It

I know I know, it's an old movie but a very very good one!!!!

I just finished watching Stephen King's IT!!!!
I've seen it many many times and I have it on tape, but the tapes been destroyed.
So as we were walking in the mall yesterday I went to a CD/DVD shop, just to look around and what did I ran into???? The IT dvd!!!
Ofcourse I couldn't resist and brought it home with me and had to see it again...ofcourse!!!

Is there anybody out there who also likes his movies and books????
I'm a big fan of his work, and right now I'm trying to get all the SK movies that are available on DVD.

I thought the book was pretty good but the film was a pile of crap. As is usually the case with Stephen King (with a couple of exceptions).

Well, I guess we have a different taste in movies than!!!
I think they are pretty cool. One is better than the other, but they are certainly not a pile of crap. I even think that in some cases the movie is better than the book!!!

And now I'm wondering what kind of movies you like Dr Cheese???

I think the book is awesome but I agree with Dr Cheese, the movie was just horrible.

My 2 cents: The book is decent (King did better tho), the movie, for what I recall, is average at best.

I prefer at least Christine, Shining, The Stand (weak ending actually, but good enough), Night Shift, The Long Walk, and probably something else I don't remember right now.
"It" just didn't grasp my attention much, it was entertaining but not breathtaking.

Some of my favourite movies are:

Godfather 1 & 2
Apocalypse Now

I never liked the end of It (book or movie). Okay, a clown with balloons in the sewer is creepy, yes. A giant spider is not. And a giant celestial turtle is just sort of dumb. Can't Steve-o King just stick to scary stuff without trying to make it the history of the cosmos?

his endings tend to suck from time to time. storm of the century was good because it had joe from wings in it.
