Yeah, but IT is already 2 hours 15 minutes. They couldn't put an extra 5 minutes in there for something to separate the movie from the tagline to My Little Pony? Hell, even if it was something as a simple as "the belongings IT's victims had on them at the time they were taken can be used to burn/hurt/wound IT" which is why IT collects them (along with the bodies) in IT's lair. Like have them keep the pink shoe they found in the sewer. In the house Beverly stabs IT through the skull and IT just grins at her. Then Richie throws the shoe at IT and busts ITs nose, making IT bleed and retreat. Like that.

the way studios are they probably had to fight for it to be as long as it was. they had a lot to do, so i can't blame them for lightening the concepts a little bit.
He's a very good looking guy.other things i learned from these videos: the guy who plays henry is australian, and has a thing for bill skarsgard. i can't blame him.

Yeah, i've been digging him since the hemlock grove days. Here's to him becoming ridiculously famous and always in the eye of the camera
I like how the Standpipe features in the love triangle. First Ben carries a model of it when he meets Beverly. Then he sends a postcard of the Standpipe (a hint to their last day of school encounter?) with the poem. And then it's the meeting point for Bill and Bev on their date.
Bowers didn't burn down Mike's house. He said that whenever he walked past he was sad - sad that it wasn't him who done it (or something to that effect).
I think the answer to that is actually deeper. When the Losers are talking about their fears in the shadow of the Paul Bunyan statue, Richie says his greatest fear is clowns. I think IT was hurt more by the lack of fear from the Losers rather than any physical damage. Bev's stabbing does less damage because she was never as afraid of IT as Richie was. When Richie turned his fear into anger (no Jedi can he become, I'm afraid), it gives him greater power to harm IT.
I think that was just Richie being Richie.
I thought the same thing ... I didn't hear clearly what Bowers said about the fire, but I thought it was something like that. I probably assumed it was a replacement for the book's revelation that he killed Mike's dog, but I thought Henry would have been a little young for such a major arson job. I've seen someone else say he said he wished he did it ... that makes more sense.
And yes, I would not send my kids into Keene's for drugs.
So, did he die in the fall? It kind of felt like he should have but I'd expect him to be back for part 2. I know he got lost in there in the book and it took like three days for him to emerge by which time he was batsh*t crazy (if he wasn't before), but I don't remember him taking a spill like that.
No, in the book Victor and Belch were killed, but he was spared to take the blame for all of the killings. I would expect him back in Part 2 ... it would be easy enough to retcon that IT saved him from the fall. I did find it interesting that Victor and Belch weren't involved in the ending at all.
Am I also the only one wondering how Henry got so bloody at the end? I know he just killed his father, but I didn't recall him looking like that after he did it. It almost felt like a continuity issue, like something was shot and cut from the movie between those scenes, but I've only seen it once, so may have missed something.
Does feel like there should be a nice fat director's cut for the DVD release. Here's hoping anyway.
If there is I hope it's 3 hours long, I didn't want this movie to end.
I'm fairly sure that Bowers said he wished he'd been the one that had set the fire rather than saying that he actually had done it (could be mistaken though). I took the fire as a nod to the horror of the Black Spot.
I think you are correct.
