Let's discuss the Modern adaptation of IT

Ikr its fucking awesome

guess he just has a more realistic view of kids than the general public

Still waiting for the documentary to get released

Maybe they could one day make an R rated animated movie that includes 98% of all the book material, how pennywise should look, and the trippy ass ritual scenes they couldn't include in both adaptations. Maybe the same thing should happen with GoT too.

Just because most people that are realistic know that children want to, and sometimes even do have sex, orgies / gangbangs are not common, and you shouldn't talk about them.

I think this has the potential to be very very scary. It's the clown meme that gets in the way.

There are no words for the original sewer scene

If they made it boring and dark and according to the book and strictly the books they can really come up with a masterpiece.

This just isn't it.

The first chapter sucked ass. Horrible CGI and it wasn't scary. Pennywise barely had any screen time. Kids banter all seemed improvised and empty. Half the time they talk too goddamn fast to understand what they were saying. Overall it just sucked.
Chapter 2 was far better.

What?

the cgi on chapter 2 was worse nigger, that spider-clown hybrid was hideous, and the way it deflates its fucking comedy. I know its a fucking clown but It should be terrifying.
curry did it right.
the adaptation was good aside from that, but implying that richie is gay was, well gay and stupid.
also it pawns where left aside except for bowers and he was quickly dispatched. i would like to see It trying to manipulate bill using audra, or rogan chashing after bev and clearly stating that theyre It pawns.

I think that if they combined both the story from the OG movie and the graphics from the Modern one, they'd really make a movie that might be in top 10

I knew they were going to make Richie you-know-what. I don't get why all these people are like "it was a surprise!". No, it wasn't a surprise. I knew Richie loved him because in the book, he kisses him on the cheek before they leave.

I really loved the Chapter 1 movie, I think it did justice to the book, but I "DIDN'T LIKE THE ENDING" of Chapter 2. I had some problems with the final showdown...

First, Mike isn't in the final showdown in the book, but that doesn't mean he wasn't an important character. They insisted on putting him in there in the movie, and I wouldn't have had a problem with it if they didn't make him so cheesy. He also "steals" this stupid jar thing from Native Americans, and recklessly risks the Losers' lives with his really dumb plan. None of that is in the book. Mike is a way cooler character in the book, even if he's totally absent from the showdown. I really hated this.

Second, they left SOMEONE ALONE. What the hell? In the book, one of them stays behind JUST TO BE THERE and to hold him until the end. They totally cheapened their characters when they ditched him to do their stupid final battle with Pennywise, which doesn't even happen this way in the book...

That's the last big problem I had. Its true form is so corny in the movie. In the book, it's actually all really scary and dire, and it's amazing how they ever win. And if I'm remembering correctly I think it was only Bill and Richie who strike the finishing blow. The whole "power of belief" thing is a lot less corny when it's just two of them

Whatever... It's my favorite book, so I guess I still like the movies because I'm a fan... I understand, though. It was probably not easy to fit that huge story into 2 movies. I'm OK, I still liked it

*whispers*
(I wanted Roland to fuck Jake)

OK that sounds stupid, I guess it did happen sort of in the same way in the book. I DON'T KNOW...…. The clown was just so dumb -_______- why is it a clown...… it's not supposed to be a clown... omg...

No, I always ALWAYS thought Richie was gay for him from the book

stop trying to get it turned into an anime. it's not going to happen.

I LOVE STEPHEN KING!!!

My nigga that last thing I would want would be another anime. Do you really think people could buy all the trippy space out of body fighting with real people and cgi? I think animation would defiantly give a lot more freedom to stay a lot more closer to the books instead of using actors and building all these sets.

You're not wrong, but I NEED LIVE ACTION!
I NEED IT

Weaksauce.

We were supposed to "get" references to The Thing and The Dead Zone and feel really fucking clever just as a distraction from how dull this adaptation was.

You know why Tim Curry rocked the first adaptation? Because his Pennywise thought he had it in the bag. He's just so casual about shit because he doesn't worry at all. Meanwhile, new kid is just hamming it up.

Really disliked them killing Hocksetter out of nowhere. His little bit in the book was fucking freaky.

Did the deadlights all wrong. They're supposed to be orange. Should have made them the color of circus peanuts.

Changing the time period was ultimately stupid. By the 1980s, nobody liked clowns anymore. What made Pennywise disturbing is that in the 1950s, clowns were still a thing. Maybe a little odd, but only a few kids disliked them.

Of course, they still dressed Bev like she was from the 1950s.

I can see them cutting out Bill's wife and Bev's husband, but ... Henry Bowers was dispatched too easily. We were supposed to have FIVE go down there, not SIX.

omg, don't remind me of THAT refrigerator scene
I'm going to cry

Part 1 was much better

Patty cakes is supposed to try sucky sucky on Henry *wink*

original IT has a better clown
new IT has better children

it's good, really good, way better than the crab they made in the early 90's; the only redeeming quality there was Tim Curry. It strays pretty far from the book, but that's to be expected; there is no way in hell they could've ever made a film adaption true to the book; it would be two weeks long and rated beyond X.

And this is coming from someone who loves the book, and is a constant reader of Sai King.

fuck off, tryhard.. all kids play house and do the whole "show me yours I'll show you mine" thing; including you unless you were one shut-in weird as fuck kid. King is a genius.

well put.

wat

that shit made no sense

dude wat

I don't like it, I also don't like the original

Tim Curry had a predatory personality, which made the villain scary in a more natural way, to children; I haven't seen the new films but, based on the trailers, Pennywise looks more like a boring mindless monster that just jumpscares weak-minded hipsters who attended the theater because "they watched the original one".

The part in the book when they run out of matches is ---SO SCARY---

>Changing the time period was ultimately stupid
idunno bout that.. I'm Gen X, making me the same generation the kids are in the new film and I had the idea of taking the whole story and upping it a generation from Boomers to X some five years ago, upon reading the book for the 17th. time -I read first being 15 years old in 1991. To me, that fact alone adds to the whole spookiness.. someone fucking read my mind, and made my favourite book be about MY generation. Eerie, but it's fun nonetheless.

not him, but yeah.. scariest, saddest and coldest shit ever put to words in fiction.

I take it you like not liking things; now let's hear all about your take on the Star Wars sequel trilogy.

Not the user you quoted. You mean the prequels?

no, I mean the sequels; hence why I wrote "sequels".

Which are the prequels????

I THINK He means episode 7 and 8
*Ahem*
I PERSONALLY really LIKE 7, fight me

bruh.. you're either retarded or being deliberately obtuse.

123 = prequels
456 = original trilogy
789 = sequels

derp

I like 7 and 6, and the prequels. I like Jar Jar. Everybody fucking fight me.

>7 and 6
8.. 7 and 8.. ... .. . dammit

HEY GUYS
YO
GUIZ
LOL LISTEN HERE

*farts*

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAHHHH
