I’m gonna say it does. Mostly because I think the ending ruled and don’t understand anyone’s opinions and thought process any more.

I don't think the ending was bad, per se, but when you literally have a running gag of "ha ha, the guy who wrote this is poo poo at endings," you're gonna call attention to all the flaws in the ending you have coming up. E: also, the guy playing Eddie had powerful Harry Dean Stanton energy and it kept distracting me through the whole movie Babysitter Super Sleuth fucked around with this message at 04:06 on Sep 7, 2019 |

I've seen a couple people post on Facebook that It Chapter 2 had "unnecessary violence against LGBT" and "ruined" the movie for them, but I haven't gotten any details. Does that ring a bell? Can someone spoiler? Because I'm curious.

Both of the new Its have issues, but I’m astounded by the amount of people who insist the 90s miniseries is a classic. I enjoy that too but it kind of sucks - like the ideal way to consume that series is secretly renting the video from Blockbuster when you’re 10. As an adult it’s corny as hell

As an adult it’s corny as hell I think SyFi's currently showing the 90s miniseries as the episodes so it'll have those intro credits that filled in more of Derry's history.

The movie opens with Pennywise killing a gay guy who gets beaten up by bigots at a fair, later on it’s heavily implied that Ritchie is gay and in love with Eddie, who gets got.

Tac Dibar posted:I seem to remember some quote about how seeing a clown at the circus is fun and cool, but opening your door at night and finding one on your doorstep is not. It was Lon Chaney Sr.: "A clown is funny in the circus ring, but what would be the normal reaction to opening a door at midnight and finding the same clown standing there in the moonlight?"

Secks posted:It was Lon Chaney Sr.: First of all, Moonlight Clown would be a good name for a scented candle (the scent would be blackberry mixed with cotton candy). Second, I think it would depend on what the clown was holding. If the clown is standing there in the moonlight holding a knife obviously I'm about to die and I'd be frightened, but if they're holding like a bouquet of flowers or a heart shaped box of chocolates I would feel more confused and aroused because maybe I'm about to get some clussy.

I’m seriously loving all these The Thing references popping up. Godzilla King of the Monster has two, including the very same “you gotta be fuckin kidding” which I was hoping was gonna be said after they did the very same shot. It’s really random but I can’t hate

Saw an excellent horror-sci fi joint called THE PLATFORM last night. It's kind of like Snowpiercer, set in a vertical prison where there's two randomly-selected inmates on each level (the number of levels is a spoiler but there's a lot of levels) and the levels are randomly assigned to each pair every month. Food is dispensed on a single platform from the top down and inmates can eat as much as they want before the platform moves down a level. On the lower levels, naturally, there's less and less food. It's really well done and also has elements of Cube and The Raid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bsyicj2qdqs

It: Chapter 2 is 169 minutes long and I felt every single minute. Bill Hader is the only stand-out, and that's just because they give him some personality to be a joke-machine.

Let's not forget the loving clown from the original Poltergeist. Try explaining to four year old me those toys coming alive and attacking that boy in his bed at night (especially that clown and its arms) aren't some documentary. I wasn't surprised it was front and centre on the poster for the remake. Don't like clowns, they just look and move off.

This is a reckless attitude to take and will likely result in you being cocooned in cotton candy and exsanguinated.
