I think it’ll do well. As well as It or Deadpool? Hard to say.
I love Joaquin Phoenix, the character is iconic, but I have about zero trust in Todd Phillips to do anything beyond a dumb popcorn flick, so we’ll see (when I watch it opening day, of course).

From what I've gathered most of the hype has been from geek sites and most of the perfect reviews come from those sites, so maybe this will be popular there but less so outside of geek culture?
