IT: Welcome to Derry

Glad this is getting good reviews. Have it waiting to watch on the Sky box, but will need to watch on my own. The Mrs has a clown fear and refuses to watch it, or re-watch the two film remakes.
 
Enjoying it so far!

Curious to know how much of the film crew and sets etc that were used for the films are being used on this? The series does seem to be a very close recreation of the movies (meant in a good way!)
 
Finally watched the season finale. Ep3 was a let down with the silly Ghostbusters type ghosts in the graveyard, but holy hell the rest of the episodes made up for it - excellent series. Not really comparable to Stranger Things aside from the fact it's centred around the children. No way Welcome to Derry is family viewing!

I've read and watched a lot of Stephen King, but it wasn't until the final episode it twigged, Dick had the Shining and he was the dude from the Overlook! Loved that.

"Go and see Rosa's friends" - i take it this was a nod to Rosa Parks?

Can anyone explain the ending? The hanged girl, who was the girl, who were the couple and why did the dude elbow the girl?!

Loved the Pennywise origin story and i thought Pennywise was fantastically creep and manic, i also thought the CGI was spot on. The dagger/iced river battle was epic. Marge was equally Derek Turnbow epic.

Loved the show and people who whinged about Stranger Things, "None of them died, wah!" - go watch this :)

Watched them all, read the books etc - when they came out and watched a lot of stuff since then! The vid posted earlier was useful - just watched :)

Surely you recognised the ginger girl then and her abusive dad elbowing her? It’s her Mum who hung herself. You’d know from the film :p
