Maybe I'm a twisted freak, but I was hoping that was really
[Show spoiler]Georgie when Bill shot him in the head.
It defintely would've stuck in my mind forever.

That would have been almost as
[Show spoiler]messed up as The Mist. Glad that didn't happen. And yes...you are a twisted freak

The audiences reaction
[Show spoiler]when they made it seem like it was actually him for a minute
made that change
[Show spoiler]of Georgie being missing instead of outright dead
totally worth it!

So people thought Georgie
[Show spoiler]could survive with one arm in the sewers without food or water for 8 months?

So can we discuss the film's timeline? "It" comes back every 27 years, but for how long? An entire year?

[Show spoiler]Georgie gets killed in October. Then it cuts to June, where they finish school. It seems like "It' only killed a few kids since then. Were all those floating kids from his entire career of killing, or just that year? Does a small town like Derry even have that many kids to kill?

Well, we as the viewers knew, but Bill didn't have any idea.

And for that reason let's put everything in the story to be very far from realistic

Taking this into account part 2 must take place in 2015. Also,
[Show spoiler]no one knew Georgie got his arm bitten off except that lady's cat and from the look on his face he was way too traumatized to speak

This is having the most surprising box-office run since Deadpool.

BO.com's original prediction was $100M total. Kinda off.

Ended up at the theater to see this last night so my teenage daughter and a few friends could get in. After a terrific, very creepy opening scene.....my goodness this film goes in several directions and really ends up sucking. I don't even know where to start. It was like watching a mix of the goonies and stand by me with an occasional appearance by some demon clown that didn't seem to have any real powers. He'd scare and then off he went. Why not just finish the job?

Incidentally, what WAS penny wises goal? What's the motivation? Why should I care? What are the rules around his powers and what he can do or not do? Some of the scenes and situations seemed extremely convenient and rather lazy. It was like "oh so you just do that to fix that problem". Got it. Lazy script and or writing. Very lazy.

The middle of the film was just a recycling of the kids on their bikes, one kid sees penny and get scared, then the bullies do stuff. Then. Ehhh. What's the objective here? It wasn't scary at ALL except for the first scene which was well done. So much early promise ruined by a crappy script, details missing about the motivations of our bad guy, and a plot that just draaaaaaaggggggged on for far too long. That's OK. I saw it and can safely take it off my list. Zero interest in seeing the next one. I really couldn't care less. The kids did their best and maybe a separate movie about just them might be fun but IT was basically useless.

And I don't care about the book either. Never read it, never will.

I hope It can make it to $400M WW but it's not doing as well overseas as the crazy NA money it's raking in.

I think IT is a lock for $500M WW at this point.

Definitely. $300 million US is a lock, maybe $350. And I was originally thinking a $30 million opening and $100 million total would be a great showing...
