Producer / Directors sister talking about why Bill hasnt done promotion for the film thus far.

 

Short verion: See evil monster first ---  see super handsome, young, well spoken well mannered man playing evil monster later.

 

 

Super handsome are not exactly words I would had used to describe someone who looks like he could be the son of Steve Buscemi. Now if it was his brother Alexander on the other hand...

I Am Legend, World War Z, and Signs are all star vehicle blockbuster genre pics, they aren't horror movies. Hannibal, maybe. If this beats 52m of Paranormal Activity 3, then I give it the title for highest opener of a "true" horror, but to each their own.

I Am Legend and World War Z are like post-apocalyptic action adventure movies.  I don't see why they'd be listed as horror. Signs is actual horror. I'd give that the nod.

Hannibal ain't a horror movie, not really.

 

Yeah it's hard for everyone to decide.

 

World War Z is a zombie film so some class it as horror, it definitely follows the tropes of one, I Am Legend is listed as horror on most websites. Signs is a horror IMO, but is listed as a sci-fi drama. 

 

It's difficult because then do we include Resident Evil 6? Prometheus is listed as SciFi Adventure and Mystery on IMDb but Covenants first listed genre is horror.

I've been following the Fandango Box Office Meter for the past week or so, and I've noticed a pattern in the sales: It appears during the day The Hitman's Bodyguard dominates the sales, and you see a few sales of IT here in there but as it approaches night time the IT sales start to increase, and at around midnight/12:00PM EST, IT starts to completely dominate and basically takes Hitman's spot and more. Even when Hitman is getting sales during the day it does not dominate as hard as IT does when it comes to night time. Annabelle Creation's sales also increase by a bit during night time. 

 

I was wondering how Fandango works exactly..? Based on this pattern it seems it doesn't show live sales, but the time of screening maybe? because horror movies do tend to be for night time. I don't know because that doesn't really sound right either.. so if anyone would want to explain that'd be great.

 

EDIT: I decided to count the sales for a quick minute(3:20AM EST) and they are as follows (they have been going at this pace for the past few hours so even though I only recorded for a minute, this isn't skewed):

 

IT: 38 sales

Annabelle Creation: 4 sales

THB: 5 sales

World War Z is not a horror movie just like Resident Evil 6 is not a horror game. But I'd say World War Z has some horror elements while RE6 has none. The scene where Brad has to get the virus from the closed section of the lab where there is zombie's everywhere is the scene that gave me the heebie jeebies. As for I Am Legend , I think it's a thriller but with some horror sprinkled all over. Signs didn't give me a horror movie vibe , we barely see the "scary aliens" and the story wasn't really focused on the alien invasion horror.

So, IT comes at night?

It's  kinda weird seeing the kids do marketing for this as they've clearly aged, look like teenagers now. Good thing they didn't need to back and do loads of reshoots.

Well they're going to have flashbacks for Part 2 and according to Muschietti they didn't film them during Part 1 which is a big mistake.  

[75Live]

3 more days until I get to see this  I don't like time to move too fast but Thursday will be hard to wait for

I hope Wrathofhan has his adult diapers ready, shitting himself out of fear without them would be quite embarrassing.

Look I know Han fucked up with that Wonder Woman prediction but he has no hate for WB unlike Kevin and he is definitely not a fanboy, just let him be.

This movie employs the LEAST alarming clown I've ever seen, lol.

 

After the CATASTROPHIC and oh so recent failure of the The Dark Tower, do people really expect something positive to come out of this project here?

 

PS: Now here's a scary clown:

So far everything is pointing to it being a critical and financial success. And not really fair to compare IT to TDT since it did everything wrong while IT seems to be doing everything right. And the clown is supposed to come off as unalarming at first. The book even mentions IT uses this form to bait kids in.

Yes, many of us "really" do...that is until I saw this comic book cover you posted which changed my mind

[Johnny Tran]

I think either Spike or USA, one of them will be showing It on Thursday night.  I might watch that and then go see this It on Friday night.  I can't wait.
