've been running in circles. Through Google, that is. I have a data management project and my question for it is if the popularity of a book before it becomes a movie, affects how well the movie does. So what I was going for would be, for the most part, the movie revenue (box office only) and the copies sold. There are other variables, but I haven't gathered my information from there yet.
Movie revenue is extremely easy to come by, especially on www.boxofficemojo.com. The difficult thing here is finding how many copies of each book has been sold. Even findign those stats on Harry Potter is difficult!!! Through extensive Google searches I did find what I was looking for, though I'm waiting for some confirmation/clarification on the Harry Potter stats. In the meantime, I was going to look for my other variables, but I don't know. I think I have to edit which ones I want.
Feeling-really-dizzy,
Jessa
