    • @Dave_L913
      @Dave_L913 Před 4 lety +10

      Definitely one of the better King miniseries from that era. Langoliers was utter garbage. There was also one where a green glowy thing landed in the woods (naturally) and people became possessed or something. Tommyknockers I think. I was awful

    • @TKe-wf2to
      @TKe-wf2to Před 4 lety +17

      Yeah, IT (1990) was good, especially part 1. I even think Tim Curry was better than Bill Skarsgard. He was fantastic and he could not rely on Special Effects and a great cinematography to make his appearance creepier but he still totally nailed it

    • @Eulogy10
      @Eulogy10 Před 4 lety +7

      Exactly, this and the stand are incredibly faithful considering the restraints they had

    • @mc_zittrer8793
      @mc_zittrer8793 Před 4 lety +4

      Well, it was basically Tim Curry channeling some of that Freddy Krueger. Back then acting was all about persona, and actors like Curry really knew how to steal the show. Skarsgard is a really interesting Pennywise in his own right; I honestly don't think either one is better or worse than the other, just different. First one is held back by some really hammy acting and painfully limited special effects, the second one is held back by LOUD NOISES AND THINGS MOVE REAL FAST.
      I just hope that in Chapter 2, they'll give us a movie that isn't held back by those kinds of constraints, cause the second Pennywise could have been a LOT more scary if the editing wasn't so amateurish. American directors don't seem to understand how far subtlety can actually take you in horror. Asian films are almost just as handicapped as the 90s It was in terms of their budget, but they're legitimately terrifying to watch.

      He specifically mentioned "people under 30" and said "meet them" so anyone under 30 wouldn't have seen The Waltons. I'm pushing 40 and I've never seen that show, though I do know he played John-Boy. The joke was introducing these seasoned actors to young people, so it had to be a reference they'd recognize (they could have used The Americans).

    Am I the only one who thinks that 1990 IT was way scarier and better than 2017 IT? Come on, the only real advantage of the new version was the budget. Not the story.

    • @darthtrip7188
      @darthtrip7188 Před 4 lety +3

      Ehhh..I think the 1990 version of IT is decent overall and is hated on too much sometimes considering it was such a low budget made for TV miniseries/movie but the 2nd half (the "adult half") was just so bad. The 1st half when they are kids is pretty damn good..it has great atmosphere and a scary tone. So, when you combine the two halves, you get a solidly mediocre or decent at best movie. Tim Curry was great as Pennywise though.
      With the IT Chapter One (2017) and IT Chapter Two (2019), you get two really good movies. The acting was top notch in these two IT films and much much MUCH better than the acting in the 1990 version. The writing, while not the greatest in these two new films, is still good overall and way better than the 1990 version has. You get more character development and character and story arcs in these two new films as well. I'd say that overall, the two new films are more faithful to the book as well. And while Tim Curry was great as Pennywise performance/acting wise, Bill Skarsgard is flat out better as Pennywise..and Bill Skarsgard's Pennywise is more faithful to the book version of Pennywise.
      If I was grading all three movie versions and the book...
      1.) IT Chapter One (2017) - B+ (I do think this film is overrated by most people though which is why I gave it a B+...it would have got a B or maybe even a B- if not for Chapter Two tying up it's loose ends.)
      2.) IT Chapter Two (2019) - A- (I thought this film was better than Chapter One and that it even made Chapter One a better and more complete film. Seriously an underrated film in terms of the "critics".)
      IT (1990) - C (I already explained why I would give it that grade above.)
      The IT book/novel - A+ (A true masterpiece even with it's weird parts.)

    While Skarsgard did a really good job, I dislike the costume design of the new Pennywise. In the book and the original mini series ITs' clown form was meant to attract children, draw them close until it is time for Pennywise to strike. He is supposed to look harmless.

      I mean it's hard to blame them though, as they were released on a regular broadcast network during a time the FCC was way more conservative, so you couldn't get away with much. Combined with the low budget, it's more of a guilty pleasure than actual good movie.
