    I'm not picky.
    Saw this film a few days ago and loved it. Thought it was much better than the 1990 version (but I still enjoy that one too). I know they could show and do only so much with the 1st film due to it being a TV movie, but this version is definitely better as it's much darker and creepier. It's got more of a Stephen King feel to it as well.

    There are a few turtle references throughout the movie as the novel is connected to The Dark Tower series.

    "Stephen King's novel IT is connected to his Dark Tower universe. The novel has an image of a turtle supporting the earth. A poem explaining this, "See the Turtle of enormous girth/ Upon his back he holds the Earth," appears in both IT and the third Dark Tower novel, The Waste Lands. That book also expands on the idea of multiple dimensions, each guarded by an animal avatar, held together by the Dark Tower in the center, rather like the spokes of a wheel. The final Dark Tower novel, The Dark Tower, features a character named Mordred who, like Pennywise, shifts from human to spider form, and another character, Dandelo, who, like Pennywise, has "deadlights" behind his eyes that will drive a mortal to madness. Stephen King has stated that Mordred is not Pennywise, but that the two may be the same species (in the novel, Pennywise is revealed to be a pregnant female, therefore opening up the possibility for multiple Its) The character Mike Hanlon appears in both IT and Insomnia, which introduces Dark Tower character Patrick Danville."

    Finally seen it..... was good,not scary at all,more of a thriller.

    Kids acted well....the problem for me was when there was a supposed scare,it instantly got taken away for a joke by one of the kids....it cut off to quick.

    Pennywise was done well,scarier and more realistic than the old one.

    The Special FX seemed dodgy in places when he changed into a monster,cheap looking.....


    The kids kept it together in this..so idont hold out hope on chapter 2 with the adults..
