STEPHEN KING'S IT WEEKEND THREAD | 117.15 Mill!....NO SPOILERS..NOT EVEN IN TAGS!

[CJohn]

It will do 40M OD.

[MattW]

If you listen close you can hear the sound of theater owners breathing a massive sigh of relief (plus maybe one or two moans of ecstacy?).

[filmlover]

Lots of theaters are already closing up around me (or are only having one IT show tonight before closing up). Hopefully theaters will give passes to everyone who bought tickets for tonight and through the weekend passes so that they can see the movie at a later time.

So does It pass the Dark Tower's total gross by tomorrow night or some time Saturday.  I'll go with the latter.

Dark Tower made 48m, so I'd say by Sunday at least.

[cannastop]

I have a hunch that It will sell higher than expected. Tickets are selling like hotcakes in my local podunk college town theater.

 

Currently betting on $88m.

Now that's a bit crazy.

[DAJK]

The storm will definitely hurt it, to the point where I honestly think 10M may be taken off what it could have done on OW. 

 

That being said, being safe in the storm is much more important than a movie. Have a safe weekend to all BOTers who are going to be affected, I'll be thinking about you guys

@That One Guy can finally have a club success.

 

Its opening week over WW gross so it needs more than 101M WW by the end of the week...which is probably very achievable

[That One Girl]

50M previews

120M true Friday

130M Saturday

110M Sunday

 

410M OW

$78m is my current prediction. Online sales have been very strong in my local theaters.

They've probably been the most profitable releases around.

@DeeCee translate this for me please.

[WrathOfHan]

I'm really pissed I have to wait another 5 (OR MORE) days to see It. At least mother! isn't getting rained out on, then I would be going through mental turmoil
