Did you find it weird that Henry didn't call Mike the n-word at all? If he did I must have missed it.

It's 2017. That would not be PC...plus in the book they were kids in the 50's so Henry would be more apt to call Mike the n-word in that day in age. Just my opinion.

No actual weapon that I can recall - she was pretty brave, but the only weapon I remember was the bolt gun carried by Mike.

I saw the movie tonight in IMAX - enjoyed it very much!

i keep seeing people on all these sites that are making articles about easter eggs saying that the freese's tshirt worn by richie is a reference to the freese's department store in bangor and not the one in the book that played a specific role of one of richie's bowers encounters. they're killing me.

The Sunday crowd was bigger, I got more of a theatre experience...but at one point, when everything went quiet, we heard a very young kid voice ask, "Is this the clown movie?" And my son (14) whispered, "Who'd bring a little kid to this movie?"

Eeps, who indeed?

Fourteen is good.

I had two little girls in mine too. Had to have been 6 or 7.

Probably the same woman that took two kids a boy of 4 and a girl of 2, to the theater to see Se7en (the Brad Pitt movie). I could not believe it!

Final figures are in: our Losers racked up $123M domestic, $66M foreign. In three days. Pennywise did the Peppermint Twist all over the Box Office.

I hope Hollywood learns a lesson: if you do a property, and do it well, the audience is there.

'It' Devours Competition with Record-Breaking $123 Million Opening - Box Office Mojo

So almost $200 million total in three (or four if your city started showing it on Thursday) days. Awesome!!

I can't wait to see this movie! This Friday can't come fast enough!!

Didn't anyone else get a red balloon tied to their antenna while they were inside watching the movie? We did on sunday, everybody did.

No, I wish.

WB damn well better spring more money for the sequel's budget; they've no excuse now. Plus some nice fat bonuses to the Muschiettis, cause they sure deserve it. And Andres has already gone on record that he is thinking about Jessica Chastain for the sequel. Oh yeah. :love:

I didn't know cars still had antennas.......
We didn't get balloons, but I got really cool collectible tickets.

Sure they do. Have antennas, cars do. Old jalopys like mine, a'yuh.

I'm gonna put the sorry, deflated red balloon on the King shelf, maybe cram it between a couple heavy hardbacks. Keep it always; a memento of one of the few times Hollywood managed to get a King flick right; and of the time some psycho tied balloons to the cars in the Showland parking lot.

Tiny · Sep 12, 2017

Thanks for answering me every one.

one more SERIOUS question.

do I understand...Pennywise is NOT a spider in this movie . this was left out...

is this true, ...this would be a deal breaker
