Anyone planning to see the movie?

Definitely watching, big fan of King.

I really liked it. Why the phuck is there so little fuss about this movie? The first one was nearly a masterpiece.

Looking forward to it.

Meh. The first was lackluster.

KMC's been busy with the stupid Josh Wars and the usual Disney/WB bickering.

I wasn't aware it had come out yet. I'll probably see it, not sure when.

For those who care Rotten Tomatoes has it at 66% for critics and 82% for audience.

The first movie was 86/84.

will see but not sure when

Well, plenty of sequels ended up worse than that.

I'll give it a chance.

I abandoned the franchise after the cowards didn't adapt the 12 year old gangbang.

My buddy saw this and said it's faithful to the book, but the scares are lacking and ho-hum.

They could have brought in Roman Polanski to direct the scene, it would have been done quite tastefully.

Yeah I heard the same. Much like the TV original the scares are lacking. I'd still like to see it though.

When I was a little kid the tv movie was f*cking scary.

TV original part 1 was but a lot of people say part 2 was lacking any scares

Well yeah cuz that f*cker kept laughing and doing lame things.

And I highly recommend it. It might lack scares but it's easily far darker than the first one, the adult actors are a lot better than I thought they would be, there's nice character development and the overall quality is quite nice. Only thing I didn't like is that they don't go into too much detail about Pennywise's origin but that's coming from a og book nerd.

The TV series got dusted by these movies.

No need.

Any plans for Chapter Three?

Saw this last night.

The runtime was longer than I expected(almost 3 hours.) Several scenes could have been cut down a bit to shorten this up... I know it's a adaption, but this really didn't *need* to be as long as it was, imo(the pacing was a bit muddled, so you definitely knew it was a 3hr movie.) The 'scares' were also meh for the most part. Bill Hader killed it, though.

Anyway, this was enjoyable overall, but I felt chapter 1 was the superior movie for sure.

How was Jessica Chastains wonderful rack?

Looking forward to watching this. Still cant get over Pennywise looking like he has chronic alcohol fetal syndrome though.

Yeah, I checked the info about the runtime, I was surprised too.

Disagree. I think it should have been *longer*. We barely get to know the adult versions of the Losers before they go back to Derry.

Anyway, it was a good movie. I got mixed feelings about it. Not as good as the first movie, but decent.

Originally posted by Galan007
Ya.

Fixed, you gangsta.

Saw this tonight. After really liking the first one, I found this one to be pretty disappointing. Too many jump-scares, not nearly enough tension, and far, far too much comedy.

It was funny when it was trying to be, but it wasn't scary or tense when it was supposed to be.

Seen that the director has plans to release a supercut of the two film's with new scenes.

Seeing this in 10 mins.

It is awesome. Long though. That ending is like Return of the King long.

Well...not quite...but long.

169 mins. So, it is kinda long, yeah.

I never got bored, though.

Jackson's films are in the league of their own, as far as the running time is concerned. Extended RotK = 252 mins.

I saw some snippet of a review that said some like 'IT 2 fails as a horror, but succeeds as a comedy'.

Am torn if I want to see this in the theaters or not now.

I hope someone'll come up with a cure.

Am torn if I want to see this in the theaters or not now. That's because it tries too hard to be funny at times, and crams in comedic relief where it really isn't really needed, which cheapens several of the 'scares'.

If you're a fan of the first film, I'd recommend seeing it. Don't get me wrong, I thought Chapter 2 was enjoyable, but I still liked the first one better.

Btw, I wonder what was behind the "scary" door.

And is flyattractor still alive?

First one was better.

Some of the gory/horror aspects were better in part 2.

Enjoyed it. First one was better, and feel like they could have developed the characters more in 3 hours. But still, this was cool.

The original tv series is still far superior though.

It was confirmed that Tim Curry was a goat?

Funny though.

Anyway, got back from seeing this, it was pretty good but not as good as the first. The Bowers subplot should honestly have been cut.

For me, the original is a not-so-great series elevated by Tim Curry being ****ing amazing as Pennywise.

Chapter Two is a movie with an excellent cast bogged down by a poor script.

The acting was good, especially Bill Hader. But everything else did nothing for me, I fell asleep halfway through.

Chapter 2 was better than the adult half of the mini-series, and Chapter 1 was better than Chapter 2, but I still prefer the original mini-series overall because Tim Curry brought all the charisma to Pennywise. Skarsgard does fine, but I prefer the character to have more humor. He had more humor in part 1, and even that failed to live up to the brilliance of Pennywise. Chapter 2 being nearly as long as the entire oritinal mini-series just is not necessary. Even though they technically improved on the ending, I would have preferred it be a short ending even if it was inferior. I was just ready for the movie to end.

Its not just Tim Curry.

Chapter 2 had no where near the emotional resonance of the original with Bill needing to go after IT for what happened to his brother.

Neither did James death have the same emotional impact.

But hey it had better action and special effects. So theres that.

Who the phuck is James?

And the adult half of the miniseries had considerably less focus on Bill's relationship with Georgie than even chapter 2 of the film did. The adult half of the miniseries is incredibly weak and corny.

When's the last time you've seen the miniseries?

He probably means James Ransone, who was playing Eddie.

^ Yeah meant Eddie.

More focus does not = >>>

Seriously James mcavoys talents were seriously wasted on the roll.

The adult portion and the kids portion were melded together Far better for that emotional cling.

Oh I just saw the original like the other decade. Scared the shit out of me as a kid. Ive bought it and cant wait to rewatch.

I heard the side plot of the skateboard kid was added because McAvoy thought there was something missing to Bill's adult character arc. The whole mirror scene was added for that purpose. McAvoy was right that if you take that out, he has nothing, but it also felt poorly done and shoehorned in.

I watched some of the Red Letter Media review for this and even though they didn't entirely recommend it, it made me a little more interested in seeing the films. So I may at some point.

Movie was garbage; left like halfway through.

I'd say the opposite. If you liked the tone of the first one, you'll hate this if you expect more of the same.

Movie couldn't decide what it wanted to be.

You're alive?

We are all missing Classic Mindset, but I guess you're one step from the grave these days.

Have you tried Viagra?

An epic on the scale of modern comic book movies, It Chapter Two is a big deal for the horror genre. While not flawless, there's just so much to love being back with the Losers and Pennywise.

Hoping to catch a cheap theater showing of this this weekend.

I saw it and I somewhat concur. Chapter 1 was better.

I wasn't a big fan of the seizure-inducing, strobe light Spider-Clown climax. The film did have some nice sequences, but was also sort of a mess. I felt like the script could have used some work... for example did the gay guys beaten up at the beginning have anything to do with the rest of the film?

I liked Stephen King's cameo, though. That was nice.

I'll probably give it another chance, but I found it somewhat disappointing.

This.

I wanted this movie to be so much better. I'll give it another chance at some point, but not sure if it'll get better.

The ending was even worse than I thought it would be.

"YOURE A BULLY!"

Having said that, the mini series was pretty corny and I still love it.

The miniseries is fantastic.

The ending of Chapter II was f*cking wasted with that disgraceful excuse for Spider Pennywise. What a joke that was.

I agree on just about every point with Red Letter Media's review on this one. I sympathize with both of them, but probably lean a little more toward Mike's opinion. They nailed it.

I thought they were a little too harsh on Chapter 1, but even Jay admitted that it grew on him more the second time.
