IT (2017) : Jaeden Lieberher and Bill Skarsgård

Spoiler

It was a child of The Crimson King (Dark Tower's big bad) who dwelled in the macroverse along with the turtle and the creatures from The Mist.

So all Stephen kings books are linked?

In the greater scheme of things? Yeah. Only really in the sense that they are all part of the same multiverse.

How is sleepwalkers linked?

Bitch they all float

 

[CottonCitySlim]

Also of course the original movie aged badly, it's almost 30 years old

The movie wasn't scary but had great atmosphere

Can't wait to see what they do with the adults

Spoiler

That library scene, wonder if it was intentional the librarian creepy ass in the distance

 

[Lou Cypher]

I enjoyed it even more after the second watch. Best big horror movie to come out in a long long time

You didn't see sinister?

I did. Shit wasn't special to me. I don't see a whole lot of horror films in theaters though and that is probably a big reason why I don't enjoy a lot of them. Theater makes a lot of movies more scary with the atmosphere and audio

 

[Lou Cypher]

Cast the kids as adults for the sequel:

Bill - Michael Pitt (Couldnt really come up with anyone)

Ben - Chris Pratt

Bev - Jessica Chastain

Edddie - Rami Malek

Mike - André Holland

Stan - Zach Woods

Richie - Bill Hader

Pretty dope list, especially Chastain as bev and Hader As richie, I can definitely see those haha.

I guess the kids WILL be involved in the second film. Director says there will be flash back scenes incorporated for story and to also give glimpses of pennywise origin.

I think having a well known cast for the sequel could be very distracting, i'd rather they mostly use lesser known actors.

I'll admit that Pratt and Hader are spot on though.

 

[TheNightKing]

I'm just liking the fact that the adult portion will be set in the modern day with more relatable people. If I recall correctly, the adults from the original seemed like wack nerds and geeks. Like they couldn't grow out of that, smh.

Maybe it's more plausible today though that growing out of nerdy awkwardness would happen.

 

[sapp08_2001]

Dope horror movie. Shit was better than expected. Cant wait for part 2

 

[lazypakman]

Enjoyed it.

Thought the first 2 acts were terrific, the film completely changed in tone the exact moment Bowers offed his old man and after that the changes they made i didn't feel were neccessary, but because they got so much right i'll allow it.

Dude who played Pennwise better be in contention for something, he dissapeared into that role....that freaky shit he was doing with his eyes rolling them back one side is actually his party trick and not cgi.

 

[lazypakman]

They really rinsed the hell out of the 80's setting with the references lol, the first scene with pennywise reaching out with his extended arm to grab georgie was a shoutout to freddy in his first scene where he has the long arms in the alley, I caught the Poltergeist one and a few others as well.

Loved the movie.

(I'm shit w remembering character names..)

Off the bat, there was no Killer Klown reference. There were clowns but no KKFOS in the room.

The role of Pennywise was perfection. I felt very uneasy when he was around. His eyes, him drooling, the way he spoke, the way he stared and smiled. Shit was the perfect way to make you feel so uncomfortable.

The scene where he was about to consume the Jewish kid was wild. That painted lady was freaky as shit.

When the kids were throwing those rocks and PW was chilling eating a child's arm and he waved with it.

The bathroom scene w the hair grabbing the girl and the blood spewing everywhere was amazing and its symbolism was dope too, both during and when they did the clean-up.

When the black kid was gonna smack the fuck outta PW w the pipe and he opened his mouth and stopped it w all those burnt hands. Fuckin dope.

Him coming out of the safe all broken and snapping back into place was a crazy as shit. Funny how him being "twisted" was both literal in body and mind.

Lotta classic scenes. I gotta watch this again.

and what are these deadlights?

Spoiler

The girl seen them and was put into a suspended animation. The kids said it's because she wasn't afraid. So all the floating kids are being held off until they start fearing? I read that the deadlights have some insanity effect, but the girl wasn't effected by them. Why? Will the rest of those kids be "insane" later in life? and I think @Broddie said "smh" to them showing the lights, why?

I'm not familiar w Kings works like that. I dislike reading fiction, I'd rather watch it.

I thought she was affected tho? Hence her being put in that suspended animation. Cuz as soon as he showed them, she went into that trance.

I read it makes them insane? That's why I was asking. I'm not familiar w all this stuff.

 

[iron man1]

Saw this last night loved it and trying to see it again definitely. Skarsgard and the kid actors shut this shit down.

 

[VIBE]

Just dawned on me what the Killer Klowns From Outer Space nod was..

Spoiler

The puppet scene

Officer Mooney is used as a puppet before the klown walks toward Dave.

Pennywise is using Georgie as a puppet and runs toward Bill.
