It | Sept. 8, 2017 | Warner Brothers | Andy Muschietti directing. Trailer on Page 12 NO SPOILER DISCUSSION. Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes

[James]

76m views on FB in just 17 hours. LOL, this is so ridiculous.

9m views on WB's official YT channel + 6-7m on other channels. 

 

I am starting a club for this over 50m OW, if there isn't already one.

It's already been confirmed that THAT scene is not going to be in the movie. I mean how the hell would you possibly fIlm that with actors that are around 14 or 15 years old? You just simply could not do it. It works really well in the book but it does not need to be in the film at all whatsoever and the film will not suffer from it obviously.

[FantasticBeasts]

So happy for this.

I remember reading the novel as a kid and freaking out. I couldn't look at a clown for years.

I think it will do huge numbers. It is considered a classic.

The Buzz will be very strong for such a kind of film.

The JL trailer was more interesting and fun than the IT trailer, yes. I have no idea about each movie, of course. 

 

I mean...

@baumer That's a brilliant tribute to Stephen King's IT you've written there, dude.

 

There's something unique about his acuity of capturing and portraying childhood and its darker sides that lingers into adulthood like unresolved traumas affecting his characters lives, intertwining past and present.

Thanks @dashrendar44

Given how weak August could be if Emoji Movie and Dark Tower miss  $100 million DOM, this seems positioned to break out if it gets decent WOM

 

$50 million/$145 million

93.5million from the two Facebook versions. 

 

Could this beat the record?? 

[theultimatebiu]

The buzz for this movie is kinda insane. I honestly see a huge OW. That trailer is very effective and IT was a huge TV event when it was released.

 

$50M+ OW

[The Panda]

They should really move this to August and let the movie play out.  I thought it'd be a 100m or so hit before, but I think 200m could be in reach if it's good.

I knew people liked IT, I had no idea how much.

Also, clowns are just scary as fuck. Hate 'em.

yeah this alone will help the movie.  I never got the they are scary bit, but obviously a lot of people do

[sabrecmc]

Everyone I know is talking about this.  I've seen it on multiple Facebook feeds.  Not from people who I would at all consider horror fans, either. I was surprised.  I think a lot of people remember being scared by the TV movie as children, but with that kind of fondness for the original even if it is outdated looking back.  I'm really surprised. Thought this was much more niche.  Never considered Pennywise such a part of the culture that this would be as popular as it seems to be.

It didn't really help the Poltergeist remake.

To be fair, that remake never looked particularly interesting.

Plus that is about one scene, this is a main character as a clown

I'm shocked at how many views this trailer has. It's up there with some of the biggest blockbusters today. No idea how this is going to translate to the box office...but having this many people talking about the film this early is a good thing. I could see this passing Get Out if the reviews are decent. Amazing year for horror!

But the clown was all over the marketing, the poster was just the clown. I remember New Line almost totally cancelled the It remake due to Poltergeists box office performance.

[Ethan Hunt]

This looks kinda okay I guess
