It's shit like this that makes my life worse as a Eurasian because even if you look amazing you're still a subhuman because Asian women happily marry guys who look like they've been in industrial accidents over an Asian guy. It makes Asian looking males look like the worst fucking losers on earth. The guy is absolutely offensive to look at. Like his face literally makes my stomach churl because he's so ugly. I'd even be mad if he had a white girlfriend People feel they have the liberty to say of course your dad is white. Because white guys see shit like this where some fucking quasimodo looking freak can get Asian girls and they use it as ammo as to how shittyy asian guys are...
How did that show survive for so long. Billy is the most obnoxious cartoon character ever. He's worse than Jar Jar. And Mandy isn't a great character either.
I have heard so many parents curse that name with a hatred like they're cursing the dictator that terrorised their South American country throughout the 1980's or something.
A girl that has a reaction that's a mixture of apathetic/annoyed for every situation they encounter, sure it's funny contrasting against Grimm but it gets old. Oh and she's evil and will become a monster if given ultimate power. That's about it right
Unpopular hot take: It was a bad movie and the director deserves it for pumping out this terrible cash grab designed to exploit 80s nostalgia and the popularity of Stranger Things
Really? Based on the box office take at least it seems popular. I havent bothered reading reviews though since Im enough of a pretentious twat that I can find reason to hate anything thats popular on my own.
I mean, the directors of Stranger Things made Stranger things after being rejected by the studio for the It remake, so it would be really hard for the movie to be created in response to the thing it indirectly helped create unless some sort of time machine fuckery is going on.
Also, the movie is good. It IS an overwrought jumpscarefest, but it does it so well that I honestly forgot I was watching an overwrought jumpscarefest.
Tell me of another movie where SPOILERS a bunch of kids beat the living shit out of an asshole clown.

I really found it kind of boring at not particularly interesting. I felt like they needed to cut down the number of characters on screen because they clearly didnt have time to really develop or make us care about any of them in the nearly 150 minutes of screen time they had. Like, the scene where the very stereotypical bully jumps Mark at the top of the well? I could fucking care less, Mark had like five minutes of screen time up until then and it was almost exclusively dedicated to explaining who hes just another horror movie cliche. If he died I wouldnt have cared, same with all the other kids. Its as if the writers just relied on the cliches each kid was based on (the fat kid, the sickly kid, the Jewish kid, the wisemouth kid, and the stuttering and a weak willed nerd who overcomes all that to be their leader) to inform us of who the characters were rather than actually writing and developing them. Then they just packed the movie full of crummy jump scares about a murderous clown(I appreciate that Stephen King is probably the originator of this particular cliche, but at this point in time you really need to do more since its been done to death already).
It was wonderful production values over a flimsy and poorly written script. The movie felt more like a remake of Do The Right Thing but with all the things that made me give a shit about the characters replaced with some crappy jump scares of a clown who spent way too much time on screen to really be scarey.
Which of course is why the moved the segment of the book that took place in the 60s forward to the 80s and cast the kid from Stranger Things and then loaded the movie up with slightly modernized versions of 80s cliches. Cause the book! Right.
The Day the Clown Cried is an unreleased 1972 American drama film directed by and starring Jerry Lewis. It is based on a script of the same name by Joan O'Brien, who had co-written the original script with Charles Denton ten years previously. The film was met with controversy regarding its premise and content, which features a circus clown who is imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp. Lewis repeatedly insisted that The Day the Clown Cried would never be released because it is an embarrassingly "bad work" of which he was ashamed.
library of congress got a print a few years ago with the understanding that it wouldnt be screened until 10? years after lewis died, now that hes bit it im sure it will leak eventually
If you think about, Ronald McDonald has put more people in an early grave than Pennywise ever could. So why don't they blame ol' Ronald? The guy even has a whole house where he infects children with cancer and shit.

The Transformers movies are all terrible, yet people keep watching them, so they keep making them.
1 Thhueros 2017-09-18
It's bad just for continuing the trend of ruining scary scenes by adding a super loud "BWWAAAAAAAAH" each time.
1 ALoudMouthBaby 2017-09-18
I loved that part of the movie it was so freaking overwrought and it showed exactly how smart the filmmaker thought his audience was.

Get some rest, Pam, you look tired. BWEEEE BWEEE
1 die_rattin 2017-09-18
Wasn't even necessary, tbh. Is a main character alone? Does the scene last more then thirty seconds? Then creepy clown shit is going to go down.

Wow, I brain farted hard while writing that. I meant another King movie taking place in the summer time with a cast of kids, Stand By Me.

The fucking book takes place in the 60s and 80s you retard.
1 DeathBahamutXXX 2017-09-18
Yeah a couple of people at my old job thought It was a remake to the miniseries with Tim Curry and had no idea it was a book.

1 Arsinoei 2017-09-18
The original series was based in the 60s and 80s too.
I rewatched it recently. The ham & cheese acting made me squirm.

I thought that huge circus company closing down earlier this year would've been the reason for them losing business.

Clowns know that people already hated them though, right?
Also who the fuck are these people taking Little Johnny to see IT and then asking him if he wants a clown at his birthday party?
1 Hydrium 2017-09-18

Hopefully the clown industry can go back to losing business just because it's 2017 and there's still a clowns are still a thing for some reason.
