I was wondering how to say I think so in Japanese, do you have to say 'watashi wa kore ga omoimasu' or a different thing?

3私はそう思う is how I would say it, but there may be a more common way. – JACK Mar 17 '17 at 18:40
そう思うよ/そう思いますよ。 (sou omou yo / sou omoimasu yo.) - closer to "I think so.".
そうだね/そうですね。（sou da ne / sou desu ne.) - That's right.
そうなんだ。（sou nanda.) - That's right. (but with more emphasis).
In the conversation context it is explicit that you're the one saying so there's no need to use 私は、僕は、俺は at the beginning.

You're right, is actually more grammar correct using da after sou but I see people usually dropping it – Felipe Oliveira Mar 18 '17 at 3:51

私は etc can be added for emphasis, but usually it should be understood implicitly. – bjorn Mar 18 '17 at 8:13

@bjorn in that case wouldn't you use 私が? So you'd say IT'S ME who think so (not anyone else). – Felipe Oliveira Mar 18 '17 at 21:59
