Was half-thinking about seeing it tonight, but I got very little sleep last night and I probably should get some more before I drive anywhere. You know how that goes. Anyway, I hear that It is excellent, which is nice; Stephen King movies can be a little hit or miss sometimes.
I do wonder who they’re going to cast for the adults in the sequel — and since the movie had a 120-125 million dollar opening weekend, it’s going to get a sequel — and whether they’re going to be well-known or not. I’ve been reading arguments either way on this today, and I don’t know which I prefer, either. Although I wish that we had had the foresight to stick Harry Anderson in a cryogenic vault so that he could reprise his Richie Tozier role. Shoot, it might have even worked out better for Anderson that way.
They need John Boy in it in a cameo.
Wait, the movie only does the first half of the book?
Sorta. It does the kids’ story now, then the adults’ story will be in the next movie.
