And....? 91% is not good enough? 

It's a flop.

I didn't expect it to stay above 90 if anything if it stays above 80 than that's fine imo. This is a horror movie and from time to time they all don't get great reviews but that's not going to stop its box office.

With a few more days to go before its Friday release date, “It” has already broken the record as Fandango’s #1 horror pre-seller of all time, eclipsing 2011’s “Paranormal Activity 3,” and the record as Fandango’s top pre-seller among September releases, beating 2016’s “Sully.”

 

According to a survey of more than 1,000 “It” moviegoers on Fandango:

• 96% have been looking forward to Fall’s fresher movie fare.
• 91% are fans of Stephen King.
• 89% were intrigued by the trailer.
• 85% are excited to see “Stranger Things” star Finn Wolfhard in his big-screen debut. 
•  73% saw the 1990 TV mini-series with Tim Curry as Pennywise.
•  68% claim the lack of images of the new Pennywise increased their interest.
•  Only 57% identify themselves as true horror fans.

Didn't think I would say that, but I'm quite excited for this even though I haven't read the book and thought the trailers looked like a lame rip-off of the already pretty lame show Stranger Things. 

 

Reviews, their power.

I hope you're joking about IT ripping off Stranger things.

It's going to put some serious distance on these records. Tickets on Fandango going 80+ per minute all day

[Goffe]

Obviously. I said it looks like one, not that it is one. Stranger Things is an 80's Greatest Hits - Family edition type of thing, so obviously saying It ripped it off would be insane (not to mention It was written IDK how many years before ST)

Off topic but I noticed a few UK critics (Guardian, Sun, Telegraph) recently discussing on twitter why Stranger Things is only good for 80's nostalgia and nothing else. 

 

I loved Stranger Things though.

And most likely that 45% doesn't include IT IMAX which likely will creep on tomorrow at #5

I thought MT doesn't divide IMAX, 3d and 2d tickets. Only Fandango does.

[Lestranger]

Hype train don't stop for IT. Over 80m OW.

[AJG]

$110m OW is the high end. It’s gonna be monstrous.

I could be wrong but thought I saw it split up for a recent movie on MT.  Will know for sure tomorrow I suppose

[That One Girl]

300M OW.  Over TFA.  It's a done deal at this point.

[robertman2]

Why did this thread just die all of the sudden

[We0uthere]

IT has officially been certified fresh, and it's holding pretty steady at 90%. I honestly wasn't expecting higher then 75%. Anyone have any stats on horror movies and RT ratings? I'd love to see how this compares.
