Yasss!

 

I knew the reaction to the trailer was special.

 

I've never seen anything like it, turns out now that no one ever has! 

 

Fantastic. 

 

A horror movie beat the record by 60million views! 

 

YES!

Crazy! 

[75Live]

Jericho's take on this whole thing  "Trailer record, you know you're gonna get beat by..."

 

[Truckasaurus]

This is insane. Have we reached the age where a horror movie can now open to $100M?

$100m would be very unlikely since it's opening in September. I think $50-60m will be the highest it'll go which will more than enough to break the September record.

I'm speechless, it not only broke the record, it destroyed it. That's our moment @Krissykins, after a terrible 2014 and 2015, the full renaissance of the genre is complete.

MOD PLEA:

 

Many of us have read the book.

Probably even more have seen the 1990 TV event.

 

But that doesn't mean that you can or should discuss spoilers from these two mediums.  Think of this movie like you would any other film.  If Infinity Wars had been made into a novel first, and you discussed the details of that novel, the MARVEL LOONIES  would hang you in effigy.  Please have the same respect for this or any other film that is based on an incredibly popular book or TV show/series/movie.

 

Thanks everyone.  

 

Just going to say there is a six issue Infinity War comic book series...

 

but yeah dont spoil the movie for those unfamiliar with the book or mini-series folks!

[Brainbug]

If you would put a Marvel Blockbuster in September, it would certainly not open to like 50M. If theres high interest in a movie, it can certainly open any day of the year.

 

Im all in for IT to gross 200M+

[TimmyRiggins]

Ah ah holy fu ckin shit, this is going to make so much bank, I wonder if that 30 million budget for the two films was correct, the trailer makes it look more like between 40 & 50 million $, very high production values. GO IT

American Sniper broke the January record by $48m.

Deadpool broke the February record by $47m. 

And of course, Star Wars broke the December record by $164m.

Not saying we should expect a $100m+ opening for IT, but I think box office in recent years has proven that audiences will go see a movie at any time of the year if they really want to.

Anyone else think Stranger Things might have had a hand in the success this trailer?

I'm impressed by the amount of online views. Can't say the same about the trailer itself.

[Ozymandias]

This will make more money than Snyderleague

Maybe but the kid from Stranger Things is barely in the trailer.

Nah, what I meant was that it feels a lot like ST.

[Valonqar]

Does anyone know if they will drop the adult phase and just have kids in this? I lost interest once they grew up.
