👻 secret phrase: You'll float, too! 👻
You'll float, too! Right into part 2! I can't remember the last time I saw you scream and freak out this much! Compliments to the creators of this wonderful Stephen King adaptation!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ash you are adorable plz React to the movie Host that one is super super Good ( if you had not seen it already)
also React to the movie smile
You'll float, too! Hope you recovered from your fall last night!😊
Ashleigh: Creampies! I love creampies!
The comments: ... PHRASING
Any chance we can get Archer on the tv series poll ?!! That would be … amaaazing.
Lmao I immediately thought of the Always Sunny episode
Everyone loves all kinds of creampies.
hahha i caught that too lol
This is the second time I've heard her say that in a reaction, too.
- "I love creampies".
-"These are the best friends, that help you clean so much blood from the bathroom".
-The Great Book of Totally Unexpected Ashleigh Quotes
Bill Skarsgaard (Pennywise) said in an interview that during the “Time to float” scene with Jack Dylan Glazer (Eddie) he thought he was traumatizing the kid. When the director cut the scene, Jack stopped screaming, started laughing and telling Bill how much he loved what he was doing with the character Pennywise.
Lol have you heard about the behind the scenes for Dr Sleep about a certain scene with a group of adults and a kid. They thought they were gonna scare the kid so bad and then they were the ones traumatized cause of the kid’s performance.
@@tylerbrown7246 And so were we. What a convincing scene.
Bill: "Kids these days!"
This is kind of depressing if you really think about it
@@tylerbrown7246 Yup. The kid's dad was there to monitor the scene, and apparently after the director yelled "cut", the kid jumped up, ran to his dad, hi-fived him, and told everyone "I'm going to get something to drink, brb" while the adult actors were still quietly processing.
My fav gif is Forest Gump waving on the boat, and then Pennywise waving back with the severed arm. gets me every time.
Not sure I've ever heard someone genuinely scream a "Waaaaaaaahhhh!" That was awesome, Ashleigh. 😆
Ah yes, the Waluigi
26:05 29:23 or 36:12?
@@dnasty312 😆
15:19 They winked like that because she referenced another "New Kids on the Block" song, and he realized it's now like a little inside joke between them. Just a sweet moment of them bonding. :)
Bev's friendship/flirtation with Ben is really sweet and well done. When they go to his room and she sees the poster was hilarious editing!
Fun fact from someone who's read through "IT"at least twice(it's a huge book, but I really loved it.):
Pennywise's powers are more than just shapeshifting. IT can also alter places, create smells or hide things from people. Georgie smells the scent of fries, funnel cakes and even animal droppings when Pennywise asks him if he can smell the circus. You can also notice how Pennywise's eyes go from yellow to blue(which Georgie sees as looking like both his mothers and Bill's eyes, which is why he isn't afraid of him as he should be).
4:35 And he did! (Bill Skarsgard, lol).
Book Mike's parents are actually alive(and are one of the only parents(other than Richie's)that are not abusive(physically or mentally). Mike's dad had his own encounter with It, though he only tells Mike on his deathbed.
11:33 Pennywise makes the people of Derry apathetic to the horrible things happening with its influence, making it much easier for it to feed.
Patrick Hockstetter is one of the characters they could never do the real story of in any adaptation(that or the scene with the Loser's after they first beat It...less said about that, the better...) Hockstetter murders his little brother in the crib because he's afraid that if he exists, Patrick won't. He also murders small animals by suffocating them in a fridge in a junkyard. However, he's such a sociopath, It doesn't know what form to take to scare him, so it creates flying leeches to attack him. Hockstetter sees Pennywise as something shifting and strange as it begins to eat him.
The poster on the wall behind the Losers when they are helping Ben has an image of a newspaper talking about the Bradley Gang being killed. The gang was put down by a posse of Derry Citizens, who were riled up thanks to Pennywise during one of his returns after hibernating. In between scenes, an image of his face appears in the wheel well of the car watching the kids, but it's subtle.
28:53, classic miniseries Pennywise statue.
Beverly's father of the book isn't a predator. He's a jerk, but he does genuinely love Beverly, he's just got ingrained jerkass traits. He attempts to force himself on her the day they fight It, but Beverly says aloud she knows its the clown manipulating him.
While they don't say it as explicitly as they should, the power of belief from the kids(and some kind of outside being assisting them)is said to give them abilities that make them dangerous to it. The scene where Bill uses the empty bolt pistol is the one where it's most clear, as he believes its loaded, and so it hurts Pennywise.
The "outside force helping them" is "the Shining". Stephen Kings books are all connected. The bad guys are essentially the same entity taking different forms. The good guys all have "the Shining" in some form. This is just a summation. Its alot more complicated than that if you wanna do some research.
For a cast filled with great kid actors, Sophia Lillis is just incredible in every scene. Bev is pretty badass in this version and I like that her determination is why Pennywise deadlights her first. He tries to cut the leader from the group and it backfires on him spectacularly!
Something I love about the book is that the stories of the kids and the adults are happening at the same time, one chapter will be in the past, the next in the present, so you have no idea where the story is going. I understand why both the TV movie and this version decided to present the story the way they did but I do feel like something is lost when you see the entire childhood part of the story followed by the adult side.
I agree. In my opinion IT should always have been at least a single-season TV show to give us everything as opposed to just a two-parter. I feel like that would have been good for showing us a lot of things we didn't get to see in both adaptations, not just from the main characters' perspectives but from others who encountered Pennywise throughout the history of Derry as well.
I'm kinda surprised I've never come across a fan edit that does just that.
@@billwenham I think the director said he wanted to a 6 hour super cut of the two movies and reincorporate some deleted scenes, but unfortunately that’s the studio and the distributers decision to make and not the directors. So who knows if we’ll get it.
It would be a fun editing experiment though.
Very much the way Hill House was done.
now here is a fun fact about the book.
The boys took turns on beverly after they defeated the clown and had an orgy.
Teen Gangbang lol
yeah Stephen King is a fucked up pervert. I mean look his face.
This could be a wholly unpopular opinion but: I think part 1 was much more serious, scary, and heartfelt than part 2.
Party 2 is really boring
@andreaszeintl8206 yeah idk how the one with children is somehow much deeper, mature, and terrifying, and the one with the adults is too full of comedic or melodramatic moments. I know the miniseries wasn't much better with the tone but that was cause it was a TV broadcast, these movies were able to be rated R and had that much creative freedom. I rewatch part 1 all the time but have rarely touched part 2.
The only issue I have is that Mike is hardly a character in part 1, in they gave his original character plot to Ben instead, but then Mike has a huge part in the second movie which matches to the original. Odd odd creative decision there.
It's not just you. Part two went completely off the rails. Same with the miniseries.
Part 2 does have it's moments though.
@michaelrussell3890 you're not wrong! There are moments I adored, and it left me wishing the whole movie were like that. The opening and the ending were the most impactful, imo.
6:03 - 6:15 There's a reason the book and original miniseries had the phrase, "Beep beep, Ritchie." Kid doesn't have a filter, and doesn't know when he goes too far.
One of my favorite things about this version of IT is just showing that Pennywise/It is just always watching, always present. The old lady in the library, the people in the car as Henry was carving into Ben, the mural as they were patching Ben up, the kid's TV show that only the kids and people under It's influence can see, the clown at the festival, etc.
If it wasn't obvious, IT is also affecting the adults. That's why Bills dad gives up on finding Georgie, why Beverly's dad is so mean to her, why they put lost posters over other kid's lost posters, why the adults don't help the kids when being bullied, why no one has called the FBI to help solve all the missing cases, and why people leaving town forget what happens there.
Yes, I feel the movie does a better job implying this - but also should have done more trying to show it if that makes sense? It's been decades since I've seen the miniseries but I don't think they ever really touched on that much either. I feel like Chapter 2 could have explained it specifically, since we see the loser's club as adults but I get it.
This is the scariest part of IT to me. What Derry has become under IT's influence.
@@nathanhall9345 And the fact that IT doesn't neccesarily has to be active to cast the influence.
@@nathanhall9345 facts
Beverly's dad was molesting her....
Ashleigh :" Nobody cares about Patrick, ain't nobody lookin for Patrick"
Person putting up the 'Missing' Patrick Posters : " AM I A JOKE TO YOU " hahaha
But maybe it was his jerk friends, putting up a poster... but not actually looking for him or caring really.
So fun fact that thing Pennywise does in the movie where his lower lips droops down and his eyes drift apart, that isn’t special effects Bill Skarsgard, the actor playing him, can just do that, apparently he used to chase his brothers around doing that to scare them which is why he did that in his audition. You’ll float, too!
"Cream pies. I love cream pies!"... Hehe giggity.
I’m so glad you caught the creepy old lady in the library. You’re the first reactor I’ve seen catch her. I saw her the first time I saw this and almost crapped myself
Yeah I've only seen a couple reactors actually pick up on that. It is very much in the background and you are mostly being given the foreground stuff with Ben etc. so it's easy to miss of course.
Just rewatched the movie before coming here for the YT edit and that was the first time I noticed myself 😅
I only saw her on my 3rd rewatch and my blood ran cold 😂
I saw her in the theater and I looked around like, did anyone catch that? My husband did not catch her
“You’ll float, too!
A phrase that shouldn't be scary, but is downright terrifying in context.
One thing I love about both versions of IT is that, while Tim Curry was great at playing a creepy clown, I feel like Bill Skarsgard was better at playing an otherworldly entity that is trying to imitate a clown.
With you on that! It's what makes his performance all the more unsettling to me. Skarsgard's Pennywise is more accurate to the book which is something I really appreciate.
That’s a good way to interpret the depictions, though I wasn’t scared or creeped out by Skarsgard’s IT. Something about his depiction was too goofy to me to be scary.
@@codiehaleytWell, design-wise the Tim Curry makeup is more accurate to the book, but Bill Skarsgard doesn’t seem human. They better sold that Pennywise is a shape-shifter in this new one. Everyone remembers the clown from the original because he doesn’t take as many other forms, probably because of budget.
My only gripe with the Bill Skarsgard design and performance is that there is nothing alluring about the new Pennywise from the child’s perspective.
Like the original Georgie was already pretty dumb (even for a five-year-old) to humor talking to a sewer clown. But at least with Tim Curry, he’s funny and pleasant and very comedic. He could pass as a human being in a clown costume that’s just a serial killer.
But the new Georgie has to be partially braindead to spend even one moment talking to the shadowy clown with Satan make-up, an enlarged head, and glowing eyes 😂
@@codiehaleyt I wouldn't say that. I'd say it's about as accurate as Curry's performance but they focused on different aspects of book Pennywise (both great performances - no argument there). From what I remember he acts more like a clown in the book in his pennywise form but a more depraved and dark humoured one. I remember when he first meets Eddie he says "Tell your friends I am the last of a dying race...The only survivor of a dying planet. I have come to rob all the women...rape all the men...and learn to do the Peppermint Twist!"
@@robertyeah2259 I think kids just weren't paying attention to the movie back then. he takes the shape of their greatest fears in the Original too. even the blood representing Beverlys puberty. also hilarious when she tells her dad that a spider went down the drain, when in the next one theres a huge spider in the sewer lol.
“You’ll float too”
Fun fact the kid that played Ben is from the town next to mine. Blountville TN. When this movie came out he did signings at the local theater and on my second watch, my buddy and I got to watch it with him and his family. They came and saw a play we were in that evening too. Kinda a cool day.
"I regret all the decisions..." I freaking died of laughter. I'm sorry I enjoyed your fear so much...wasn't very....funny of me
"the right stuff" is a New Kids On The Block song.
That's why Beverly and Ben winked at each other.
I love the cast in this film. The bond between the kids was so crucial in the book and it's what gave them the power to defeat It. The chemistry between the actors was great and they sold it 100%. And of course I loved Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise.
Including the child gang bang part in the book? smfh
“The Right Stuff” is another New Kids on the Block song. That’s why the wink. 😉🙂✌🏻
9:18 Good to know Ashleigh loves creampies. 😂
Lol!
She will have to go overseas for that
I actually rewinded the moment to be clear what she said but im not really surprised. 😂
Given a lot of her comments it doesnt surprise me
THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
I loved the big WAAAAAA! reaction 😆
You'll float, too!
I want button eyes.
"You'll float to"
Its even creeper knowing that bill ( the actor that played IT) can do the wierd eye thing he does without SFX
too* smfh stay in school.
Typos & English as a 2nd language are a thing...
45:54 - 46:01 😢That scene with Bill finding Georgie's coat and finally coming to grips with his death is still such a sad scene.
Back in the late 60's/early 70's there was a famous kid's film called "The Red Balloon", about a balloon that followed around a lonely boy and was his friend for a day, before floating off. Stephen King took that cute idea and made it Twisted!! LOL!! This movie shows how the whole town of Derry is under Pennywise's influence, where an undercurrent of cruel behavior is everywhere!
Now that's an iconic film! I hated those bullies!
I've seen that movie! Wow. I think I loved it.
Tim Curry is iconic as Pennywise
But I definitely enjoyed this version
The irony is Georgies line "Bill's gonna kill me." is that the actor who plays Pennywise in this version is Bill Skarsgard
So Bill really did kill him
When she said "not Bill!" I thought 'well kinda'...
when Ritchie enters the room filled with clowns, the old pennywise clown is visible as a doll clown in the left side. it is wearing the original clown costume from the OG IT.
Pennywise: "Hello Ashleigh..."
Ashleigh: "nah hum! No thanks! No thanks!"
Pennywise: "Rude".
ASHLEIGH: I'm not going to say that I'm scared of clowns....
ME (in my best Pennywise-voice): You WILL be....🤡🎈💀
That little boy that plays Georgie was at a horror con and people kept making him scream the secret phrase You'll float, too! over and over. Poor kid, he was hoarse by day 3
He's also in the Netflix Series "Locke and Key." He's really good 😊
Ashleigh saying “I love cream pies” was freaking hilarious. Gotta love this channel. “I want button eyes!”
Not the cotton eyed joe with that creepy weird dance!!! I just laughed so hard my sister came to check on me. I'm never not going to hear that now at that part. I can't wait for part 2!!!
Boats are referred to as "she" for a number of reasons, including:
Historical traditions - In ancient times, ships were dedicated to goddesses, and after that, named after important women. Sailors viewed ships as partners in their work, and named them after their loved ones, such as their wives or mothers.
Personification - Sailors personify boats as female to pay homage to the strength, grace, and protection associated with ships.
Language - In many languages, objects are referred to using feminine or masculine nouns. The Latin word navis, from which the word "ship" is derived, is feminine.
Lmao I was waiting for Ashleigh's reaction over the projector scene. Didn't disappoint. So scary, even wstching it in full daylight and knowing what was going to happen.
What I found to make this film even more amazing is the attention to detail in backgrounds throughout this whole film. Penny-wise is disguised as different people if you look closely. That old lady in the library...that was him. He's hidden in other scenes too. I love hidden details like that 😮 makes rewatching it even more interesting!
You'll float, too!
Skarsgaard really makes that creepy smile. It's not CGI
Neither adaptation does justice to Stan's one-on-one encounter with It
The mummy scared the hell out of me as a kid
@@SamuelBlack84 At least the 1990 version took inspiration from the book's scene and had a similar vibe, even if the location was changed from the standpipe to a house, and the monster was switched from drowning victims to a mummy. The suspense and dread were still there and the scene didn't rely on a jump scare from a monster
@@KimothyWhaleSnail Modern horror doesn't use tension or dread
It's too lazy for that
38:55 "What about the Rimmer Directive that states "Never tangle with anything that has more teeth than the entire Osmond family"?"
Didn’t expect a Red Dwarf reference! lol 😂
He does have point though
Oh wow that was unexpected and niche! Love it!
"What the SMEG is this comment??"
@@Rickgames1 Well Pennywise is a shape shifter that feeds of emotions, so...
I recommend you watch the Saturday Night Live skit of Kate McKinnon impersonating PennyWise impersonating Kellyanne Conway. It's hilarious 😂.
That "You'll float, too" scene with Georgie is so creepy. I love this movie
“You’ll float too”. Great reaction Ashleigh! Can’t wait for Part 2 😄
I honestly think both versions of IT are fantastic. The old tv mini-series one benefits hugely from having Tim Curry in it.. he elevates anything he's in to a work of art. And that takes nothing away from how good Bill Skarsgård was in his version of the roll. It from 2017 is a lot scarier in the typical terms people think of horror films in but I agree that the old tv version has a special sort of horror all it's own.
One of my favorite jumpscares of all time is Beverly turning to leave the bathroom after killing her Dad just to have Pennywise grab her neck, goes from *HELL YEA* to *AH FUCK NO* rq
Ashleigh, PHRASING!!!! "I love creampies". Girl, you're so innocent.
Ashleigh you can’t say “I love cream pies” or you’ll become known as Ashleigh “I Love Cream Pies” Burton
I mean, I was more surprised Ashleigh didn't giggle and wink at the camera after saying it.
.... but why do people just assume she didn't mean exactly what she said? I appreciate that kind of forthrightedness.
Well she is married iirc so if anyone has the right to say that unjudged its a married woman lol
I heard it as "I love creampies" to which I said "Same 😏"
i verbally shouted AYO internally hearing that line, thinking to myself "Ash, the internet is the same as the gutter, watch your phrasing!"
Ashleigh...you hair is winter fire, January embers...heehee!
"You'll Float Too" Love watching your videos! I hope you do Murder by Death for a Wednesday for Hallobeans in memory of Maggie Smith.
This would be AWESOME!!!
In the clown room 28:44 if you look closely you can see a mannequin of the original Tim Curry Pennywise standing to the left. Nice little Easter egg homage.
Another strange bit of trivia is that Tim Curry suffers from coulrophobia (the intense fear of clowns) and insisted that there be no reflective surfaces on set when he was in makeup. I'm not sure but I would imagine that this included covering the mirrors in the makeup trailer as well. He has talked about this in many interviews.
One of the things you get in the book is how Pennywise amplifies violent impulses into their most extreme expressions. Being mildly angry explodes into murderous rage. Al Marsh, who is an overly possessive and abusive father becomes a sexual predator. The whole town becomes a character in that respect.
The miniseries was made for TV--it was okay. This is better but still nothing compared to the book. If I had my way, I would have turned it into three movies, starting with the town's violent history as Mike discovers, starting with his first conversation with Albert Carson. There was the Kitchener Iron Works--the Bradley Gang--the fire at the Black Spot--Claude Heroux---the murder of Adrian Mellon--ending it with Mike making the phone calls. Then in the second movie, you go to the kids. The brilliant thing that King frequently does is how he blends supernatural horrors with human level horrors. His human monsters are every bit as terrifying as as the supernatural ones, if not more so.
Literally my favorite part of this new version was seeing Eddie Corcoran’s missing poster in the background.
That chapter was the absolute most disturbing for me. I can see why neither adaptation has time to show it though. It is the chapter that helps you understand just how Pennywise is affecting people.
@@robertyeah2259 Oh yeah---Eddie and Dorsey Corcoran's story was relentlessly savage.
Ashley: im not scared of clowns
Pennywise: Hold my beer......
I think all around the CGI improved all of Pennywise's alter forms, but that when it came to the actual clown form, Tim Curry still was the best, and what is strange is that Bill Skarsgard did a good job, Tim Curry's performance was just that strong
Ashleigh you’re a real one for watching Chapter Two for us so soon after this one, thank you!
You know you've got good friends when they'll help you clean up a room full of blood.
Alas, I have to sort out my victims' remains myself 😢
The 1990's version scarred me for life yet this one is one of my biggest comfort movies
I thought the 90s version was much more cozy, but I suppose it depends on when you first say it. The racism in this one makes it unwatchable for me, which is a shame because the kids are great.
The racism there because IT takes real life horrors, as well as nightmares & amplifies them. That's why the parents & townspeople are all so bad, or at least uncaring & negligent if not outright doing bad things to their kids.
The original IT is far creepier and nastier
I watched the original when it came out and it scared me to death. I have no intention of watching this version but I will live vicariously through you
Should 1000% watch the behind-the-scenes clips of this movie, the fact the kids were not shown Pennywise right up until filming their scenes just made it so much better
I love this movie and it's sequel. Poor Eddie gets hurt so much; give that guy a break. XD
"You'll float, too!" We can all float together.
Poor Eddie! He's my favorite of the boys. He's so much smaller than the others it just makes watching him suffer all the worse 🤕
Immagine hubby walking into the room with a pennywise mask after this episode. 😂
The gazebos line wasn’t scripted the young actor accidentally said Gazebos instead of Placebos and they kept it in! 😂
Both versions of Eddie are hilarious in these!
now here is a fun fact about the book.
The boys took turns on beverly after they defeated the clown and had an orgy.
Teen Gangbang lol
yeah Stephen King is a fucked up pervert. I mean look his face.
Thought he said it in the book and miniseries as well. But then it’s been a very long time since I visited either.
@@Clownboy15 It was written in the Book that he said gazebos.
@@okinsunshine that’s what I thought.
I saw this in the movie theater, and I literally had the same reaction with pennywise in the bathroom! One of the scariest moments I’ve ever had!!!
Cool fact. The contortionist part wasn't CGI. Bill Sarsgaard can do that on his own. Also, Pennywise's lazy eye was Bill's natural doing. They were going to do it with FX, but Bill said I can do that. I am torn as to which I prefer. I will always love Tim Curry's portrayal, but I found Bill especially creepy, and actually had a few moments of fear.
I do wish they had done a bit more variety (more costumes, etc) with Tim.
Except the torso spin which is anatomically impossible. But that WAS otherwise all Bill Skarsgaard.
Your reaction to Georgie's death, lol!
I love the gazebo's line! 😂
Thank you!, Ashleigh, for spotting how the librarian suddenly became creepy in the background, when Ben was looking through the book of old newspaper articles. (It was Pennywise masquerading as the librarian....) You are the *only* reactor that I've seen who caught that... or, at least, mentioned it. That tiny little bit creeped me out so much more than the blatant "headless kid" scene that came after.
Even though I watched it before your screaming made me jump out of my skin 🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣
You'll float, too!
I read this one at 14 and it has remained my favorite book for 38 years.
I read it when I was probably way to young to read it (probably around 10 or 11) and let me tell you, that book FUCKED me up for weeks. And don't even get me started on that orgy stuff, I mean I knew about sex at that point and all that, but my little tiny 10 year old brain was like W T F lol
The director did a great job bringing out the best in this young cast, also, his attention to detail in how young adolescents think and behave was spot on. Great film. Far scarier, far more engaging than the TV version.
Aside from gutting the black character and giving his role to one of the others, while making his story be about learning how to kill.
Pennywise is supposed to lure kids in, the clown form should be bait. Curry got that mix with humor and terror. New one is just scary and scarier. Though the kids in the remake did a great job.
The two Pennywises are so unique and you’re right that it’s hard to compare them. Modern Pennywise is absolutely terrifying in a traditional sense but OG Pennywise is terrifying because of how “normal” he seems. Tim Curry is so undeniably unsettling while looking like a run of the mill clown that it’s scary in its own way. I love both versions but the modern movies get the edge in my book because they fixed the weird spider ending. Lol
While this Pennywise performance is okay, Tim Curry was just more menacing when he belted out "You'll float, too!".
I'm still a fan of the original 1990 version. I remember seeing your reaction to it and loving it.❤
You'll float too. ❤ "Hiya Georgie." I say this in my best Pennywise voice every time I pass a storm grate walking with my kids. They're over my shit. 😂
I love how Steven King used a version of faerie Glamour for part of Pennywise's powers. Glamour is commonly thought of as illusion but it's more than that. A Glamour is an illusion that is real while it's active. So you can eat Glamoured food, for example. And a Glamour of a weapon can hurt. But it's not real real.
I can't unsee SNL's Kellyanne The Dancing Clown
“You’ll float, too!” Love October for these reactions!
9:19 Was waiting for an Editing Ashleigh segment there.
While filming, the production team didn't let any of the kid actors see Pennywise at all at first. The scene where all the Kids go into the house and Eddie breaks his arm is the very first time all of kids seen Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise, so their reactions were genuine in a way.
would you consider reacting to "the haunting of hill house"? it's not too scary, it's only 10 episodes and it's an absolute MASTERPIECE of a show. i'm not even into horror, but that is one of my favorite shows of all time. it's that good. i think you'd really love it.
+
Agree!
Yes! It's an amazing story.
One interesting thing they did in this film was sneak Pennywise into a TON of the shots, even when you think he's not there. He's lurking in the corners as lighthearted conversations happen, or in artwork and even under objects.
This movie makes me act like a kid again. Every time Ashleigh asks a question, I blurt out "wouldn't you like to know?"
The only draw back to this version of the story was them taking Mike's historical fascination and giving it to Ben. It really sidelined Mike from the movie. Still a damn good version of the tale.
Tim Curry Pennywise pauses right before the arm biting
I always love seeing people react to this movie for the first time. A simple phrase "You'll float, too!" cemented into pop culture.
I'm glad that both film adaptations of IT cut out the part where the boys run a train on Bev.
😬 It's a really weird choice for King to have that in the book at all...

Tim curry is amazing but the overall tone is pretty mid for horror and I feel like it was really held back by been a TV movie that clearly had to censor a lot out so when I watched it finally, it really just wasn’t as scary as it could have been
The original is fun but let's not pretend it's scary at all. It's kinda goofy
This is one of the rare times I prefer the new one. I feel like it captures the spirit of the book better, but with some changes. Book is the best form of all of them... except for that one part.
I couldn’t have put it better myself I mean Tim curry as pennywise literally made me afraid of clowns as an adult even though i wasn’t scared of them before
I'm happy you decided to do these movies as two uploads. Each movie deserves their own reaction.
This movie was made just to scare Ashleigh it succeeded. Big thumbs up
Super excited to see two Stephen King stories in a row !! I absolutely love both versions of IT and have just started collecting all of Stephen King’s horror books, so I’m really stoked you reacted to my absolute favorite tofay !
The thing is, Ash, It is something we can't fully grasp. It's a very Lovecraftian entity.
Its a common theory that Pennywise is something that comes from todash space. Its a concept explained in other king books as the space between universes were things beyond understanding reside. Its never explained where he really comes from but he shares characteristics with another character from the dark tower series in another world.
@@tycol322 As does Maturin. And Gan.
So proud of you Ashleigh for watching IT - Chapter 1, now both you and Cassie from Popcorn in Bed need to watch Chapter 2. Cassie has already watched Chapter 1.
