    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.

        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.

                                      Oh yes lol the films were dubbed in English. They played quite often on TV in the 70s.
                                      If you enjoyed the film Watership Down then you should love the book.
                                      I've only seen the original film..pretty sure there was a remake?
