Stephen King's "It" (2017)

[TripleCrown9]

There were brief threads for this 7 years ago and 4 years ago, but I thought a newer one was in order.

Since all of us love remakes, they are remaking "It", and the idea is to make it a two-parter.

Release date of September 18, 2017.

Good. I read the first chapter of the book a few days ago and it was scarier than the entire film. The film is a joke.

There is so much material in the book that the movie didn't include/get right. I'm pumped for this remake.

So excited for this, IF it's done right. I just finished the novel a couple months ago, and it was an incredible read.

What? Tim Curry wasn't enough of a scary clown for you guys?? Lol.



Excited for the remake, don't dare to pick up the book again, yikes.

Edit: Will Poulter, huh? Interesting.....

The look of Pennywise in the original was great. Scenes where he didn't say anything were good like the scene where he appears behind a sheet. Most of the film was more funny than scary, and it was too long.

I don't necessarily agree that it was too long.

For the length and material of the book I think a long movie is acceptable but I just think they filled the time with too many unnecessary things.

(So yes, the original was too long based on what they used but I don't think it was too long because of the length of it alone)

Personally, I loved Tim Curry as Pennywise; might be my favorite scary movie character.

I'll definitely be seeing the re-make though; I'm a huge fan of It.
