“Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” was the movie to finally take down “Deadpool & Wolverine”. It brought in $110 million in its opening weekend.
That’s now the second-best September opening of all time! Can you guess the first?
I’ll give you a hint. It was a movie back in 2017.
It brought in $123 million on its debut weekend.
It featured Pennywise The Clown. And if you said “It”, you got it!
“Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” now becomes the 3rd best opening of 2024, behind “Deadpool & Wolverine” (which brought in $211.4 million) and “Inside Out 2” (which brought in $154.2 million).

Laura McKenna grew up in Ohio and got her first job in radio in La Crosse in 2005. She packed up her stuff, made the move, and has been in Wisconsin ever since! Her favorite season is winter but she loves to spend all summer in her vegetable garden. When she isn’t in her pink kitchen cooking up vegetarian recipes, more than likely she’s taking bubble baths, reading mystery novels (sometimes while in a bubble bath), cheering for THEE Ohio State Buckeyes, or officiating weddings! She married her best friend from college last year but they still don’t live in the same house yet. Laura’s favorite way to spend a Friday night is watching Dateline with her cat (Phil Dawson) on her lap. She’s thrilled to be keeping you company during the workday!
