Sandman is more popular than Iron Man confirmed. Time to greenlight a spin-off explaining the origins of his awesome shirt!
Our IT contest wrapped up this weekend. Here were the predictions (made 8-10 days ago):
On average, we were wrong by at least $40M.
Congratulations to Biggest-Geek-Ever and AdventureRacing for taking the top two places.
There were two games up for grab, SOMA and Killing Floor 2. I will PM people in order until they are gone. I know some people have those titles, or aren't interested in either game, so prizes may go to places outside the Top 2.

IT deserves all the success it gets and it's nice to see Spidey do well in China.
Someone in China really gets spidey

I don't remember pandas in Homecoming...
I can't even front: that ad campaign is hilarious.
Thanks to IT, this will probably end up being the highest grossing September of all time.
The previous record was $626M. After this weekend, September will have a bit more than $355M to go to hit that number. I could see IT making at least $150M more before the end of the month. If it has legs closer to the Conjuring films, it could make $200M+ more before Oct 1st.
This month still has Kingsman 2, Ninjago, American Assassin, Mother!, and the first two days of both American Made and Flatliners.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
I still can't believe IT is doing this well. And with all the positive reviews and word of mouth, the sequel is going to be huge.
Even though its been a good year for horror films, I think the upcoming ones are going to be flops. Jigsaw? Flatliners? Nobody cares about that junk.

Just goes to show that Asian bootleggers continue to be better at making posters than Marvel producers.
Think that depends on how good it is. Seems to have more talented directors than it's previous ones.
What did he mean by this?

I wonder what Edgar Wright thinks of Baby Driver. Like, did he make a conscious effort to do a more "mainstream" film? Bigger than all his other movies combined lol
Taking the discussion from last week's thread here.
50% drop for a horror movie and one that opened so high is exceptionally good, we'll have to wait and see if it can do that.

This poster advertises the Thor 2: The Darck World we all wanted.

So Spider-Man actually passed wonder woman world wide? Honestly shocked.
LOL
It's been a dream project for him since 1994. Usually, a dream project is shorthand for "thing the director wants to do that will make no money," but considering the box office performance of his other films, this is the rare occasion in which the opposite happened.

$50 million?! $105million?! I'm such a silly goose!
Spider-Man Homecoming only looked to be trailing Wonder Woman because its Chinese release was 2 months late. Homecoming was always way ahead overseas. If you remove the $90M Chinese gross, Wonder Woman has made about $315M overseas. Homecoming was at around $425M before China.
Wonder Woman will finish about $80M ahead of Spider-Man domestically, but Spider-Man will be ahead by $150-170M overseas.

The Big Sick continuing to kill it in that Top 20.
There are people who paid to watch Inhumans in IMAX. Anything is possible.

I think we can safely say the roll of the dice paid off.
This MFer is still in the top 10.

I expect more big budget King film adaptations and HBO, Netflix, all the major cable channels thinking of what books they could adapt into prestige series. I totally expect a new Salem's Lot and at least a big The Stand show (ideally a show, maybe a movie)

Is there a reason Spider-Man is so popular in China? I'm shook.
HBO should fly under the radar and by the rights Richard Bachman novels, many say he is the heir to stephen king
