Kaylee ,'Objects In Space'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I have clearly never finished the book, though I would have sworn that I had - unless I just blocked out the scene in question for its sheer appallingness.
Tim Curry was brilliant but one weak spot in the miniseries was the monster itself - it wasn't nearly as scary as the IT in your head. I don't know whether they can capture that scariness if they try to get it on film (or cgi).
I too was disappointed with giant-glowy-space-spider in the miniseries, but then how exactly does one portray evil from outside time?
Star Trek: Wrinkly forehead
Supernatural: Eyes change colour
Vampire Diaries: Wants to sleep with Elena
Bwahaha.
Goatee?
That's how you distinguish the timeline.
A movie of It seems pointless, because they'll never be able to cast someone who will top Tim Curry as Pennywise. And if they CAN, I dont want to see that, because my brain will melt in terror.
If I were King (or whoever has final say about the movie), I'd make Curry reprising his role a condition of the film being remade. Every second of film he wasn't in could be safely jettisoned and random chance would probably result in a better version the second time around, but you're not going to find anyone who can equal that rendition of Pennywise aside from Curry himself.
"We all float down here...."
Brrrr
Saw Snow White and the Huntsman, and enjoyed it, although I thought it could have been better. Snow White could have been a stronger character, K Stew could have been a more exciting actress.... Charlize was flawless. Chris Hemsworth update: He can still get it.
