Just saw IT! SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS

[Jenni Roos]

Greetings from Finland, Europe!!! The premier was here today and the theater was full. Some of the audience was dressed like Pennywise The atmosphere was thrilled and excited.

 

[Neesy]

It sounds like 'PERCEPTO'! What William Castle called his process (gimmick) of electrifying some of the seats for his film The Tingler! Hmmm. Tingler sounds a little dirty too. When did we become such hedonists?

I'm still waiting for "Smell-O-Vision"

 

[FXguy]

I noticed that the kid who played Ben did a fantastic job emoting with just expressions, but am I the only one who could not stop looking at his nipples? They looked so weird.

Also, I was sad that none of the kids said, "Beep-beep, Richie," but Pennywise does! People who didn't read the novel would have no idea why the clown would say that.

Another note: It would seem that Stephen King himself is in the universe, as one of the bullies is wearing an Anthrax t-shirt with lyrics from "Among the Living" on it, which happens to be a song based on The Stand...hmm.

And did you notice the two turtle references?

 

[DiO'Bolic]

And they’re homemade pierogies... Pennsylvania Dutch ambrosia.
.

Boy did I get that wrong. Scrapple is Pennsylvania Dutch ambrosia. Pierogies are Slovak transplant ambrosia.

You can still get the screech & sniff cards on Ebay!

the beep beep and the turtle references are the standard nods to the novel for the readers, stuff that wouldn't make any sense to anyone else. i mean what are the odds that the inclusion of "beep beep" would have made a lot of sense just because the losers said it? it's kind of a random phrase.

There is a bit of resemblance between the dark haired woman (Divine?) and the character John Travolta played in Hairspray

Hi Neesy, I think it was the same man/woman who was in the original Hairspray as well!

Watching IT through a hole of glory sounds like it would enhance the film quite a lot! Umm...what's a glory hole?

I quickly googled it when I got home from work. It took me twenty minutes!

I don't know why I assumed that was just common knowledge. Clearly, I run in a different sort of circle than normal humans. I'm so sorry you had to google that!

Resisting the urge to comment on D-Box. Such low hanging fruit!

Our prices in Seattle run around $11 for matinee, $14 for regular, or $20 for Imax.

 

[recitador]

i've got a nice quality, cheap theater near me. 9 for a night showing but i paid 10 because i ordered online to be sure i could get one. i'm trying for an atmos showing next time, so it'll be more in line with what the other theaters charge for a regular show, probably 12 or 13 (which is probably 14 or 15 at the other guys).

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

Not one use of the 'N' word at all. To quote Martha Stewart: That's a good thing.

People are actually looking for this in the film? Jeez...

saw someone who really was disappointed that there was no BJ reference with the leper. considering the whole point of the leper to begin with was eddie's hypochondria it seemed like a strange thing to focus on.

Maybe it'll be in the director's cut......
