IT

I’m dying to see your reaction to the second part of It . That’s where you’ll get the Pennywise backstory—and the story completion. In the book, you don’t learn about the genesis of Pennywise until later. A fair criticism would be that the film makers don’t tell you up front that this movie is only the first half of the whole story. Is chapter 2 in your pipeline?

I absolutely loved this movie, not many films accomplish horror comedy well. The cast really elevated this film too, the kids were casted so well and just played their roles brilliantly. 👌🏼 The second movie is definitely worth a watch as well. While this film was better, the second follows the Losers as adults and still lived up to the novel, which was good enough for most fans.

King himself said he loved that interpretation, so why are you knocking the second film. Most people loved it, the movie was kept pretty true to the book (no major changes). By your definition of the original metaphor being childhood trauma: I'd day being belittled and treated like shit about your sexuality is constituted as childhood trauma.

A few days ago, we lost one of the truly amazing actors of a generation. William Hurt had an incredible career. I wanted to suggest that you react to one of his movies to honor his life. I would recommend: Children of a Lesser God (1986) Broadcast News (1987) The Big Chill (1983)

Ok, I've resisted seeing this movie until now. Thanks to the requester for the experience. The saving grace is having Dillon taking the brunt of the jump-scares for us. I'm grateful, mate...

Dillon in that library scene was hilarious! Everything after "Who the hell?" was iconic! He was traumatized! His screams were everything! I think I rewound that scene like 20 times just to laugh at his trauma, lmao. Also that you'll float, too scene with Georgie in the cellar shook Dillon so bad he was screaming actual gibberish! I live for him! He is so funny! This reaction made my day. His screams are so hilarious! Great movie pick! I hope he watches Part 2.

I just have to keep telling myself that it's only Bill Skarsgård. Harmless. No big deal...

I'm deathly afraid of clowns... Why am I doing this to myself? Oh well...let's do this. xD

i want to see your reaction to the end of "WandaVison". You have four episodes to go. Don't know if you have the time to do all at once, After episode six, you start getting some end credit scenes, so check. love your comments even if you seem to ramble some time, i do too. Keep up the good work.

Shut up idiot... People love 2 and there is nothing u can do about besides cry for a diaper change.

Yea the second one is good but obviously not as good as the first one but still definitely worth a watch in my opinion :) and if I'm remembering correctly, we learn more about pennywise in the second movie

If this is Pt1 of the two films, the first part even creeped me out in the theaters. 😱 Just don’t raise your hopes for It: Chapter Two like we did: Overconfident with success, the director suddenly wandered off of the second half of Stephen King’s book, decided to make one of the characters closet-gay, and steered the ENTIRE story into a metaphorical soapbox-plea against gay-bullying. (When King’s original metaphor was simply about our childhood traumas in adulthood.) Umm, yeah—When the director of a smash hit film decides the sequel is now his own private Facebook page, that’s usually referred to as “Lost World syndrome”. 🙄

Fun Facts, Bill Skarsgård the Actor who plays IT or also Known as Pennywise, can actually separate his eyes like IT in real life, look it up. Seeing people reacting then he does it, is pretty funny xD
