While it earned roughly 25% less than its 2017 predecessor did in its opening weekend, It Chapter Two dominated the weekend box office with an estimated $91 million debut.

That makes it the second-biggest opening weekend of all time for a horror film, behind 2017’s It, which earned $123.4 million in its bow.

It Chapter Two performed on par with the first film’s opening overseas, grossing $94 million from international markets this weekend and making it the No. 1 movie worldwide.

Here are the Top 10 domestic opening weekends of all time for R-rated horror movies (via Box Office Mojo):

SPOILER WARNING! These hands-on impressions won’t go into story details, but they will be discussing the structure, new mechanics, and themes of Celeste Chapter 9. Be warned if you’d prefer to go into it blind. 

It’s hard to tell if Celeste Chapter 9 has some of the game’s hardest levels yet, or if a year and a half of accumulated rust from not playing is just slowing me down. I’m willing to bet it’s a bit of both, but this free expansion to an already incredible game is a blast either way.

Chapter 9, titled Farewell, will be added to Celeste on all platforms tomorrow, and it feels a little bit like like a bite-sized sequel in some respects.

Just Mercy was reviewed out of the Toronto International Film Festival. The film is slated for limited release on December 25, 2019 and will go wide on January 10, 2020.

When defense attorney Bryan Stevenson (Michael B. Jordan) first meets Walter “Johnny D” McMillian (Jamie Foxx), wrongfully convicted for capital murder, a wave of skepticism hits the room. After lamenting about the lawyers that have came and went in his life with no real solution, McMillian leans in, looks Stevenson directly in his eye and asks “what you gonna go different?”

Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton (Short Term 12, Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), Just Mercy explores that difference between other lawyers in Alabama and Stevenson’s decades-long commitment to justice and fighting Death Row laws. And where the film lacks in unpredictability, it gains in passionate performances.
