That’s...really freaking absurd on so many levels. The common goal is obvious enough: Acceptance, comradre, and support. Somewhere in the last 20 years it became “EVERYONE FOR THEMSELVES TO THE TOP OF THE HILL!” and damn anyone in your way. Its kinda disgusting.

I’ve had huge awakening to how much certain members of the Lesbian community treat Transgenders as a whole. Staggering. The concept of a racist gay man also totally blew my mind out of the water.

Mike’s role as a chronicler as a child was very, VERY infantile. He was aware of the Iron Works explosion, but that and the other disasters weren’t ever discussed in the book. He didn’t really start on the path of becoming the town Chronicler until his father explains the dark side of Derry on his death bed. The 90s…

I’d love to see Judith in the mirror, rising up out of the bath behind Stan, which makes him freak out and slit his own throat.

I see one interesting possibility here: I really want to see Richie become a youtube celeb, and have Pennywise fuck around with his videos the way he fucked around with that TV show that was always in in Chapter 1.

I think a very simple solution to this is if they can recount the Smoke Hole incident, of which Richie and Mike are the ones to have seen IT’s origins through a mind-altering ritual. With that knowledge in mind, the story leaves a logical opening for Mike to be willing to risk his own sanity to pursue further…

Pretty much seems to be the idea.

Not really. I can’t recall if it’s the book or the 90s miniseries, but I remember some sort of line about Mike returning to the sewers to try and find IT, half hoping it would kill him.

Here’s the thing...None of the characters should technically be ‘suffering’ except for Mike. It’s never explicitly said why, but all of the characters were given extremely wealthy lifestyles. So having Eddie toil as just an uber driver wouldn’t really match what’s needed. What IT has done, if we take some of the…

Well...this is...a different thing than I was expecting.

Working my butt off, part time student, pushing well past what my body is able to handle, and have about maybe 100 dollars pocket cash and no savings at the end of the month.

I don’t watch cable TV, and I don’t much want to subscribe to hulu. So I’ve pretty much not seen anything major shows till the hit DVD seasons, and I have the spare cash for them.

Again, it’s not even relief. It’s mind altering to ‘see’ parts of IT that the normal mind can’t. So that’s really different from the traditional idea of a junkie. He’s not escaping things, he’s flinging himself at IT and it’s entire history through mental visions and altered mind states.

TV has it’s own problems though. Smaller budget, more restraint on content, limited access, wait times, etc.

Because IT is a 1,138 page book set in two distinct decades. That is a long ass book, and it’s not an easy thing to justify for a horror movie which is aimed for September, and already had it’s potential fanbase against seeing it in the first place. The hype that IT has gotten only really managed to kick off after the…

Mmm, but whose saying these words? I ask because IT is the only King book I’ve 100% committed myself to.

To be fair, I find that King is obsessed with ANY minority that has been on the wrong end of the church and government since McCarthiesm and Civil Rights. IT has a large running theme of homophobia issues, with Eddy coding HARD as gay, and a gay man being victimized by both bullies and IT is the first death of the new…

I suppose. But I actually like the idea of a character who resorts to desperate, self harming measures in the pursuit of an obsession to fight evil. It takes a little bit of mental gymnastics to connect this with the image of POC as junkies chasing highs because they’re low income and desperate. Somebody will make…

People like you are why these white kids are allowed to grow up and become rapists and murders. Benefit of the doubt is one thing, but there’s a point where you already know everything you need to know. All you’re doing is giving their highly paid lawyers the chance to spin stories so they can get off as free as…

._.: You are disgusting. Go to hell.
