12 Huge Movies That IT Destroyed At The Box Office

8. Most Of The X-Men Franchise

Box Office: X-Men ($296.3 million), X-Men: First Class ($353.6 million), X-Men Origins: Wolverine ($373.0 million), X2 ($407.7 million), The Wolverine ($414.8 million), X-Men: The Last Stand ($459.3 million), and X-Men: Apocalypse ($543.9 million)

The X-Men franchise has been consistently churning out solid box office hits for almost two decades now, yet even with the easy success of the superhero genre and most of the series' entries having PG-13 ratings, the It remake has still beaten all but three of the ten X-Men movies to date.

Ironically, Pennywise has yet to triumph over the only two R-rated X-Men movies, Deadpool and Logan (though at the time of press it is imminently set to beat Logan's $616.7 million final total), as well as 2014's Days of Future Past.

While it has zero chance of taking over Days of Future Past ($747.8 million) or Deadpool ($783.1 million), the fact that It will have soon enough outgrossed 80% of the mammoth franchise is staggering.

With the last core X-Men movie, 2016's Apocalypse, proving underwhelming at the box office, it also seems pretty likely that next year's X-Men: Dark Phoenix will also fall victim to the shapeshifting clown-monster.
