You’re in a very distinctly small minority. A well placed jump scare works when the threat is actually there, and with Pennywise, it is.

Your opinion’s been disqualified for generically using the term “Generic”.

1. I love, love, love the camera work in this. It has a fantasy quality that a lot of modern horror movies never even consider employing. That’s good, if you remember the Forward in the book, and Stephen KIng’s comments on such things.

As far as I’m concerned, Ryuji is a welcomed addition to the Bro club. It takes a certain kind of patience to enjoy the kind of screw ups Junpei, Yosuke, and Ryuji can be, but I love all three of those dudes right now.

Ehr...what?

I’m getting a ridiculously strong “Will and Elizabeth 2.0" vibe off these two new protagonists. On the one hand, I’m very happy to have Jack be a deuterogonist again. Its what he was conceived to be, and what he does best. If you base the film completely on him, you get Stranger Tides, and that was a really less than…

Where have we seen Will getting squidy?

That’s kinda the point of Pennywise in the book. He’s not scary, so much as confusing and alarmingly out of place wherever he pops up.

When was the last time you watched the tv mini series? TIm Curry is like, level 10 creepy for most of the time he’s on screen. There’s nothing regular about the way he depicted Pennywise, let alone elegant. I think you’re editing your own memories to suit an argument that has no legs to stand on.

The main difference here is that Skarsgard IT feels a lot more...duplicitious. Tim Curry never tries to play Pennywise as ‘nice’ and that’s fine. He takes the person from Creepy Level 7 to Creepy Level 10 with a single twitch of his facial muscles, but the fact is he never leaves level 7 even when he’s supposed to be…

How is this “Trying too hard?”

So in 60 years we can watch JonTron guilt free?

You can’t help people like him. You can only hope the next generation does better, which according to history, is usually a case. JonTron is a sad, lost cause, as racists always are.

Its really simple: If you say terrible racist things, you are a terrible person. There’s nothing complicated or extreme about that. There has so far been nothing out of scope in this treatment.

Things get complicated when you consider how much racism by association that we ‘grandfather’ into our culture.

Pull another out of the tree trunk that acts as a quiver.

And one black person, although because he’s covered in head to foot, its hard to tell.

Keith Stanfield...in a burka. Just...what?

I told myself something similar for both Dragon Ball Evolution and Black Butler. Both movies were the longest experiences of my life.

I am getting vivid flashbacks to the Dragon Ball Evolution and Black Butler movie, and how very unlike the anime/manga that was. I’d be surprised if we even have L or the rest of the cast in here.
