>new "It" movie
It is actually the first movie considering the other superior version was a mini series.

>>80172063
I'll believe it when I see it, there has never been a good movie adaptation of a Stephen King novel.

>>80172120
It wasn't faithful to the books and it wasn't scary. Anyone who enjoys the miniseries is just indulging in feel good nostalgia

Show me the gangbang and I'll apologize.

>>80172133
>implying the langoliers isn't the greatest film ever made

>>80172063
King also liked the Shining miniseries better than the movie.

You can't trust in the man's taste.

>books
What?
There was one book and it was depressing as hell. I liked the mini series much better.

if it's really good then ill apologize.

I was disappointed when Cary Fukuwhatever wasn't going to be involved anymore. between that and the kid actors getting in fights with banana man Amazing Atheist I assumed it was going to be a shit show

I don't trust Stephen King's word. Peeps who've seen it say Pennywise does switch between a jovial jolly voice and an evil one. Apparently Pennywise doesn't suck like people have been hoping. If you hate his costume you hate his costume of course.

>>80172133
1408 fuck you.

>>80172063
I have a lot of respect for King as an author; he can shit out a readable book in 6 months and occasionally he writes good books
But when it comes to film adaptations of his work, the man's an idiot though I agree with what he said about The Shining

>>80172162
>It wasn't faithful to the books

This is true, I expect to see kids fucking in this new one. You gotta be faithful.

he liked the mists ending so good nuf for me

>>80172063
Stephen King also likes Idris Elba as Roland. His endorsement means less than a whore's promise to me.

>people are actually pretending a remake of an iconic horror movie
Yeah Nightmare on Elm Street 2010 was real great oh so was Rob Zombie's Halloween! /s

Less than six months and still no trailer. Not even teaser. This is rather very good or very bad.

>>80172469

Does he really. I doubt it. That's totally different. He's a liberal and he's scared to say Idris Elba is all wrong. Roland is blatantly a white character. and yes it's part of his character.

but, if he's not covering his ass over PC shit, I'll accept that he likes a movie about one of his books

No Idris Gunslinger movie is getting a cent of my money though

Trailer fucking when?

>>80172390

You all keep asking for this, but it's not going to happen. Best we'll get is the leper scene.

>>80172063
>>80172256
>Stephen King apparently likes new "It" movie

Gee I wonder why. Wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that he's making money from it, would it?

>>80172477
I did like the first half of the Halloween remake tho. I liked that you actually saw a bit of why Micheal is crazy and more of his back story, rather than just have Dr Loomis running around screaming about how dangerous he is.

>>80172704
Net worth 400 million and do a small research and you will find out he doesn't really care about money.

>>80172325
Does anyone have a recomended reading list for King's stuff?

>>80172787
The Dark Tower series
and the book versions of the most famous films based on his books

I wouldn't hold out for a proper list because /lit/ hates him if I recall correctly.

We're getting Javier Botet as the leper, that's been confirmed from casting and leaks.
>you will never see the Losers run a train on Beverly Marsh while covered in shit and piss in the sewers

besides frank darabont, depalma's carrie and the 90's shining miniseries, does he actually like any of his adaptations?

>>80172704
he's criticized plenty of films based on his works that he technically profited from.

>>80172787
Desperation and the regulators was pretty good.

Salem's lot used to be good, but in later printings they spoiled the fucking book by advertising that it was all about fucking vampires

Dark tower is pretty good but 7 books long

The stand

They're going to do some reshoot scenes in next month

>>80172063
>A newly-updated listing on the very often reliable website My Entertainment World has just indicated that filming will begin March 17, 2017 on the second film, under the secret title Accordion. One might ascertain that this means the first film is undergoing some re-shoots before the release later this year, but the plot listed certainly indicates otherwise…

>A promise made twenty-eight years ago calls seven adults to reunite in Derry, Maine, where as teenagers they battled an evil creature that preyed on the city’s children. Unsure that their Losers Club had vanquished the creature all those years ago, the seven had vowed to return to Derry if IT should ever reappear.

>The filming location is listed as Toronto, Canada, where the first part was also shot.

>>80173170
But everything does suck.

>>80172640
Stephen King has also walked back "that" scene from the books, saying if he knew what the political atmosphere vis a vis child sexuality was going to be like, he would never have written the scene.

He's a wimp and a coward, and a well-padded one at that.

>>80173107
Is that Barron Trump?

>>80172133
>there has never been a good movie adaptation of a Stephen King novel.

That is kind of hard to achieve when the source material is shit.

>>80173179
Cool beans.

>>80172264
>it was depressing as hell.
What's wrong with that?

So I trust they kept the part where they ran a train on the litter girl in it?

>>80173433
>they ran a train on the litter girl in it?
Who are you to say what gender she identifies as?

>>80172133

>>80173598
That's because it deviated from the source material.

>>80172133
Misery is pretty good

>>80173636

Don't be. His script was shit.

>Changed names for no reason

>IT was a clown almost the whole time
>the kids kill IT the first time by melee attacking it with a bunch of tools from one of the kid's garage

>>80172960
Misery maybe?

It's going to feel underwhelming considering Stranger Things was an homage to IT and I bet a lot of people will be saying King's miniseries ripped it off. You know for a fact they will.

>>80172063
Stephen King didn't like the shinning and then made a very bad mini series about it. I don't trust him.

>>80172063
>Author who will receive a cut of the gross profit claims to "like" the film, urges readers and non-readers alike to see it in person

There are several things wrong with this statement and I'm not sure how to go about unpacking it all.

>trusting the taste of stephen king

this is a man who wrote HIMSELF into a fucking novel

>>80174499
He's clearly upset because he doesn't have an ice cream cone. It's the premise of the entire picture. He's even holding his hand out as if he's holding an ice cream cone to telegraph it. You'd know that if you weren't distracted by the 13 year olds in bathrobes like a fucking creep.

>>80172063
>King hated Kubrick's The Shining

King is a pleb who can write 400 pages every, that's the only reason people pretend to respect him.

You understand it's not only the source material which makes these two film great?

>>80172267
what a fucking pleb, fuku 's script was ass and hes shit in general. true detectves(which is the only good thing he has) was carried mostly by the 2 leads. the overrall plot is pretty boring

Sorry this industry is so garbage that it needs to make a reboot of fucking "It"

>>80173040
All of these, I'd also say Duma Key and Revival.

>>80174187

But anon, the film The Shining is shit.

Although I am willing to concede it's because I fuckinn despise jack Nicholson as an actor

>>80172063
Stephen King is a fucking hack who doesn't understand a single goddamn thing about true cinema.

Get out of here with your plebesterian bullshit.
