Underage gangbang
Just make it more graphic. The original movie is overall pretty good but since it was made for TV it was pretty toned down.
Just give as all the proper gore and horror of the book and I'm good.
I hope it retains the surreal, hallucinogenic nature of the scares in the novel and in the TV mini-series.
Pennywise is an ancient ethereal shape-shifting evil that feeds on fear and brings nightmares to life.
He's not just a slasher-villain.

Who is Dyerecting it?
i saw this movie when i was like 5 on VHS and it scared the living crap out of me for so long, i hid behind the fucking couch so i couldn't see the TV screen anymore. i was scared of being on my own in the back garden for months afterwards. sometimes i would realise i'm completely on my own and run straight inside.
she tried to show it was a movie, he got rekt and wasn't real but fuck. i don't think i ever saw a movie as scary, i even used to watch shit like terminator and robocop at this time.
though i think it was around the time ghostwatch aired for the first time on BBC and that scared the living shit out of me.

That's actually not bad, other than what's her name being a tomboy but I guess that fits with her being an outcast.
I'll take it.
>>71615282
We know that's the cast, they didn't say that was a production shot.
>>71615323

>>71615282
I think this is a cast photo. If I recall the kid portion is set in the 80s but that may have changed. I'd prefer the 50s as well
>>71613016
People who haven't read the books don't even know that the underrage train ran on her is what saves them in the end. Literally saves them. Was not a legit gangbang, she fucks one after the other.

For immediate failure. They shouldn't even bother.
Hope they keep the book's orgy scene in

>>71615528
>most people have read the book
Get this hothead outta here
>>71614636
I agree, but they're going to have to be careful with it. I think the TV miniseries showed pretty definitively that some on the scares in the book don't work on screen, like when Pennywise takes the shape of the teenage werewolf. Yeah, sure, it makes sense that a preteen in the 50s might see that movie, be scared shitless by it, and then his imagination builds the werewolf up into something far more frightening than it was on screen and THAT'S what Pennywise uses... but you can't really duplicate that on screen. It'll just look like teen wolf. There are some scares that genuinely work in the book (the standpipe sequence is unnerving) and I hope the filmmakers have the wherewithal to know which ones they can make work on screen and which ones they can't.
I'm also hoping the movie(s) actually use some of the cosmic stuff from the book, like The Turtle or the Ritual of Chud.
>>71615499
LOL
Of course I haven't read the book faggot. Reading Stephen King is not something to be proud of (and yes I've read enough of his other trash to know this)
>>71615548
What was it then? I have read it 3 times. They ran a train on Bev in the sewers. Not necessarily an orgy, but they fucked her one after the other.
>>71615528
Seriously. Only 12 year olds who read about it on some buzzfeed article try to bring it up for shock value.
>>71615590
>What was it then?

>>71615598
I don't bring it up for shock value, I bring it up to remind everyone how retarded this franchise is
>>71615657
It's a book. Not a franchise. And that's one questionable scene in a 1500 page book.
>>71615680
'It' is a book and several films
I'd say that's a franchise by this point
>>71615638
Dude looks effectively creepy.
>>71615564
Scariest bits for me in the book were always:
>Standpipe kids
>Pennywise on the frozen river
>the Leper
>Bev and the sink, or anytime the voices of dead kids speak out of drains or it's implied Pennywise can pull anybody down through a drain, like that poor kid he drowned in the toilet
>Audra's late night visit
>>71615573
>Hates King
>admits to reading several of his books
>in a Stephen King thread
Do you purposefully waste your time arguing about things you hate or is it a side effect of the autism?
>>71615590
Exactly. A train is far more accurate. It's just annoying when people say "lol kid orgy huhuhuh" like it was a Coke fueled fuckfest.
>>71615657
Well at least you admit to being 12 years old.
We need Pennywise to be more menacing. Curry was good but he was still like 75% whimsical and 25% terrifying when it should be more like 60/40.
Also I wouldn't mind seeing the actual flashbacks, like the gangster shooting and the burning of the black soldier's bar.
>>71615780
>like it was a Coke fueled fuckfest
Right, it wasn't just some orgy.
It was a tender and emotionally fulfilling group love-in.
>>71615680
The thing about that scene is that, weird and grungy and creepy as it is, it's sort of the heart of the book. The book's about a lot of things, but most of all it's about how painful it is to grow up. King basically spells out in that scene that "It is a metaphor" for sex, being the word kids us for sex. It's the doorway from childhood to adulthood, and it can be scary as shit to a kid, but in the end growing up is natural and sex doesn't need to be scary. The Losers have positive, life-affirming sex, and in that moment stop being children, rejecting the horror and fear of "It."
Of course, it's also a scene in which sixe preteen boys rail one preteen girl in a dirty sewer pipe. It's never going to make it into the fucking movie.
>>71615227
me in the middle
>>71615822
I still kinda wish this was a Netflix miniseries in the vein of "Stranger Things" and then they'd have the freedom to just spend a whole episode on Mike Hanlon researching Derry's past.
>>71615876
That could be cool. I mean ultimately it's that important to the overall story but they were cool stories and it'd be nice to see them.
>>71615822
In the book, every time Pennywise was on the attack (which isn't often; most of the time It attacks or kills someone in the book It isn't in the shape of Pennywise) he had black, empty eye sockets and a way-too big mouth full of needle-like teeth and his clown lipstick looked like blood. They really need to keep that shit it, Pennywise isn't scary as just a clown, he's scary when you realize the clown is just a mask over something much worse.
>>71615955
Exactly. Sadly there was just a little too much Tim Curry in the performance.
>>71615894
Yeah, Derry's history, and all the non-Losers club stories about Pennywise's attacks, was at times more interesting to me than the main story. The weight of how long Pennywise had been around, how thorough his hold on the town was, and how many thousands of lives he had ruined over the centuries really made his presence seem more oppressive and threatening later on.
>>71616023
Right, IT is scarier as a concept than it is in actual reality. Kids can be afraid of a spider but it takes an adult to be afraid of something that has always existed and has terrorized the planet and the universe since the beginning of time.
I wonder how the movies will actually play out. When you get right down to it, the two separate plots of IT are really very basic.
Plot A: seven kids in the 1950s each have an individual encounter with a supernatural monster mixed in with some vignettes about their home life and their run ins with the bully. They collectively get together, fight the monster once, then fight it a second time. End of story.
Story B: The seven kids are adults, we get a series of vignettes about their adult lives, then they all go back to their hometown, each have one run in with the same supernatural monster each, fight their childhood bully again, and then go down in the sewers to fight the monster again, all in the span of one day and night.
The book makes these two fairly simple stories work by cutting back and forth between them, plus mixing in some history interludes. But from what I understand, the movies will tell story A in the first movie and story B in the second movie. I'm not sure how well they'll hold together when told in that straight linear fashion. They were never designed to be. If you just told Story A straight up, with none of the adult stuff, it's structure would make no goddamn sense, being frontloaded with a ton of individual character stuff and with them actually functioning as a team and fighting the monster all crammed into the last third.
>>71616272
They did the same thing with the first movie.
>>71616470
That movie had a ton of flashbacks between the past and present, though. Also, it wasn't very good, I'd say at least due in some part to its structure.
I hope the soundtrack incorporates creepy real-world children's rhymes into it, sung by a children's choir. Or maybe does a Nightmare on Elm Street style creepy kid's rhyme alluding to the true horror of Derry. That always seemed like it would be appropriate for a film adaptation of the book.

What a bunch of cucks. I bet you faggots love watching the new Fatbusters and probably praise every GOT episode.

What are those things and what do they have to do with IT?
I've never read the book, the mini-series sucked but Curry's performance was great. I don't think much of the story (from what I know), but the very concept of the It is rather fascinating and someone like David Lynch or Cary Fukunaga could do wonders with it. I have no faith in this adaptation whatsoever mainly because I think they'll be fishing for cheap jumpscares and basic cable gore.
>>71615756
the frozen river scene is terrifying.
if they're really subtle about it, baloons swaying the other way, then it'll be god tier.
>>71612955

Yeah I know nigga just wondering if they'll do it in the film. Like the clown is King Crimson.

I wonder if it will have the kid who kills the pupper. It was the most disturbing and memorable scene for me along with the feverish ranting about the space turtle.
stephen king is pure unadultured trash.
He's the JK rowling of grown ups, the original dan brown, a first class hack and a creepy looking motherfucker.
King SUCKS ASSHOLE.
>>71619618
Yeah, Pennywise is at his most scary when the characters are slowly noticing all the things about him that don't add up.
>>71623905
I sort of doubt they'll include all the Universal monsters in the movie. Those bits were often the least scary moments of the book.
>>71624145
Well, the cast that part, so clearly the creepy little fuck is in the movie.

To all who come to this horrible place, Welcome.
>>71612955
they need to flesh out the whole story and setting. the aesthetic of the 1950s with the backdrop of a monster murdering children. they better not change the time periods because theyre just as essential as any other part of the book. Theyre so much backstory to the town of derry, the characters and even pennywise but theyre probably going to do away with most of it and just focus on the kids, the monster and pop culture references.
HBO should have just turned it into a mini series
>>71615564
its possible, they just need to take time and build the tension and story. to just have pennywise show up like that with no build up would fall flat
It'll also help if they keep the time periods the same. making it modern like they said they would do would be terrible. Like kids today would go out in play rather then be inside on their phones

I'd be okay with it if they set the kids stuff in the 80s, gave it something of a Spielberg-Amblin feel.
>>71627066
it wouldnt be the same. part of the reason IT worked so well as a book was the picture perfect innocent 50s setting as they were children, then the 80s setting as the were adults.
they better not pussy out with any of the murders. It doesnt have to be gore pron but there were some pretty creepy killings that would look awesome on screen
>adrian melon

Ii remember the tv movie would have a character say something like "oh yeah so and so was found dead, theres a child killer out there"
>>71615227

Which is the best version of the book to own? I have this one.
>>71627147
Right, but think about the audience for this book. A lot of people who read it as kids grew up in the late 80s early 90s, and it's an idealized version of that period that defines childhood to them. I think it could be just as effective.
>>71627610
I dont know, a lot of the scares for that setting. to change the times means they have to "update" a lot of things and essentially re-write it, which they already talked about with cary was still on board
>>71615876
>>71616023
>>71626919
>>71627610
>>71627722
no mater what (if theyre smart) they need to show derry through the ages. Pennywise was around for literally centuries, Mike had a whole book of his research about whenever it would wake up and start eating people. If theyre smart theyre dedicate some time to this
>>71612955
I hope it ends up not being made.

I'm worried about the lenght of the movie
The TV movie was 3 hours long and even then left a lot of important stuff out and rushed things
>>71628180
Imagine Stephen King, 3 AM in Bangor Maine some time in 1984 writing that scene, blood trickling from his nose due to his last bump, hands quivering as he types, legs pistoning under the table and jiggling his rock hard erection.
He pauses every so often to massage his cock, finally erupting into orgasm as in the novel he's creating the nigger enters Bev's waiting gash.
Degenerate.
>>71628251
They're breaking it into two movies.
>>71615307
>Been confirmed for an R rating
Didn't Fukunaga said he walked out of the project because the producers wanted a PG-13 movie?
I have no hopes for it. There's a 99.9% chance that it's going to be a flashy CGI shit fest. It's going to be terrible.
>>71628557
No, he said he walked out because they kept challenging his ideas as he wrote the script. He never said anything about the rating.
>>71628624
>This.
The rating was never the problem. The studio was insisting on casting that fucking Howdy Doody looking dude as Pennywise and was also forcing him to film in Canada instead of Maine for budgetary reasons. I'm sure there were other issues but those were the 2 big ones. Funny because they ended up casting someone else anyways. Don't know where it's shooting tho.
I really hope they go all out with it. Fans of the book won't be happy unless it's a hard R.
>>71615195
>they're all kids
so does this movie only cover the flashback parts?
More like, shIT.
Does /tv/ like Bev
They should find a way to at least get Tim Curry to do the voice again. I know he had a stroke and probably can't but if they could get his retardedly good voice acting in there it'd be fucking amazing as long as the rest isn't made into a PG-13 shitshow.

>>71629780
Surrr i can do eet giv werk pls
>>71630669
I believe they confirmed it is. Fukunaga said the studio never had a problem with that part.
>>71627329
Also Pennywise in the miniseries would repeatedly just threaten the Losers instead of actually trying to kill them.
>>71628479
Really? That's good then
They will get even more hours than the TV movie
>>71628294
Stevie does it for a dime.
Stevie does it anytime.
>>71632921
It was legit afraid of them. It knew they could defeat It together. It usually picked off kids when they were alone. And doing shit like threatening Bev through the drain actually scared the shit out of her.
Now Eddie's shower scene, which was invented for the miniseries, not sure what they were thinking. They never explain how Eddie got out of there or why It didn't kill him.
>we'll never see a 12 hour TV-MA miniseries that adapts all the book including Derry's sordid history
just die in the sewers already
>>71612955
they should just cut out the entire second half of the story where they're adults.
the part with the kids was way better in the miniseries, and I don't understand the point of having them defeat IT twice in one story.
>>71616708

>swamp thing not climbing up from under the bridge and ripping some lads head off isn't a scary part of the book
Wew, I bet you were scared of ol' Paul Bunyan though
>>71629780
Absolutely not. Much like Nicholson as Joker there was just too much of the actor in the character. We need something fresh.
>>71633571
Richie also got away from the werewolf way too easy in the miniseries.
>>71634261
Nah, Bunyan sucked too. Standpipe, Leper, and the Black Spot fire are the scariest bits.
>>71635252
The children never really feel in danger in the first movie. They need to up that as well as show the kids who did get killed so the danger feels real. Otherwise Pennywise just feels like a prankster.
>>71612955
literally red IT: the movie
>>71635333
Yeah. In the book it's clear Pennywise is trying to kill the kids during each initial encounter. The bird. The leper. The book. The mummy. The Standpipe. Even the sink. The kids escape through luck, wits, or through the power of their belief, not because Pennywise goes easy on them.
