This morning, on ABC News’ This Week, ESPN statistician Nate Silver shared some stats on Oscar winners. In July, it was announced that ESPN would be acquiring Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight brand and build it to cover sports, politics, and entertainment through a statistics lens. ESPN’s FiveThirtyEight is currently staffing up before its official launch.
Nate says that adaptations of books do well. Frozen is a very-loose adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s Snow Queen. On the less optimistic side, Nate says films that focus on family relationships between two woman do not fare so well. Find out how his predictions pan out for Frozen, tonight on ABC.
