This never ceases to amaze me

Is it just me or does anyone else think the 2016 clown sighting hysteria contributed to IT's box office success? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_clown_sightings I remember people were also speculating if it was just a publicity stunt for the movie That plus the uniqueness of having kids as the main characters (which also worked for Stranger Things, another huge breakout at the time) really makes IT a zeitgeist film So I hope no one is making huge expectations for this sequel and this movie shouldn't be seen as a disappointment if it doesn't surpass or stay flat from the first

They also spaced out the gaps between A2, A3, A4 and A5 Probably didn't want another SW situation where the yearly movies kinda took the "event" factor away Especially as each movie is apparently stand alone unlike IW/Endgame

Idgi, Dec 2020 was such a perfect release date "Cruella" should've been direct to Disney+ like Lady and the Tramp Is that what Disney was concerned about? LOL

Can the GA remember the name of Leonardo's character in Inception? Sandra's character in Gravity? Matthew's character in Interstellar? Now that I think about it the only other original movie without any pre-exisiting fanbase or property in the top 25 highest grossing WW list right now is Frozen Elsa is probably the only "new" character this decade that the GA went crazy for and she's still loosely based off of The Snow Queen, sort of a B-list fairytale from a hundred years ago

I was way too young to watch Titanic but one of my earliest childhood memories was that movie being everywhere and all the adults talking about it (I was like 3 at the time) That was one of the first cultural events I ever witnessed and remember aside from the death of Princess Diana -

E.T. being in that list full of epic scale spectacles is so cool especially when u think about how most of the movie takes place in a small house lol It's such a universally touching story -
Endgame outgrossing Avatar WW could work in A2's favor Since Avatar is no longer at the top, the online hate bandwagon around it will finally calm down and mellow out a bit (just like what happened to Titanic) and people will be more open to seeing A2 if they hear good WOM from the GA (real life people who liked Avatar 10 years ago and never really hated on it online) Disney can still market it as a mega event cause I mean, it's still #2 and it's not like it didn't hold the record for 9 years

Everyone fighting in here while Disney owns the top 5 movies of all time -
How does the rank thing work? I figured it was based on how long we've been a member but I saw someone who joined in 2 yrs before me and they're still "Straight-to-DVD" Is it by number of posts?
-
I can see it happening to A2 - A3 but not A1 - A2 A2 is hitting 3B+ while A3 is probably staying in the 2B+ range
-
Can't wait for A2 to come out so that this "Avatar is forgotten" meme can die, it's so annoying
