I call bullshit. Theres no link here. And that would be more than Dangal grossed in total. Post a link.
I got it off twitter uh, there was no link, it was just a image. I didn't think someone would make that up.
EDIT: Found a link after a quick search - I guess they were referring to worldwide? http://www.financialexpress.com/entertainment/baahubali-2-daangal-set-to-be-beaten-by-it-stephen-king-movie-it-box-office-collections-rs-1150-cr-worldwide-will-shock-and-awe-you-aamir-khan-prabhas-film/853133/

I'm pretty sure this is crazy stats for any movie in India, let alone a English horror R rated movie:

FWIW American Assassin has a lot of twitter engagement relative to most movies. 25.2K followers on twitter is more than half what IT had 3 days before release (was about 42K). Hitman's Bodyguard was around 5K and Annabelle around 7-8K. Engagement on tweets is a lot too.
I don't entirely get it, but this movie may break out to some extent.
No. It's social media engagement is all from Dylan O Brien fanbase.. it's a cult. It will not amount to much. It's just all his fan girls going crazy about this movie. I would take this with a lot of salt.
-
The better the opening gets the more I think that this won't have great legs lol. But I could be totally wrong. There's always a movie every few years that just hits all the sweet spots.
-
Even with all the problems this movie has had post-production wise, like the editing/CGI etc... just Stephen King's characters done right is enough. It's also what made Stranger things a phenomenon. This is the recipe.
EDIT: Also marketing and timing. Can't forget those two. This movie had EXCEPTIONAL marketing, one of the best ever in my opinion.

I'm really torn on AA. I'm expecting it to flop, but it's doing exceptionally well on social media
That's because of Dylan's fanbase.. it doesn't amount to much when it comes to box office stats so don't make much of it.

Important to note even with Thor being open for sales, IT is consistently increasing on Movietickets, even if it's by a little. Currently sitting at 84.2% sales.
-
All in all I think big horror fans are disappointed, but general public is happy with how IT turned out to be.
Expect it to be a massive hit because it's not just pure horror. It is one of a kind with it's Evil Dead meets Stand By Me vibe.
-
I don't even mind if it wasn't that scary. People forget that they watched the mini-series when they were kids.. now they aren't kids, so clowns won't be as scary for obvious reasons. Stop expecting them to be.
My biggest issue was with the editing and pacing, I can excuse the pacing because it's based off a massive book but the editing/post production work was really poor in my opinion and resulted in the movie not flowing as nice despite the good cinematography.
It was by no means bad but definitely a missed opportunity to make this a masterpiece/classic.

I hope someone has the data for Brazil's OD. I'm intrigued.

Well IT is the widest released film at my theater. 2,342 total seats available
. Middle America is devouring this film
That could just be because movie releases are dry which is the case right now, there's no major release besides IT.
The real question is how many of them are sold out compared to movies in the past.
-
I think the previews are huge for this movie. 12-15m.
-
I'm thinking $70m lowest, $85m highest.

#ITMovie opens ultrawide in massive 4103 thtrs this wknd. Only film to ever open wider in whole AUG-to-OCT corridor was#SuicideSquad.-

It is now 75% on Movietickets. I guess @Rumpot prediction of it being 80% by Friday was pretty spot on.

That's not how I interpret it. He says we will have some fun working together, so how can you take that any other way? He says he and Andy will work together down the road.
Because he says down the road which implies they're not working together yet. There is nothing that says Andy and The Rock have worked, whereas David is a director/producer of Ballers & IT respectively. He is the mutual so even if they know each other or worked on something which to our knowledge is nothing, David is the connection..
Anyways not arguing any further on this. Either way The Rock didn't just shout it out of nowhere so it's whatever imo.
-
Just now, Stutterng baumer Denbrough said:
No, that's not the connection. He said that he and Muschietti would be working together in the future.
"we're gonna have some fun working together down the road."
That doesn't indicate to me that they're working on something, more of like I'm sure we'll cross paths because again David is a Producer and mutual of both, so it's highly possible he gets them on one project. The connection is with David.

Always good to get a ringing endorsement from one of the biggest stars in the world. I wonder which project they are going to work on together.
Before anyone even gets any kind of ideas, The Rock will not be one of the adults in the second movie. He doesn't come close to fitting into one of the roles.
David Katzenberg, one of the IT's producer actually directed The Rock's show "Ballers" on HBO. So I guess that's where the connection is, otherwise I doubt The Rock would give this kind of shout-out even though the dude is a professional sell-out.

To be honest I don't think this is SK or the book's magic. Sure the book is really popular and probably had some influence but this number is way beyond that. It is a phenomenon that couldn't have been predicted, think in recent years, Stranger Things of movies. It has a relatively unknown crew(directors etc.), unknown cast and low budget but it just hits all the right notes with the audience to the point where everyone's gotta go check this out just to see what the buzz is about.
