I loved when Andrew saw a movie and explains it to Avaryl. The only thing more magical is when Avaryl does it but has to explain the book, and the miniseries, and the first movie, THEN this movie. I feel like this video is an accredited class for some junior colleges.
Jaymes Mansfield No lie, while watching this I thought of your line from the Faster Pussycat Kill Kill review: “You’re missing the point. The point is of no return, and you’ve passed it.”
Y'all really need to do a supercut where Sylvester Stallone from Rocky is yelling "Adrian" and Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-N-Furter responds by yelling "Rocky!"
Fun Fact... or in this case I guess: Not So Fun Fact: The primary catalyst in the scary clown sub-genre was the serial killer John Wayne Gacy. Although he didn't dress as his self named clown personas, Pogo or Patches to lure his 33 adolescent victims (ranging from 14-21yrs old). He was soon dubbed "the killer clown" due to the fact he often preformed as Pogo/Patches at charity and children's events. His crimes took place from '72-'78. "IT" the novel was released in '86. PS I love u guys 😘!
I found the actor who played Ben (Jay Ryan) distractingly hot. The entire film, I just kept thinking "that kid did not grow up into him." I did enjoy the film then finding a reason to show us his abs for no reason.
Craig Fitzwilliam that’s how it happens in the book though. He becomes distractingly hot and I actually did see a resemblance. They had very similar facial features especially their noses.
j qui yeah - I remember, so I was even expecting it and was still caught off guard by how hot he was. I think it says more about what a thirsty bitch I am!
Avaryl saying "et tuuu" has the same energy as Angela saying "bUrt ReynOlds?" Also editing to add "get out of here clown! Shoo!" -the producers @ Thorgy during the divas live challenge in AS3. And no Avaryl is not misremembering, the magical black person got the magical information from the magical native americans. This movie literally did that.
Two favorite lines already for this review “The answer is cocaine. The answer is always cocaine. There is an answer, and it is cocaine.” “....and then the clown showed up”
Most King books take place in Maine and Cabot Cove from Murder She Wrote is also in Maine so when is Jessica Fletcher gonna kick some cosmic space demon clown ass ?
The fact that Andrew, a gay man has never watched Carrie (1976), is criminal. If you like Mean Girls and Heathers, you’ll love Carrie. Get on it Andrew! BTW: The zombie driver was the other bully that Pennywise killed in the sewer in part 1. His name was Patrick. In the novel, he was a sadistic kid, who had the hots for his buddy. He was attacked by flying alien leeches and dragged off and eaten alive by Pennywise. Scariest part in the book. Totally ruined in the movie.
saw this movie in a theatre near a college campus on opening. among my favorite moments of the night include someone screaming “ARE WE STILL ON THIS SCAVENGER HUNT?” after the ¿third? loser went off on their own adventure
I'm so here for a series where Avaryl watches horror movies and then describes them to Andrew. Just keep doing these. Also here for it when Andrew wants to watch a movie that Avaryl won't watch and explain it to her, like for Star Wars.This is so fun. I didn't see this movie either and now I don't have to! Bless!
I think you guys should do this more often, where only one of you watches the movie and you describe it to the other, because I thoroughly enjoyed Andrew's shocked faces and sounds throughout this review!!
it's actually sooo much more entertaining watching this now that it has come out, because of all the clips you were able to add from the god awful cgi scenes as you're talking about them, rather than just being limited to what's shown in the trailer! the troll hair old lady demon situation is so much worse than i ever could have imagined without the clip 😂😂
This movie was never going to be that good because the second half of the novel is messy. It’s funny how this movie is so long but they cut so much character development details out. I think the Richie storyline was a better improvement but this movie is a C maybe C-
I enjoyed Et Tu immensly but that was probably because I saw it in a mostly empty theatre with my best friend and a couple other groups who really didn't care that much and we'd had three or four cocktails beforehand When the old naked lady ran at Jessica Chastain I laughed so hard I peed
I actually just read the WHOLE book! It’s weird, gross but good! Loved both the movies. IT Chapter Two I liked only cause I think I went into it with the right expectations (it definitely has its flaws though). And yes, I too remember going down the aisles of Blockbuster, seeing IT and was like “I’ll never watch that!” I watched some...OMG it’s soooo campy! Tim Curry is great though
To be fair, the "everyone's gotta split up and remember their individual traumatic pasts, because REASONS...!" is also in the book and the pacing is ALSO wack. Giant Paul Bunyan attacking Richie is also book canon. Do with that what you will.
The funniest thing in the entire movie is that Eddie’s mom and his future wife are PLAYED BY THE SAME ACTRESS it’s a cute little nod to the book, Stephen constantly mentions how his wife is the spitting image of his mom
As someone who read the book, I can clarify that many of the flashbacks were taken from the book but they didn't happen for them to get talismans. Just weird stuff in the town they encounter when they come back of stuff they remember from childhood. Probably the reason Mike didn't get a flashback is that his involved a racist bully poisoning his dog. Nobody likes a movie that kills the dog.
Please review Stephen Kings original screenplay/ 90’s hot mess- Sleepwalkers. It’s basically a story about shapeshifter cat people who need a virgins energy to survive. The story makes little sense and the special effects are amazingly bad!
They do split up and explore the town alone in the book, only to try and remember their childhood, not collect random crap. , It works there because the entire book (contents of the first film) is told in flashback while they walk around so we don't know in advance how bad it all was. If they'd used the books structure, which is already split in two parts, they wouldn't have had to waste any time making up new stuff to justify their treasure hunt.
IT isn't a spider at the end of the book, IT's true form drives anyone who sees it insane. In the book that's the whole point of the plot with Bill's wife.
I know I'm in the minority buuut... I loved this, saw it two times in the theater, and cried at the end both times lol. Now do I want to see it ever again? No. And do I still enjoy Avaryl ripping into it? Yes.
The part where "Emilio" is in the pharmacy basement and they play the song is a callback to another Overbearing mother and son duo in another Stephen king story. The Langoliers. His mother used to drink and blast that song.
“Not a lot of this is in the movie” - which is such an issue. IT 2 is like one of the Disney remakes you need to know the source to fully get it but most wont
Ya know, I had a real shitty day. Found out my ex has a new boyfriend. Really wasn’t feelin good about that. But 18:50 really reset my mood. Thank you Lmfaoooooo
That opening scene seriously gutted me. And then there's really no more focus on those characters and it genuinely made me sad for the rest of the day.
It also felt really weird how they made the guy who committed suicide a hero at the end. Suicide doesn’t seem like something that should be glamorized. And also for a movie showing how wrong bullying is, it seemed weird that their solution to beating Pennywise was bullying him. Pick a lane IT 2, pick a lane
I enjoyed the movie (aside from how they beat Pennywise) and I cried at the end because of Richie & Eddie, but I can appreciate a movie roast. At least Avaryl stayed through the whole thing, instead of the time they walked out of "This Is the End" (2013) before the plot even started, smh. I never thought of It movies as being intended to be scary. They're more campy like Freddy Krueger movies, but with a greater focus on the characters and how they battle their own demons.
I wish they had kept the original end to the old woman scene. Instead of a jump scare, she just realized that all of the apt was Pennywise in her head and she was really sitting in a decaying, abandoned building drinking sewage out of an old teacup. The adult portions were always the weakest part of the story for me. But they were still creepy whenever Pennywise was was tricking them into doing gross, terrible, or dangerous things by making them not be able to trust what they were seeing.
I read the entire book in middle school, and It gave me nightmares. The whole final act of the book made no damn sense to me....BTW there is no Juice Newton in the book
1) You've mentioned this before: you guys should definitely review Drag Me To Hell for Halloween 2020! 2) I remember reading IT when I was 13 and for some reason the underage "gangster banging" never struck me as that weird. Maybe 'cause I'm queer it was actually a relief to see a portrayal of kids having strange, taboo urges. Thankfully, the writing isn't explicit--the focus is on Bev's FEELINGS and not what they're all doing. And in the book King makes it clear that Beverly actually loves them all very much. IDK, I'm just saying, as an outcast weirdo who felt things he wasn't supposed to be feeling, THAT scene was something that made me feel less alone and out-of-place.
Whodo Voodoo yea I understand why people get freaked out about that scene but it never struck me gross because it wasn’t about just sex it was more about Beverly overcoming her fear of her womanhood and taking power over it. To me it was kind of sweet because it was all consensual and out of pure love. I dunno if I’m missing something but that’s how I see it 🤷♀️
I finished the book and after reading the ending, I knew that King was definitely on some hardcore drugs and I also knew it would be impossible to be recreated on film.
They DEFINITELY did the “magic negro” trope with Mike, on top of making him use Native American magic...which is also playing into the the “magic Native American” trope, just without an actual Native American character... this is where you can tell how dated the source material is.
feeding off of fear is like every demon in every magic show ever (xena, charmed, sabrina, magicians) and in comics as well. they love fear and nightmare demons. i dont get it
It's a really easy trope to use. What's more debilitating then being forced to fight your greatest fear? And then the audience, if they love the characters, are even more hype when they conquer their greatest fear
I loved the book and the original 90s mini series. This film was so painful to watch, I have never wanted to leave the theatre so bad. Boring, not scary, it wasn't even bad enough to cross into camp.
You guys basically said all what I was thinking about that awful clusterfuck of a film, heck I think it was even more of a clusterfuck than Suicide Squad and that says a lot lol
I really liked the first movie, because making the child-arc into this 80s Goonies’esque vanilla-fantasy worked. It had enough spooky parts, but also gave the kids room to grow. The second movie felt like the first one all over again, but suddenly they are adults. Adult fears are different and in the book it was actually a point that their fears had evolved. It wasn’t just a witch, Beverly realises that her fear of the witch was linked to her father, etc. The second movie is just half baked.
Listen I know this movie is a mess but I haven’t been able to stop thinking about my Actual Son richie tozier since I saw it, he’s the anxiety ridden gay rep I needed, considering I wore a rainbow shirt to go see it, then had a panic attack in the bathroom when it was over (what up ✌🏻)
I'm sorry did Andrew just participate in a FEATURE LENGTH review for a film he's never even seen? You. Legends .
go back and watch some of the other reviews, there's definitely one where Avaryl refused to watch "Solo: a star wars story"
I loved when Andrew saw a movie and explains it to Avaryl. The only thing more magical is when Avaryl does it but has to explain the book, and the miniseries, and the first movie, THEN this movie.
I feel like this video is an accredited class for some junior colleges.
I love that and I love that Andrew is such an attentive listener!
MovieBitches film history lectures coming soon from Professor Avaryl
I love his level of disdain for this film based solely on Avaryls brilliant retelling!
This review was a rollercoaster I didn’t want to get off of! I laughed so hard! Omg
Jaymes Mansfield No lie, while watching this I thought of your line from the Faster Pussycat Kill Kill review: “You’re missing the point. The point is of no return, and you’ve passed it.”
Losers club: haha look at that high waisted clown man, he’s got feminine hips!!!
Pennywise: Nooo that’s the thing I’m sensitive about!! *dies*
j qui dying 😂😂😂
A perfect chaser to his recent snl show! 😄
Them:Your makeup is terrible and you’re already balding.
Pennywise:dies
"Then the clown ate him out" Bianca Del Rio is a top confirmed
It didn't end, Avaryl. You're still in the theater.
They could get to more movies if MB did more episodes where they retell the stories to each other. Like some kind of secondhand movie thing 🤔🙂
Y'all really need to do a supercut where Sylvester Stallone from Rocky is yelling "Adrian" and Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-N-Furter responds by yelling "Rocky!"
C M R don’t forget Esai Morales yelling “Ritchieeeee!” In La Bamba
Or Stella! Or Shane!
Do you guys still make the movie posters? If so "It's like a friend who won't let you off the phone" is the perfect quote for it! lmao
yes! but we went with "it's a nightmare, but in no way terrifying" it was close between those 2 though!
"Ah-booga-booga blaagh! Wah-boo-blah-boo-baaagh!" - Stephen King writing IT
Andrew's facial journey as Avaryl told him about THE SCENE. You could see a part of him die. I felt so bad. :-/
Fun Fact... or in this case I guess: Not So Fun Fact: The primary catalyst in the scary clown sub-genre was the serial killer John Wayne Gacy. Although he didn't dress as his self named clown personas, Pogo or Patches to lure his 33 adolescent victims (ranging from 14-21yrs old). He was soon dubbed "the killer clown" due to the fact he often preformed as Pogo/Patches at charity and children's events. His crimes took place from '72-'78. "IT" the novel was released in '86. PS I love u guys 😘!
I died at 46:22 after hearing “I guess it was a good thing Stanley couldn’t make it” + the shade sound. 😂😂😂
I'm obsessed with Avaryl waving her arms and saying ''awooga booga!'' at Andrew, followed by him rolling his eyes and wheezing.
This whole movie is "What if we took the quote "See when you do clownery, the clown comes back to bite" and made it the villain"
i couldn't stop laughing at finn wolfhard's awful de-aging, he looked like clay
I found the actor who played Ben (Jay Ryan) distractingly hot. The entire film, I just kept thinking "that kid did not grow up into him." I did enjoy the film then finding a reason to show us his abs for no reason.
Craig Fitzwilliam that’s how it happens in the book though. He becomes distractingly hot and I actually did see a resemblance. They had very similar facial features especially their noses.
I thought he was so hot too yet he still resembled the child actor.
j qui yeah - I remember, so I was even expecting it and was still caught off guard by how hot he was. I think it says more about what a thirsty bitch I am!
His abs are necessary to the plot.
Grainne Mhaol isn’t that the Thor films 🤣
Avaryl saying "et tuuu" has the same energy as Angela saying "bUrt ReynOlds?" Also editing to add "get out of here clown! Shoo!" -the producers @ Thorgy during the divas live challenge in AS3. And no Avaryl is not misremembering, the magical black person got the magical information from the magical native americans. This movie literally did that.
Two favorite lines already for this review
“The answer is cocaine. The answer is always cocaine. There is an answer, and it is cocaine.”
“....and then the clown showed up”
Most King books take place in Maine and Cabot Cove from Murder She Wrote is also in Maine so when is Jessica Fletcher gonna kick some cosmic space demon clown ass ?
The answer is not cocaine, the answer is cocoon!
I'm in a cocooooon, you know how like a butterfly comes out of a cocooon...
The fact that Andrew, a gay man has never watched Carrie (1976), is criminal. If you like Mean Girls and Heathers, you’ll love Carrie. Get on it Andrew!

He was attacked by flying alien leeches and dragged off and eaten alive by Pennywise. Scariest part in the book. Totally ruined in the movie.
In the book the old women in Bev's apartment turns into the witch from Hansel and Gretel because it used to scare her.
It took me almost the entire gawdamm movie to realize that adult Mike is the Old Spice "I'm on a horse" guy.
"The problem with It : cocaine" I'm glad someone else said it lmao
saw this movie in a theatre near a college campus on opening. among my favorite moments of the night include someone screaming “ARE WE STILL ON THIS SCAVENGER HUNT?” after the ¿third? loser went off on their own adventure
My favorite part of the book (and the mini-series) is when Bill puts his wife on the bike in the end to cure her catatonic depression.
I'm so here for a series where Avaryl watches horror movies and then describes them to Andrew. Just keep doing these. Also here for it when Andrew wants to watch a movie that Avaryl won't watch and explain it to her, like for Star Wars.This is so fun. I didn't see this movie either and now I don't have to! Bless!
I love how Avaryl says “baby” like Moira every single time
I think you guys should do this more often, where only one of you watches the movie and you describe it to the other, because I thoroughly enjoyed Andrew's shocked faces and sounds throughout this review!!
I think Andrew needs to watch ‘Carrie’ asap! 😁
I would like a compilation of every time Avaryl goes “whehhhh”, “ooga-booga” , and “blahhh” - please!
it's actually sooo much more entertaining watching this now that it has come out, because of all the clips you were able to add from the god awful cgi scenes as you're talking about them, rather than just being limited to what's shown in the trailer! the troll hair old lady demon situation is so much worse than i ever could have imagined without the clip 😂😂
“It’s turtle time” can be the only takeaway here.
"I think I might wanna try some of that c'cain!"
This movie was never going to be that good because the second half of the novel is messy. It’s funny how this movie is so long but they cut so much character development details out. I think the Richie storyline was a better improvement but this movie is a C maybe C-

When the old naked lady ran at Jessica Chastain I laughed so hard I peed
Love that this review is an hour and 27 minutes, it’s perfectly fitting for this movie’s runtime.
disappointed in the lack of discussion about the cinematic parallels between "Clown, Clown, Clown!" and "Scram! Or Instagram!"
God this movie was a longwinded mess. Can’t wait to watch this.
The fact that EVERY impression she did was spot on is making me cry
The actress who plays Eddie's mom also plays his wife.
Just googled and they spent over 35 million dollars to de-age the looser club
" ... cocaine."
And in the book (spoilers), Derry is engulfed by a massive earthquake. Never to be see again.
Sorta.
You seriously have the funniest edits on UA-cam. Every time you hit me with an ''Emilio!'' edit, I shriek with laughter.
I did NOT hear that "Let's take our shirts off and kiss" line !!
I actually just read the WHOLE book! It’s weird, gross but good! Loved both the movies. IT Chapter Two I liked only cause I think I went into it with the right expectations (it definitely has its flaws though). And yes, I too remember going down the aisles of Blockbuster, seeing IT and was like “I’ll never watch that!” I watched some...OMG it’s soooo campy! Tim Curry is great though
My 12yr old daughter read the entire “IT” book & I was highly impressed! I must say though, she was horrified by the child sex ending!
Thank you! I said out loud “WTF is Peter Bogdonavich doing here?!”
To be fair, the "everyone's gotta split up and remember their individual traumatic pasts, because REASONS...!" is also in the book and the pacing is ALSO wack. Giant Paul Bunyan attacking Richie is also book canon. Do with that what you will.
The funniest thing in the entire movie is that Eddie’s mom and his future wife are PLAYED BY THE SAME ACTRESS it’s a cute little nod to the book, Stephen constantly mentions how his wife is the spitting image of his mom
I love how Avaryl turns into a snobbish British woman during the 'clown' chant at the end.
As someone who read the book, I can clarify that many of the flashbacks were taken from the book but they didn't happen for them to get talismans. Just weird stuff in the town they encounter when they come back of stuff they remember from childhood. Probably the reason Mike didn't get a flashback is that his involved a racist bully poisoning his dog. Nobody likes a movie that kills the dog.
The amount of wine in Avaryl's glass indicates that this review is gonna be a looot and so good 😂
Am I reading to much into it or is Avaryl specifically pronouncing the word “babies” like Moira Rose from Schitts Creek?
Please review Stephen Kings original screenplay/ 90’s hot mess- Sleepwalkers. It’s basically a story about shapeshifter cat people who need a virgins energy to survive. The story makes little sense and the special effects are amazingly bad!

If they'd used the books structure, which is already split in two parts, they wouldn't have had to waste any time making up new stuff to justify their treasure hunt.
Can we have a (however long) - minutes montage of Avaryl's Boogawooga? Because that could cure any sort of sadness I will ever have
IT isn't a spider at the end of the book, IT's true form drives anyone who sees it insane. In the book that's the whole point of the plot with Bill's wife.

Disney remakes are the worst
43:57 OMG the Aqua Teen Hunger Force clip! why do I think Avaryl put that there 🤣
Ya know, I had a real shitty day. Found out my ex has a new boyfriend. Really wasn’t feelin good about that. But 18:50 really reset my mood. Thank you Lmfaoooooo

Love the ADR for "Episode 235" 🤣
I wish they had kept the original end to the old woman scene. Instead of a jump scare, she just realized that all of the apt was Pennywise in her head and she was really sitting in a decaying, abandoned building drinking sewage out of an old teacup.
The adult portions were always the weakest part of the story for me. But they were still creepy whenever Pennywise was was tricking them into doing gross, terrible, or dangerous things by making them not be able to trust what they were seeing.
I’m okay with the thing head cause in the book it turns into universal movie monsters
Will you Retro Review “The Impostors” With Oliver Platt and Stanley Tucci? I feel like that movie would be up your alley.
I read the entire book in middle school, and It gave me nightmares. The whole final act of the book made no damn sense to me....BTW there is no Juice Newton in the book
1) You've mentioned this before: you guys should definitely review Drag Me To Hell for Halloween 2020!
2) I remember reading IT when I was 13 and for some reason the underage "gangster banging" never struck me as that weird. Maybe 'cause I'm queer it was actually a relief to see a portrayal of kids having strange, taboo urges.

I finished the book and after reading the ending, I knew that King was definitely on some hardcore drugs and I also knew it would be impossible to be recreated on film.
A- Love the new intro.
B- 2 movies I’d recommend to review are
1. The Witches of Eastwick
2. Wolf (1994). Both have Jack Nicholson.
They DEFINITELY did the “magic negro” trope with Mike, on top of making him use Native American magic...which is also playing into the the “magic Native American” trope, just without an actual Native American character... this is where you can tell how dated the source material is.
The best line of any review I’ve read so far is from Empire: “Pennywise is a real motherfucker in this film. An absolute horrible bastard of a clown”
Honestly as a cinema worker no matter the quality- thank you 2019 for being the 3 hour movie year
I am truly serious when I say I had a lifelong fear of clowns, and these movies have ended it. I just want to bully that clown.
The best part about this film is the theory that Mary poppins is another galactic space entity
The murder from the beginning of the book (the opening scene of Chapter 2) was based on an actual murder...
absolutely HATED every single thing about this movie, but loved EVERY single thing about this review!!!
feeding off of fear is like every demon in every magic show ever (xena, charmed, sabrina, magicians) and in comics as well. they love fear and nightmare demons. i dont get it
It's a really easy trope to use. What's more debilitating then being forced to fight your greatest fear? And then the audience, if they love the characters, are even more hype when they conquer their greatest fear
Excited about the shenanigans Avryl will talk about! This movie was wacky-doo-da😄
I loved the book and the original 90s mini series. This film was so painful to watch, I have never wanted to leave the theatre so bad. Boring, not scary, it wasn't even bad enough to cross into camp.
i could listen to avaryl go "ABOOGABOOGABOO" forever
You guys basically said all what I was thinking about that awful clusterfuck of a film, heck I think it was even more of a clusterfuck than Suicide Squad and that says a lot lol
the young cast was so much better onscreen
I just watched Cruising and how is no one talking about that movie?
This video took me 3 days to watch.
I loved every moment of it.
"i feel like there was something else we watched where they were powered by fear" monsters inc. andrew
“Let’s take our shirts off and kiss” LOL it’s like one of those hidden lines in Aladdin 😂
I really liked the first movie, because making the child-arc into this 80s Goonies’esque vanilla-fantasy worked. It had enough spooky parts, but also gave the kids room to grow.
The second movie felt like the first one all over again, but suddenly they are adults. Adult fears are different and in the book it was actually a point that their fears had evolved.
It wasn’t just a witch, Beverly realises that her fear of the witch was linked to her father, etc.
The second movie is just half baked.
"And then the clown ate him out and killed him!"
so stupid
1:20:51 Can I just say, this is taken from Dora the Explorer; “Swiper no swiping, Swiper no swiping!” 😂😂😂💀
I think this is the best episode of MovieBitches to DATE
1:04:19 He wasn’t a zombie he was a leper. Eddie is afraid of germs and diseases.
feeling very blessed by the length of this review
I walked out of the movie and told my friend "Well that was stupid!"
Listen I know this movie is a mess but I haven’t been able to stop thinking about my Actual Son richie tozier since I saw it, he’s the anxiety ridden gay rep I needed, considering I wore a rainbow shirt to go see it, then had a panic attack in the bathroom when it was over (what up ✌🏻)
There was John Wayne Gacy before there was It, surely
