Was wondering if the scene where bev has sex with the club will be in the movie. My guess is no bc it wasn't in the first one and as a society we r even more sensitive to that now than when the 1st movie was made. Wondering if any knew for sure

Let's hope. I'm not saying it was a gratuitous scene but it just makes me uncomfortable. I think the "blood brothers" scene would be enough to explain that part of the novel.I'm betting it won't be in there as written...maybe there will be something of a more symbolic nature?
...no, not gratuitous....never seen King cheat his readers in that fashion...it was an integrally uncomfortable moment....he never professed to being a fan of a soft sell in a plot point....Let's hope.

Ok, how about this...they can put it in the movie but sped up and with this music:...no, not gratuitous....never seen King cheat his readers in that fashion...it was an integrally uncomfortable moment....he never professed to being a fan of a soft sell in a plot point....
Even those who aren't prudes, I think, may have reservations about watching prepubescent children have sex together...in a sewer of all places, lol.I doubt that it will. It doesn't propel the plot of a movie. It does in the book because we read their thoughts. Can't really do that in a movie. I can hear the cries of "kiddie porn" from the prudes if it were.
...brilliant!!!!!....Ok, how about this...they can put it in the movie but sped up and with this music:

There was an article on this very question last week:
'IT': Don't Expect to See Stephen King's Controversial Sex Scene - Bloody Disgusting!
...oh for God's Sake!...nobody is going to include child sex in a movie(if they know what's good for them).....I just don't get the whole hullaballoo of re-hashing this, and King having to explain his thoughts or creative process....he hasn't been in the business of writing "feel good" books....so what?.....it makes people uncomfortable......many book scenes do that.....it's still remains an integral part of the plotting and wasn't written in a lascivious way....it's a dead topic......let it go....
