      Though, I hope not, because, if so, then, I’m about to Drop an Atom Bomb size ***SPOILER*** onto one of Cinema’s greatest little urban myths. One, that’s been around since i was a wee wittle munchkin, mysef! PLEASE **Stop reading*** But if you wish, continue, and lose a little bit of childhood innocence. You’ve crashed through every roadblock I’ve put in place so, why try and stop you, now?
      Get ready then, for the most anticlimactic sex, no, wtf, that’s not what I meant to say - just, NO! The silhouetted outline of what looks very Munchkin’esq, hanging from a rope deep in the dark woods, far from the security of the yellow brick road. Is no other than, (claims) MGM, an exotic bird, slowly walking around the back of the massive set. Probably some type of a Stork or Crane. If any Munchkins were back in those woods, trust me, they were comfortably sleeping off a hangover.

      Jon155 you’re mathematically wrong. It is very rare to die in a modern combat scenario. You are 2000x less likely to die while deployed than you are driving yourself to work every day.
      A higher percentage of stunt men and women die than the percentage of deployed soldiers.

    It seems rather obvious why an actor might feel different after playing a character like Pennywise, who is evil, eats children, is supernatural etc and made him really famous overnight? That seems really NOT hard to understand to me. Especially for an actor who gets into his roles.
    Ledger had that issue too. No one is the safest when asleep! That’s when your at your most vulnerable. Clowns don’t scare me at all. Clowns are just humans in make up. But Pennywise is Supernatural so it’s even more different.
    I saw IT Chapter 2 last night. That must have been a really expensive movie to make!

    He did an absolutely awesome job playing Pennywise. I watched IT chapter 1 for the first time a few weeks ago and I absolutely loved the movie. He was the perfect actor to play Pennywise. Pennywise is one of my favourite horror villains now. One of the best horror movies I've ever seen and one of my all time favourite movies now. Must watch if you're a fan of horror movies. Bill Skarsgard, you did an absolutely awesome job as Pennywise and I absolutely loved chapter 1 and I look forward to seeing chapter 2.

      Skarsgård himself was even haunted by the clown after filming concluded. He told Entertainment Weekly, "I was home, done with the movie, and I started having very strange and vivid Pennywise dreams. Every night, he came and visited.

That must've been scary. Pennywise is one scary clown. I'm not even afraid of clowns and Pennywise scares me in the new movies. I actually just rewatched chapter 1 a few weeks ago I think.

    Acting is channeling (allowing something that is not of you, to be a part of you so that you can, for a time, manifest it)... what one channels flows through them, and may be difficult to separate from if the symbiosis becomes familiar, convenient, or endearing for the channel or channeled. It wouldn't be surprising if he's still having dreams and other reflections of that process (relationship).

      Joaquin Phoenix is cast as to play JOKER. If you’re unfamiliar with who that is, take a few minutes to research the amount of talent befitting an actor of his caliber.
      You’ll very soon realize, Joaquin, doesn’t do cheap imitations of a classic character, especially, that of a friends. He’s in a category by himself, and will leave Heath Ledger’s performance, to be remembered by fans of that interpretation of Joker, as the classic it was, forever.
      Now, it’s Joaquin’s moment to leave audiences feeling, in my opinion, unsettled, and wondering what the hell just happened to me. Ledger was quite physically shocking, whereas, Joaquin, will be quite mentally disturbing.

Eventually, after waking up alive so many times, I just killed him the next time I saw pennywise as I knew it wasn't real. No more nightmares after that...
