    Director Andy Muschietti kept Bill Skarsgård separate from the child actors up until they had to shoot scenes together. On the day of their first scenes together, the production staff warned the kids about how scary Skarsgård could be while in character. The kids brushed this off, claiming that they knew he was just an actor in a costume and that they were professionals and would be fine. However, when the time came for Skarsgård to be Pennywise for the scene, the kids were genuinely terrified.

    Doug does raise some fair points. I’ve worked at a horror attraction as a clown for many years. Often times I start with the scary and if they aren’t biting I transition into funny. Clowns aren’t strictly scary, and the Pennywise persona is as much about being scary as it is about being funny and inviting. Usually if someone doesn’t find me scary I lull them into a false sense of security so a Co-Worker can scare them. Good horror works well when people either aren’t expecting it or are lulled into the security before the scare happens.

      @Phillip Cozzi yes, definitely. This is my first year working as a clown (we just finished up the season) and I figured out about half way through the season that it's good to be scary and funny, depending on the situation. It's good to lure them into a sense of security before scaring them with something more frightening.

    Both open with a poker/card playing game
    Both involve villans arguing about one topic
    Both have a plot twist at the end. Nostalgia critic being the joker and in the show Batman being killer croc
    That episode just so happens to be nostalgia critic's favorite in the whole series
    And animated joker made a cameo
    I imagine that 90% of you already know this so thanks for reading
    Oh I almost forgot when they say "I almost got it" it's a reference to the line in the episode where the villan s say "I almost got him" aka Batman
    Also it is hinted that nostalgia critic is the joker during the part where nostalgia critic walks in because it's similar to how the joker makes his entrance in the episode.

    You know, having re-watched this review multiple times I have an idea as to how they could've possibly made the leper scene a bit more scary. When the blurred focus becomes the reveal of the leper it shows him in a much more severe stage of the disease and even progressively has pieces of him falling off, then his flesh melts off as he chases after Eddie.
    Once Eddie thinks he can stop to rest and thinks he has gotten away, he sees a broken off hand latched to his shoulder and progressively gripping onto him as he tries to pull it off. The hand tries to grab Eddie by the throat and he fights to keep it off of him, having it eventually fall as though dead. I feel like that would be at least somewhat more likely to get some scares.

      In the book, the Leper actually tries to rape Eddie. When the Leper sees Eddie he says "I'll suck your dick for a dime." And when Eddie refuses he says "I'll do it for free." and tries to grab him. The movie cut out a lot of sexual assault and violence that was in the book. I don't blame the film makers though, an accurate movie version of the book would be NC-17 if they were lucky and likely would be banned in half of the world. King really likes his horrifically detailed depictions of violence against women and children. They make the book so hard to read but really do create the tone that makes his books stand out.

    • @RockySamson
      @RockySamson Před rokem +10

      Personally, I’d take the opposite approach. Have it build up towards a scare but then reveal a harmless if not disheveled homeless person. Eddie declines out of Germophobia and the homeless person begins to heckle Eddie, seemingly offended. As Eddie tries to walk away faster and faster, THAT’S when the homeless person begins slowly deteriorating while still berating Eddie before grabbing his shoulder to reveal the face from the finished film. Eddie screams and runs while the homeless man stands still and laughs before the Pennywise reveal. You ramp up the tension, reinforce themes of stranger danger and make the audience question whether or not this threat is from Pennywise or Derry.

      Fun fact, clowns were never sposed to be funny.

      I actually loved how Tim Curry’s Pennywise was portrayed in this review. His line delivery is fucking hilarious.

    Personally, I prefer the relationship as portrayed between billy and his brother in the mini series, as not only do I think that's more realistic, but it shows just how guilty Billy feels about his brother's death.

    My favorite scene was at 6:00
    NC: "No kid would be drawn to someone that scary looking."
    2017: "Yeah, but they were drawn to him, and he's not even scary."
    1990: "Exactly, you dumbass."

      ShadowDude6488 because it’s so true. Timmy Curry’s “It” doesn’t look very scary unless he’s absolutely trying to be, but Bill Skarsgard’s “It” is always creepy looking even if he’s trying not to be!

      True, but he seems far more inhuman than Tim Curry did, allowing for the effect of drawing in people with the desire to stare at him and figure out what he is, whereas Tim Curry was clearly just an ordinary looking clown hanging around in a sewer. Think about. If you saw the Tim version in a sewer you would probably think "fucking weirdo, how did he even get down there, so weird, I'm leaving" but with the new one his strange appearance and unearthly voice grabs your attention and makes you want to stop and talk to him, try to figure out if he is really just a crazy guy in the sewers or if he's actually something else.

      Chexpet The problem with that is, you are rationalizing the situation like an adult, no kid would stop to think that.

      Interesting idea. Georgie is clearly nervous when he first appears but is completey transfixed. You can see how cautious he is talking to him. Sure he looks eerie but he has a pleasnt enough voice and Georgie is six after all

    In 2019 that ending is kind of ironic, because now The Joker became The Clown of the Year. But don't worry, Pennywise, we still love you.

    The inconsistency mentioned @ 12:56 really isn't one: what pennywise shows the Losers Club is ONLY for them. No one else CAN see, hear or experience them in any way UNLESS PENNYWISE WANTS THEM TO.

      Sorry, poor grammar. Edited it to make more sense. If you still don't get it, Malchom's character in poker game is a reference to a character from a show call IT crowd(general tech nerd stereotype)
