But we were with IT the whole time, especially when our boy froggo is in it

That's just one stupid post

>>87603245
Why would peoole think this would flop?

>>87603329
Shouldn't the movie studios that are losing at the box office be the ones to get mad at the success of IT? I don't see what connection Disney would have to it, considering how they are the only ones who are consistently doing extremely well.

>>87603423
maybe because they thought it was another generic horror movie ?

With that said I tried to go and watch IT wearing my clown costume, and hall authorities denied my entry

No, /tv/ thought it wouldn't have made as much as it could've made if the leads weren't a nigger and a woman. We were right. Flopped in China, couldn't surpass Titanic and Avatar

>budget 30 million
Is this going to be the most profitable film of all time or what? It's opening is on par with that fucking Spider-Man/Iron Man movie.

>>87604299
>No, /tv/ thought it wouldn't have made as much as it could've made if the leads weren't a nigger and a woman. We were right.
Nice revisionist history you got there, just admit you got egg all over your face and in your red raw asshole

>>87604309
I mean, the book is pretty popular so there is that hype revolving around that I guess

Unless you are talking about which jailbait actress has the best legs /tv/ will pretty much always be wrong.

Flop.

>>87604424

pls

>>87604608
Get off the internet lad, bloggers aren't everyone. If you went outside ad asked any 10 people if they thought Ghostbusters looked good, at least 7 would have said it was going to be complete shit.

>>87604687
Which is what I am saying, it looked bad.

>>87604725
Sorry man, I can't read

>>87604901
ok

Maybe it's time for /tv/ to go back talking films instead of predicting box office flops?

It hasn't made any profit yet

a 35 million budget means they must make AT LEAST 350 millions to start making profit

>>87603245
Here whats wrong with It: Chapter One (2017) or whatever its called

>Beverly is not likable in the movie, they overplay the "slut" factor which is not relevant. In the book she is much more sweet and is very likable and isn't that much of a flirt between Ben and Bill.
>The tone of Pennywise is only nailed in the opening scene and maybe the house of netboot scene
>Eddie talks more than Richie in the film
>Mike's character is completely underwritten
>CGI shitshow ending
>Not enough slow paced athmosphere
>Character development was just kind of boring in the film.

I dunno, throw me a bone. I know it sounds like I'm nitpicking, but seriously, something was wrong with this movie. What was it?

okay, buddy

>>87605542
I thought the movie was fucking brilliant but yes of course there are flaws.
>Mike and Stan being underdeveloped are the main ones.
>We never see Bill's parents beside 4 seconds and we also didn't get the creepy Georgie photo-bleeding scene.
>I preferred the original Richie who was less crass/obnoxious and more charming and witty.
>CGI switched between good and shit at different points, worst being the painting lady and the leper, and the best being when Pennywise reveals the Deadlights.
>Pennywise could have used an extra scene or two showing off his deceivingly innocent side.

Other than that the movie was brilliant and I love how Pennywise is so much more inhuman in this version. Tim Curry's IT I often remember as a creepy clown but Skarsgard's IT truly is an evil otherworldly abomination.

>>87604541
don't forget spiderman

if black panther isn't a flop, /tv/ should just commit suicide

>>87603245

do posters here actually use box office profits as a way to rate film quality?

Or is this always trolling?

>>87603423

problem is, whether or not a film flops is almost never related to how good it is.

>>87604309

there's shitloads of advertising though, the budget for advertising must be in the hundreds of millions, it needs to make a shitload more than 30 mill buckaroo.

>>87604168
>/tv/ really thought TFA was going to flop
/tv/ is wrong about everything. TFA could have been someone sitting on a toilet for 2 hours and still pull a billion.

>>87606220

im pretty sure black panther will flop, nobody watched Luke Cage, why would they watch this?

Only when it validates their opinion.
The same thing with the RT score.
But its hard to argue about if a movie is successfull or not when its a grand-slam financially.

>>87604309
Most profitable movie of the year by far and away, this flick is performing like a capeshit movie despite costing $30M and having basically no marketing budget

$117M domestic opening weekend for a R-Rated $30M movie is fucking insane

Nigga he was played by an actual human being, Javier Botet (that lanky freak who played the ghost in Mama and The Crooked Man in Conjuring 2).

>>87606804
Black Panther was extremely well-received in Civil War, it won't come close to breaking records but it isn't going to flop.

>>87607026
Really cool guy by the way, he's Rec and Magical Girl, two really cool spanish movies

t. spaniard

>>87607038

black panther was shilled by buzzfeed and kikes, and was tied into a movie with lots of popular characters to carry him, will people actually get off their arses to watch a movie about a nation of niggers that have magical brains twice as smart as the average nigger?

>>87606824
look at his fucking face

>>87606876
Correction, it made $123M opening weekend. IT made more on its opening weekend that Spider-Man Homecoming, jesus fucking christ what a beast

>>87607197
Is it just because people remember the miniseries?
I didn't think this was going to flop, but I didn't expect it to be like this. Especially when the studio pushed it up from an october release.

well yes, the leper looked scarier with the makeup, but in post production they added a bunch of crap to its face.

But on the other hand..... It is kind of anything, but remember, in the book he's only one solid form at a time. He kind of slowly haunts the kids

>>87607568
No one did, the tracking was at $70M tops. The miniseries was iconic but it was a piece of shit of the highest order too. I think the trailer hyped a lot of people and more people are scared of clown than I thought

>>87607568
pushing it up to a september release was the smartest thing they did. In my college town there were nothing but bored back to school college kids. The studio is making most of their money from college kids, both guys and girls. Superbly marketed film.

>>87607859
sorry but the miniseries did the book justice and was excellent. I know that doesn't seem to be the popular opinion right now, but even a couple weeks ago i rewatched it and loved it.

>>87606804
Black Panther will flop because general audience is racist who wont appreciate movies with a lot of POC.

>>87607940

racist is a commie word, dont use it, movies filled with black people are usually bad ones, and this one will be insanely unrealistic, nobody can take it seriously and immerse themselves because (((Hollywood))) african blacks wont act anything like they do in real life.

>>87603245
it's very simple.
if the prediction is correct, we are always right
if the prediction is wrong, /tv/ is not one person

>>87607865
Yeah I just always associate spoopy movie releases with october, but that makes sense.

>>87606824
It's completely unnecessary to the story. Could be cut from the novel with zero impact. The child murders on the other hand are what spark the central conflict. Defending the orgy is just weird.

>>87603423
>it's a remake
>it's modern horror

>>87604168

>>87603280
Like clockwork.
Let me help you with the fundamentals of human conversation, shit-for-brains: OP's assertion is implicitly predicated on the opinion that the average sentiment on /tv/ was that it would flop, for some subjective definition of "average". I happen to agree with OP on that, based on the only thing I have, which is also the only thing he has: personal experience on /tv/. If you disagree, I would be more than happy to read about your perspective. But instead you choose to be willfully ignorant for the sake of a six word shitpost. Fuck on off to some land of retards that's more beyond saving than /tv/ is, like /v/ or something.

Since when did normies start considering this the best of King's books? Not saying it was never ever popular, but it's definitely not his best, and I was always under the impression people held The Shining, The Shawshank Redemption and The Stand in higher esteem.

>>87606804
Black Panther will pass Wonder Woman domestically but won't do too well foreign wise. Americans love black movies

>>87603245
It was shilled like mad and it had no competition in the theaters.

>>87612179
Most people base their opinion on the kid segments and choose to remember that over the adult parts. Ask anyone who says they like the book or miniseries and they'll always talk about the kid parts because those have the most memorable scenes and the best characterization.

IT was always one of King's most popular books. Until the Dark Tower series, IT was his magnum opus. It was his real "grand epic." The Shawshank Redemption barely even counts. It was nothing more than a short story included in a collection. Rita Heyworth and the Shawshank Redemption was only 70 pages long. It's nowhere near his best story.

The Shank is by far the best King movie ever made though.

>Just looked it up on box office mojo
>It's weekend went up to $123 million domestic

I know you guys are shills because if you were here for more than a month, you'd know that most of the discussion on the board pertained to It's design, the loss potential whenever Fukunaga dropping the project, and whether it would have "that scene."
Whether or not it would flop was almost never the topic of conversation.

Making her a marionette was inspired.

I remember throughout 2015 about 40% of /tv/ thought Age of Ultron would outgross The Force Awakens.
