Coulrophobia is something limited entirely to America in the past 50 years, acting like being afraid of clowns is some ancient innate :biotruths: is silly.

There's some deeper cultural poo poo there, like Pagliacci and Dr. Calgari. Also American clowns in the 20th century are unique from their European predecessors thanks to, like, mass media and postwar economics. Italians from 200 years ago didn't have surly neighborhood guys show up at their birthday parties or watch Bozo on tv. Clowns weren't set aside as for children and largely stayed inside theater and festivals for most of their existence. Young Ebert knew what was up with the 50s.

I'm watching the 90s miniseries now and I'm surprised by all the Vancouver tv regulars who show up in what must be one of the first us tv productions to film there. So far Smoking Man and Mulder's sister from X-Files have shown up, both looking young as hell. Smoking Man has brown hair, still!

What're the odd if It getting a super special release that intertwines both movies after all is said and done?

The best precedent I know is Kill Bill, so probably not good.

The scene where they spend a day at the spa and eat ice cream?

This has to be some kind of troll. There's no way they'd put the child orgy in the movie.

I feel like even a bunch of 12-year-olds should know how stupid of an idea that is.

It's good confirmation that even a bunch of 12-year-olds know dumb garbage when they read it.

1989. Also they should put in Simple Minds' Don't You Forget About Me at the end of the movie. Then a final scene of Mike phoning Bill and the final words should be "It's back."

I'd like to thank the Academy...

I hope the soundtrack has a Fat Boys song about the events of the movie and that the actor playing It does some of the rapping in it.
