If you're one of the fans getting your ticket early online, you're not alone:

" target="_blank">according to Deadline Hollywood, This Is It has accounted for a whopping 61% of all online ticket sales this week. Of those buying, almost half reported developing a renewed interest in the artist's work after his death in June.

On the other hand, it opens this week without too much blockbuster release competition. But with Where the Wild Things Are still fresh and a few other well-performing films in theaters now, commanding 3/5 of online ticket sales is definitely pretty impressive.
