Natalie: "they're all going to have a crush on Beverly"
Book readers: you have no idea!
I was just thinking the same thing 😁
All Aboard!!
We don't speak of that.🙊
Even Stephen King has said he regrets writing that part.
😂😂😂 Beverly "LOVED" Them All.
I worked on this movie. It was a blast and pennywise looks just as freaky walking around on set as he does on film lmao.. Love your reactions..
What did you do on set?
I heard about that. Lol. There were pictures and clips i think, that went around of him in between takes, just chillin, bein creepy, and freakin people out. Power move. 😂
Ey fellow movie guy! What did you do on the movie? (I’m a cam op/AC in tv/film)
@@shanewilliams35 lowly locations guy lol
Hmu on Facebook
The kids who IT took didn't come back, sadly. They're still dead. They're just no longer missing.
In the books, the knife-wielding bully is the one who's blamed for all the murders. Nobody ever finds out about IT.
I think this film version's sequel also has the bully take the blame.
As a stutterer, I can say that Jaeden Martell knocked it out of the park! Stuttering is an annoying problem, and this film perfectly captured it!
My wife said exactly the same thing
@@ArgentLeftovers Great minds think alike!
The irony in Georgie's line "Bill's gonna kill me" is that the actor who plays Pennywise is named Bill Skarsgard
So Bill really did kill him
Stephen King’s IT was wayyyyyy worse
Also Bill, at the end of the movie, does shoot "Georgie" in the head to "kill" him.
Just to clear my doubts- Is this the correct use of the word irony? Because I don't get how this situation is ironic unless the name you expected was exactly opposite to Something like Bill.
@@justintime7343 The book? Oh yeah, Quality is way worse.
@@michaelshrek1199 It's dramatic irony which has a slightly different definition. "a literary technique, originally used in Greek tragedy, by which the full significance of a character's words or actions are clear to the audience or reader although unknown to the character."
Richie has one of my favourite lines in the entire movie. "...and now I'm gonna have to kill this fucking clown."
I love how they set up that line too. It was great
The depiction of Beverly in this movie does a great job. You hear so much about how people want strong female characters, but when they aren't perfect, they get picked apart. Beverly is extremely flawed. She's not perfect. She messes up and has internal conflicts, but she's strong. She overcomes her challenges, and really shows how well-written characters have many dimensions.
Unfortunately she’s ruined in the 2nd movie
One thing I absolutely HATE is the "Gurl power!" Mary Sues. IMO Beverly isn't like that, and thank god for it.
The battle whine of "There are no strong female characters, we gotta make some! Waah!" makes me want to rip my hair out. Beverly was great. So was Ripley and Sarah Connor. So was Smilla Jasperson and Dana Scully, Veronica Mars, Ofelia in Pan's Labyrinth. There are so many that just have me going googly-eyed like a little kid - but there is so much hysteria to make abominations that are men in women's clothing, or neutered paragons of perfection that make my guts cramp.
@@ninjanibba4259 Why? Because she has damage she has to work through?
@@jkknight9209 no, cuz she’s the most bland character that has only a little to go through, Bill and Richie went through more than her and the 1st movie EVERYONE had the most to go through
Beverly is basically just along for the ride when her character had more depth than that in 1, that’s a problem
What's scary about Pennywise is not just the fear he induced on the children for cycles, but the way he had a hold on the parents and grown-ups of Derry as well. He gave the kids an environment where they rarely feel safe and couldn't go to their parental figures for help.
"They all going to have a crush on Beverly"
Having read the book I'm glad they left it there.
Yeah, me too XD
They had to, there is no way that moment could ever be put into film. Stephen King said he regrets writing it.
I've legit read comments complaining about the omission because it wasn't true to the book and I gotta say that there's something really wrong with those people -_-
@@AlessaParker didn't know that!! Serious wrong indeed.
W-what happens in book?
Even though Stephen King's stories are about supernatural monsters, demons and ghosts, many of them are actually more about how evil humans can be.
I've always found the grown ups in Derry far scarier than Pennywise.
At least Pennywise is honouring his nature and what he's meant to do
even in classic horror stories the monsters tend to represent the worst things about ourselves and the dark side of humanity
I felt that the film really downplayed the abusive nature of Beverly's dad, and the suffocating nature of Eddie's mother. Not to mention the ongoing menace of the psychotic bullies.
I think it's because Pennywise was influencing the grown ups in some way. I forgot exactly how but they might be controlled by him and that's why they are all horrible disgusting people except for maybe Bill's parents
Pennywise shows a lot of Lovecraft's influence on King, even though he was cocked out of his mind when he wrote it.
The projector jump scare REALLY gets a lot of people, including me, especially because I was in a cinema completely immersed
It got the kids, too. In terms of filming times, the projector scene was the first time the actors actually saw Bill in full Pennywise makeup. Their reactions are genuine.
one of the only scenes i’ve ever audibly screamed over LOL
That scene had the entire theatre screaming in fear. That was sooooooo awesome lol
@Frogger get mad
yeah it got me, especially since i watched this on imax
One of the things about this story is that Derry itself is a character. The town just churns through the people living there, and the ones who make it to adulthood are the ones who never had much imagination or morals. That’s why no adults end up not taking any of the kids seriously or turn away even when they see messed up things happening. The town itself also pushes kids like Henry Bowers to go further than they normally would.
"These aren't bullies, they're violent criminals". No, as an 80's kid, that was period accurate. 80's bullies were uh...no joke. Yeah. Us nerds had to travel in groups for safety.
I graduated in '87. Yeah. lol
Truth.
As an '80s and '90s kid, can also confirm. Never anything that terrible and I was big and tough by the time I hit puberty, but potentially expected rocks, knives, getting thrown down hillsides. Never any guns thankfully. And I lived in a moderately well-to-do area.
and i doubt it's gotten better, it's just a bit harder for those psychopaths to not get caught
@@kuivia They all grew up to be cops :P
So, the thing is, Nat, that the "sequel" was because IT as a story consisted of two timelines in the entirety of its book. One portion following the Losers Club as kids, and another for when they had to come back as adults.
Yep and the original film mixed the two timelines which made it a bit boring (to me). I'm glad this one (these two) separated them.
Well, the original miniseries was staying truer to the book in that regard, but I agree that separating them (mostly) felt like the better call, since it allowed making each storyline feel like its own complete work.
It's not really timelines if it's 1 timeline.
@@maniac7770 the worst parts of the book were the grown up parts anyways
You're right about IT eating fear... in fact, Stephen King has featured creatures that "eat" emotions in several of his books... In addition to fear, there's one that eats laughter, and there's one that eats suffering, but they are parts of other stories, although Kings stories are all interconnected (and not just through the Dark Tower books). There's lots of references to characters from The Shining in this book, and there are several other books set in Derry that reference both the events of this movie and of "the sequel" (which is just the rest of the book, since they only told half the story in this movie).
He doesn't really eat the fear, he just says it makes their spirits taste better
I remember loving Richie so much and then loving him even more in the sequel. Like my fave tbh.
"If one of the kids has to die can't it be Richie?" Holy shit, savage.
She's fresh off game of thrones lol
@@rhyssanders9122 No one should ever go full Cersei/Daenerys...
She became more savage after watching Game of thrones lol
richie was one of the best characters. that foul mouthed little fucker killed me haha.
@@Nami-po7eg Go away troll.
The one book is two parts and extremely long. This is only part one. The movie didn’t “set up for a sequel.” They are just following the book. And in part two, it explains and makes sense why there are two parts. It's definitely worth watching after watching the first. Otherwise, it's like watching half of Lord of the Rings and saying, "I don't really feel like I need another movie."
Thanks for this, I was going to say this.
Naw... the adult stuff is really weak. It may continue the theme of childhood trauma, but it's literally just a rehash of 1, only done worse. Also with one of the most bizarre musical cues I've ever heard in a film. It feels like an editing mistake.
The final confrontation is also pretty disappointing
@@Eidlones Even if I agreed with you, it doesn't change the fact that it's still a continuation of the same contained story, not merely a sequel. It, for the most part (akin to the first), follows the one book written by King. Whether or not one part of a story is weaker than another, is it fair to the author and screenwriters to only watch and judge based on parts or its entirety? Certainly, though, I'm no movie critic. So my question is purely philosophical.
@@Eidlones The point is that the movie didn't "set up for a sequel," both the kid and adult portions are two parts of one novel.
@@cloudshad0ws And that in the book you have a present chapter, a past chapter, a present chapter, a past chapter, being the past the things that they are remembering as they go to Derry, find each other and all that.
richie is and always will be one of the best characters. i really love the cast in it chapter 1 and 2. also, the kid who plays henry is actually like the most lovely australian actor/tiktoker and on tiktok he makes videos of himself making cocktails lol. anyways, such a good movie, i love it so much and im glad you enjoyed it!
TRUST US NAT, YOU NEED PART TWO!!!!!! It's always been said that this story was more about friendship than horror, and honestly it really does it justice in both part 1 and 2. It's just a bonus that the horror is so good too! Gotta remember that it's not a sequel, but the same story broken up into 2 parts as it was intended. Can't wait to see you react to part 2 hopefully!!!
It’s rare to see such friendship and character development in horror movies (cause they usually die straight away) so this movie is a really nice change of pace. You should really watch the second one, I think it holds up pretty well as a good sequel and it’s an interesting conclusion to the kids’ story.
Not as good as the TV series, but DEFINITELY nothing to throw in the garbage!
It's sad that we only have a week left of Spooktober..
Yes-------------
I read your comment and a second later got the notification that you're streaming right now xD
Yeah but slapsgiving is right around the corner!!!!!!
Then it's Christmas time!!!
Halloween was so sad last year, no Trick or Trickers in my entire town. Covid shut it down. This year, weather looks nice (its gonna be freezing cold but not rainy)
My favourite part of the book was the implication that every 27 years, when IT rises, something strange happens to all of the adults.... they get meaner. They go blind to all the shenanigans, lost in their own little madnesses leaving the kids no defence
The blood covered bathroom was also in the book but the book came out 1986, while Nightmare on Elm Street came out 1984. So there might be the chance that King took some inspiration.
Even though the two Parts are quite long, they let out a big part of the book, where you really grow into these characters.
Also, love your reactions, true, heartwarming and entertaining. Thank you.
The thing I love about IT and IT 2 is the way they portrayed friendship and growing up. It was so beautifully done o cry every time.
To me, the horror is secondary to that.
My thoughts exactly.
Same with the book. The horror part adds a bit of spice, but the friendships is what makes me re-read the book every five years or so.
Yeah this is a nice movie to watch even with the horror aside! It's my favorite horror movie
There is no horror. These movies were not scary at all. Which was a shame.
The “Thats assault with a deadly weapon!” Part made me cackle laugh 😂
Natalie: "well I guess they have to set up for a sequel"
book readers: Part one is only half the book!!!!
IT is such a comfort movie to me. i was 13 the first time it first came out, the same age as the kids. i was going through some problems at the time with my parents and the portrayal of adults and them hurting or not understanding the kids was just so perfect. friendships have always been very important to me and seeing these kids beat a killing clown, the adults, their bullies and everything together as a group, made me believe and realize how i could do so too. this film really has a big place in my heart.
"They're all gonna have a crush on Beverly"
Oh boy!
She probably shouldn’t read the book 😬
@@ALJ9000 yea...
What happened in the books? 👀
@@pedrouchoa472 all of the losers club have sex with Beverly in the sewer
@@pedrouchoa472 they all had sex with her on the way back from the sewers if I remember correctly
(p.s. consensually)
Solid hero’s journey where brave AF kids conquer their most horrific and intense fears. The disturbing imagery and concepts serve a purpose. 9/10

Low-key the scariest part of this movie was Beverly's relationship with her father
I LOVE your first-kiss story. Thanks for sharing and great job sticking up for yourself! And I died laughing at your jump scare edits at the end.
“Oh no, not Eddie. I love Eddie.”
probably Richie
yeah, that's definitely richie for sure
What do you mean probably? That's totally Richie
Yeah, they never really went too deep into it in the adaptations. IT is actually an evil creature from another galaxy/dimension that crashed here in an asteroid thousands of years ago. IT feeds on fear, eats and then hibernates.
I know the turtle would have been too weird for the films but I do really miss it.
I think the reason this story isnt as scary as others is because theres more focus on the characters and their story as opposed to other horror movies where they’re more focused on trying to scare the audience
"You can't just carve your name in to somebody."
You keep me on the straight and narrow, Natalie.
I can see where you're coming from on the story concluding nicely where it ended, but they're not so much setting up a sequel in the traditional movie sense as just telling the other half of the book, which includes when they come back. In the '90s miniseries they did flashbacks and personally, I think separating the kid and adult sections works better narratively.
I suppose the issue of splitting them up is it seems like the first part would have worked as a self contained story.
Okay, to clear things up, fear is like salting a meal, for Pennywise. He can still eat people without it, but he'd rather have it there because it makes the meal taste better (which is also why he targets kids more, because they get scared more easily and their greatest fear are things he can transform into). So the kids that were floating were kids who weren't afraid of him and he had therefore, not bothered to eat because they wouldn't taste as good (it's also why he spares the characters for so long, because he's trying to torment them so much that they taste incredibly good to him), but Georgie was already slightly creeped out when he met Pennywise, then got his arm ripped off and he was absolutely terrified, so he was killed on the spot and didn't get to see the deadlights (the lights that Pennywise showed Beverly to make her float).
Also, the reason they set up a sequel is because the original book and mini-series both followed the characters as kids and as adults, intertwining the two stories whereas the movies decided to separate them as kids and as adults, so the sequel was already a given before the first movie had even been released, because unlike other movie series and franchises, the story would legit not be complete without the sequel.
Well, Nat, I hope you get around to part 2 soon. It's actually a very clever sequel in the way it's told. More things get explained, characters get closure, there's some more "sombre-ness" to be had. Plus, it's the "other half" of the book, so the story isn't quite over just yet.
This is legit one of my favorite movies ever.
It's no masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination but it just has a little bit of everything I look for in a movie - good characters, scary/intense sequences, humor, and somber/emotional moments.
Watching it in the theater (August 2017) with a full crowd is one of the best moviegoing experiences I've had
this film isn't really a _remake_ of the Tim Curry film. It's just a newer adaptation of the novel. In fact, it's the first theatrical adaptation of the novel since the Tim Curry film was just aired on TV.
"These bullies are not like bullies"
Trust me, bullies (especially boys) can be incredibly vicious. Mine were like that, often threatening to cut me with knives outside of school.
Yeah, especially back in the day. While this was on the extreme end, it's definitely not unrealistic.
I'm sorry you had to deal with that.
Honestly, this movie gave me flashbacks to being a kid in the 80's. The bullies acted similar to the ones in the moves, the adults didn't care because they saw it as a problem the kid had to deal with. It was a very different time, but the movie captured it very well.
I still think about the older kids holding a gun to my 9 year old forehead and asking me to give them three reasons why they shouldn't pull the trigger. It's really scary to confront the fact there are no reasons anyone shouldn't kill you. Especially before your 10th birthday.
Stop demonizing boys. Female bullies are just as brutal.
Nat, you are great and the editing for your videos is fantastic (great work Cameron!). Lots of competition in the reaction space and you are one of the reactors that gets the most interest when I see a reaction to a movie/show I have seen. Keep up the great work!
I'm surprised Natalie took Georgie's death pretty well.
Right? I expected her to cry. I did 😭
After GoT and a trailer, I’m not surprised
@@alcyonae let's show her Berserk.
Dear god, I was SO shocked when I saw Bill Scarsgard for the first time after watching this movie and looking at its cast. I never expected real Pennywise to be so young (and pretty too, let’s be honest). That man is an amazing actor❤️
Plus, he can drift one eye, intentionally. A useful skill! 😆
He's pretty tall as well, which added to the contrast between him and the kids.
Can’t believe you’re watching this…though Bill Skarsgard’s performance was outstanding and the kids were also great, so I guess you’ll appreciate the acting. Hopefully that makes up for the nightmares…
Yes th-cam.com/video/3w19SAl1OBQ/w-d-xo.html may I ask what movie called in video
I watched this on plane on a overnight flight... fun times
@@TheMrBugio 😱😭
Tim Curry was better
@@ty_the_RetoVideo_guy5543r LOL nice one.
I love your reactions vid. They’re always so upbeat even when you’re terrified 😅.
Natalie: 'You can't just carve your name into somebody.''
Aldo Raine: “Yes you can. Not the name but.... Swastika yes ..if he's nazi”
Based quotes lmao.
"Oh I doubt Bill's gonna kill you."
Well, not THAT Bill.
it took me a second to get this lmao
Watch chapter 2 too, Nat! It's important to the story and really closes the arc in a relevant way 😊 and I'd like to see your reaction to it 😀
this brought me back to my 2017-2020 IT phase where me and my friends watched these movies religiously. they were actually comfort movies for one of my friends and they watched both at least 10-15 times each
I would highly recommend watching part 2 as well. It brings everyone's stories full circle and it tells the full story that Stephen King wanted to portray with this book. Not to mention the acting in part two is fantastic with a legitimate star filled cast.
When I was 8, my neighbor friend rented Demons 2 and we watched it in broad daylight, middle of the summer. We were so scared that we spent the rest of the day outside but were still so paranoid that we literally had weapons pointed at each other in the off chance that one of us turned into a demon like in the movie. Smh to this day, I get nauseated when I smell outdoor grilling in the air because of that association.
Part 2 is the 2nd half of the book, when they are adults. I definitely recommend giving it a watch to close out the story!
Watched all your reactions to the marvel movies & now I’m onto your horror section but I finally decided to hit the subscribe button I think you’re quite a unique person
"It:Part 2" is not so much a sequel, but a continuation of the book. I highly recommend seeing it asap after this instalment
I really hope we get “the conjuring” before October is over
The Conjuring in a packed theater was one of the greatest cinematic experiences of my life across any genre
Natalie: "They're killing It with friendship!"
Me: "And karate..." :)
For everyone
@@gking2709 Stage freeze!
Richie was probably my favourite character for both part 1 AND 2
I'd really like to see you do part 2 because it's 😭
None of the other kids survived, they just came down because his magic of making their corpses float was gone after he left
To be fair, in the 80s my friends and I would pretty much just toss our bikes down anywhere too without thinking about it, and we didn't live in a small town. Maybe we were all just jerks with bikes back then. Excellent reactions though, looking forward to part 2.
I went through a HUGEEE IT phase in 2019 so I’m hyped for this
This was a fun one! You should consider doing part 2 now for the full story. The novel bounces back and forth between when the Losers' Club are kids vs. adults, so it's not really a "sequel" per say, but the other half of the story.
who would’ve thought a horror movie would become my comfort movie
Pennywise isnt a clown, that is just its favorite thing to turn into, but it can shape shift to many things( and pennywise is a she)
Wait what?
@@averyofhousejade1176 IT is actually a shape shifter, pennywise is its favorite to shape into, that is why we see IT shape into many things, like Georgie, and the crooked face lady, ITS true form though is a spider, which is why we see him using some sort of crag like arm thing to try and kill Mike towards the end, Pennywise is its favorite form because kids both love and hate clowns, if they love them, Pennywise can lure them in, if they hate them, pennywise can use that against them.
@@anonymousstudios2002 Sorry let me rephrase. "Pennywise is a she." Wait what?
@@averyofhousejade1176 So basically, IT is a spider as I said, and At some point IT ended up laying eggs because IT is pregnant, and only female spiders can do this.
Here are some words in some articles that are about this topic
"Throughout the novel, IT is generally referred to as male; however, late in the novel, the characters come to realize that IT is most likely female, due to its true form in the physical realm being that of a giant pregnant female spider."
"Throughout Stephen King's It, Pennywise is referred to as a male, but author Stephen King pulled a fast one on readers in the book's ending by revealing the creature's true form was a pregnant spider, implying that it is, in fact, biologically female."
But again because it can shape shift, it chooses the Male clown Pennywise
I want a reaction to the 1990 version!
Next time yes
Me too!
I don't want nightmares 😭😭😭🥺
I still prefer the 90's version , Tim Curry is fantastic as Pennywise
Yes
Honestly one of my favorite movies because after the first watch and you know what is coming it becomes an a amazing coming of age film that just happens to have horror/thriller elements
I can't believe how huge your channel has gotten! I subbed back when you were watching LotR trilogy and you've grown so much since then. Absolutely incredible, super happy for you!!
Nat literally went: "let me sing you the song of my people"
The meme is real
I wouldn’t call it a remake, but a new adaptation. Love the reaction
"omg they're all gonna have a crush on Beverly"
i watched this movie when i was 15, i also had a crush on beverly, so yeah
The scene with Henry killing his father was so chilling, but like... imagine being a kid recording that scene for the TV, and chanting "Kill them all" while crowded around this terrifying murder clown...
Fun fact, the pennywise costume was kept completely secret from the kid actors so that the first time they saw him was in the haunted house scene to make there reaction more real
The movies are great. The whole premise of the novel is that it's more upsetting, uncomfortable and disturbing more than scary.
Really looking forward to you watching part 2!
the second one is just as good and i would love to see you react to the next film!
as always, love your reactions
I watched both It movies back to back at last years spoopy season and really liked them both. People trash the second one, but since I watched the old miniseries the new version is definitely an improvement on the second chapter. I love the mini-series kids part as a child myself and really hated the second chapter.
Another great atmospheric spooky movie is Doctor Sleep, that is a sort of sequel to the Shining.
Doctor Sleep is such a great movie, not that much of a horror. I think it would be labeled as horror 30 years ago.
Whenever I hear the name Georgie, I always think of George Costanza's mom on Seinfeld!
"Georgie! Don't eat with your hands! Why do you eat so fast? You can't even taste it! You're wearing that shirt? You've had it for five years already! Why don't you buy a new shirt?!"
OMG! Natalie has gotten so resilient!
Great video! Can't wait for part 2... and i almost died laughing at 10:19 and at 31:43. One of my favorite reactions of yours! :D
“If one of the kids has to die, can it be Richie?!”
YOU WILL NOT KILL RICHIE 🤬
This is probably my favorite horror movie because there isn't scary stuff just for the sake of it and it represents real-life struggles. I'm pretty sure there are more movies like this, but I hate horror movies, so XD
Yea there's definitely better horror movies out there
@@dawarrior95 Yeah, thought so XD But oh well, maybe one day XD
It was my first horror movie that I watched in a cinema more than once. I spent first time half of the film watching my knees (even though I watched 1990 film in preparation), and then went 2 more times because of the cast. Then I slowly read the book, and at one point with Ben almost threw in into a wall, I was so scared, and afterwards I was just heartbroken and set in silence for 4 hours, crying inside. Steven King is ingenious
Can't wait for part 2 🤗
Never been able to watch this myself, thanks for watching this so I can watch it with you and make it less scary for me, also having it edited is nicer too
The Adventure of Sharkboy and Lavagirl 2005- Full Movie HD what your opinion
@@ozoapapnews3339 I remember loving it as a kid, though my brain combined that movie and spy kids 3d, for some reason. So I thought they were the same movie for a while.
you should really watch it. It's pretty good. Just turn off the volume if you get too scared.
@@becauseofobi-wan3543 It's not just sound, I really can't handle horror. Like this video itself was almost too much for me
I grew up with a stammer that turned into a stutter through speech therapy. I speak better now but from time to time it comes back if I'm not paying attention. I bring this up to say that Bill's actor did an amazing job at portraying a stutter so much so that everytime I watch this movie it takes every bit of self control I have to not slip back into it.
Luv your reactions. You're the only person I would tolerate talking in a movie theatre
if you ever feel like rewatching this spend time watching the backgrounds and scenery throughout the movie and try to find every pennywise cameo. From background characters behaving strangely, red balloons, art/graffiti changing or revealing a hidden clown within, and even his glowing eyes pop up. See if you can find them all.
I thought this movie was so scary. Then in 2019 I watched it for the first time ever and honestly I fell in love with the movie?! I was and still am obsessed with both parts. I know it’s weird to say but this movie is one of my comfort movies and I cry not because I’m scared but because I’m sad it’s over. I love your channel and now I’m excited to see what you think of it. btw I’m 15 now so I was like 13 years old when I watched it 🥰
Are you ASKING or TELLING? Dint use question marks at the end of statements.
The book does a better job of making you see why there should be a "sequel", since it kind of interweaves the stories of the kids with their adult selves.
I read the book right before seeing this movie in the theater. Both were entertaining. My favorite part of both is the fact that adults don't notice any of the weirdness in the town. It's something I never noticed as a kid in the original made for TV movies.
The scene where Ben is in the library reading about the Easter explosion, you can see the librarian watching him in the background in a super creepy way like it’s actually pennywise watching him
This is one of my comfort movies lol I watch this in the dark at 3am when I can't sleep
@@ocelot815 yes 😂 It Chapter 2 as well lmao
As you correctly suspected, IT feasts on fear and since kids have a very vivid imagination and feel more intensely than the more jaded adults IT likes to target them.
You also correctly noticed that there's "two horrors" going on, that of the supernatural entity of evil and the very real everyday evil that humans do. The book is chock-full with subplots of regular people being just as big of a monster as IT is, to a point where it kind of comes into question wether IT negatively influenced the people of Derry or wether the people's own moral abysses laid the perfect ground for the monster's home. Probably both.
IT's origins are quite mind-blowing anyway (without wanting to spoil too much of the book it actually does have to to with "crabs", well more like spiders, and turtles). The films never fully touch on it but the Sequel will dabble in it a bit.
But yeah in the book IT had a borderline symbiotic relationship going on with the morally bankrupt inhabitants of Derry. It's a surprisingly psychological work given that most people only know it for the killer clown.
And the other side of that coin is that, at its heart, IT's essentially a coming of age story about childhood, friendship, love, trauma, nostalgia, adulthood, life in general...it's like the horror is almost just a backdrop to that. It's honestly one of the greatest books I ever read and this adaption pleasantly surprised me even though it can't touch the sheer scope of the novel.
Which also touches on your "setting up for a Sequel" comment since in the book the children and adult stories are actually heavily intertwined and paralleling, so you can't really tell the story of IT without either of these parts. In this case they decided to make a clear cut between these two halves of the story and put them into two seperate films but the adult bit is very much needed.
Looking forward to seeing your reaction to that too. ^^
It's basically Stand By Me, but with a killer clown in it.
I'm a huge fan of the books and i liked this one, but i loved chapter two. i would not recommend watching at night though lol. One of the most unsettling thing is how much the adults ignore or just straight up don't care. and you get more of the kids in ch 2, fills in some spots, and it's just Very Intense. so hoping you do chapter two at some point as well! this is my first video i've seen of yours but i like your reaction style
I love your videos, and you do not know how much..
i legit spent all night watching you react to movies
especially your reaction to IT (my fav)
I know 3 bucks isnt much
and i apologise about that..
Anyways, Enjoy my poor donation! (lol!)
This is the one, Nat. This reaction has made you my favorite reactor ever. I think it was your singing along with Stan while he was reading the Torah. But you clawed your way to #1 on my list.
I'm so glad you watched this, it's one of my favorite Stephen King books and this movie was an incredibly skillful and faithful adaptation of the book. Chapter 2 was disappointing to me, it was way too long and not as scary. It's still worth a watch, though.
Chapter 2 took far to many liberties with the story and themes.
yeah, the only thing that i liked about the second one was all the reddie moments and it being confirmed that richie and eddie were in love with each other. everything else sucked though
I just love your edits, that judge bit was ...... gold.. ha!
New subscriber and I have been enjoying your videos, keep up the good work.
