@TheDarkKnightOfSteel A great horror sequel is not unthinkable - James Wan did it with The Conjuring 2 - but that's awesome to hear.

 

Between Mama and especially this, Andy Muschietti has just entered the elite horror directors club that is bound to get big gigs from WB from now on, alongside Wan and David Sandberg.

Is it too late to have Muschietti take over the Suspiria remake?

C'mon IT, break records, break records!

This is the Spoiler Thread for the IT movie. 

 

Please read at your own spoilage risk.

 

Please do not spoil aspects of the book that could be pertinent to the second part.

 

Enjoy.

P.S: The film is great. Felt like A Nightmare on Elm Street film in style (so I chuckled when that was the film playing in a theatre).

 

Some of the best kid acting I've seen. 

 

Only peeves:

 

1) The foul mouthed glasses kid annoyed me a bit.

 

2) They didn't bring up the fact that every character was clearly killed in that rock fight.

....does anyone care about the Suspiria remake? If anything, they should go after him for The Crooked Man and then for a tentpole film (like a DCEU flick - since Wan and Sandberg are doing one respectively.... so in his case, maybe Flashpoint, I'd guess? - or something in the Fantastic Beasts franchise, because I doubt that Yates is doing them all).

Does it end on a cliffhanger or just allude to part 2?

The Suspiria remake is going to open next year (Luca Guadagnino made the film while Call Me by Your Name has been doing the festival circuit and awaiting release since Sundance).

Here's what my theater looks right now:

 

 

virtually almost sold out except for the very front two rows, which those are now being bought.

 

This is the 7:15 showing that they added two days ago:

You could watch it and happily not feel like anything is missing and requires watching a part 2.

 

But I  want part 2

Birmingham Alabama presale analysis

 

Thursday night previews : 23 showtimes / 0 sellout.  I only have major blockbuster comparisons available where the lowest openings were WW (31 shows / 103M$), SMH (35 shows / 117M$) & SS (36 shows / 134M$). 

 

As far as Friday shows, it looks like one major theater has not updated its showtimes yet so it only shows 73 showtimes at the moment while WW had 91, SMH 111 and SS 110.  I expect IT will have around 85 showtimes when all theaters have finalized their schedule.  EDIT : Can confirm 13 shows are missing from Fandango, so 86 total shows for Friday. 

 

All in all, a very good opening in perspective, but I wouldn't expect an opening in the Super Hero major blockbuster range like some are/were excited for (100M$+).

 

Still looking at a 75-85M range on my end, but WOM could kick this up in the 90's.

Trying to catch this "evil thing" friday night.
