Insane for Smile. Paramount needs to throw the director a big ass check for whatever he comes up with next.

[Grebacio]

Paramount exces must be smiling right now

Wow, Sunday down only -2% from last week. 
 

Smile’s second weekend hold here in the UK was +17%. It’s worldwide positive WOM. 

[Valonqar]

Holy shit Smile within an inch of 19M! 

[RichWS]

That weekend drop has convinced me to see it on my next day off.

[DAJK]

Genuinely excited to see what Parker Finn does next. Would kind of like to see him go the Mike Flanagan route and develop/write/direct his own horror series. But part of me would be genuinely curious if he lightning could strike twice with Smile 2.

I’m sure there is a holiday effect at play here but Smile’s second Sunday being higher than its second Friday is simply absurd. $100M is looking really good even with Halloween Ends opening this week.

Since the Ring analogs never end, the smart thing for him would be to take a hint from Verbinski and let someone else fall on that sword. It's the rare kind of shocking success that would give him a lot of leaway. Why waste it on a Smile 2?

Wtf is this movie. This movie was not on my radar but this legs are tempting me to see it. Increase from last week fucking insane.

[DAJK]

I genuinely think part of Smile’s insane WOM is how many people thought it was going to be bad. Before it came out, all I heard was “it looks like Truth or Dare” or “it looks silly/campy”. 
 

Don’t underestimate how strong “wait... this is actually GOOD?” WOM can be.
