IT (2017) : Jaeden Lieberher and Bill Skarsgård

[VulcanRaven]

^ Stephen King's the GOAT.

I didn't know he made a lot of the stories that birthed many of the movies I really like. I would have to agree.

 

[Lou Cypher]

I could be mistaken, but i believe hes the author with the most screen adaptions of his work.

In the fact thread i just posted this:

Stephan King is overrated

I tried to read his Dark Tower book and got turned off quick. He takes way too long to describe shit for me. Felt like I was reading some long winded IC'nigga rant.

 

[ckfree]

i read up on king a couple years back and i was surprised to find out that the movie shawshank redemption came from one of his books -- i was like WHAT because thats one of my favorite movies ever and i thought i knew everything about it -- that shit was directed, acted and scripted to perfection -- easily one of the most rewatchable movies ever

the movie had a few minor alterations from the book

Spoiler

1. the warden was 3 characters combined into 1 and he was given an important villain role

2. brooks dies in an old folks home

3. tommy doesnt try to clear andy name instead he trades his silence for a transfer to a minimum security prison

the guy who flipped the book into a script did a good job by adding to brooks story because thats some real shit

it added so much to the movie

you can change your life all you want in prison but you are in a controlled environment -- your changed life on the outside is still in your imagination -- so many folks make positive plans for their future when theyre released to only discover life on the outside doesnt unfold the way they imagined it would -- they walk out those gates and face some of the most difficult life decisions

where to live

how to repair family/friends relationships

how to earn a living with a criminal record

and some ALL AT ONCE

nevermind the effects of being locked up for so long

my dog came home from a 10 year bid last year and made some prison made tamales from out his commissary bag at my crib like i aint have the fridge full of food

easy to see why brook hung himself at that age i probably would too

but yeah king stayed giving unknown directors work he would only charge them a dollar for his short stories so they could have something to their credit -- supposedly tom cruise was almost set to play andy but he didnt want to take direction from a director that was new to the scene -- king never cashed the check he received for shawshanks movie rights instead he had it framed and sent it back to the director with a note telling him to keep it in case you ever need bail money

stephen king a real one

man Shawshank is in my top 3..

along wit Godfather and Harlem Nights..

i dont run across too many that got it up that high...

so props..

and damn..

i guess iv been sleepin on Stephen's trill huh!!?

'the only way you leaving this mfer is SHOT!'

'what the hell you think you doing with that little shit'

'stop it! stop it! dont shoot that little mfer no more'

lmao

every time i see arsenio hall i think about his ass doing all that crying in harlem nights

there are few movies that i can watch repeatedly and laugh at the same jokes each time and harlem nights is one of them

its in my top 5

but yeah shawshank is one of those rare occasions where the movie actually surpasses the book

morgan freeman narration all through is pure art

and stephen king got rejected a whole lot before his first publication -- he literally threw his best selling novel carrie in the trash after becoming discouraged -- his wife took it out of the trash and made him finish the book so i think he does this baby dollar shit to encourage/inspire young screenwriters and directors to not quit

Stupid Rotten tomatoes, wasnt nobody scared of sewer drains we were scared of clowns.

 

[CottonCitySlim]

Naw as a kid I was scarred of penny wise coming up out my sink and tub drains

 

[texas409]

when does the teaser drop?

 

[Lou Cypher]

Hasnt been announced yet. If its showing up at SXSW then hopefully we will get to see something within the next few weeks. Maybe they are holding off for comicon though or some sort of con.

 

[Broddie]

Whatever next big WB movie hits the teaser should be there. What's next? Wonder Woman?

 

[Lou Cypher]

Trailer Drops tomorrow

If you couldn't see Pennywise's face through the balloon that poster would really be a classic.

Yeah this one is just going to be the Kids. its always been a plan to have this split into 2 films though. Kid Story in one film, the adult story in the second film
