The 90s mini series is a favourite of mine and I've seen it dozens of times.
What did you think of the two movies.

The book is the best way to experience the story. The 90's TV movie/miniseries is noatalgic, and for being made for TV, it was pretty good for the time. Tim Curry is great as Pennywise. One thing I hate about both adaptations is they separate the kid and adult parts. The adult 2nd half is always not as good. The book had flashbacks within the story. It's more intermingled.
I think as far as the movies go, I prefer the newer 2. Better acting, less censored… not sure how I feel about switching the 50's to the 80's.

Is it true there is an orgy in the book.

Yeah, I get what King was trying to go for, but that could've been left out lol. It was supposed to symbolize the transition into adulthood and ****, but it's just one of those times King's cocaine habit led to bad choices.

Are you one of those people who thinks Animal Farm is anti-communist, or correctly knows it's more pro-Trotskyist and anti-Stalinist?
Though, Orwell was a ****ty socialist and a ****ty person.
