>Will Poulter was originally cast as Pennywise by Fukunaga, but dropped out due to scheduling conflicts when filming was delayed due to Fukunaga being replaced by Andres Muschetti.

>Mark Rylance, Ben Mendelsohn, Kirk Acevedo, Richard Armitage, Hugo Weaving and Tilda Swinton were considered for the role before Bill Skarsgard was cast.

fuck he would've been perfect. cary's script sounds better too. what could've been...

>It appears to Stan as a nude woman who is beautiful from the waist up and horribly decomposed from the waist down, and attacks him while masturbating.

>>87671600
Half of that stuff is retarded as shit. Sheep rape? Jizz cake? A copy of that scene from The Shining with the naked woman?

His script was shit, see for yourself
https://m.sendspace.com/file/8xxtpu

>>87671600
How did this guy botch his momentum coming off True Detective? He should have had his pick of projects.

>>87671718
The reason he wasn't cast was because he could do menacing but wasn't great with the clown stuff.

Mendelsohn dropped out of running due to money.

>>87672109
He did. IT was his ticket to the big leagues but he was unwavering in including those edgy sex elements despite complaints from Warner and the kids' parents, and got booted.

>>Henry Bowers rapes a sheep, cums on Eddie's birthday cake (which the Losers eat) and kills Belch under Pennywise's influence.

What the hell. I like It now.

>>87672109
He is in the middle of reviving Stanley Kubrick's Napoleon biopic. He also has a show with Jonah Hill and Emma Stone coming out soon.

>>87671600
also don't forget, in the original script, it all takes place in harlem.

>>87671619
I never really understood why Will Poulter was originally picked for the role of Pennywise.

>>87673424
Fukunaga wanted Pennywise to look childlike. Also old world and freakish. The new director kept all those ideas.

Well damn I guess the production hell was worth it, that sounds fucking abysmal.

>>87671600
That sounds like kino, I disliked the finished project but that script sounds like it has potential.

>>87671600
>>87671619
Thank FUCK none of this actually happened and we saw the final product
This shit would've been terrible in his original vision

>eddie's cast is changed from "Loser" to "Lover"
>the writers didn't think to have Eddie make it "Loser's Club"
jesus christ how incompetent are these people?

The birthday cake and the sheep never happened in any version. You're going off he said she said.

>Henry Bowers rapes a sheep
Explains his weird "baaaah"-ing as he's looking down at the Losers

>Patrick is a pyromaniac
Explains the whole lighter shit from earlier.

>Firecracker fight was the original idea
Explains the odd rock fight sequence.

The original script was shit, but are there any other interesting remnants from it in the final product?

>>87671600
Some of these changes were for the better.

>>87671600
But was "that scene" in it?

>>87673991
>Explains the odd rock fight sequence.
The rock fight happens in the miniseries and the book.

I liked the Starfish form at the end. Do we glimpse his final form at all in the actual movie? I heard a while back you get a brief glimpse of his spider form, but haven't seen it mentioned since then, so maybe bullshit?

>>87674175
Actually yes, sort of. You get a POV shot from Bev putting her hands on the cheeks of each boy one after another. So yeah, it happens, but you don't see it.

>>87671600
>Mike's grandfather tells him about the fire at the Black Spot and how it appeared as if something was controlling the mob.
>The Losers build the smokehole and Bill has a vision of It's first encounter with primitive humans.
Both of these scenes will be in Part 2 although they are changing it to have Mike hallucinate by himself because he's become a drug addict later in life and that is when he will have a vision of It landing on earth

>>87671600
Jesus christ this is all SHIT, thank goodness it was all scrapped

>Bill doesn't stutter
>Henry Bowers rapes a sheep, cums on Eddie's birthday cake (which the Losers eat) and kills Belch under Pennywise's influence.
>The Losers build the smokehole and Bill has a vision of It's first encounter with primitive humans.
>Eddie's encounter with the Leper happens off-screen.
This all sounds incredibly retarded. The sex stuff just sounds like Fukunaga trying to imitate King's style but failing miserably. I believe wholeheartedly that writers should try to make a story their own when they adapt it, but this just misrepresents some bits while omitting other important ones.

>>87675408

That would've just looked more goofy than anything else.

>>87672385
Not to mention Fukunaga wanted to film in New York whereas New Line wanted Toronto because it was cheaper and he wouldn't budge. He also didn't budge on the budget which was apparently quite high.

>>87672865

Nah, budget was always at the $30 million range.

It's one thing to try crank some stuff up to ELEVEN but a lot of this just borders on tasteless if you ask me

It still would have suffered from the same type of SPOOK JUMPSCARE LOUD MUSIC shit

No one gets that you can make a scary scene with real impact without that

>>87675664
Yeah, because the dance part was not corny at all...

>>87675408

i would love to see henry's orgasm face as he rapes sheep and as he cums on cake. nicholas hamilton is so handsome.

The contrarian damage control about this movie was hilarious at first but now it's getting a little sad. Defending the original miniseries was cringe enough but this Fukunaga bullshit is too bad even for /tv/

>>87677175
No, she spreads girls legs, which is not the same

>>87677082
Not an argument

>>87675408
No, having Georgie's corpse would just come across as tryhard. Bringing up Georgie to fuck with Bill was done way better by just saying "Am I not real enough for you?! I was real enough for Gerogie!".

>>87677617
>>87675408
>>87671600
>chasing on all fours with georgie's corpse on back

seeing a person on all fours chasing you is scary. seeing handsome boy on back twitching limply is arousing.

>>87677617
Pennywise just pushing Georgie to the water was great too

how do people know this script is real, and not some fake bullshit put together by an autist?

>>87671600
>>Beverly has a mother who is obsessed with Beverly's menstruation. Her father also tries to molest her after finding Ben's letter.

I heard his script was supposed to be great. What the fuck are some of these elements and what's with added unnecessary shit like "Bev's mother"?

>>87678876

I was just bored and you were the last post in the thread. I hate my miserable life.

Anyone else think Idris Elba was perfect to play Pennywise?

Why do people get so mad when someone tries to do something new? What's the problem with not doing the same fucking thing?

>>87673424

He played a pretty good bad guy in Detroit.

Also, Tim Curry wasn't really what you would call "scary". Just...exotic. Poulter is kinda weird looking. Bill Skarsgaard is kind of in the same ballpark too.

The cinematography in It was similar to Cary's as well.

The 80's setting was Cary's idea too. It seems like a lot of the main ideas in It were kept on board by the new director.

>>87677617

I dunno. The thing with these details is that we don't know how FunkyNigga actually planned to shoot them.

i don't get why get handsome actors (poulter, skarsgard) when face will be completely covered by clown makeup. or is there a scene where pennywise is shown without makeup?

but does the actor's face matter when it will be completely covered by makeup? or, as i asked above, is there a scene where pennywise is shown without makeup?

Stupid as fuck. When you overexplain something it always gets ruined. Keep Pennywise as a misterious monster clown not a character with a social id number.

I'm glad we got a good IT and not this shit Cary Shittynaga wanted.

>"I made many concessions to stay on the film. But I wouldn't budge on the handling of a certain controversial scene in the book. My original casting call for Beverly asked for a 15 or 16 year old actress whose parents were okay with her being topless. The producers were furious when they found out. I told them I will not compromise my artistic vision over their prudishness."

This Cary fella sure does like the edgy side.

>>87671600
this script just seems like he put a bunch of edgy shit in there to be edgy. none of the details like this actually matter in the story or further it in any way. a lot of this shit is just plain pointless, too. what's the point in the losers eating a jizz cake other than to shock the audience? there's just no reason for shit like this.

Sorry Mr. Fukaknocka. Showing a 16 yr old's boobs hasn't been allowed in theaters since American Beauty (1999). The social media collective would be a huge shitstorm if that were to happen today. Imagine making a movie and hiring the "Cash Meh Ousside" girl to go topless. Just doesn't work today. 4chan of all places would plaster the topless 16 year old scene from IT allover /b/ and the mods wouldn't know whether to ban you or not. It's a different time now.

America in that regard is prudish as fuck...
Depending on the scene, it can be okay imo.
it's not like they're insinuating sex, right?

>>87689549
Except that Beverly is a sexual character, and the nudity probably would have been associated with her father attempting to rape her, or the boys staring at her during a swim or a sunbathe or something.
Didn't know there were sixteen year old boobs in American Beauty. Never saw it. Kind of want to read up on that. I wish she still lived in an age like when Brooke Shields posed nude. Pubescent girls are meant to be admired.

I really like that actually. If you stayed in that fucked up town you'd need some kind of substance to keep you from killing yourself.

>>87679095
There's an idea where Pennywise barters with a settler woman for her infant in exchange for sparing her other children. Kind of a callback to the "deal" he gives the Losers after grabbing Bill.

>>87690154
Exactly. That's the main reason he was an integral part of "The Losers" because he had a stutter and was made fun of.

>>87682352
You get Bowers fucking a sheep and jerking it onto a cake but the gangbang in that script wasn't even implied. It was just Bev holding each of the Losers' faces with her hands.

>>87682796
>This was a cool detail
More like "completely integral to his character" as the whole point of the stutter was to show how Georgie's death was affecting him.

>>87690393
>It was just Bev holding each of the Losers' faces with her hands.
Oh, I bet that's where the boobs came in.

>>87689207
It makes sense from a narrative perspective. Ben is the new kid, he spends all his time in the library, and his obsessed with architecture. Going through the history of his new town at the library makes sense. He'd naturally stumble onto a bunch of weird shit going on in Derry and take an interest.

>>87684720
What a pretentious cunt. Just say you wanted to see some barely-underage tiddy and move on with it

>>87689722

>>87690748

That's true but taking it from Mike left him with very little to do outside of dealing with Henry.

It doesn't want to eat you unless your flesh is flavored with fear.

Alternatively, if It is just a dumb space creature that thinks the only way to generate Adrenaline is Fear, maybe the kinky clown sex angle would work.

Beverly is pure!

Fuckyounigga's script had some stuff that was interesting if nothing else like the lake being It's maun haunt, It's "true" form being a tentacled lake monster, Vic drowning in spiders, etc. but ultimately Muschietti's version exceeded expectations and our timeline took the right turn for once.
